The Li2Mg0.15Mn0.4Co0.45SiO4/C solid solution with orthorhombic unit cell (space group Pmn21) was synthesized successfully by combination of wet process and solid-state reaction at high temperature, and its electrochemical performance was investigated primarily. Li2Mg0.15Mn0.4Co0.45SiO4/C composite materials deliver a charge capacity of 302 mA-h/g and a discharge capacity of 171 mA.h/g in the first cycle. The discharge capacity is stabilized at about 100 mA-h/g after 10 cycles at a current density of 10 mA/g in the voltage of 1.5-4.8 V vs Li/Li^+. The results show that Mg-substitution for the Co ions in Li2Mn0.4Co0.6SiO4 improves the stabilization of initial structure and the electrochemical nerformance.展开更多

Based on the concept of true strength and the revised calculation method of the potential failure stress ratio, the equation of the critical state stress ratio for saturated clays under different temperatures is deduced. Temperature is introduced as a variable into the UH model (3-dimensional elastoplastic model for overconsolidated clays adopting unified hardening parameter) proposed by Yao et al. and then the UH model considering temperature effects is proposed. By means of the transformed stress method proposed by Yao et al., the proposed model can be applied conveniently to 3-dimensional stress states. The strain-hardening, softening and dilatancy behavior of overconsolidated clays at a given temperature can be described using the proposed model, and the volume change behavior caused by heating can also be predicted. Compared with the modified Cam-clay model, the proposed model requires only one additional parameter to consider the behavior of the decrease of preconsolidation pressure with an increase of temperature. At room temperature, the proposed model can be changed into the original UH model and the modified Cam-clay model for overconsolidated clays and normally consolidated clays, respectively. The considered temperature range here is from the melting point to the boiling point of the pore water (e.g. the experimental temperatures (20℃-95℃) mentioned in this paper are within this range). Comparison with existing test results shows that the model can reasonably describe the basic mechanical behavior of overconsolidated clays under various temperature paths.展开更多
In this work, we have studied a new lead-free ceramic of(1-y)Bi1-xNdxFeO3-yBiScO3(0.05≤x≤0.15 and 0.05≤y≤0.15) prepared by a conventional solid-state method, and the influences of Nd and Sc content on their ph...In this work, we have studied a new lead-free ceramic of(1-y)Bi1-xNdxFeO3-yBiScO3(0.05≤x≤0.15 and 0.05≤y≤0.15) prepared by a conventional solid-state method, and the influences of Nd and Sc content on their phase structure and electrical properties were investigated in detail. The ceramics with 0.05≤x≤0.10 and 0.05≤y≤0.15 belong to an R3 c phase, and the rhombohedral-like and orthorhombic multiphase coexistence is established in the composition range of 0.125≤x≤0.15 and y=0. The electrical properties of the ceramics can be enhanced by modifying x and y values. The highest piezoelectric coefficient(d33~51 p C/N) is obtained in the ceramics with x=0.075 and y=0.125, which is superior to that of a pure BiFeO3 ceramic. In addition, a lowest dielectric loss(tan δ~0.095%, f=100 k Hz) is shown in the ceramics with x=0.15 and y=0 due to the involvement of low defect concentrations, and the improved thermal stability of piezoelectricity at 20–600℃ is possessed in the ceramics. We believe that the ceramics can play a meaningful role in the high-temperature lead-free piezoelectric applications.展开更多
