Experimental and numerical assessment of energy absorption capacity of thin-walled Al 5083 tube produced by PTCAP process

The energy absorption capacity of the Al5083 thin-walled tube produced by parallel tubular angular pressing (PTCAP) process was evaluated. Also, microstructure, mechanical properties, and anisotropy coefficients were studied in the peripheral and axial directions. Results showed that values of energy absorption decreased with processing pass increasing and the values for the unprocessed, first and second passes were obtained to be 167, 161.4 and 160.7 J, respectively. The differences between the simulation results for the energy absorption values and their experimental values for the unprocessed, the first and the second PTCAP passes samples are about 5%, 10%, and 13%, respectively. The energy absorption capacity was related to the anisotropy coefficient and microstructure. The results demonstrated that grain refinement occurred and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and microhardness after the first and second PTCAP passes were enhanced, while the increase rate in the first pass was much severer. Also, by applying PTCAP, the deformation modes were altered, such that the deformation mode of the annealed tube was quite symmetrical and circular while for the first and second passes there have been triple and double lobes diamond. The results of the numerical simulation for the deformation mode of the annealed and PTCAPed tubes were consistent with the experimental results. The deformation mode of tubes is dependent on their mechanical properties and variation of the mechanical properties during PTCAP process.     

A review of particulate-reinforced aluminum matrix composites fabricated by selective laser melting

Selective laser melting (SLM) is an emerging layer-wise additive manufacturing technique that can generate complex components with high performance. Particulate-reinforced aluminum matrix composites (PAMCs) are important materials for various applications due to the combined properties of Al matrix and reinforcements. Considering the advantages of SLM technology and PAMCs, the novel SLM PAMCs have been developed and researched in recent years. Therefore, the current research progress about the SLM PAMCs is reviewed. Firstly, special attention is paid to the solidification behavior of SLM PAMCs. Secondly, the important issues about the design and fabrication of high-performance SLM PAMCs, including the selection of reinforcement, the influence of parameters on the processing and microstructure, the defect evolution and phase control, are highlighted and discussed comprehensively. Thirdly, the performance and strengthening mechanism of SLM PAMCs are systematically figured out. Finally, future directions are pointed out on the advancement of high-performance SLM PAMCs.     

Synthesis of blue-emitting AlN:Eu2+ spherical phosphors by carbothermal reduction nitridation method

In this study, blue-emitting AlN:Eu²⁺ spherical phosphors were successfully synthesized for the first time by the carbothermal reduction nitridation (CRN) method, assisted with high nitrogen pressure, appropriate synthesis temperature, and the addition of CaF₂. The influence of typical experimental parameters, such as N₂ pressure, heating temperature, CaF₂ content and Eu²⁺ concentration on the morphologies and luminescence properties of AlN phosphors were comprehensively investigated. The formation mechanism of spherical morphology were significantly proffered, indicating that sufficient liquid Ca-aluminates during the AlN growth stage were essential for the spheroidization process under the action of surface tension. The synthesized AlN:Eu²⁺ spherical phosphors presented an intense blue emission band centered in the range of 427- 476 nm relative to the reaction temperature. The lifetime of AlN:Eu²⁺ phosphor was calculated to be around 1.89 μs. The temperature-dependent PL spectra suggested that the emission band did not shift until 225°C. In addition, the spectral analysis strongly suggested that the luminescence property of AlN:Eu²⁺ phosphors was significantly enhanced by the large particle size, spherical morphology, reduced impurity content, and appropriate Eu²⁺ concentration.     

Experimental research on temperature rise and electric characteristics of aluminum air battery under open‐circuit condition for new energy vehicle

Due to lack of systematic research on open‐circuit voltage (OCV) and electrolyte temperature rise characteristics of aluminum air battery, in order to explore the influential factors on the OCV and electrolyte temperature rise of aluminum air battery, in this paper, for the first time, we studied the effects of different ambient temperature conditions, different concentrations of NaOH and KOH electrolyte, and pure aluminum and aluminum alloy on the OCV and electrolyte temperature rise of aluminum air battery. Results show that the OCV of aluminum air battery is obviously affected by ambient temperature conditions, electrolyte concentration, and different anode materials. The OCV range is 1.5 to 1.8 V at 0°C under different KOH‐electrolyte concentrations when aluminum alloy is used as anode material; with the increase of ambient temperature, the OCV will rise, and the range is 1.8 to 1.95 V. The working process of aluminum air battery is accompanied by the phenomenon of heat release, and the temperature rise range of electrolyte will not exceed 7°C when aluminum alloy is used as the anode material; however, the highest temperature of the electrolyte can reach 100°C when pure aluminum is used as the negative electrode material. The results of this study will provide theoretical guidance for designing aluminum air batteries and identifying their optimal operating conditions.     

Adaptive neural network command filtered backstepping control of pure‐feedback systems in presence of full state constraints

An adaptive neural network (NN) command filtered backstepping control is proposed for the pure‐feedback system subjected to time‐varying output/stated constraints. By introducing a one‐to‐one nonlinear mapping, the obstacle caused by full stated constraints is conquered. The adaptive control law is constructed by command filtered backstepping technology and radial basis function NNs, where only one learning parameter needs to be updated online. The stability analysis via nonlinear small‐gain theorem shows that all the signals in closed‐loop system are semiglobal uniformly ultimately bounded. The simulation examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
