The microstructure and wear-resistant properties were investigated . The results show that TiC particles are formed in-situ and distributed uniformly in matrix. No particles aggregation and macro or micro precipitation are observed. The wear-resistant properties of composites increase with the increase of TiC_p content, but will not increase when the TiC_p content reaches constant value. Finally, the friction and wear mechanism were also discussed.展开更多

The proposed model considers convection, radiation, molten pool flow, and heat conduction effect on temperature. A comparison of the simulation and actual welding test results confirms the reliability of the model. This welding heat-process model can provide the cooling rate at any position in the heat affected zone (HAZ) and can be used as a reference for the analysis of material properties and for process optimization.展开更多
