The new concept of crop yield under average climate conditions was defined in this paper, which was affected by advancement of science and technology. Based on the new concept of crop yield, the time series techniques relying on past yield data was employed to set up a forecasting model. The model was tested by using average grain yields of Liaoning Province in China from 1949 to 2005. The testing combined dynamic n-choosing and micro tendency rectification, and an average forecasting error was 1.24%. In the trend line of yield change, and then a yield turning point might occur, in which case the inflexion model was used to solve the problem of yield turn point.展开更多

Recent works demonstrated that the synergy could be enhanced by grain-size reduction. However, the mechanism of grain-size dependence is still a mystery. In this work, bulk pure Ni produced by electrodeposition and subsequent annealing, with grain sizes ranging from ∼20 nm to ∼20 µm, were methodically investigated to unravel the mechanism of the grain-size effect on dislocation source-limited hardening and ductilization. The high-density nano-twinning in the as-electrodeposited nanograined specimens exhibited better thermodynamic stability than the peers with random high-angle grain boundaries, leading to fine recrystallized grains with low-density dislocations. The low dislocation density enabled extra hardening beyond grain boundary strengthening via yield-point behavior with grain sizes ranging from ∼110 nm to ∼10 µm and extra ductilization over ∼500 nm. This work demonstrated that the prerequisite for dislocation source-limited hardening was that the dislocation density of the specimen should be lower than the size-dependent critical value of ((1.1 × 107 /d ) m^(–2), d is the grain size in unit of the meter) where a transition from forest-dominated hardening to dislocation source-limited hardening could occur. On the other hand, dislocation source-limited ductilization only worked when the grain size was comparable to/larger than the theoretical dislocation mean slip distance. Dislocation source-limited ductilization resulted from more room in grains for accumulation of dislocations and deformation nano-stacking faults enabling the higher work hardening rate. This work offered an altogether new avenue to obtain stronger and more ductile metallic materials through utilizing grain-size dependent dislocation source-limited hardening and ductilization.展开更多

The thermodynamic calculation and theoretical analysis were used to determine the optimal heat treatment parameters. The Q & P samples exhibited relatively higher strength with relatively low ductility, mainly due to the hard martensite matrix, which resulted in continuous yielding behavior upon loading, whereas the IA samples showed the significantly improved ductility, which benefited from the more sufficient transformation-induced plasticity(TRIP) effects and the softer ultrafine ferrite matrix. The dependence of yield point elongation(YPE) of IA samples on grain size demonstrated that the YPE value was in the reverse proportional relationship to the average grain size, which agreed well with theoretical analysis.展开更多
