High Temperature Property Development of Bauxite Based Bricks

Physical properties and microstructural evolution on firing of 3 types of bauxite based refractory bricks were carried out using techniques such as porosimetry,XRD and SEM.The groups differed from each other by progressive refining of the matrix or bond phase.It is revealed that such a refinement of the matrix can improve the high temperature properties of the bricks made from poor grade materials.     

Effect of Sb implantation on copper silicides formation and morphology after annealing of Cu/Si structures

In this work, the solid state reaction between a thin film of copper and silicon has been studied using Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and microprobe analysis. Cu films of 400 and 900 Å thicknesses are thermally evaporated on Si(1 1 1) substrates, part of them had previously been implanted with antimony ions of 5×10¹⁴ or 5×10¹⁵ at. cm⁻² doses. The samples are heat-treated in vacuum at temperatures in the range 200–700 °C for various times. The results show the growth and formation of Cu₃Si and Cu₄Si silicides under crystallites shape dispatched on the sample surface, independently of the implantation dose. On the other hand, it is established that the copper layer is less and less consumed as the antimony dose increases, resulting in the accumulation of Sb⁺ ions at silicide/Si interface and in the silicide layer close to surface. The exposure of samples to air at room temperature shows the stability of Cu₄Si phase whereas the Cu₃Si silicide disappears to the benefit of the silicon dioxide formation. The observed phenomena are discussed.     

Synthesis of ZSM‐5 Films and Monoliths with Bimodal Micro/Mesoscopic Structures

A route to synthesize ZSM‐5 crystals with a bimodal micro/mesoscopic pore system has been developed in this study; the successful incorporation of the mesopores within the ZSM‐5 structure was performed using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH)‐impregnated mesoporous materials containing carbon nanotubes in the pores, which were encapsulated in the ZSM‐5 crystals during a solid rearrangement process within the framework. Such mesoporous ZSM‐5 zeolites can be readily obtained as powders, thin films, or monoliths.     

Fracture and deformation properties of Ni-Fe superalloy in cryogenic high magnetic field environments

The present paper includes experimental and analytical data on the fracture properties of a nickel-iron superalloy, a ferromagnetic austenite, at 4 K in magnetic fields of 0 and 6 T. The tensile, notch tensile and small punch tests are employed. A finite element analysis is also performed to convert the experimentally measured load-displacement data into useful engineering information. To interpret the results we review the available theory of the influence of magnetic field on the stress intensity factor for a crack in ferromagnetic materials.     

河口海岸近底层潮流速分布模式初步研究

许多现场实测资料表明,潮流近底流速剖面偏离传统的对数分布。虽然偏离值可能不大,但利用对数剖面去计算河底粗糙长度和剪切应力时会引起较大的误差。有研究者的数值试验表明,如果通过流速是对数分布来估计粗糙长度和底部切应力,偏差可能超过100%(Kuo等,1996)。本文从流体动力学原理出发,利用Prandtl混合长度和Von Karman自相似理论,建立河口海岸近底层潮流速分布的对数线性模式。通过对英国大陆南部西Solent水道实测水流垂向分布进行枚举粗糙长度z0结合最小二乘法拟合,并将计算结果与传统的对数模式的结果比较,表明本文模式有以下优点:①精度高,计算值更接近实测值;②所确定的粗糙长度z0和摩阻流速u*的相关系数更高,且两者在相位上更趋一致。     

微桥法镍膜的弹性模量和残余应力测量

利用MEMS技术制作了不同尺寸的镍(Ni)膜微桥结构样品。采用纳米压痕仪XP系统测量了微桥载荷与位移的关系,并结合微桥力学理论模型得到了两种不同尺寸的Ni膜的弹性模量和残余应力。结果表明,两种不同尺寸的Ni膜的弹性模量结果一致,为190 GPa左右,但是残余应力变化较大。与采用纳米压痕仪直接测得的带有硅(Si)基底的Ni膜弹性模量186.8 7.5 GPa相比较,两者符合较好。
