Experiments on soft rubbers and cushioning foam materials were carried out. In order to analyze the accuracy of the experimental results, the stress equilibrium issues involved in the assumptions of SHPB were investigated. First, by way of re-constructing loading process of incident wave, the stress- strain curve was obtained, along with the stress equilibrium ratio of specimen. Secondly, the influences on the accuracy of stress-strain curves were investigated through the elastic modulus comparisons. And the results illustrate that the bilinear incident wave from experiments can ensure the stress equilibrium deformation of specimen after 2 normalized times, much sooner than ramp incident waves. Moreover, it even facilitates specimen deformation with a constant strain rate. The results confirm that the detectability of the modified SHPB can be down to tens kPa with enough accuracy level.展开更多

Employing AC impedance method, we studied the hydration and hardening process of cement paste with fly ash and slag, and analyzed the influence of different hydration age, water-binder ratio and mineral admixture on the impedance parameters. Moreover, we compared the results with those by the conventional porosity testing method and X-ray diffraction method. The results showed that AC impedance could be taken as a new technology in cement and concrete research.展开更多

Thermal impedance as the main bottleneck limiting the performance of TIMs is usually neglected. Herein, the thermal impedance of SR composites loaded with different levels of hexagonal boron nitride(h-BN) as TIMs was elaborated for the first time by the ASTM D 5470 standard test and finite element analysis. It was found that elastic modulus and surface roughness of SR composites increased with the increase of h-BN content, indicating that the conformity was reduced. When the assembly pressure was 0.69 MPa, there existed an optimal h-BN content at which the contact resistance was minimum(0.39 K·cm^(2)·W^(-1)). Although the decreased bond line thickness(BLT) by increasing the assembly pressure was beneficial to reduce the thermal impedance, the proper assembly pressure should be selected to prevent the warpage of the contact surfaces and the increase in contact resistance, according to the compression properties of the SR composites. This study provides valuable insights into fabrication of high-performance TIMs for modern electronic device applications.展开更多

The phase identification and the study of surface morphology were carried out by X-my diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical properties were examined by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge experiments, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results show that the film prepared by this method is homogeneous, dense, and crack-free. The thin film has a capacity of 38 μtAh/（cm^2·μm） with the capacity loss of 0.037% per cycle after being cycled for 100 times. The average diffusion coefficient for lithium ions in the RTA-derived LiMn2O4 thin film is 1×10 ^-10 cm^2·s^-1.展开更多

The pressed compacts were sintered in air at 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600℃ for 3 h, respectively. The phase of the ceramics was characterized by the X-ray diffraction （XRD） method. The conductivity of the ceramics was measured by the AC complex impedance technique at 700- 1200 ℃. The ratio of the cubic phase in the ceramics improves with increasing CeO2 content, leading to a enlargement of the oxygen ionic migration channel. The contact resistance between conductive phase particles decreases with increasing CeO2 content, leading to a lower migration hindrance of the oxygen ionic. Consequently, the ionic conductivity of the ceramics improves with increas- ing CeO2 content. Additionally, an analysis for this phenomenon was also presented.展开更多

And then their GMI response was investigated at a frequency range from 0.1 to 13 MHz. It was found through the comparison of results that the GMI effect of these wires had been improved through stress-current anneal treatments, because the tensile stress applied on these Co-rich wires introduced magnetoelastic energy and increased anisotropy, which improved the circular permeability and GMI effect. Their impedance ratio AZ/Z increased from 244% to 480.9% at 7 MHz and the field sensitivity increased to 0.83%/（A/m） at 5 MHz, when a tensile stress of 244 MPa was applied at an anneal current of 100 mA for 10 min. It was therefore concluded that these annealed wires were suitable for high sensitive sensor applications.展开更多
