This approach is based on simultaneously solving Tselikov equation for the rolling pressure and the modified Hitchcock equation for the roller flattening. To minimize the effect of the elastic deformation on the equal flow per second during the ultrathin foil rolling process, the law of conservation of mass was employed to compute the proportions of the forward slip, backward slip, and the cross shear zones in the contact arc, and then a formula was derived for computing the minimum thickness for asymmetric rolling. Experiment was conducted to find the foil minimum thickness for 304 steel by asymmetric rolling under the asymmetry ratios of 1.05, 1.15 and 1.30. The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculated ones. It was validated that the proposed formula can be used to calculate the foil minimum thickness under the asymmetric rolling condition.展开更多

This seepage may alter the local temperature, salinity, and subsequent accumulation of the gas hydrate. Using a kinetic gas hydrate formation model and in situ measurement of tempera- ture, salinity and fluid flux at the southern summit of Hydrate Ridge, we simuIate the gas hydrate accumulation at three distinct fluid sites: clam, bacterial mat, and gas discharge sites. At the clam sites (pore water flux 〈 20 kg m-2 yr-1), pore water advec- tion has little influence on temperature and salinity. However, the salinity and temperature are increased (peak salinity 〉 0.8 tool kg-1) by the formation of gas hydrate causing the base of the hydrate stability zone to move gradually from -115 to -70 meters below seafloor (mbsf). The gas hydrate saturation at the clam sites is relatively high. The water flux at the bacterial mat sites ranges from 100 to 2500 kg m-2 yr-1. The water flow suppresses the increase in salinity resulting in a salinity close to or slightly higher than that of seawater (〈 0.65 mol kg-l). Heat advection by water flow increases temperature significantly, shifting the base of the hydrate stability zone to above 50 or even 3 mbsf. The gas hydrate saturation is relatively low at the bacterial mat site. At the gas discharge sites, the pore water flux could reach 10^10 kg m-2 yr-1, and the temperature could reach that of the source area in 9 min. There is no gas hydrate formation at the gas discharge sites. Our simulative analysis therefore reveals that a lower pore water flux would result in lower salinity, higher temperature, and a shallower base of the hydrate sta- bility zone. This in turn induces a lower gas hydrate formation rate, lower hydrate saturation, and eventually less gas hydrate resources.展开更多
