The effects of addition of minor amount of(0.5 wt.%) antimony(Sb) or gadolinium(Gd) and combined addition of Sb and Gd(0.5 wt.%,respectively) on the hot tearing susceptibility(HTS) of Mg-5Al-3Ca alloy were investigate...The effects of addition of minor amount of(0.5 wt.%) antimony(Sb) or gadolinium(Gd) and combined addition of Sb and Gd(0.5 wt.%,respectively) on the hot tearing susceptibility(HTS) of Mg-5Al-3Ca alloy were investigated experimentally using a “T-shaped” hot tearing measuring system. Various solidification parameters of the alloys were measured and calculated through thermal analysis experiments. The microstructure, grain size, and morphology of the crack zone were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction, and the crystal phases of the alloys were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The results showed that the addition of 0.5 wt.% Gd resulted in the increase in the vulnerable temperature range(Tv) and reduced the eutectic structure content that could participate in feeding, thereby improving the HTS of the alloy. However, addition of 0.5 wt.% Sb or combined addition of Gd and Sb(0.5 wt.%, respectively) to the Mg-5Al-3Ca alloy shortened the Tvand improved the skeleton strength of the alloy, thereby reducing HTS. Moreover, significantly refined structure of Mg-5Al-3Ca-0.5Gd-0.5Sb alloy improved the feeding ability of the eutectic structure, thus the alloy exhibited the lowest HTS.展开更多

At the same time, the total number of bacteria in water reflects the degree of pollution by organic matter. In order to count the total amount of bacteria quickly, efficiently and accurately, an improved algorithm of bacteria counting based on YOLOv5 is proposed by introducing deep learning into environmental engineering. Firstly, a K-means++ clustering algorithm is used for the self-built bacteria dataset to obtain priori frames that match more closely with the feature map. Secondly, a small target detection layer is added to the network to improve the sensitivity of the model to small targets in images, finally, a coordinated attention (CA) is introduced after the C3 layer in the backbone network, which can capture not only cross-channel information but also orientation-aware and position-sensitive information to improve the recognition of small targets, which helps the model to improve its performance for dense prediction tasks. Experiments show that the improved algorithm achieves an average detection rate of 93.04% on the test set compared to the traditional YOLOv5 framework algorithm, an improvement of 7.68%, as well as a lower training loss, verifying that the addition of the small target detection layer and the attention mechanism is more effective for dense detection of small targets like bacterial images. The introduction of this algorithm can improve the efficiency and accuracy of bacterial counting, and can achieve high precision analysis of bacterial counts, further deepening the study of the structure of microbial communities, the degree of environmental pollution, and the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, providing strong support for environmental monitoring.展开更多
