Water atomized powder obtained from the Wuhan Iron and Steel Corporation was used. With compacting and sintering, compared with cold compaction, the density of warm compacted samples increases by 0.07 - 0. 22 g/cm^3 at the same pressed pressure. The maximum achievable green density of warm compacted samples is 7.12 g/cm^3 at 120℃, and the maximum sintered density is 7.18 g/cm^3 at 80℃. Compared with cold compaction, the ejection force of warm compaction is smaller; the maximum discrep- ancy is about 7 kN. The warm compacted mechanism of densification of iron powders can be obtained: heating the powder contributes to improving plastic deformation of powder particles, and accelerating the mutual filling and rearrangement of powder particles.展开更多

However, cold compactibility of gas-atomized Al-Si alloy powder is inhibited due to the high strength as a result of the refined Si phases and the supersaturated Al matrix. The effect of annealing on improving the compactibility of Al-Si alloy powder was studied. The densification was investigated by the HECKEL compaction equation in terms of deformation capacity. Moreover, the microstructures and bending fracture surfaces of the green compacts were examined to clarify the densification behavior. The results show that a maximum relative density of 96.1% is obtained when the powder is annealed at 400 °C. The deformation capacity is significantly improved by annealing treatment due to the softening of Al matrix, precipitation of supersaturated Si phases, dissolution of needle-like eutectic phase, and spheroidization of Si phases.展开更多

An active disturbance rejection controller is proposed in this paper to deal with the nonlinear problem of hydraulic servo system in order to preserve last response and small overshoot of control system. The active disturbance rejection (ADR) controller is composed of nonlinear tracking differentiator (TD), extended state observer (ESO) and nonlinear feedback (NF) law. An example of the hydraulic edger system case study is investigated to show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed nonlinear controller, especially, in the circumstance of foreign disturbance and working condition variation, compared with classic PI controller.展开更多

An appropriate backfill system and craflwork were designed, using shattering milling method to crush gypsum, double-axles mixing and strong activation mixing way to mix slurry, cemented slurry and mullock backfill alternately process. The results show that gypsum is fit for backfilling afterwards by adding fly ash, though it is not an ideal aggregate for fine granule and coagulate retardation. The suggested dosage (the mass ratio of cement to fly ash to gypsum) is 1:1:6-1:1:8 with mass fraction of solid materials 60%-63%. Slurry is transported in suspend state with non-plastic strength, and then in concretion state after backfilling. The application to mine shows the technology is feasible, and gypsum utilization ratio is up to 100%. Transportation and backfill effect is very good for paste-like slurry and drenching cemented slurry into mullock, and the compressive strength and recovery ratio are 2.0 MPa and 82.6%, respectively, with the maximum subsidence of surface only 1.307 mm. Furthermore, the investment of system is about 7 × 10^6 yuan (RMB), only 1/10 of that of traditional paste backfill system.展开更多

AI-Cu/MWCNTs (multi-walled carbon nanotubes) nanocomposites were produced via compaction, sintering and hot extrusion process of AI-Cu/MWCNTs powders, which were fabricated by a conventional ball mill process with AI powders and Cu-MWCNTs composite powders which were synthesized by molecular level mixing technique. Also the change of mechanical properties with different content ratio of Cu/MWCNT composite powders in A1 matrix is analyzed. It is found that the addition of the proper Cu/MWCNTs powders which are well distributed in AI matrix leads to high mechanical stiffness. The 2 wt% Cu/MWCNTs reinforced A1 composites which exhibited 3.2 times higher tensile strength and 4.4 times higher yield strength than pure AI.展开更多

SiBCNAl powders were consolidated by a hot pressing (HP) technique at 1800 °C under a pressure of 30 MPa in argon and nitrogen. The sintering atmosphere had a great influence on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the ceramics. The two ceramics had different phase compositions and fracture surface morphologies. For the ceramics sintered in argon, flexural strength, fracture toughness, elastic modulus and Vickers hardness were 421.90 MPa, 3.40 MPa·m1/2, 174.10 GPa, and 12.74 GPa, respectively. For the ceramics sintered in nitrogen, the mechanical properties increased, except for the Vickers hardness, and the values of the above properties were 526.80 MPa, 5.25 MPa·m1/2, 222.10 GPa, and 11.63 GPa, respectively.展开更多
