The formation, microstructure and mechanical properties of welded joints as well as the correlations of each other were investigated. The results indicate that the quality of weld seams is good without defects such as discontinuity, beading, visible cracks or porosity, which is linked to the steady molten pool behavior and droplet transition. The morphologies of the heat affected zone (HAZ) located on the skin and stringer are disparate. The microstructure of the HAZ and fusion zone (FZ) is mainly comprised of acicular martensiticα′ phases. The microhardness of the HAZ and FZ is higher than that of the base metal (BM) and reaches a maximum value at the HAZ near FZ on the stringer. The tensile specimens along the skin and stringer fractured at the BM with ductile fracture surfaces.展开更多

The final forging's shape and deformation uniformity were considered in the multiple objective. The objective is to optimize the shape and the deformation uniformity of the final forging at the same time so that a more high integrate quality of the final forging can be obtained. The total objective was assembled by the shape and uniformity objective using the weight adding method. The preform die shape is presented by cubic B-spline curves. The control points of B-spline curves are used as the design variables. The forms of the total objective function, shape and uniformity sub-objective function are given. The sensitivities of the total objective function and the sub-objective functions with respect to the design variables are developed. Using this method, the preform die shape of an H-shaped forging process is optimally designed. The optimization results are very satisfactory.展开更多

T...A hot-press tackified preform was used to improve the uniformity of the laminates thickness and the mechanical properties of the obtained laminates were studied using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding(VARTM). Two modified preforms were prepared under 0.1 and 0.6 MPa in an autoclave and then were used to fabricate the laminates via VARTM. Permeability and thickness distribution of the laminates were obtained by using a special device. Moreover, the tensile and compressive strengths of the obtained laminates were studied and compared with the unmodified ones. Results show that the tackified laminates present a maximum and minimum thickness under 0.1 and 0.6 MPa, respectively. The thicknesses and in-plane permeability of the tackified laminates, with better thickness uniformity, are significantly decreased compared with that of the unmodified cases, while the tensile and compressive strengths of the tackified laminates are improved obviously. Results show that the mechanical property of the tackified laminates prepared by hotpressing at 0.1 MPa is better than that processed at 0.6 MPa.展开更多

The conglomerations are of almost sphericity after conglomerated. There are large pores among the conglomerations and small pores within themselves in the preform according to the design and the test of pore size distribution. The pore size of the preform is characterized by a double-peak distribution. The pore size distribution is influenced by conglomeration size. Large pores among the conglomerations still exist after infiltrated Si3N4 matrix. The conglomerations, however, are very compact. The CVI Si3N4 looks like cauliflowershaped structure. 2008 University of Science and Technology Beijing. All rights reserved.展开更多

The conventional technique to manufacture Metallo-ceramic brake pads was successfully and economically tried to replace the above process. Compacting and sintering technology suffers from certain major limitations such as inadequate joining of friction element with backing plate, poor density levels achieved in friction element owing to limited application of pressure during compacting, poor thermal conductivity due to high levels of porosity in the product, poor strength due to segregation of the impurities along prior particle boundaries (PPB’s) and, wide variations in final characteristics due to large number of variables involved. In contrast to these limitations, the present technique can offer brake pads of much simpler chemistry but with improved performance on account of simultaneous application of pressure and temperature and with better control of variables. Fade and recovery studies were carried out on a Krauss machine tester following the Economic Commission for Europe Regulation for replacement brake linings (ECE R-90). μfade, μrecovery, μperformance, % age fade , % age recovery & temperature rise lie within the range for friction materials used for low duty applications. The mechanical properties of these materials were characterized using ASTM standards.展开更多

It has been found to be in the shape of 3dx2–y2 orbital of an electron in an atom. This time, model of hole-pairs in transport along c-axis in cuprate superconductors is proposed. In ab-plane, hole-pairs are formed along CuO2 plane;one hole-pair covering 9 - 10 two dimensional CuO2 unit cells in 3dx2–y2 configuration. In the investigation of c-axis hole-pairs, cuprate superconductors have been sub-divided into three categories depending on the number of CuO2 planes/formula unit. There is a little different treatment for finding out the order parameter in each category. Coherence lengths along ab-planes are of the order of a few tens of Angstroms, whereas along c-axis, they are less than even their a-, b-lattice constants. In cuprates with 2 or 3 CuO2 planes, the order parameter is of 3dz2–x2 type in zx-plane with lobes along both the axes much constrained. For cuprates with a single CuO2 layer, the order parameter is of 3dx2–y2 type, but its dimensions are less than a-, b-lattice constants.展开更多

The "birth and death" method is used in ANSYS to simulate the filler metal deposition and the heat generation and weld pool simulation are conducted accordingly with the double ellipsoid configuration as proposed by Goldak et al. The model takes into consideration the temperature dependent non-linear material properties and uses a new formulation to compute the temperature dependent combined coefficient of heat loss. Improvements in the calculation are achieved by combining two types of meshing. The FE simulation is divided into two consecutive parts: the thermal simulation followed by the structural simulation. The results of the numerical model are compared to experiments.展开更多

文摘A hot-press tackified preform was used to improve the uniformity of the laminates thickness and the mechanical properties of the obtained laminates were studied using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding(VARTM). Two modified preforms were prepared under 0.1 and 0.6 MPa in an autoclave and then were used to fabricate the laminates via VARTM. Permeability and thickness distribution of the laminates were obtained by using a special device. Moreover, the tensile and compressive strengths of the obtained laminates were studied and compared with the unmodified ones. Results show that the tackified laminates present a maximum and minimum thickness under 0.1 and 0.6 MPa, respectively. The thicknesses and in-plane permeability of the tackified laminates, with better thickness uniformity, are significantly decreased compared with that of the unmodified cases, while the tensile and compressive strengths of the tackified laminates are improved obviously. Results show that the mechanical property of the tackified laminates prepared by hotpressing at 0.1 MPa is better than that processed at 0.6 MPa.

文摘Pressure-assisted sinter bonding was performed in air at 250−350℃ using a preform comprising copper formate particles to form a bondline that is sustainable at high temperatures.H2 and CO generated concurrently by the pyrolysis of copper formate at 210℃ during the sinter bonding removed the native oxide and other oxides grown on bulk Cu finishes,enabling interface bonding.Moreover,Cu produced in situ by the reduction of Cu(II)accelerated the sinter bonding.Consequently,the bonding achieved at 300−350℃ under 5 MPa exhibited sufficient shear strength of 20.0−31.5 MPa after 180−300 min of sinter bonding.In addition,an increase in pressure to 10 MPa resulted in shear strength of 21.9 MPa after an extremely short time of 30 s at 250℃,and a near-full-density bondline was achieved after 300 s.The obtained results indicate the promising potential of the preform comprising copper formate particles for high-speed sinter bonding.

The topic of how to improve the utilization of charge of have been drawing great attention from researchers and designer in this filed. In present paper,in order to investigate the influence of charge initiation manners on the scattering characteristics of semi-preformed fragment warhead, the numerical simulations and experimental test are conducted.Firstly, the influence of grid density on numerical results is investigated, and a proper numerical model with relatively high accuracy and effectiveness is determined. Then. numerical simulations of three kinds of different initiation position of a semi-preformed fragment warhead are carried out. An experimental test of the explosion of a semi-preformed fragment warhead is carried out. By comparing and analyzing the numerical results and experimental data, it is found that the initiation manners have great influence on scattering characteristics of semi-preformed fragment warhead. The researcher work of this paper would provide an effective alternative method to optimize the design of warhead.
文摘Model of hole-pairs in electrical transport along ab plane in cuprate superconductors has already been proposed. It has been found to be in the shape of 3dx2–y2 orbital of an electron in an atom. This time, model of hole-pairs in transport along c-axis in cuprate superconductors is proposed. In ab-plane, hole-pairs are formed along CuO2 plane;one hole-pair covering 9 - 10 two dimensional CuO2 unit cells in 3dx2–y2 configuration. In the investigation of c-axis hole-pairs, cuprate superconductors have been sub-divided into three categories depending on the number of CuO2 planes/formula unit. There is a little different treatment for finding out the order parameter in each category. Coherence lengths along ab-planes are of the order of a few tens of Angstroms, whereas along c-axis, they are less than even their a-, b-lattice constants. In cuprates with 2 or 3 CuO2 planes, the order parameter is of 3dz2–x2 type in zx-plane with lobes along both the axes much constrained. For cuprates with a single CuO2 layer, the order parameter is of 3dx2–y2 type, but its dimensions are less than a-, b-lattice constants.

文摘Improved Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) technology and equipment were established.Void content and morphology of the 3-D braided preform/phenolic composite were investigated using different RTM processes.The results showed that void content of the vacuum and compression co-assisted RTM process was the lowest.Void morphologies of the specimen cross-section were analyzed with metallographic microscope.In traditional RTM process,the crack of cross-section was in evidence.In vacuum assisted RTM process,the void shape was divided into three categories:irregular crack,triangle,rotundity and ellipse.The most voids distributed in resin rich areas and were observed as large void based on equivalent diameter.In compression assisted RTM,vacuum and compression co-assisted RTM process,the polygonal voids mostly existed inter tows.Void size was mainly intermediate and small based equivalent diameter separately.
文摘A new geometric model of Multiaxial Warp-Knitted (MWK) performs, which is based on the experimental observations and analysis of basic stitch, is developed to relate the geometric parameters and process variables. The fiber volume fraction and fibre orientation of MWK reinforced composites are described in terms of structural and processing parameters in the model. And this model provides a basis for the prediction of mechanical behavior of the MWK reinforced composites.
文摘This paper presents the Finite Element (FE) modeling of a two-seam welding process for a T-joint with a V chamfer preparation: The aim of the model is to predict the deformations, distortions and residual stresses resulting from the welding of the plates and experiments have been carried out in order to compare to the FE model. The "birth and death" method is used in ANSYS to simulate the filler metal deposition and the heat generation and weld pool simulation are conducted accordingly with the double ellipsoid configuration as proposed by Goldak et al. The model takes into consideration the temperature dependent non-linear material properties and uses a new formulation to compute the temperature dependent combined coefficient of heat loss. Improvements in the calculation are achieved by combining two types of meshing. The FE simulation is divided into two consecutive parts: the thermal simulation followed by the structural simulation. The results of the numerical model are compared to experiments.

文摘The a-preformation factors of medium and heavy-mass nuclei are calculated by using the cluster-formation model.The obtained preformation factors of even–even,odd-A,and odd–odd nuclei consist in both magnitude and trend with the general features predicted by standard calculations.The variation of a clustering affected by the evolution of nuclear structure is observed from different behaviors of preformation factors.We typically analyze the variation of preformation factors in the closed-shell N =126 and Z =82 regions,and discuss in detail the structural effects on a-cluster formation.This work shows the strong correlation between a-preformation factors and the shell structure,which would be a useful reference for microscopic cluster-model calculations of a-decay half-lives.
