Electrically-assisted micro-rolling (EAμR) takes advantage of localized heating by loading current through the deformation zone to enhance the texturing capability of Ti-6Al-4V and AA3003-H14. The challenge to achieve a desired deformation pattern is the lack of reliable models to capture the often non-uniform mechanical and thermal behaviors. In this paper, pressure distributions are measured by a custom-designed, tool-embedded sensor. Furthermore, the effects of current on texturing are first characterized using a coupled mechanical and thermal model. Comparison between modeling and experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of EAμR on texturing and the importance of multi-physics modeling. 相似文献
An anomalous enhancement of fluorescence of carbon dots (CDs) was observed via lanthanum (La) doping. La-doped CDs (La-CDs) were prepared through microwave pyrolysis within 4 min. With La3+ doping, the emission band shifted from blue to green although La3+ is non-fluorescent. The quantum yield and fluorescence lifetime improved by about 20% and 35%, respectively. All experiment results indicate that La3+ doping is an effective way to tune fluorescence and improve the performance of CDs. Another unique attribute of La-CDs is high sensitivity to Fe3+. The La-CD-based fluorescence probe was established and used for sensitive and selective detection of Fe3+ with a limit of detection of 91 nmol/L. The proposed fluorescence probe also was successfully employed to visualize intracellular Fe3+ in live HeLa cells through cell imaging. It was also shown that yttrium exhibited the same fluorescence enhancement effect as La. The results may provide a new route for preparing CDs with special properties.
In the framework of lattice fluid model, the Gibbs energy and equation of state are derived by introducing the energy (Es) stored during flow for polymer blends under shear. From the calculation of the spinodal of poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) and polystyrene (PS) mixtures, we have found the influence of Es on equation of state in pure component is inappreciable, but it is appreciable in the mixture. However, the effect of Es on phase separation behavior is extremely striking. In the calculation of spinodal for the PVME/PS system, a thin, long and banana miscibility gap generated by shear is seen beside the miscibility gap with lower critical solution temperature. Meanwhile, a binodal coalescence of upper and lower miscibility gaps is occurred. The three points of the three-phase equilibrium are forecasted. The shear rate dependence of cloud point temperature at a certain composition is discussed. The calculated results are acceptable compared with the experiment values obtained by Higgins et al. However, the maximum positive shift and the minimum negative shift of cloud point temperature guessed by Higgins are not obtained. Furthermore, the combining effects of pressure and shear on spinodal shift are predicted. 相似文献
Spaceborne lidar observations have a great potential to improve our knowledge of the atmosphere. However, contrary to ground-based or airborne lidar measurements in observations from space multiple scattering (MS) has to be accounted for under all atmospheric conditions. A simple way to achieve this is to introduce the approximative MS factor F in the single scattering lidar equation. We determined F for measurements of aerosols, ice and water clouds as they were planned with the Japanese space lidar ELISE. We found that F is almost constant in cirrus clouds and in water clouds which are penetrable by lidar. In aerosol layers F depends on penetration depth, extinction coefficient and aerosol type. In comparison to LITE the MS factor is smaller (for aerosols and water clouds) or almost equal (cirrus) 相似文献
