Microstructure evolution and dislocation configurations in nanostructured Al-Mg alloys processed by high pressure torsion

Microstructure evolution and dislocation configurations in nanostructured Al–Mg alloys processed by high pressure torsion （HPT） were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy （TEM） and high-resolution TEM （HRTEM）. The results show that the grains less than 100 nm have sharp grain boundaries （GBs） and are completely free of dislocations. In contrast, a high density of dislocation as high as 1017 m^-2 exists within the grains larger than 200 nm and these larger grains are usually separated into subgrains and dislocation cells. The dislocations are 60° full dislocations with Burgers vectors of 1/2〈110〉and most of them appear as dipoles and loops. The microtwins and stacking faults （SFs） formed by the Shockley partials from the dissociation of both the 60° mixed dislocation and 0° screw dislocation in ultrafine grains were simultaneously observed by HRTEM in the HPT Al–Mg alloys. These results suggest that partial dislocation emissions, as well as the activation of partial dislocations could also become a deformation mechanism in ultrafine-grained aluminum during severe plastic deformation. The grain refinement mechanism associated with the very high local dislocation density, the dislocation cells and the non-equilibrium GBs, as well as the SFs and microtwins in the HPT Al-Mg alloys were proposed.

Hot deformation behavior and workability of pre-extruded ZK60A magnesium alloy

The hot deformation behavior and workability of pre-extruded ZK60A magnesium alloy were investigated by compression tests in the temperature range of 250-450 ℃and the strain rate range of 0.001-10 s 1. The constitutive equation for the pre-extruded ZK60A alloy can be described by hyperbolic sine function. Processing maps were constructed from true strains of -0.2 to -0.8. The alloy experienced complete dynamic recrystallization （DRX） and showed good workability in the temperature range of 300-400 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.01-0.001 s-Z, where hot working in pre-extruded ZK60A, such as forging, can be carried out. For large deformation to true strain of over -0.5, strain rates above 0.1 s-1 are not recommended at all temperatures, where flow instability such as local strain concentration, twinning deformation, abnormal grain growth, micro-cracks, and shear fracture were observed. Climb-controlled dislocation creep dominates both the plastic deformation and nucleation of DRX of the pre-extruded ZK60A magnesium alloy.

Splenic vasculopathy in portal hypertension patients

AIM： To investigate the interaction between portal hypertension, splanchnic hyperdynamic circulation and splanchnic vasculopathy by observing splenic arterial and venous pathological changes and the role of extracellular matrix in the pathogenesis of portal hypertensive vasculopathy by measuring the expression of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ procollagen mRNA in splenic venous walls of portal hypertensive patients. METHODS： Morphological changes of splenic arteries and veins taken from portal hypertensive patients （n = 20） and normal controls （n = 10） were observed under optical and electron microscope. Total RNA was extracted and the expression of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ procollagen mRNA in splenic venous walls of portal hypertensive patients （n= 20） was semi-quantitatively detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. RESULTS： Under optical microscope, splenic arterial intima was destroyed and internal elastic membrane and medial elastic fibers of the splenic arterial walls were degenerated and broken. Splenic venous intima became remarkably thick. Endothelial cells were not intact with formation of mural thrombus. The tunica media became thickened significantly due to hypertrophy of smooth muscles. Fibers and connective tissues were increased obviously. Under electron microscope, smooth muscle cells of the splenic arteries were degenerated and necrotized. Phenotypes of smooth muscle cells changed from constrictive into synthetic type. Red blood cells and platelets accumulated around the damaged endothelial cells. Synthetic smooth muscle cells were predominant in splenic veins and their cytoplasma had plentiful rough endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes and Golgi bodies. Along the vascular wall, a lot of collagen fibers were deposited, the intima was damaged and blood components accumulated. There was no significant difference in the expression of type Ⅰ procollagen mRNA in splenic venous wall between the patients with portal hypertension and those without portal hypertension （P〉0.05）, but the expression of type Ⅲ procoagen mRNA was significantly stronger in the patients with portal hypertension than in those without portal hypertension （P〈 0.01）. CONCLUSION： Type Ⅲ procollagen and collagen might be important extra-cellular matrix resulting in neointimal formation and vascular remodeling in the pathogenesis of portal hypertensive vasculopathy. The pathological changes in splenic arteries and veins exist in portal hypertension patients. There might be an interaction between portal hypertension, splanchnic hyperdynamic circulation and splanchnic vasculopathy.

Characteristics of thickness distribution of tailor-welded tube hydroforming

Both experimental and mechanical analyses were carded out to investigate the characteristics of thickness distribution for tailor-welded tube （TWT） hydroforming with dissimilar thickness. Then, the effects of weld-seam position and thickness difference were also revealed. A multiple-diameter tube was formed to reveal the characteristics and the regularity of thickness distribution during TWT hydroforming. It is indicated that there are obvious fluctuations in thickness distribution though the TWTs have the same expansion ratio. The thinning ratio of thinner tube is bigger than that of thicker tube especially in the zone closed to the weld-seam. The difference in thinning ratio between two tube segments can reach 9%. Consequently, sudden and large fluctuation of thickness appears in the zone nearby the weld-seam. The difference in thinning ratio between thinner and thicker tubes enlarges as the thickness difference increases, but improves as length ratio increases. Different strain states are the main reason to induce nonuniform thickness distribution. The difference in thickness is the main reason to induce different strain states on thinner and thicker tubes.
