Relationship between the unique microstructures and behaviors of high-entropy alloys

High-entropy alloys(HEAs),which were introduced as a pioneering concept in 2004,have captured the keen interest of nu-merous researchers.Entropy,in this context,can be perceived as representing disorder and randomness.By contrast,elemental composi-tions within alloy systems occupy specific structural sites in space,a concept referred to as structure.In accordance with Shannon entropy,structure is analogous to information.Generally,the arrangement of atoms within a material,termed its structure,plays a pivotal role in dictating its properties.In addition to expanding the array of options for alloy composites,HEAs afford ample opportunities for diverse structural designs.The profound influence of distinct structural features on the exceptional behaviors of alloys is underscored by numer-ous examples.These features include remarkably high fracture strength with excellent ductility,antiballistic capability,exceptional radi-ation resistance,and corrosion resistance.In this paper,we delve into various unique material structures and properties while elucidating the intricate relationship between structure and performance.

Understanding the superior mechanical properties of Mg-3Al-Zn alloy sheets:Role of multi-type unique textures

Mg-3Al-1Zn(AZ31)sheets were produced by transverse gradient extrusion(TGE)process.The flow behavior and dynamic recrystallization during extrusion were systematically analyzed.The microstructures,textures,and mechanical behavior of extruded AZ31 sheet were also analyzed and compared with conventional extruded(CE)sheet.The results showed that fine grain structure and multi-type unique textures were formed in TGE sheet because of the generation of extra flow velocity along transverse direction(TD)and flow velocity gradient along extrusion direction(ED)during extrusion.The basal poles gradually deviated away normal direction(ND)from edge to center of the TGE sheet along TD,and the largest inclination angle at center region reached around 65°.Furthermore,the basal poles inclined from ED to TD 40°-63°,except for the center region of TGE sheet.The TGE sheet presented higher ductility and strain hardening exponent(n-value),but lower yield strength and Lankford value(r-value)in comparison with the CE sheet.Both the basal<a>slip and tensile twins were easy to be activated during deformation,and the largest elongation of 41%and the lowest yield strength of 86.5 MPa were obtained for the ED-center sample in the TGE sheet.

THE REGULARITY AND UNIQUENESS OF A GLOBAL SOLUTION TO THE ISENTROPIC NAVIER-STOKES EQUATION WITH ROUGH INITIAL DATA

A global weak solution to the isentropic Navier-Stokes equation with initial data around a constant state in the L^(1)∩BV class was constructed in[1].In the current paper,we will continue to study the uniqueness and regularity of the constructed solution.The key ingredients are the Holder continuity estimates of the heat kernel in both spatial and time variables.With these finer estimates,we obtain higher order regularity of the constructed solution to Navier-Stokes equation,so that all of the derivatives in the equation of conservative form are in the strong sense.Moreover,this regularity also allows us to identify a function space such that the stability of the solutions can be established there,which eventually implies the uniqueness.

UNIQUENESS OF INVERSE TRANSMISSION SCATTERING WITH A CONDUCTIVE BOUNDARY CONDITION BY PHASELESS FAR FIELD PATTERN

In this paper,we establish the unique determination result for inverse acoustic scattering of a penetrable obstacle with a general conductive boundary condition by using phaseless far field data at a fixed frequency.It is well-known that the modulus of the far field pattern is invariant under translations of the scattering obstacle if only one plane wave is used as the incident field,so it is impossible to reconstruct the location of the underlying scatterers.Based on some new research results on the impenetrable obstacle and inhomogeneous isotropic medium,we consider different types of superpositions of incident waves to break the translation invariance property.

THE EXISTENCE AND LOCAL UNIQUENESS OF MULTI-PEAK SOLUTIONS TO A CLASS OF KIRCHHOFF TYPE EQUATIONS

Uniquely Decomposable Constellation Group-Based Sparse Vector Coding for Short Packet Communications

Sparse vector coding(SVC)is emerging as a potential technology for short packet communications.To further improve the block error rate(BLER)performance,a uniquely decomposable constellation group-based SVC(UDCG-SVC)is proposed in this article.Additionally,in order to achieve an optimal BLER performance of UDCG-SVC,a problem to optimize the coding gain of UDCG-based superimposed constellation is formulated.Given the energy of rotation constellations in UDCG,this problem is solved by converting it into finding the maximized minimum Euclidean distance of the superimposed constellation.Simulation results demonstrate the validness of our derivation.We also find that the proposed UDCGSVC has better BLER performance compared to other SVC schemes,especially under the high order modulation scenarios.

Uniqueness of Viscosity Solutions to the Dirichlet Problem Involving Infinity Laplacian

In this paper, we study the Dirichlet boundary value problem involving the highly degenerate and h-homogeneous quasilinear operator associated with the infinity Laplacian, where the right hand side term is and the boundary value is . First, we establish the comparison principle by the double variables method based on the viscosity solutions theory for the general equation in. We propose two different conditions for the right hand side and get the comparison principle results under different conditions by making different perturbations. Then, we obtain the uniqueness of the viscosity solution to the Dirichlet boundary value problem by the comparison principle. Moreover, we establish the local Lipschitz continuity of the viscosity solution.

Existence and Uniqueness Results for a Fully Third-Order Boundary Value Problem

The boundary value problems of the third-order ordinary differential equation have many practical application backgrounds and their some special cases have been studied by many authors. However, few scholars have studied the boundary value problems of the complete third-order differential equations u′′′(t) = f (t,u(t),u′(t),u′′(t)). In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of solutions and positive solutions of the fully third-order ordinary differential equation on [0,1] with the boundary condition u(0) = u′(1) = u′′(1) = 0. Under some inequality conditions on nonlinearity f some new existence and uniqueness results of solutions and positive solutions are obtained.

Tackling application limitations of high-safetyγ-butyrolactone electrolytes:Exploring mechanisms and proposing solutions

Developing wide-temperature and high-safety lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)presents significant challenges attributed to the absence of suitable solvents possessing broad liquid range and non-flammability properties.γ-Butyrolactone(GBL)has emerged as a promising solvent;however,its incompatibility with graphite anode has hindered its application.This limitation necessitates a comprehensive investigation into the underlying mechanisms and potential solutions.In this study,we achieve a molecular-level understanding of the perplexing interphase formation process by employing in-situ spectroelectrochemical techniques and density function calculations.Our findings reveal that,even at high salt concentrations,GBL consistently occupies the primary Li^(+)solvation sheath,leading to extensive GBL decomposition and the formation of a high-impedance and inorganic-poor solid-electrolyte interphase(SEI)layer.Contrary to manipulating solvation structures,our research demonstrates that the utilization of filmforming additives with higher reduction potential facilitates the pre-establishment of a robust SEI film on the graphite anode.This approach effectively inhibits GBL decomposition and significantly enhances the battery's lifespan.This study provides the first reported intrinsic understanding of the unique GBLgraphite incompatibility and offers valuable insights for the development of wide-temperature and high-safety LIBs.

规范场论中自对偶磁单极子解的存在唯一性

Magnetic monopoles stand for the static solution arising from a(1 + 3)–dimensional theory describing the interaction between a real scalar triplet and non–Abelian gauge field. In this paper, we obtain a two–point boundary value problem of a first–order ordinary differential equations from the self–dual monopole model. Then we establish the existence and uniqueness theorem for the problem by using a dynamical shooting method, we also obtain sharp asymptotic estimates for the solutions at infinity.

Existence of a Hölder Continuous Extension on Embedded Balls of the 3-Torus for the Periodic Navier Stokes Equations

This article gives a general model using specific periodic special functions, which is degenerate elliptic Weierstrass P functions whose presence in the governing equations through the forcing terms simplify the periodic Navier Stokes equations (PNS) at the centers of cells of the 3-Torus. Satisfying a divergence-free vector field and periodic boundary conditions respectively with a general spatio-temporal forcing term which is smooth and spatially periodic, the existence of solutions which have finite time singularities can occur starting with the first derivative and higher with respect to time. The existence of a subspace of the solution space where v3 is continuous and {C, y1, y12}, is linearly independent in the additive argument of the solution in terms of the Lambert W function, (y12=y2, C∈R) together with the condition v2=-2y1v1. On this subspace, the Biot Savart Law holds exactly [see Section 2 (Equation (13))]. Also on this subspace, an expression X (part of PNS equations) vanishes which contains all the expressions in derivatives of v1 and v2 and the forcing terms in the plane which are related as with the cancellation of all such terms in governing PDE. The y3 component forcing term is arbitrarily small in ε ball where Weierstrass P functions touch the center of the ball both for inviscid and viscous cases. As a result, a significant simplification occurs with a v3 only governing PDE resulting. With viscosity present as v changes from zero to the fully viscous case at v =1 the solution for v3 reaches a peak in the third component y3. Consequently, there exists a dipole which is not centered at the center of the cell of the Lattice. Hence since the dipole by definition has an equal in magnitude positive and negative peak in y3, then the dipole Riemann cut-off surface is covered by a closed surface which is the sphere and where a given cell of dimensions [-1, 1]3 is circumscribed on a sphere of radius 1. For such a closed surface containing a dipole it necessarily follows that the flux at the surface of the sphere of v3 wrt to surface normal n is zero including at the points where the surface of sphere touches the cube walls. At the finite time singularity on the sphere a rotation boundary condition is deduced. It is shown that v3 is spatially finite on the Riemann Sphere and the forcing is oscillatory in y3 component if the velocity v3 is. It is true that . A boundary condition on the sphere shows the rotation of a sphere of viscous fluid. Finally on the sphere a solution for v3 is obtained which is proven to be Hölder continuous and it is shown that it is possible to extend Hölder continuity on the sphere uniquely to all of the interior of the ball.
