The mechanical properties of AZ91 Mg alloy recycled from machined chips by extrusion at 623 K and ECAP at 573 K and 623 K were compared with those of the reference alloy which was produced from an as-received AZ91 Mg alloy block under the same conditions as the recycled alloy.The recycled specimens show a higher strength at room temperature than the reference alloy.The improvement of the tensile properties is attributed not only to the small grain size,but also to the dispersed oxide contaminants.展开更多

The compositions and microstructure morphologies of the ingot at different locations were performed, which indicated that the chemical composition distributed homogeneously through the whole alloy ingot and the average grain size increased from the surface to the center. The results of the EDS and element face-scanning illustrated that the eutectic compounds mainly consisted of fl-Mg17Al12 and a small amount of fl-Mgl7（AlZn）12. Furthermore, slight improvements of the strength and ductility were observed from the center to the surface along the axial direction of the alloy ingot, while both the strength and elongation to failure of the samples along the radial direction are higher than that along the axial direction. The fine grain strengthening was the main contributors to the strength of the as-casted AZ31 alloy.展开更多

In this paper, based on moment equilibrium condition of a mechanic system including two-row planetary gear sets and their regular resistance conditions, an explicit model for calculating the partial ratios of coupled planetary gear sets was proposed. In addition, by giving this effective model, the partial ratios can be calculated simply and accurately.展开更多

The results show that the integral stability of the mechanized panel of No. 3 ore-body is passable in the process of winning at full level height; the stability of panel tends to be worse gradually with continuous increasing of panel width; and the better width of access panel in No.3 ore-body is less than 52 m. It is indicated that 3D elasto-plastic finite element method can make a satisfactory study of numerical simulation on the panel stability and its structural dimension in the test for the upward access mechanized-panel mining. The results of the theoretical calculation and analysis accord with the actual situation from the field ground pressure monitoring.展开更多

Three different notch sizes were placed, one by one, at the top surface of a cantilever beam （to be considered as a crack at the mechanical system） and harmonic forces were applied at the tip of the beam with three different frequencies, for each notch size, to obtain experimental data to run the diagnosis algorithm. From the results it was possible to infer that the observation system performance increases with the raising of the crack size, which can be explained by the model, that gets more accurate with bigger crack sizes, however, when the propagation of the crack is considered at the model, the diagnosis of the crack presence tends to be more difficult. It was also possible to conclude that the developed algorithm works properly for systems which excitation frequencies are higher than 20 Hz and different from the natural frequencies of the system, due to influence of dynamic response of the crack at the model.展开更多
