The results indicate that the alloy is inclined to failure when the strain reaches 5.6%. The coarse secondary phases are responsible for the failure, especially for the Mg3Zn3Er2 phase (W-phase). It is indicated that the existence of the W-phase activates the stress concentrations due to the incapacity of W-phase for the load transfer, which results in the void at the inner of the W-phase. In comparison, the interface between the matrix and the secondary phase is stable. In conclusion, the characters of the secondary phases with respect to size, distribution, morphology and type, play an important role in the plastic deformation behavior of the alloy.展开更多

The results show that eutectic Si undergoes stubbing, necking, fragmentation, and growth in the initial stage (250 min); in the middle solution stage (250 to 400 min), the eutectic Si morphology has no significant change, only the degree of spheroidizing becomes higher; after 600 min, the growth of eutectic Si is a coarsening process controlled by diffusion and follows the Liftshitz-Slyozov-Wangner (LSW) model, and the eutectic Si morphology deteriorates due to the occurrence of facets and lap. Based on the quantitative measure and regression analysis, the eutectic Si morphology has a remarkable influence on mechanical properties and fracture behavior.展开更多

Uniaxial tensile deformation behaviors of samples with tensile axis tilting 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90° to normal direction (ND) respectively were addressed. Tensile deformation anisotropy was observed for samples with different angles to ND. The results show that the specimens with the angle from 0° to 30° exhibit relatively lower yielding strength due to the {1 012}extension twinning. However, basal slip and prismatic slip are the dominant deformation modes for the specimens with angles larger than 45°. Macro-fractures are parallel to the length direction of abnormal large grains in the specimens with angles less than 60°, while those are serrated fracture edge for specimens with angles 75° and 90°.展开更多

The three dimensional elastodynamic equations and Fourier Laplace transforms are used. Based on the influence function and the inversion of integral transforms, one can find that if the distribution of normal displacement on the surface of a dynamic elliptical crack is a polynomial of degree n in x 1 and x 2 , then the normal pressure acting over the ellipse is also a polynomial P n(x 1,x 2) of the same degree in x 1 and x 2 .展开更多

The results of those tests indicate that confining pressure effect, structure effect and moisture effect all have influence to fault matter's nature. Meanwhile, the distortion destruction and stability variation of fault crush zone are the main reason which causes water-inrush lag-effect. Simultaneously, the stimulation computation we made by the numerical simulation software FLAC 3D also describes the mining influence to floor strata, fault crush zone's range and size, the influence of confined water on overburden and the fault zones, also it describes the time effect of bearing influenced by confined water and the rock dank height of confined water along the fault zones influenced by the specific water head.展开更多

The rheological properties of erucicamide dimethyl amidopropyl betaine (EDAB)-HC1 acid blended system and its suitability as fracturing fluid were investigated in this work. The effects of pH, concentration of EDAB, and temperature on the rheological properties of the blended system were studied. The results show that addition of EDAB improved the viscosity of the system from less than 10 mPa. s to about 400 mPa. s, which could retard the acid-rock reaction to about one half at 60℃ and one quarter at 90℃ comparing to straight HC1 acid, suggesting that there is sufficient time for the blended fluid to react with formation rock when it is used as fracturing fluid in an oil field. Core flow tests demonstrated that the EDAB-acid blended fluid could divert itself from high permeability formation core to low permeability one, thus ensuring proper acid placement in the target reservoirs.展开更多

In addition, the calculated and experimental half-lives of 425 nuclei are compared to check the validity of the model applied on α decay. The calculated half-lives of decay are in good agreement with the experimental data. Finally, some useful predications on the α decay half-lives are provided for future experiments.展开更多
