Forging ratio at elongation is most often calculated with use of simple relations, which are based on the change of cross section of the forged pieces. The intensity of structure development is influenced not only by the simple change of cross sections, but also by relative length of the stroke, magnitude of deformation in individual passes, manner of edging, temperature, friction and shape of anvils. The paper gives an analysis of influence of the relative length of the stroke on the forging ratio.展开更多

Since the major deterioration factor affecting the storability of lokum is moisture gain or loss, the effect of the possible ambient conditions (32%, 53%, 75% RH and 15, 25, 35 ℃) on weight change and firmness of tokum was determined to estimate its structural changes. The variations in thermal properties of lokurn samples stored at different RH (32, 53, 65, 75, and 85% RH) were also determined. Increasing RH decreased glass transition of lokum samples, and two glass transitions (Tg) were observed at 75 and 85% RH. The presence of the second Tg could be related with phase separation which was increased with increasing moisture content and RH. Lokum should be kept at around 50% RH and 15℃, higher storage RH's and temperatures will cause the product to become unacceptable by the consumer within 20 days.展开更多

Especially, an obvious decreasing trend after 1990 can be clearly seen, which is consistent with the decreas- ing trend of the surface relative humidity. However, the number of haze days has demonstrated an increasing trend. As such, the role of reduction of atmospheric relative humidity in the transition process from fog into haze has been further investigated. It is estimated that the mean relative humidity of haze days is about 69%, lower than previously estimated, which implies that it is more difficult for the haze particles to transform into fog drops. This is possibly one of the major environmental factors leading to the reduction of number of fog days. The threshold of the relative humidity for transition from fog into haze is about 82%, also lower than previously estimated. Thus, the reduction of the surface relative humidity in China mainly due to the in- crease of the surface temperature and the saturation specific humidity may exert an obvious impact on the environmental con- ditions for the formations of fog and haze. In addition, our investigation of the relationship between haze and visibility reveals that with the increase of haze days, the visibility has declined markedly. Since 1961, the mean visibility has dropped from 4-10 to 2-4 kin, about a half of the previous horizontal distance of visibility.展开更多
