The thermal behavior under different densities of electric current and the effect of electric current at temperature of 780 oC using low density of electric current of 6.70 A/mm^2 on the B2+O lamellar microstructure were investigated for Ti2AlNb alloy sheet. The stable temperature denoted a balanced state between the Joule heat and the dissipation of heat including heat conduction, convection and radiation while the distribution of temperature was nonuniform. The highest temperatures of electric current heating samples increased as the density of electric current was elevated. In order to understand the specific effect of electric current on B2+O microstructure, heat treatment for microstructural homogeneity was introduced to this study. After that, according to the microstructural observations by common characterization techniques in the resistance-heating sample and the isothermal furnace-heating sample after homogenizing treatment, few significant differences in content and orientation of phases can be directly and explicitly found except the thermal effect from the applied electric current. The results will provide reference to this prospective forming and welding techniques and the application for Ti2AlNb alloys using resistance heating in the near future.展开更多

Based on wave theory, the equation of the lateral wave-field stacking for generalized-offset Fresnel zones is derived. For zero and nonzero offsets, the lateral stacking amplitude of diffraction bins of different sizes is analyzed by referring to the shape of the Fresnel zones of different order. The results suggest the following. First, the contribution of diffraction bins to wave- field stacking is related to the offset, surface relief, interface dip, the depth of the shot point to the reflection interface, the observational geometry, and the size of the interference stacking region. Second, the first-order Fresnel zone is the main constructive interference, and its contribution to the reflection amplitude is slightly smaller than half the contribution of all Fresnel zones. Finally, when the size of the diffraction bin is smaller than the first- order Fresnel zone, the larger the size of the diffraction bin, the larger is the amplitude of the receiver, even in the nonzero offset-case.展开更多

The author of the submitted political project is the President of Turkey, Abdullah Gul together with the Foreign Minister by that time-Ahmet Davutoglu. By his direct instruction, the Turkish diplomacy developed one more plan known under the name of ＂Football Diplomacy＂ by 2009. Despite the fact that high-rank officials of both countries were engaged in implementation of this plan and works necessary for consolidation of public opinion were carried out in both countries, the process was suspended anyway and principal changes have not occurred in bilateral relations until now.展开更多

We have derived the WF of graphene by the thermionic emission method. Chemical vapor deposition （CVD）-grown single-layered polycrystalline graphene on copper foil is transferred to a cross-stacked carbon nanotube （CNT） film drawn from a super-aligned multiwalled CNT array. By decreasing the pore size of the CNT film, the as-prepared CNT-graphene film （CGF） can be Joule heated to a temperature as high as 1,800 K in vacuum without obvious destruction in the graphene structure. By studying the thermionic emission, we derive the WF of graphene, ranging from 4.7 to 4.8 eV with the average value being 4.74 eV. Because the substrate influence can be minimized by virtue of the porous nature of the CNT film and the influence of adsorbents can be excluded due to the high temperature during the thermionic emission, the measured WF of graphene can be regarded as intrinsic.展开更多

High-resolution and real-time observations show the tungsten tip ‘swallow' carbon atoms of the FLG and ‘spit' graphite shells at its surface. The tip was carbonized to tungsten carbide(WC, W_2 C and WC_x) after this process. A carbon diffusion mechanism has been proposed based on the diffusion of carbon atoms through the tungsten tip and separation from the surface of the tip. After Joule heating, the initial FLG-metal mechanical contact was transformed to FLG-WCx-W contact, which results in significant improvement on electrical conductivity at the interface.展开更多
