铸态及喷雾沉积态ZA27合金的阻尼性能比较

利用喷雾沉积快速凝固技术制备了ZA27合金,探讨了该工艺对ZA27合金组织和阻尼性能的影响,并与铸态的同类合金作了对比。结果表明,无论是喷雾沉积态还是铸态,随着频率的减小或温度的升高,ZA27合金的阻尼值增大,且在试验范围内阻尼性能不随应变振幅变化。室温下,喷雾沉积态ZA27合金的阻尼性能高出铸态合金的约1倍,如振动频率为1Hz,30℃时喷雾沉积ZA27合金的阻尼可达1.62×10-2。但当温度高于一定值以上时,铸态的阻尼性能高于喷雾沉积态的。阻尼的这种变化是与其组织密切相关的。     

硅合金化ZA27合金的阻尼性行为

硅合金化ZA27合金具有良好的耐磨性能,但其阻尼性能(Q-1)研究尚不深入.本文利用多功能内耗仪研究了铸态ZA27合金和向ZA27合金中加入4%Si的合金(下称ZA27-4%Si合金)的阻尼行为和相对动态模量,分析了两种合金的阻尼机理.结果表明两种合金的阻尼性能随频率降低和温度升高而增大,阻尼值不随应变振幅变化.ZA27合金和ZA27-4%Si合金具有较高的阻尼性能,在0.1Hz下,合金的室温阻尼分别为6.87×10-3与5.83×10-3.合金的相对动态模量随应变频率提高而增大.100℃以下,ZA27-4%Si合金的相对动态模量不随温度变化.研究表明合金的阻尼是由合金晶界和相界面滑动、位错振荡以及各相的热膨胀系数和弹性模量间差造成的微塑性变形共同造成的.认为ZA27-4%Si合金具有良好耐磨性能和减振性能和强度,适合作为滑动轴承合金材料.

搅拌铸造法制备短碳纤维/AZ91复合材料的组织与性能

采用搅拌铸造法制备了不同体积分数（10vol%、15vol%、20vol%）的短碳纤维增强镁基（CF_s/AZ91）复合材料,并选取了三个挤压比和两个挤压温度对其进行热挤压变形,采用光学显微镜（OM）、SEM和TEM对CF_s/AZ91复合材料的显微组织进行了观察,并测试其室温力学性能及阻尼性能。研究结果表明,热挤压能够有效降低CF_s/AZ91复合材料气孔率;在热挤压过程中,纤维沿挤压方向定向排列,同时基体发生动态再结晶。随着挤压温度及挤压比的增大,晶粒呈现等轴状,组织更加均匀。CF_s/AZ91复合材料经过挤压后,其力学性能得到提高,屈服强度和抗拉强度随挤压比和CF_s体积分数的增大而增大,然而CF_s纤维在热挤压后发生明显断裂,限制了挤压态复合材料强度的进一步提升。低温低挤压比条件下,CF_s/AZ91复合材料具有较好的阻尼性能,随着挤压比及挤压温度的升高,CF_s/AZ91复合材料室温及高温阻尼性能均有所降低。

Insertion of triangulated surfaces into a meccano tetrahedral discretization by means of mesh refinement and optimization procedures

In this paper, we present a new method for inserting several triangulated surfaces into an existing tetrahedral mesh generated by the meccano method. The result is a conformal mesh where each inserted surface is approximated by a set of faces of the final tetrahedral mesh. First, the tetrahedral mesh is refined around the inserted surfaces to capture their geometric features. Second, each immersed surface is approximated by a set of faces from the tetrahedral mesh. Third, following a novel approach, the nodes of the approximated surfaces are mapped to the corresponding immersed surface. Fourth, we untangle and smooth the mesh by optimizing a regularized shape distortion measure for tetrahedral elements in which we move all the nodes of the mesh, restricting the movement of the edge and surface nodes along the corresponding entity they belong to. The refining process allows approximating the immersed surface for any initial meccano tetrahedral mesh. Moreover, the proposed projection method avoids computational expensive geometric projections. Finally, the applied simultaneous untangling and smoothing process delivers a high‐quality mesh and ensures that the immersed surfaces are interpolated. Several examples are presented to assess the properties of the proposed method.

Flow calorimeter for enthalpy increment measurements on condensed gases

A flow calorimeter for enthalpy increment measurements on condensed gases is presented. A better knowledge of the properties of the liquefied natural gas is needed, and therefore a liquid loop has been designed for our flow calorimeter. The fluid loop in the calorimeter is designed in order to avoid the two-phase region, since two phases would give compositional disturbances in the measurements. The avoidance of the two-phase region is made possible by increasing the pressure of the test fluid after the measurement section, then heating the fluid at super-critical pressure past the critical point. Finally, the fluid is throttled to the low-pressure gas state at the inlet condition of the compressor that circulates the fluid. To perform the pressure increase, a new cryogenic pump has been designed. To evaluate the new equipment, measurements were taken on liquid ethane over the temperature range 146–256 K at pressure between 0.9 and 5.1 MPa.

Roman iron and steel: A review

ABSTRACT

The production of ferrous metal increased during the Roman Late Republican period, Principate and Empire. The direct bloomery process was used to extract the metal from its ores using slag-tapping and slag-pit furnaces. The fuel was charcoal and an air blast was introduced by bellows-operated tuyères. Iron formed as a bloom, often as a spongy mass of metal, which contained impurities from the smelting process, including unreacted ore, fuel, slag and fragments from the furnace walls, while the metal was often inhomogeneous with varied carbon contents. Blooms were either smithed directly into bars or ingots or they were broken up, which also allowed the removal of gross impurities and a selection of pieces with similar properties to be made. These could then be forge-welded together and formed into characteristically shaped ingots. Making steel in the furnace seems to have been achieved: it depended on the ore and the furnace and conditions within it. Surface carburization was also carried out. Iron and steel were used extensively in construction and for tools and weapons. Fire welding was often used to add pieces of steel to make the edges of tools and weapons, which could be heat-treated by quenching to harden them.     

A study of centrifugal cast high boron high speed steel

In the present study a high‐boron high speed steel (HSS) roll material was designed. Many expensive alloy elements have been substituted by cheap boron alloy, and high‐boron high speed steel roll has been manufactured by centrifugal casting method. The microstructures, mechanical properties and wear resistance of centrifugal casting high‐boron high speed steel roll have been investigated by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, hardness test, impact test and wear test. The results indicated that the solidification microstructures of high‐boron high speed steel roll consisted of M₂(B,C), (W,Mo)₂(B,C), M₃(B,C), M₂₃(B,C)₆ type borocarbides and martensite, a small amount of retained austenite. Borocarbides were continuously distributed over the grain boundary. After quenching from 1050 °C, local broken network appeared in partial borocarbides, and fine secondary borocarbide precipitated from the matrix. After tempering from 525 °C, the amount of precipitated borocarbide increased significantly. After heat treatment, the hardness of high‐boron high speed steel roll excelled 60 HRC, and its impact toughness excelled 8.0 J/cm². The single groove steel rolling amount of high‐boron high speed steel rolls increases by 500% than that of bainite cast iron roll, when the rolls are used in K₁ mill housing of bar mill.
