A1/B4C composite strips were produced in this work by a modified accumulative roll bonding process where the strips were rotated 90° around the normal direction between successive passes. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses reveal the development of nanostructures in the Al matrix after seven passes. It is found that the B4C reinforcement distribution in the matrix is improved by progression of the process. Additionally, the tensile yield strength and elongation of the processed materials are increased with the increase of passes.展开更多

In order to improve the saline soil subgrade, dynamic compaction （DC） and rolling compaction （RC） technology were applied on the Qarhan-Golmud Highway in Qinghai Province, China. A field experi- ment was conducted in which shear strength, deformation modulus, and the working mechanism of the composite foun- dation were analyzed after reinforcement. Both the DC and RC methods were found to be effective and helped to improve the foundation strength of saline soils, although the ultimate bearing capacity and deformation modulus of the RC method were lower than that of the DC method.展开更多
