DYNAMIC RECOVERY AND DYNAMIC RECRYSTALLIZATION OF 7005 ALUMINIUM ALLOY DURING HOT COMPRESSION

Dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallizatin behaviors of AA7005 aluminium alloy (Al - Zn - Mg) during hot compression are investigated by isothermal compression testing.The interdependence of flow stress,stress, strain rate,true strain and deformation temperature for the alloy is analyzed by introduc- ing Zener-Hollomon parameter. A steady - state flow of the 7005 alloy is confirmed to be a thermal- ly activated process.which is governed by rate-controlling mechanisms of dislocations.A hyperbolic sine relationship can satisfactorily correlate temperature, strain rate with flow stress through an Arrhe- nius term that involves thermal activation parameters. The dynamic recovery mechanisms of the alloy are discussed.Cross- slip of jogged screw dislocations is the main dynamic recovery mechanism over the deformation temperatures and strain rates.Subgrains are highly developed in the originally elongat- ed grains.The size of the subgrain increases with decrease of the natural logarithm of Zener- Hol - lomon parameter.Local dynamic recrystallization is operative when the alloy is deformed at temperature of 500℃ and strain rate of 0. 001s - 1.

Dynamic recovery for survivable virtual network embedding

Network virtualization is a promising way to overcome the current ossification of the Intemet. It is essential challenge to find effective, efficient and robust embedding algorithms for recovering virtual network. The virtual network mapping algorithm based on integer programming which was proposed months ago. But it did consider the faults of physical network resources, which is so called survivable virtual network embedding （VNE） problem. Previous strategies for enabling survivability in network virtualization focused on providing protection for the physical network or enhancing the virtual networks by providing backup physical resources in advance, and treated all the physical failures as link failures. In the article, a dynamic recovery method is proposed to solve the survivable virtual network embedding problem based on the integer programming VNE algorithm. The dynamic recovery method doesn＇t need to backup physical resources and it makes more substrate resources which can be used in the embedding. The dynamic recovery process will be activated only when physical failures occur. Different algorithms are used to recovery node and link failures. Simulations show that the method helps to recover almost all of physical failures by finding the substitute nodes and paths, and its performance is very close to that of pure VNE method without considering physical failures.

Analysis on Dynamic Dielectric Recovery and Statistical Property of Vacuum Circuit-Breakers with Multi-Breaks

Based on the dynamic dielectric recovery process in the vacuum gaps in series, investigations were made on post-arc insulation state in double and multi-breaks operation in high voltage power system. From the research on the breakdown weak points in high voltage vacuum gaps, their turnout and distribution, some theoretic work were made to set up the models for describing the statistical property of multi-breaks vacuum circuit-breakers' breakdown and post-arc re-strike, which can be used for explaining the mechanism of the improvement in the breaking capacity of multi-breaks units compared with that of single-break ones which have the same equivalent gap length. The advantages of vacuum breakers with multi-breaks are proposed.

Dynamic recrystallization of electroformed copper liners of shaped charges in high-strain-rate plastic deformation

The microstructures in the electroformed copper liners of shapedcharges after high-strain-rate plastic deformation were in-vestigated by transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Meanwhile, theorientation distribution of the grains in the recovered slug wasexamined by the electron backscattering Kikuchipattern(EBSP)technique. EBSP analysis illustrated that unlike theas-formed electro- formed copper liners of shaped charges the grainorientations in the recovered slug are distributed along randomly allthe directions after undergoing heavily strain deformation athigh-strain rate. Optical microscopy shows a typicalrecrystallization structure, and TEM exam- ination revealsdislocation cells existed in the thin foil specimen. These resultsindicate that dynamic recovery and recrystallization occur duringthis plastic deformation process, and the associated deformationtemperature is considered to be higher than 0.6 times the meltingpoint of copper.

Deformation behavior and microstructure of an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy during hot deformation

The hot deformation behavior and microstructures of Al-7055 commercial alloy were investigated by axisymmetric hot compres- sion at temperatures ranging from 300℃ to 450℃ and strain rates from 10^-2 to 10 s^-1, respectively. Microstructures of deformed 7055 alloy were investigated by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The dependence of peak stress on deformation temperature and strain rate can be expressed by the hyperbolic-sine type equation. The hot deformation activation energy of the alloy is 146 kJ/mol. Moreover, the flow stress curves predicted by the modified constitutive equations are reasonably consistent with the experimental results, which confirms that the proposed deformation constitutive equations can provide evidence for the selection of hot forming parameters. TEM results indicate that dy- namic recovery is the main softening mechanism during hot deformation.

Microstructure evolution of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy during hot deformation

Compression tests of the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr（7055） alloy were performed at various strains and temperatures from 300 to 450℃ under a con- stant strain rate between 10^-2 s^-1and 1 s^-1. Microstructures during hot deformation were studied by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. Dislocation density, dislocation cells and subgrains of the deformed samples were investigated in detail and compared to make a better understanding of the microstructure evolution. The results showed that stress-strain curves under the experimental conditions belonged to the type of dynamic recovery. When the alloy deformed at various strains and 300℃, the microstructure underwent a process of disordered dislocations to cell structure, subgrain structure and subgrain coarsening. With the temperature increasing, subgrains grew and dislocation density in the interior decreased at a strain rate of 1 s^-1. At the temperature of 350℃, the average diameter of subgrains decreased, sub-boundaries broadened and dislocation density in the interior decreased when the strain rate was increased. The deformed samples of 7055 alloy had smaller subgrains than that of 7005 alloy at the same compression condition because of high alloy content.

Influence of welding speed on microstructure formation in friction-stir-welded 304 austenitic stainless steels

The influence of welding speed on the joint microstructures of an austenitic stainless steel(ASS)produced by friction stir welding(FSW)was investigated.The FSW process was conducted using a rotational speed of 400 r/min and welding speeds of 50 and 150 mm/min.The study was carried out using electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD)technique in different regions of the resultant stir zones(SZs).The results show that the texture of the advancing side(AS)was mainly composed of C{001}〈110〉and cube{001}〈100〉texture components along with partial B/B{112}〈110〉component.Moving from the AS toward the center and the retreating side(RS),the cube texture component disappeared and the A;/A*{111}(112)component developed and predominated the other components.Higher welding speed greatly affected and decreased the intensity of the textures in the resultant SZs.Moreover,higher welding speed(lower heat input)resulted in lower frequency of cube texture in the AS.

Hot deformation behavior of FGH96 superalloys

The hot deformation behavior of FGH96 superalloys at 1070-1170℃ and 5×10^-4-2×10^-1 s^-1 were investigated by means of the isothermal compression tests at a Gleeble-1500 thermal mechanical simulator. The results show that dynamic recovery acts as the main softening mechanism below 2×10^-3 s^-1, whereas dynamic recrystallization acts as the main softening mechanism above 2× 10^-3 s^-1 during deformation; the temperature increase caused by the deformation and the corresponding softening stress is negligible; the thermal-mechanical constitutive model to describe the hot deformation behavior is given, and the value of the apparent deformation activation energy （Qdef） is determined to be 354.93 kJ/mol.

Research on the Characteristics of Hot Deformation in BT20 Titanium alloy and Its Optimum Spinning Temperature Range

Hot compression tests were conducted on a Gleeble-1500 simulator to investigate the hot deformation behavior of BT20 Ti alloy （Ti-6Al-2Zr-IMo-1V） in the temperature range from 550 to 1000℃ at constant strain rate in the range of 0.01-1s^-1, and then the optimum spinning temperature range was determined. Moreover, tube spinning experiments were executed to verify the reasonability of the optimum temperature range. The results show that the flow stress declines gradually with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate. In α＋β phase region the dynamic recrystallization is the main softening mechanism and in β phase region the hot deformation softening is controlled by dynamic recovery. In α＋β phase region with reducing strain rate dynamic recrystallization is fully developed. The optimum temperature of hot spinning is 850-900℃ and that of warm spinning is 600-650℃. Meanwhile, at the temperature above 600℃ tubular workpieces of BT20 Ti alloy have been spun without surface cracks and microstructure inhomogeneity, which proves that the optimum spinning temperature range obtained through hot compression experiments is reasonable.

Deformation Behavior of 6063 Aluminum Alloy During High-Speed Compression

The deformation behavior characteristics of 6063 aluminum alloy were studied experimentally by isothermal compression tests on a Gleeble- 1500 thermal-mechanical simulator. Cylindrical specimens of 14mm in height and 10mm in diameter were compressed dynamically at temperatures ranging from 473 to 723K and at higher strain rntes from 5 to 30s^-1. It is fouud that the flow curves not only depend on the strain rate and temperature but nlso on the dynamic recovery aud recrystallization behavior. The results show that the flow stress decreased with the increase of temperature, while increased with the increase of strain rate. The discontinuous dynamic recrystallization （DDRX） may take place at a high strain rate of 20s^-1 under the tested conditions. At 30s^-1 , the flow curve can exhibit,flow softening due to the effect of temperature rise that raised the temperature by aboat 32K in less than 0.05s.

SIMULATION OF NONPROPORTIONAL CYCLICEXPERIMENTS OF IN738LC AT 850℃

In the previous paper, in order to express steadystate ratchetting, the present s extended the cyclic plasticity model proposed by Ohno and Wang (1993), and the validity of the extended model was discussed on the basis of uniaxial ratchetting experiments of 316FR steel at room temperature. In the present paper, the validity of the extended model is discussed further on the basis of nonproportional experiments of IN738LC at 850 such as multiaxial ratchetting, multiaxial cyclic stress relaxation, circular cyclic straining with strain hold, and so on. Predictions based on the OhnoWang model as well as the ArmstrongFrederick model are also given for the sake of comparison. It is shown that the extended model is capable of simulating the nonproportional experiments accurately, and especially that the extended model can predict much less steadystate ratchetting than the ArmstrongFrederick model. It is also shown that the extended model provides almost the same predictions as the OhnoWang and th

Microstructural evolution in electroformed nickel shaped-charge liners with nano-sized grains undergone deformation at ultrahigh strain rate

Nickel shaped-charge liners with nano-sized grains were prepared by the electroforming technique, and the deformation at ultrahigh strain rate was performed by explosive detonation. The as-formed and post-deformed microstructures of electroformed nickel shaped-charge liners with nano-sized grains were observed by means of transmission electron microscopy, and the orientation distribution of the grains was analyzed by the electron backscattering pattern （EBSP） technique. The melting phenomenon in the jet fragment and the recovery and recrystallization in the slug after plastic deformation at ultrahigh-strain rate were observed in the ultrafine-grained nickel shaped-charge liners. The research evidence shows that dynamic recovery and recrystallization play an important role in plastic deformation at ultrahigh strain rate.

PLASTIC DEFORMATION BEHAVIOR OF ELECTROFORMED COPPER LINER OF SHAPED CHARGE AT DIFFERENT STRAIN RATES

The paper deals with different plastic deformation behavior of electroformed copper liner of shaped charge, deformed at high strain rate (about 1×107s-1) and normal strain rate (4×10-4s-1). The crystallographic orientation distribution of grains in recovered slugs which had undergone high-strain-rate plastic deformation during explosive detonation was investigated by electron backscattering Kikuchi pattern technique. Cellular structures formed by tangled dislocations and sub-grain boundaries consisting of dislocation arrays were detected in the recovered slugs. Some twins and slip dislocations were observed in specimen deformed at normal strain rate. It was found that dynamic recovery and recrystallization take place during high-strain-rate deformation due to the temperature rising, whereas the conventional slip mechanism operates during deformation at normal strain rate.

Dynamic Damage Recovery for Web Databases

In the web context, there is an urgent need for a self-healing database system which has the ability to automatically locate and undo a set of transactions that are corrupted by malicious attacks. The metrics of survivability and availability require a database to provide continuous services during the period of recovery, which is referred to as dynamic recovery. In this paper, we present that an extended read operation from a corrupted data would cause damage spreading. We build a fine grained transaction log to record the extended read and write operations while user transactions are processing. Based on that, we propose a dynamic recovery system to implement the damage repair. The system captures damage spreading caused by extended read-write dependency between transactions. It also retains the execution results for blind write transactions and gives a solution to the issues of recovery conflicts caused by forward recovery. Moreover, a confinement activity is imposed on the in-repairing data to prevent a further damage propagation while the data recovery is processing. The performance evaluation in our experiments shows that the system is reliable and highly efficient.

Microstructure Evolution of AZ31 Mg Alloy during Change Channel Angular Extrusion

Microstructure evolution of AZ31 Mg alloy during change-channel angular extrusion （CCAE） was investigated. The grains of AZ31 Mg alloy were refined significantly from 500 mm to 15 mm after CCAE deformed at 523 K. Dislocations were induced at the initial stage of extrusion and they rearranged themselves to form dislocation boundaries and sub-grain boundaries during deformation. When the specimen through the horizontal change channel with the strain increased, the sub-boundaries evolved to high angle grain boundaries （HAGB）. The process of grain refinement can be described as continuous dynamic recovery and recrystallization （CDRR）.

Thermomechanical Behavior Modeling of a Cr-Ni-Mo-Mn-N Austenitic Stainless Steel

The analytical approach and the thermomechanical behavior of a Cr-Ni-Mo-Mn-N austenitic stainless steel were characterized based on the parameters of work hardening (h), dynamic recovery (r) and dynamic recrystallization (n, t0.5), considering constitutive equations (σ, ε) and deformation conditions expressed according to the Zener-Hollomon parameter (Z). The results indicated that the curves were affected by the deformation conditions and that the stress levels increased with Z under high work hardening rates. The σc/σp ratio was relatively high in the first part of the curves, indicating that softening was promoted by intense dynamic recovery (DRV). This was corroborated by the high values of r and average stacking fault energy, γsfe = 66.86 mJ/m2, which facilitated the thermally activated mechanisms, increasing the effectiveness of DRV and delaying the onset of dynamic recrystallization (DRX). The second part of the curves indicates that there was a delay in the kinetics of dynamic softening, with a higher value of t0.5 and lower values of the Avrami exponent (n) due to the competing DRV-DRX mechanisms, and steady state stress (σss) was achieved under higher rates of deformation.

Multi-stage Dynamic Post-disaster Recovery Strategy for Distribution Networks Considering Integrated Energy and Transportation Networks

To improve the resilience of distribution networks(DNs),a multi-stage dynamic recovery strategy is proposed in this paper,which is designed for post-disaster DN considering an integrated energy system(IES)and transportation network(TN).First,the emergency response quickly increases the output of gas turbines(GTs)in the natural gas network(NGN),and responsively reconfigures the DN in microgrids,to maximize the amount of loads to be restored.The single-commodity flow model is adopted to construct spanning tree constraints.Then,in the second stage of energy storage recovery,mobile energy storage systems(MESSs)are deployed to cover the shortages of power demands,i.e.,to further restore the loads after evaluating the load recovery situation.The Floyd algorithm based dynamic traffic assignment(DTA)is selected to obtain the optimal path of the MESSs.In the third stage,the outputs of various post-disaster recovery measures are adjusted to achieve an economically optimized operation.Case studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed dynamic post-disaster recovery strategy.

Innovated Inertia Control of DFIG with Dynamic Rotor Speed Recovery

High wind power penetration(WPP)is challenging system frequency stability.As a countermeasure,virtual inertia controls are introduced,utilizing kinetic energy(KE)stored in wind turbine generators(WTGs)for frequency regulation.Without restoration,generation efficiency of WTGs will be degraded after inertia contribution.To counter this issue,we propose an inertia control scheme of a doubly fed induction generator(DFIG),aiming at achieving dynamic inertia recovery regarding both KE and DC link energy.An asymmetrical droop control,referred to as the rate of change of frequency(RoCoF),is proposed for KE management.The upper boundary of droop gain is extended to give full play to converters and is revised,considering the system frequency state,to counter positive feedback issues induced by reversible gain regulation,which is restricted by KE to ensure stable operations as well.The inertial DC energy needed to cooperate with KE control regarding countering small fluctuations,is improved with an orderly recovery behavior.Case studies are conducted under dynamic wind conditions and the results indicate that with our proposed scheme,the ability of dynamic inertia recovery can be obtained,bringing DFIG higher generation efficiency and more adequate operation margin for sustained regulation.Essentially,the inertial frequency response and fluctuation suppression ability is well maintained.

Microstructure and Deformation Behavior of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al Alloy during Hot Forming Process

The microstructure evolution and formability of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy related to the initial microstructures and processing variables were investigated during hot forming process. The experimental results show that the α-phase growth is controlled by solute diffusion during the heat treatment processes. Four different microstructures were established by combinations of several heat treatments, and Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy shows excellent formability both above and below the β transus temperature. The alloy possesses low deformation resistance and active restoration mechanism during the deformation. A constitutive equation describing the hot deformation behavior of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy was obtained. Higher fl ow stress was observed for the acicular morphology of α phase in microstructures with large aspect ratios as compared with that of small aspect ratios. Due to the dynamic recovery in soft β phase, and the dynamic recrystallization and breakage of acicular α-phase, fl ow softening occurred signifi cantly during deformation. Dynamic recrystallization also occurred especially in the severely deformed regions of forged parts.
