Effects of solidification structure on fatigue crack initiation and fatigue strength in Al−Si−Mg cast alloys

Rotating-bending uniaxial fatigue tests and micro-fatigue crack initiation tests were carried out using a permanent mold cast (PMC) and semi-solid die cast (SDC) with Al−7%Si−0.35%Mg composition in order to examine the relationship between solidification structures and fatigue behaviors. The crack length was measured using a replication method. Fatigue strength was improved in SDC, which was almost consistent with the predicted fatigue strength using the size of Si particle cluster. Resistance to fatigue crack initiation and fatigue strength were improved in SDC owing to the finer Si cluster and to higher ultimate tensile strength. Fatigue crack in PMC was preferentially initiated at pores. For SDC, the fatigue crack was initiated at the Si particle/matrix interface, and then sucessively grew along eutectic cell boundaries.     

Failure analysis used for remanufacturing of steel rolling components

The guide-pieces, used in the process line of steel rolling, were the important components. The guidepieces, which were slide contacting with the rolled-piece, had a high temperature and high speed. The wear was very serious. The results from failure analysis showed that there were three failure forms in the guide-pieces: the first was the wear during heat friction, the second was the heat fatigue under the cycle of deep heating and deep cooling, and the third was the impact rupture. Among them, the wear was the main reason. To the wear of guidepieces, there were four mechanisms, namely abrasive wear, adhesive wear, fatigue wear and corrosion wear. The failure analysis to the guide-piece laid the foundation for its remanufacturing. Foundation item: Project(50235030) supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China     

Acoustic emission method for research and control of friction pairs

One of the new physical methods that provides much information about the processes going on in a friction contact zone in real time is acoustic emission (AE). Basic experimental results of AE in friction are presented and analysed. Using AE signals we can get an indication about the state of the friction processes, about the quality of solid and liquid layers on the contacting surfaces in real time, sometimes about intensity of wear, changing of wear and friction regimes and so on. The influence of sliding velocity, load, roughness and some physical and mechanical properties of the body on the parameters of AE are also given. Some attention to the practical implementation of these techniques for control of capability for work of friction pairs in real conditions are given. Modern methods and devices enable condition monitoring of sliding and rolling bearings.     

一种评价机器磨损和润滑油质量的新方法

提出用表征大型机械系统健康状态的相对劣化度作为监控机械磨损状态和油品质量变化的综合判断指标，以便结合反映机器工作状态的其它因素，共同评定机器的健康状态。以柴油机为例，对监测得到的柴油机润滑油的铁谱参数、磨损金属元素含量和油品理化性能等数据进行综合分析和处理，所得相对劣化度的变化趋势，较准确地反映了柴油机的工作状况。该方法不仅简单实用，而且便于将油液监测技术与其他监测技术（如振动诊断技术）结合起来，用一统一指标描述机器的健康状况，达到监测和预报的目的，为开发基于多种监测技术的智能诊断系统打下基础。     

磨损自补偿添加剂在成品油中的摩擦学效应

利用四球试验机考察了二聚酸－3－氯－2－羟基丙单酯（DAE）在4种成品油中的摩擦学性能。试验结果表明，DAE添加剂在L－HM68液压油和L－DAB100空压机油中具有良好的适应性，使其承载能力增强，摩擦系数降低及耐磨性增强；DAE在L－CKE涡轮蜗杆油中使耐磨性增强；DAE在L－CKC150齿轮油中虽使承载能力提高，减磨性增强，但有使耐磨性减小的趋势，说明DAE在不同的油中有不同的性能。     

金属清净剂的性能研究

Failure analysis of a hot extrusion die used for Al-Li alloy processing

Al-Li alloys being developed as lighter, substitutes for conventional high strength Al alloys are to be processed by routine methods. During extrusion of a 8090 Al-Li alloy, the extrusion die container failed causing some alarm. This failed die container was analysed to examine if the failure was caused by interaction of Li diffusing out of Al-Li alloy with the carbides of die steel. The evidence, although not conclusive, is sufficient to exercise caution during such processing.
