The results showed that the increase of calcium concentration in the nutrient solution increased the activity of H + ATPase and the phospholipid content, decreased the activity of Ca 2+ ATPase and the galactolipid of plasma membrane. Owing to the decrease of linolenic acid content, the index of unsaturated fatty acid (IUFA) and index of double bond (DBI) decreased in Altas66. The IUFA and DBI of plasma membrane from Scout66 roots increased because its linolenic acid content increased obviously and its palmitic acid content decreased apparently.展开更多

Tartary buckwheatgrowing in acidic soil may suffer from Al poisoning. Here, we investigated the influence of Al stress on the growthof tartary buckwheat seedling roots, and the alleviation of Al stress by silicon (Si), as has been demonstrated inmany crops. Under Al stress, root growth (total root length, primary root length, root tips, root surface area, androot volume) was significantly inhibited, and Al and malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulated in the root tips. At thesame time, catalase (CAT) and ascorbate peroxidase activities, polyphenols, flavonoids, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) free-radical scavenging abilitywere significantly decreased. After the application of Si, root growth, Al accumulation, and oxidative damage wereimproved. Compared to Al-treated seedlings, the contents of ·O2− and MDA decreased by 29.39% and 25.22%,respectively. This was associated with Si-induced increases in peroxidase and CAT enzyme activity, flavonoidcompounds, and free-radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS). The application of Si therefore has positive effectson Al toxicity in tartary buckwheat roots by reducing Al accumulation in the roots and maintaining oxidationhomeostasis.展开更多

The results show that AA7003 is to a certain extent susceptible to SCC via anodic dissolution(AD) at open-circuit potential(OCP) and is highly susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement(HE) at high negative Ea in the solutions with p H levels of 4 and 11. The susceptibility increases with negative shift in the potential when Ea is less than-1000 m V vs. SCE. However, the susceptibility distinctly decreases because of the inhibition of AD when Ea is equal to-1000 m V vs. SCE. In addition, the SCC susceptibility of AA7003 in the acid chloride solution is higher than that in the alkaline solution at each potential. Moreover, the effect of hydrogen on SCC increases with increasing hydrogen ion concentration.展开更多

Electrochemical impedance technique and scanning electron microscopy were used to analyze the surface electrochemical states and the corrosion morphology. At the same time, corrosion kinetics and thermodynamic theory were used to analyze the influencing mechanism of the stress factor and the galvanic factor. The results show that both of galvanic factor and tensile stress factor can increase the corrosion potential of aluminum alloys and result in the corrosion resistance decrease. With decreasing corrosion resistance, the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys decrease. These phenomena are attributed to two reasons: One is that aluminum alloys may under the condition of anodic polarization after coupled with 40 Cr Ni Mo A steel, so the corrosion can be promoted; The other is that with increasing stress, the electrochemical potential of 5050 aluminum alloys decreases and the potential difference between two materials increases, so the corrosion becomes serious. Compared to the stress factor, the galvanic factor is significant.展开更多

The residual stress not only results in machining distortion and dimensional instability, but also increases the possibility of stress corrosion cracks. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the residual stress to an acceptable level. The crack compliance method was adopted to study the influences of various stress relief methods on residual stress patterns in 7050 aluminum alloy. The results show that 90% residual stress can be eliminated by the cold stretching(Tx51) method. And a lower level of residual stress can be achieved by the uphill quenching(Tx53) method or the cold compression(Tx52). However, there is a very steep residual stress gradient normal to exterior surfaces.展开更多

The SCC susceptibility was estimated with the loss of the reduction in area. The experimental results indicate that the SCC susceptibility of 7A52 aluminum alloy in 3.5% chloride solution is the highest at strain rate of 1×10-6 s-1. The lowest one is under the condition of 1×10-5 s-1. Stress concentration and anode dissolving around Al-Fe-Mn intermetallics initiate micropores which will result in microcracks. The existence of intermetallics in the microstructure may play an important role in understanding the SCC initiation mechanisms of 7A52 aluminum alloy.展开更多

Test results show that the joints of aluminum alloy 2219, welded by hybrid welding processes, have superior resistance to stress corrosion compared to those welded by the VP-TIG welding process in varying degrees, especially, the joint welded by the laser HF-TIG hybrid welding process, where the resistance to stress corrosion is almost the same as that of the base material. However, the HF or laser hybrid welding effect is not significant under the same welding conditions for welded joints of aluminum alloy 2014.展开更多

With the help of FEA (finite element analysis) software ANSYS, a model was developed to simulate the thermal stress distribution working condition of an inert anode. To reduce its thermal stress, the effect of some parameters on the thermal stress distribution was investigated, including the anode height, the anode radius, the hole depth, the hole radius, and the radius of inner chamfer and outer chamfer. The results showed that in the actual working condition of an inert anode, there existed a large axial tensile stress near the tangent interface between the anode and bath, which was the major cause of anode breaking. Increasing the anode height and reducing the hole depth properly seemed to be beneficial for the stress distribution. With the increase of anode radius, the stress distribution became better first and then deteriorated, the reasonable value was between 0.045 to 0.06m. The hole radius had a significant effect on the stress and a smaller radius would reduce the thermal stress. The effect of the radius of the inner chamfer and the outer chamfer was less than other parameters.展开更多

The results indicate that residual stress decreases by 30% with increasing quenching water temperature from 40 ℃ to 80 ℃, 20% with increasing aging temperature from 100 ℃ to 180 ℃,and 20% with increasing aging times from 5 h to 25 h. Also, residual stress decreases to zero with increasing pre stretching amount to approximately 2%. Hence, residual stress in 7075 aluminum thick plate is reduced by the control of quenching water temperature at 80 ℃ and with pre stretching amount of about 2%. An optimal aging temperature and time should be systemically investigated to obtain combination of high mechanical performances and lower residual stress for manufacturing of 7075 aluminum alloy thick plates.展开更多

The results show that flow stress is related to the Zener Hollonom parameter Z and strain, as well as the static recrystallization fraction between passes during multipass hot deformation of 5182 aluminum alloy. Hence, a modified exponential flow stress equation was presented by considering the values of ln A and β as functions of strain, and by using the uniform softening method and incorporating the static recrystallization fraction between passes to consider the effects of residual strain during multipass hot rolling of 5182 aluminum alloy. The validity of the equation was examined by a typical non isothermal multipass deformation test.展开更多

By using X-ray diffraction technique and mechanical test method, aluminum alloy with typical fine sub-grains, coarse recrystallized grains, and second phase was analyzed; the interactive mechanical model between grains was built for analysis of variation of internal stress within the local micro structure by imitating the actual distribution of grains. The experimental result shows that the mechanical model can effectively explain the reason for fluctuation of microscopic stress, which also proves that the inhomogeneous distribution of metal organization is the cause for the complex distribution of microscopic stress. The model can well describe stress distribution of thick plate caused by thermal deformation. Besides, it well describes mechanism of stress fluctuation.展开更多

The stress corrosion cracking(SCC) susceptibility was estimated with the loss of elongation and stress corrosion sensitivity index. The results show that the susceptibility of 7A52 aluminum alloy is always high when the strain rate is in the range of 10-5-10-7s-1.It reaches the maximum at the strain rate of 8.7×10-7s-1,and the sensitivity index reaches 0.346. The characteristics of stress corrosion can be observed clearly on the fracture of tensile specimen. The process of SCC is depicted according to the fracture morphology. The SCC initiates at the edge of the specimen. Then the SCC grows rapidly because of the anode dissolving and stress concentration. When the area of specimen cannot support the tensile stress, it ruptures suddenly. The secondary cracks and quasi-cleavage surface can be found on the fracture morphology.展开更多

Compared with traditional strain-based forming limit diagram(FLD),it is more convenient and practical to use as the criterion of forming limit under complex strain paths. The forming limit of 3A21 aluminum alloy sheet was tested and its forming limit diagram(FLD) was determined. Then the FLSD of 3A21 was constituted by transformation formulas between limit strain and limit stress. This FLSD was used in conjunction with LS-DYNA finite element simulations to predict the onset of fracture and limit forming pressure in tube hydroforming. The results indicate that the fracture often occurs in the transition region between corner and straight side of the tube,and the limit forming pressure is 46.4 MPa. The simulation result agrees with the experimental result,and the FLSD is able to predict the forming limit of tube hydroforming with remarkable accuracy.展开更多

The results indicate that restraint condition is the main factor that determines whether or not hot cracking will occur. With rigid restraint hot cracking (crater cracking) will occur at the arc-stopping end, and such cracking usually will not occur without external restraint. But under restraint-free condition it is easy for terminal cracks to occur.展开更多

The stress and strain finite element analysis of anodic bonding can optimize the structure and process design, reduce the workload of the experiments, shorten the production cycle, improve the bonding quality, and reduce the process costs. In this paper, residual stresses and deformation in the static bonding two-layer (glass/aluminum), three-layer (glass/aluminum/ glass),five-layer(glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass)and seven-layer (glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass/ aluminum/glass) samples have been analyzed using nonlinear finite element simulation software MARC. The simulation results show that the shear stress distribution and deformation distribution in different multi-layer glass and aluminum samples are similar. The stress distribution along thickness at different typical positions in all multi-layer samples has characteristics of pulse pattern, which has pulse peak at the position of transition layers and then decreases abruptly to the minimum value at the positions of glass and aluminum. The maximum shear stress is located in the outside surface area in the transition layer between the top unconstrained glass layer and aluminum layer. The displacement distribution along thickness in all multi-layer samples increases gradually fi'om the constrained bottom glass layer to the top unconstrained glass layer with abrupt step increase in the aluminum layers, The maximum deformations occur in aluminum layers. It is found that the minimum deformation distortion and the minimum shear stress occur in the three-layer static bonding sample.展开更多

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the level of vulnerability to stress in workers exposed to aluminum. The correlation between vulnerability to stress and depression was also investigated. This was a retrospective study that included 135 participants, 99 were exposed to aluminum, and 36 were not exposed to aluminum. Vulnerability to stress and depression was assessed using a self-rating scale developed in-house. Vulnerability to stress was reported in various degrees in a total of 84 participants, 69 (69.70%) participants from the exposed group and 15 (41.67%) participants from the control group. Out of the 84 participants with vulnerability to stress, 51 had depression also. Excellent resistance to stress was reported in 51 out of 135 participants, 30 (30.30%) in the exposed group and 21 (58.33%) in the control group. Out of the 51 participants with excellent resistance to stress, only 2 participants had depression. The results of the present study suggested that exposure to aluminum is correlated with vulnerability to stress. The level of vulnerability to stress is increasing with the level of exposure to aluminum. Furthermore, since vulnerability to stress is correlated with depression, higher exposure to aluminum might be a risk factor for depression.展开更多

The results show that the larger the grooving angle of butt joint, the higher the residual tensile stress. Too small grooving angle will lead to dramatic differences due to the amount of welding bead filler metal and pre-set joint geometry. Therefore, only an appropriate grooving angle can reduce residual stress. While welding, weldment in restrained condition will lead to a larger residual stress. Also, a residual stress will arise from the restraint position. The ultimate residual stress of weldment is determined by material yield strength at equilibrium temperature. The higher the yield strength at equilibrium temperature, the higher the material residual stress. Because of its larger thermal conductivity, aluminum alloy test specimens have small temperature differential. Therefore, the residual tensile stress of all materials is lower than their yield strength.展开更多
文摘Effects of calcium on ATPase activities, lipid contents, and fatty acid compositions of plasma membrane from wheat roots were assayed under aluminum stress. The results showed that the increase of calcium concentration in the nutrient solution increased the activity of H + ATPase and the phospholipid content, decreased the activity of Ca 2+ ATPase and the galactolipid of plasma membrane. Owing to the decrease of linolenic acid content, the index of unsaturated fatty acid (IUFA) and index of double bond (DBI) decreased in Altas66. The IUFA and DBI of plasma membrane from Scout66 roots increased because its linolenic acid content increased obviously and its palmitic acid content decreased apparently.

The results indicate that residual stress decreases by 30% with increasing quenching water temperature from 40 ℃ to 80 ℃, 20% with increasing aging temperature from 100 ℃ to 180 ℃,and 20% with increasing aging times from 5 h to 25 h. Also, residual stress decreases to zero with increasing pre stretching amount to approximately 2%. Hence, residual stress in 7075 aluminum thick plate is reduced by the control of quenching water temperature at 80 ℃ and with pre stretching amount of about 2%. An optimal aging temperature and time should be systemically investigated to obtain combination of high mechanical performances and lower residual stress for manufacturing of 7075 aluminum alloy thick plates.
文摘A series of simple axisymmetric compression tests were carried out on the computer servo controlled Gleeble 1 500 machine when strain rates ranged between 0.05 25 s -1 and deformation temperature 300 500 ℃. The results show that flow stress is related to the Zener Hollonom parameter Z and strain, as well as the static recrystallization fraction between passes during multipass hot deformation of 5182 aluminum alloy. Hence, a modified exponential flow stress equation was presented by considering the values of ln A and β as functions of strain, and by using the uniform softening method and incorporating the static recrystallization fraction between passes to consider the effects of residual strain during multipass hot rolling of 5182 aluminum alloy. The validity of the equation was examined by a typical non isothermal multipass deformation test.

文摘The research on fluctuation and inhomogeneity of internal stress of aluminum alloy thick plate is theoretical and technological base for stress control technology. By using X-ray diffraction technique and mechanical test method, aluminum alloy with typical fine sub-grains, coarse recrystallized grains, and second phase was analyzed; the interactive mechanical model between grains was built for analysis of variation of internal stress within the local micro structure by imitating the actual distribution of grains. The experimental result shows that the mechanical model can effectively explain the reason for fluctuation of microscopic stress, which also proves that the inhomogeneous distribution of metal organization is the cause for the complex distribution of microscopic stress. The model can well describe stress distribution of thick plate caused by thermal deformation. Besides, it well describes mechanism of stress fluctuation.

文摘The stress corrosion sensitivity of 7A52 aluminum alloy was investigated in the artificial sea water through slow stain rate test(SSRT). The stress corrosion cracking(SCC) susceptibility was estimated with the loss of elongation and stress corrosion sensitivity index. The results show that the susceptibility of 7A52 aluminum alloy is always high when the strain rate is in the range of 10-5-10-7s-1.It reaches the maximum at the strain rate of 8.7×10-7s-1,and the sensitivity index reaches 0.346. The characteristics of stress corrosion can be observed clearly on the fracture of tensile specimen. The process of SCC is depicted according to the fracture morphology. The SCC initiates at the edge of the specimen. Then the SCC grows rapidly because of the anode dissolving and stress concentration. When the area of specimen cannot support the tensile stress, it ruptures suddenly. The secondary cracks and quasi-cleavage surface can be found on the fracture morphology.

文摘The stress-based forming limit diagram(FLSD) established with limit stress is independent of the strain paths. Compared with traditional strain-based forming limit diagram(FLD),it is more convenient and practical to use as the criterion of forming limit under complex strain paths. The forming limit of 3A21 aluminum alloy sheet was tested and its forming limit diagram(FLD) was determined. Then the FLSD of 3A21 was constituted by transformation formulas between limit strain and limit stress. This FLSD was used in conjunction with LS-DYNA finite element simulations to predict the onset of fracture and limit forming pressure in tube hydroforming. The results indicate that the fracture often occurs in the transition region between corner and straight side of the tube,and the limit forming pressure is 46.4 MPa. The simulation result agrees with the experimental result,and the FLSD is able to predict the forming limit of tube hydroforming with remarkable accuracy.
文摘The FE simulation results of transverse stresses and strains during welding of thin aluminum alloy plate are presented. The results indicate that restraint condition is the main factor that determines whether or not hot cracking will occur. With rigid restraint hot cracking (crater cracking) will occur at the arc-stopping end, and such cracking usually will not occur without external restraint. But under restraint-free condition it is easy for terminal cracks to occur.

文摘Residual stresses and deformation of static bonding multi-layer Pyrex7740 glass and aluminum have important effects on performances of bonding parts. The stress and strain finite element analysis of anodic bonding can optimize the structure and process design, reduce the workload of the experiments, shorten the production cycle, improve the bonding quality, and reduce the process costs. In this paper, residual stresses and deformation in the static bonding two-layer (glass/aluminum), three-layer (glass/aluminum/ glass),five-layer(glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass)and seven-layer (glass/aluminum/glass/aluminum/glass/ aluminum/glass) samples have been analyzed using nonlinear finite element simulation software MARC. The simulation results show that the shear stress distribution and deformation distribution in different multi-layer glass and aluminum samples are similar. The stress distribution along thickness at different typical positions in all multi-layer samples has characteristics of pulse pattern, which has pulse peak at the position of transition layers and then decreases abruptly to the minimum value at the positions of glass and aluminum. The maximum shear stress is located in the outside surface area in the transition layer between the top unconstrained glass layer and aluminum layer. The displacement distribution along thickness in all multi-layer samples increases gradually fi'om the constrained bottom glass layer to the top unconstrained glass layer with abrupt step increase in the aluminum layers, The maximum deformations occur in aluminum layers. It is found that the minimum deformation distortion and the minimum shear stress occur in the three-layer static bonding sample.
文摘Occupational exposure to aluminum was reported to be associated with various neurotoxic effects including cognitive impairment, depression, anxiety, and also Alzheimer’s disease. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the level of vulnerability to stress in workers exposed to aluminum. The correlation between vulnerability to stress and depression was also investigated. This was a retrospective study that included 135 participants, 99 were exposed to aluminum, and 36 were not exposed to aluminum. Vulnerability to stress and depression was assessed using a self-rating scale developed in-house. Vulnerability to stress was reported in various degrees in a total of 84 participants, 69 (69.70%) participants from the exposed group and 15 (41.67%) participants from the control group. Out of the 84 participants with vulnerability to stress, 51 had depression also. Excellent resistance to stress was reported in 51 out of 135 participants, 30 (30.30%) in the exposed group and 21 (58.33%) in the control group. Out of the 51 participants with excellent resistance to stress, only 2 participants had depression. The results of the present study suggested that exposure to aluminum is correlated with vulnerability to stress. The level of vulnerability to stress is increasing with the level of exposure to aluminum. Furthermore, since vulnerability to stress is correlated with depression, higher exposure to aluminum might be a risk factor for depression.
文摘This study, taking three types of aluminum alloys 2024-T351, 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 as experimental materials, conducted single V-groove GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding) butt-welding to analyze and compare the magnitude and differences of residual stress in the three aluminum alloys at different single V-groove angles and in restrained or unrestrained conditions. The results show that the larger the grooving angle of butt joint, the higher the residual tensile stress. Too small grooving angle will lead to dramatic differences due to the amount of welding bead filler metal and pre-set joint geometry. Therefore, only an appropriate grooving angle can reduce residual stress. While welding, weldment in restrained condition will lead to a larger residual stress. Also, a residual stress will arise from the restraint position. The ultimate residual stress of weldment is determined by material yield strength at equilibrium temperature. The higher the yield strength at equilibrium temperature, the higher the material residual stress. Because of its larger thermal conductivity, aluminum alloy test specimens have small temperature differential. Therefore, the residual tensile stress of all materials is lower than their yield strength.
