过渡金属掺杂的g-GaN吸附Cl_(2)和CO气体分子的第一性原理研究

基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算,系统研究了类石墨烯氮化镓(g-GaN)和掺杂过渡金属原子(TM)的g-GaN对Cl_(2)和CO气体分子的吸附行为。结果表明,Cl_(2)和CO在本征g-GaN上的吸附均为物理吸附,2个体系的吸附能均为正值,表明体系不稳定。相反,Cl_(2)和CO在Fe和Co掺杂的g-GaN上吸附时的吸附能为负值,且吸附能较小,表明吸附体系稳定。通过分析态密度、电荷密度差和能带结构等性质,可以得出结论:过渡金属原子的引入能有效增强气体分子与g-GaN之间的相互作用。

变质改造型关键金属矿——富集Li-Rb-Cs-Tl-Ga的云母片岩

关键金属矿产是国际上最近提出的资源概念,对战略性新兴产业的发展至关重要,但认知程度较低。洛扎岩浆-变质杂岩体位于喜马拉雅带东部,侵位于藏南拆离系内。在岩体东北侧,云母片岩被含电气石淡色花岗岩捕虏。云母片岩主要由金云母、绿泥石和少量黑云母组成。从全岩地球化学成分来看,云母片岩具有含量较高的Al2O3(13.38%~14.32%)、K2O(6.09%~9.66%)、FeO^(*)(27.11%~30.09%)、MgO(15.25%~17.21%)、TiO_(2)(0.09%~0.26%),富集关键金属Li(650×10^(-6)~1031×10^(-6))、Rb(1649×10^(-6)~2773×10^(-6))、Cs(98×10^(-6)~229×10^(-6))、Tl(5.7×10^(-6)~12.1×10^(-6))、Ga(121×10^(-6)~148×10^(-6))。单矿物化学成分分析结果表明,金云母与全岩相似,也富集Li-Rb-Cs-Ga,这些关键金属元素以类质同象形式替代K进入金云母。年代学分析结果显示,锆石记录了分布广泛的碎屑年龄和新生代的变质事件。通过研究认为,洛扎地区云母片岩的原岩为沉积岩,在淡色花岗岩侵位过程中被捕虏,发生了低级变质作用;本文报道的金云母成矿作用,是锂矿成因的新类型:变质改造型。喜马拉雅造山带变沉积岩富集稀散金属铊和镓,表明该地区除了稀有金属元素外,稀散金属也有成矿潜力,是我国未来关键金属矿产勘探的又一重要地区。本文为建立喜马拉雅造山带关键金属的成矿模型提供了新的思路,未来需要加强该区和其他造山带变沉积岩关键金属成矿潜力的调查和研究。

Influence of shielding gas on the mechanical and metallurgical properties of DP-GMA-welded 5083-H321 aluminum alloy

In the present research, 6-mm-thick 5083-H321 aluminum alloy was joined by the double-pulsed gas metal arc welding （DP-GMAW） process. The objective was to investigate the influence of the shielding gas composition on the microstructure and properties of GMA welds. A macrostructural study indicated that the addition of nitrogen and oxygen to the argon shielding gas resulted in better weld penetration. Furthermore, the tensile strength and bending strength of the welds were improved when oxygen and nitrogen （at concentrations as high as approximately 0. 1vol%） were added to the shielding gas; however, these properties were adversely affected when the oxygen and nitrogen contents were increased further. This behavior was attributed to the formation of excessive brown and black oxide films on the bead surface, the formation of intermetallic compounds in the weld metal, and the formation of thicker oxide layers on the bead surface with increasing nitrogen and oxygen contents in the argon-based shielding gas. Analysis by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed that most of these compounds are nitrides or oxides.

Numerical Simulation of Molten Metal Droplet Behavior in Gas Metal Arc Welding by Three-Dimensional Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics Method

The numerical model was developed using a SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) method and the projected transfer phenomena during a GMA (Gas Metal Arc) welding were simulated by the model to clarify mechanisms of the phenomena. As a result, the droplet transfer mode obtained from this calculation was regarded as a projected transfer mode in which the liquid column grew about 1 mm and a droplet grew up until its diameter became large the same as a wire diameter,?after that it was detached from the tip of the column. In addition, 10 droplets were formed for 0.1 s through these growth and detachment processes at the tip of a wire. To compare with the numerical results, actual GMA welding was carried out and molten metal droplet transfers were taken by high speed camera. The diameter of a wire, the length of a liquid column, the velocity of a droplet right before it reached a weld pool obtained by simulation showed good agreement with experiment.

Design and evaluation of a Laval-type supersonic atomizer for low-pressure gas atomization of molten metals

A Laval-type supersonic gas atomizer was designed for low-pressure gas atomization of molten metals. The principal design ob-jectives were to produce small-particle uniform powders at lower operating pressures by improving the gas inlet and outlet structures and op-timizing structural parameters. A computational fluid flow model was developed to study the flow field characteristics of the designed atom-izer. Simulation results show that the maximum gas velocity in the atomization zone can reach 440 m＆#183;s-1;this value is independent of the atomization gas pressure P0 when P0〉0.7 MPa. When P0=1.1 MPa, the aspiration pressure at the tip of the delivery tube reaches a mini-mum, indicating that the atomizer can attain the best atomization efficiency at a relatively low atomization pressure. In addition, atomization experiments with pure tin at P0=1.0 MPa and with 7055Al alloy at P0=0.8 and 0.4 MPa were conducted to evaluate the atomization capa-bility of the designed atomizer. Nearly spherical powders were obtained with the mass median diameters of 28.6, 43.4, and 63.5μm, respec-tively. Compared with commonly used atomizers, the designed Laval-type atomizer has a better low-pressure gas atomization capability.

The effects of different coating layers on lithium metal anode formed by reacting with different controlled atmospheres（argon,CO_2–O_2（2：1）,N_2,and CO_2–O_2–N_2（2：1：3））have been investigated.The obtained XRD,second ion mass spectroscopy（SIMS）,and scanning probe microscope（SPM）results demonstrate the formation of coating layers composed of Li_2CO_3,Li_3N,and the mixture of them on lithium tablets,respectively.The Li/Li symmetrical cell and Li/S cell are assembled to prove the advantages of the protected lithium tablet on electrochemical performance.The comparison of SEM and SIMS characterizations before/after cycles clarifies that an SEI-like composition formed on the lithium tablets could modulate the interfacial stabilization between the lithium foil and the ether electrolyte.

Feature Extraction and Dimensionality Reduction of Arc Sound under Typical Penetration Status in Metal Inert Gas Welding

Arc sound is well known as the potential and available resource for monitoring and controlling of the weld penetration status,which is very important to the welding process quality control,so any attentions have been paid to the relationships between the arc sound and welding parameters.Some non-linear mapping models correlating the arc sound to welding parameters have been established with the help of neural networks.However,the research of utilizing arc sound to monitor and diagnose welding process is still in its infancy.A self-made real-time sensing system is applied to make a study of arc sound under typical penetration status,including partial penetration,unstable penetration,full penetration and excessive penetration,in metal inert-gas（MIG） flat tailored welding with spray transfer.Arc sound is pretreated by using wavelet de-noising and short-time windowing technologies,and its characteristics,characterizing weld penetration status,of time-domain,frequency-domain,cepstrum-domain and geometric-domain are extracted.Subsequently,high-dimensional eigenvector is constructed and feature-level parameters are successfully fused utilizing the concept of primary principal component analysis（PCA）.Ultimately,60-demensional eigenvector is replaced by the synthesis of 8-demensional vector,which achieves compression for feature space and provides technical supports for pattern classification of typical penetration status with the help of arc sound in MIG welding in the future.

Applications of metal–organic frameworks for green energy and environment: New advances in adsorptive gas separation, storage and removal

The separation of gas molecules with similar physicochemical properties is of high importance but practically entails a substantial energy penalty in chemical industry. Meanwhile, clean energy gases such as H_2 and CH_4 are considered as promising candidates for the replacement of traditional fossil fuels. However, the technologies for the storage of these gases are still immature. In addition, the release of anthropogenic toxic gases into the atmosphere is a worldwide threat of growing concern. Both in academia and industry, considerable research efforts have been devoted to developing advanced porous materials for the effective and energy-efficient separation, storage, or capture of the related gases. In contrast to conventional inorganic porous materials such as zeolites and activated carbons, metal–organic frameworks(MOFs) are considered as a type of promising materials for gas separation and storage. In this contribution, we review the recent research advance of MOFs in some relevant applications, including CO_2 capture, O_2 purification, separation of light hydrocarbons, separation of noble gases, storage of gases(CH_4,H_2, and C_2 H_2) for energy, and removal of some gaseous air pollutants(NH_3, NO_2, and SO_2). Finally, an outlook regarding the challenges of the future research of MOFs in these directions is given.

Determining chaotic invariant properties of short-circuiting gas metal arc welding from an observed time series

The experimental time series of welding current produced by carbon dioxide gas metal arc welding with shortcircuiting transfer were recorded and subsequently evaluated. Based on phase space reconstruction, the correlation dimeusions and Kolmogorov entropies of the corresponding system have been numerically calculated using the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm at different time delays. It was found out that the time delay has little effect on the estimation of correlation dimension; conversely, it plays a key role in producing precise results on the estimation of Kolmogorov entropy.

A First-principles Study on the Gas Sensitivity of Metal-loaded Graphene with an Atomic Vacancy to O_2

In this work, adsorption energies, geometrical and electronic structures for adsorption systems of O_2 at metal-loaded graphene(M-Gra) and metal-loaded defective graphene(M-D-Gra)(M = Ni, Pd, Pt and Al) surfaces are studied using a GGA-PW91 method. Calculated results show that loaded M make the interaction between O_2 and the graphene surface change from physical to chemical adsorptions, band gaps of M-Gra systems after the O_2 adsorption change, and the Ni-loaded Gra has the highest sensitivity to O_2. For O_2-M-D-Gra systems, interactions between O_2 and the M-D-Gra surfaces are chemical, similar to the O_2-M-Gra systems, and loaded Pt and Al have the strongest effect on the sensitivity of D-Gra to O_2. The M loads at the perfect Gra and D-Gra surfaces make the interactions between O_2 and the surfaces have obvious charge transfer. This work would provide a valuable guidance on the gas sensitivity study of graphene to O_2.
