The ribbon melt-spun at lower wheel speed （20 m/s） has composite structure composed of mostly SmCo7 and a small amount of Sm2Co17R. The grain size of SmCo7 phase decreases with the increase of Cr3C2 content. With the increase of wheel speed, the XRD peaks become lower and accompanied with a broad increase in backgrounds, indicating a considerable decrease in the grain size of the SmCo7 phase. When the wheel speed increases to 40 m/s, SmCo7-x（Cr3C2）x alloys can be obtained in the amorphous state for 0.15≤x≤0.25 with intrinsic coercive Hci of 0.004-0.007 T. The DSC analysis reveals that SmCo7 phase firstly precipitates from the amorphous matrix at 650 °C, followed by the crystallization of Sm2Co17 phase at 770 °C.展开更多

We propose to accept that thermodynamics is not designed to deal with confined systems and we propose to introduce a new set of rules for describing the behavior of confined systems. This proposal is based on a large number of simulation calculations. The employed method of simulation has been shown to describe static and dynamic phenomena encountered in this field. The newly formulated theory incorporates the phenomenon of hysteresis without inconsistencies. Further, it will be shown that the theory allows simulating diffusional and convectional transport （nanofluidics） by a unified approach without the need to introduce capillary forces （surface or interface tensions） by phenomenological parameters. The second part of the paper is devoted to the potential for practical use. It turns out that the new concepts open the route to employing unusual states of matter found in porous systems which may lead to improved applications. In particular we will focus on the possibility to drive a fluid in a pore into states with negative pressure under static and under dynamic conditions. It turns out that states with negative pressure can be reproducibly controlled. Negative pressure states are in principal known since the time of Torricelli and they have been discussed in the literature as experimentally accessible situations. Still, they have not been turned into practical usefulness which is likely to be caused by the notion of their metastability in macroscopic systems. Possible applications refer to controlling chemical reactions as well as new routes to efficient separation processes that are difficult to handle by conventional techniques.展开更多

The influence of different preloaded states and nonlinear stress-strain relationship of compressed concrete were both taken into account in this approach. Then a simplified expression was given by ignoring tensile resistance of concrete. Comparison of analytical predictions with experimental results indicates satisfactory accuracy of the procedures. The errors are less than 8% and 10% respectively when the tensile resistance of concrete is or not considered. While the maximum error of existing procedures is up to 60%.展开更多

The mechanical behaviors of the ECC/RC composite columns are numerically studied under low-cyclic loading with the finite element analysis softwareof MSC. MARC. It is found that the ECC/RC composite columns can significantly enhance the load capacity, the ductility ad energy dissipation of columns. Then, the effects of the height of the ECC, the axial compression ratio and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the seismic behaviors of the composite columns are parametrically studied. The results show that the ECC/RC composite column with a height of the ECC layer of 0. Sh（h is the height to the cross-section） can achieve similar seismic performance of a full ECC column. The peak load of the composite column increases significantly while the ductility decreases with the increase of the axial compression ratio. Increasing the longitudinal reinforcement ratio within a certain range can improve the ductility and energy dissipation capacity and almost has no effect on load capacity. The aalysis results ae instructive and valuable for reference in designing ECC structures.展开更多

In order to have a better understanding of the flooding phenomena inside electrode, it is important to evaluate various discharge conditions of the flooded electrodes. A model of flooded porous electrode under the influence of potential sweep was developed to evaluate the flooding conditions in-situ. The hysteresis of current density vs. time was observed at high sweep rates （1 O0 mV.sl）. It was not observed at low sweep rate （0.1 mV-s~）. In this study, these characteristics of flooding and hysteresis conditions were found to be markedly dependent on the potential scan rate. These dynamic behaviors are interpreted in terms of water saturation response, velocity of water movement, and evaporation rate of water.展开更多
