On the behavior of microstructures with multiple length scales

The current study aims to provide fundamental insight into the behavior of microstructures containing grain sizes that span multiple length scales. A commercial 5083 Al alloy was selected as the material of interest to facilitate comparison with recently published data. The materials studied here were prepared via the thermal consolidation of powders that were cryomilled for different times (i.e., 0, 2, 4, and 8 hours). Following consolidation, the resultant microstructure was characterized by an equiaxed grain morphology with a size distribution centered around 200∼300 nm. Dispersed among the 200- to 300-nm grains were coarse-grained regions or ligaments with a grain size ranging from 600 nm to 2 μm. The occurrence of coarse-grained regions is rationalized on the basis of recrystallization or subgrain coarsening, whereas the occurrence of equiaxed fine regions is proposed to be a result of continuous grain growth. Two types of microstructures were selected for study, containing coarse-grained volumes of approximately 28 pct and 43 pct that corresponded to an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 566 MPa and 535 MPa, and a fracture strain of 3.2 pct and 3.5 pct, respectively. The observed ductility and the relevant toughening mechanisms were discussed in light of the presence of multiple length scales.     

A study on UV-curable coatings for HD-DVD: Primer and top coats

This study relates to the development of coatings for optical discs in high-density digital versatile disc systems (HD-DVD or blue lay disk) that use a high numerical aperture of 0.85 at 405 nm wavelength and have a protective top layer over a primer layer for protection against damage and dust. Ultraviolet-curable raw materials of two acrylic monofunctional monomers ( isobornylacrylate, IBA and tetrahydrofurfurylacrylate, THFA) and two kinds of urethaneacrylate oligomers (OUMD and OUME) have been easily mixed with photoinitiators. Curing rate of these materials was characterized by FT-IR. In case of top coats, VTES (vinyltriethoxysilane) and acrylic acid were added to enhance the abrasion resistance. These two kinds of UV-curable resinous materials having no solvent were synthesized and investigated as means for making a blue ray disk having good optical and mechanical properties. In addition, dynamic characteristics including reflectivity, fluctuation of RF signal and noise level were also investigated.     

膨胀岩工程特性试验研究

为研究南水北调中线工程膨胀岩的工程特性,选取新乡潞王坟段的代表性岩层——强风化黏土岩和泥灰岩的原状样及扰动样,进行了物理性质试验、击实试验、力学性质试验以及膨胀特性试验。试验成果表明:对扰动样的标准击实基本上很难达到天然状态下的干密度状态,土体的结构性在击实过程中不能得到较好的恢复;初始含水率越小,吸湿能力越大,其强度降低程度越大,饱和强度参数越小;含水率低的试样,其破坏强度大,但破坏应变小;相同的压实度下,含水率越低试样的软化现象越明显;相同压实度的土样,含水率越大,其初始切线模量越小;压实度在90%~98%,压实度越大,膨胀力与膨胀率越大;随着压实度超过98%,膨胀率与压实度关系曲线存在一峰值转折点,而且此峰值点出现在压实度为98%~100%。压力与膨胀率关系曲线分两直线段:一陡降段和一平缓段,各曲线之间近似平行,曲线截距为无荷膨胀率数值。该成果为南水北调中线工程膨胀岩渠坡段的设计施工提供了科学依据。

Mechanical properties of iron processed by severe plastic deformation

In the present study, the mechanical properties of Fe processed via severe plastic deformation (equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP)) at room temperature were investigated for the first time. The grain size of annealed Fe, with an initial grain size of about 200 μm, was reduced drastically during ECAP. After eight passes, the grain size reaches 200 to 400 nm, as documented by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The value of microhardness during pressing increases 3 times over that of the starting material after the first pass and increases slightly during subsequent pressing for higher-purity Fe. Examination of the value of microhardness after eight passes as a function of post-ECAP annealing temperature shows a transition from recovery to recrystallization, an observation that resembles the behavior reported for heavily deformed metals and alloys. The tensile and compression behaviors were examined. In tension, a drop in the engineering stress-engineering strain curve beyond maximum load was observed both in the annealed Fe and the ECAP Fe. This drop is related to the neck deformation. The fracture surface, examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), shows vein patterns, which is different from the dimples found on the fracture surface of annealed Fe. In compression, an initial strain-hardening region followed by a no-strain-hardening region was observed in the ECAP Fe. The yield strength in tension of the ECAP Fe was observed to be higher than that in compression. The strengthening mechanisms and softening behavior are discussed.     

Optical signal routing using emission packet positioning of semiconductor heterostructure

We present a novel optical switching technique utilizing emission packet positioning of semiconductor heterostructure. A modulation-doped p-AlGaAs-GaAs heterostructure is employed to control spontaneous emission packet positioning with electric fields. Emission packets generated by optical input signals are brought over 150 /spl mu/m with electric fields, so the output fibers can detect the emission intensity as signals. The first-order analysis indicates that the drift velocity of minority electrons in GaAs limits the detectable maximum data rate and nanoseconds timescale signal routing operation at 20 Gb/s is possible at an electron drift velocity of 2/spl times/10/sup 7/ cm/s.

Development of a Tunable Multiband UWB Radar Sensor and Its Applications to Subsurface Sensing

Development of a new tunable multiband ultra-wideband (UWB) radar sensor is presented. The UWB sensor integrates the transmitter, receiver, and antennas completely in a single package using microwave integrated circuits and operates over multiple pulse durations or frequency bands. The sensor can transmit pulses with duration varying from 450 to 1170 ps and peak power from 200 to 400 mW and can detect signals with a conversion gain of 6.5-9.5 dB and a dynamic range of 50dB over a 5.5-GHz RF bandwidth. It has a range resolution of around 1 in. The sensor performs well through tests of various samples, demonstrating its success for subsurface sensing. The multipulse/multiband feature allows the sensor to achieve both fine-range resolution and long operating range and enhanced target detection and classification

普通碳素钢在CSP连轧过程中的组织演变

在CSP机组上，通过普通碳素钢(Q235)的轧卡试验研究了该钢在连轧过程中的组织演变过程。结果表明：高温区的两道次大变形使原始铸造树枝晶通过再结晶基本实现了奥氏体的等轴化和组织的均匀化；进一步变形可继续细化原始奥氏体并最终获得晶粒尺寸约为30μm的、均匀的等轴晶组织。在CSP工艺中，原始奥氏体组织细化可能与精轧总压下量高、单道次变形量大、应变速率高及钢中出现异常析出物等因素有关。
