Influence of external constraint and rolling geometry on deformation banding of copper single crystals with {123}<634> orientation

In order to further understand the similarity and difference betweendeformation mechanisms of single crystals and poly-crystalline materials, the influence of externalconstraint and rolling geometry on the deformation behaviour of copper single crystals with{123}<634> orientation was investigated by embedding them into metal frames of different strengths.The metal frames were made of aluminum and mild steel, respectively. The results show that thedeformation banding degree of the crystal increases with the strength of metal frame and shearstrain. For the crystals rolled under lower (gamma)g ((gamma)g is the ratio of the geometricalredundant shear strain to the normal rolling strain), the deformation is homogeneous. For thecrystals rolled under higher (gamma)g, the deformation is extremely inhomogeneous. The deformationis more homogeneous in the crystals rolled in steel frames than that rolled in aluminum frames. TheS-orientation is more stable in the crystals rolled under lower (gamma)g than that rolled underhigher (gamma)g.

Coordinated Dispatch Based on Distributed Robust Optimization for Interconnected Urban Integrated Energy and Transmission Systems

To improve the economic efficiency of urban integrated energy systems(UIESs)and mitigate day-ahead dispatch uncertainty,this paper presents an interconnected UIES and transmission system(TS)model based on distributed robust optimization.First,interconnections are established between a TS and multiple UIESs,as well as among different UIESs,each incorporating multiple energy forms.The Bregman alternating direction method with multipliers(BADMM)is then applied to multi-block problems,ensuring the privacy of each energy system operator(ESO).Second,robust optimization based on wind probability distribution information is implemented for each ESO to address dispatch uncertainty.The column and constraint generation(C&CG)algorithm is then employed to solve the robust model.Third,to tackle the convergence and practicability issues overlooked in the existing studies,an external C&CG with an internal BADMM and corresponding acceleration strategy is devised.Finally,numerical results demonstrate that the adoption of the proposed model and method for absorbing wind power and managing its uncertainty results in economic benefits.
