Effects of Cu on the corrosion behavior and microstructure of Mg–Zn–Ca bulk metallic glass

For the purpose of developing biodegradable magnesium alloys with suitable properties for biomedical applications, Mg–Zn–Ca–Cu metallic glasses were prepared by copper mold injection methods. In the present work, the effect of Cu doping on mechanical properties, corrosion behavior, and glass-forming ability of Mg₆₆Zn₃₀Ca₄ alloy was studied. The experimental findings demonstrated that the incorporation of Cu decreases the corrosion resistance of alloys, but increases the microhardness and degradation rate slightly. However, the addition of a trace amount of Cu can make the samples have antibacterial properties. Therefore, Mg–Zn–Ca–Cu has great advantages in clinical implantation and is the potential implant material.     

弹性元件参数优化对扑翼机构转速波动影响研究

以特拉华大学机械系统实验室所研制的样机模型进行建模,该模型传动机构采用曲柄摇杆机构.传动机构在运转的过程中,翅翼会在气动力和惯性力作用下产生周期性波动,导致电机转速波动增大,影响机构的平稳运行,产生振动和噪声.在仿真试验中引入弹簧元件,可有效降低电机转速波动,利用正交试验设计方法对影响电机转速波动的影响因素进行极差分析,得出弹簧的连接点位置是主要因素,弹簧的刚度系数是次要因素,弹簧原长影响最小.搭建了物理实验平台,验证了仿真结果和正交试验设计方法的正确性.     

Phase constitution,microstructure and mechanical properties of a Ni-based superalloy specially designed for additive manufacturing

In this study, a kind of Ni-based superalloy specially designed for additive manufacturing (AM) was investigated. Thermo-Calc simulation and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis were used to determine phases and their transformation temperature. Experimental specimens were prepared by laser metal deposition (LMD) and traditional casting method. Microstructure, phase constitution and mechanical properties of the alloy were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission scanning electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and tensile tests. The results show that this alloy contains two basic phases, γ/γ', in addition to these phases, at least two secondary phases may be present, such as MC carbides and Laves phases. Furthermore, the as-deposited alloy has finer dendrite, its mean primary dendrite arm space (PDAS) is about 30-45 μm, and the average size of γ' particles is 100-150 nm. However, the dendrite size of the as-cast alloy is much larger and its PDAS is 300-500 μm with secondary and even third dendrite arms. Correspondingly, the alloy displays different tensile behavior with different processing methods, and the as-deposited specimen shows better ultimate tensile stress (1,085.7±51.7 MPa), yield stress (697±19.5 MPa) and elongation (25.8%±2.2%) than that of the as-cast specimen. The differences in mechanical properties of the alloy are due to the different morphology and size of dendrites, γ', and Laves phase, and the segregation of elements, etc. Such important information would be helpful for alloy application as well as new alloy development.

小型无线场强探测传感器研究

近年来,微波加热因其高效性和清洁无污染等优点广泛应用于各个领域。然而,微波加热的不均匀性限制了微波作为高效加热能源的应用。通过测量和分析加热腔中的电场分布情况可以帮助设计人员改进微波加热腔体设计,提高微波加热的均匀性。现有的场强测量设备均为有线设备,应用场景极为有限。因此,本文提出了一种由探头、接收机和上位机三部分组成的无线场强探测传感器。介绍了无线场强探测传感器的结构和原理,采用横电磁波小室进行校准。通过一系列测量实验表明实测值与标准场强仪测量值一致性较好,可满足工程测量需求。     

Feasibility study of large-scale mass customization 3D printing framework system with a case study on Nanjing Happy Valley East Gate

At present, the development and implementation of digital transformation are the keys to promoting high-quality industry development. The new digital fabrication method of robotic 3D printing is a research area being studied by many to tackle the issue of the declining productivity of traditional construction methods. Although many studies have been done, most of the current 3D printing projects are facing limitations in terms of scale. In order to bridge the gap, this article proposed a mass customization 3D printing framework system for large-scale projects. This article discusses how mass customization is made possible through the joint operation of the FUROBOT software and 3D printing hardware. By taking the east gate of Nanjing Happy Valley Plaza as a case study, the article demonstrates and studies the feasibility of the large-scale mass customization 3D printing framework system.
