Strain hardening behavior of Mg-Y alloys after extrusion process

The strain hardening is an effective mode of enhancing mechanical properties in alloys.In this work,the strain hardening behaviors of Mg-xY(x=1,2,and 3 wt%)after extrusion process was investigated using uniaxial tensile tests.Results suggest that the Mg-xY alloys are composed ofα-Mg with a little amount of Mg24Y5 phase.The average grain size reduces from 19.8μm to 12.2μm as the Y content adds from 1 wt%to 2 wt%.Nevertheless,when Y content reaches 3 wt%,the grain size reaches to 12.9μm,which is close to that of Mg-2Y.The strain hardening rate decreases from 883 MPa to 798 MPa at(σ-σ0.2)=40 MPa,and Mg-2Y and Mg-3Y have the similar strain hardening response.Moreover,Mg-1Y shows an obvious ascending stage after the steep decreasing stage,which is mainly caused by the activation of twinning.The strain hardening behavior of Mg-xY is explained based on understanding the roles of the deformation mechanisms via deformation microstructure analysis and Visco-Plastic Self Consistent(VPSC)model.The variation of strain hardening characteristics with increasing Y content is related to the effects of grain size and texture.

Synthesis and properties of novel organogelators functionalized with 5-iodo-1,2,3-triazole and azobenzene groups

Two series of 5-iodo-l,2,3-triazole derivatives containing azobenzene group（s） were synthesized and their gelling properties were tested. Those containing two azobenzene groups （B series） have better gelation performance than those containing one azobenzene group （A series）. The microstructure of organogels and the driving force of gelation were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and 1H NMR, respectively. It was found that π-π stacking, van der Waals interaction, and dipole-dipole interaction were the main forces of gelation. All the tested organogels are photoresponsive and those from B series are smarter than that from A series. Henry δp-δb diagrams of compounds A1, A2, and B2 were constructed on the basis of their gelation performance and the Hansen solubility parameters of related solvents. The constructed Henry δp-δh diagrams can be used to estimate the behavior of three compounds in any untested solvent.

Noise reduction for temperature-sensitive paint measurement contaminated by strong background radiation in a high enthalpy hypersonic tunnel

The strong background radiation in high enthalpy hypersonic shock tunnels has posed severe challenges for measurement using luminescent coatings.We proposed a solution for reducing background radiation from time-resolved temperature-sensitive paint(TSP)measurement in a hypersonic flow with Ma=6.5 and T_(0)=3525 K.The TSP was applied on an inlet ramp model,and the images were taken by a high-speed camera at 2 kHz under a modulated excitation.The strong background radiation led to a low signal-to-noise ratio and significant errors for the first half of the 130-ms test duration.Accordingly,three noise reduction methods were developed and evaluated based on temporal reconstruction,spatial reconstruction and robust principal component analysis(RPCA),respectively.The RPCA method showed the best performance that successfully recovered high-quality TSP data for a majority of test duration(t≥40 ms).

Jet sweeping angle control by fluidic oscillators with master-slave designs

The fluidic oscillator is an instrument that can continuously generate a spatially sweeping jet entirely based on its internal geometry without any moving parts.However,the traditional fluidic oscillator has an inherent limitation,that is,the spreading angle cannot be controlled independently,rather by the jet volume flow rate and internal geometry.Accordingly,two types of fluidic oscillators based on the master-slave design are developed in current study to decouple this correlation.In both designs,the master layer inherits the similar oscillation mechanisms of a sweeping jet,and the slave layer resembles a steady jet channel.The difference between the two designs is that Design A has a short diverging exit in the slave layer,but Design B adds a long interaction chamber in the exit channel to intensify flow instability.The external flow fields and governing oscillation properties of these two designs are experimentally explored with time-resolved Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV),while the internal flow dynamics and driving oscillation mechanisms are numerically investigated.By fixing the total volume flow rate,the jet spreading angle of Design A can be increased smoothly from 0°to above 100°by increasing the proportion of master layer’s flow rate from 0 to 100%.For Design B,the control authority of the master layer is significantly enhanced by adding the interaction chamber in the slave layer.In addition,the added chamber causes notable jet oscillation even when the master layer has none input.
