Diffusion bonds have been produced between sheets of an Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Zr alloy using aluminium-4% copper vapour deposited metallic interlayers. Microstructural changes occurred both in the parent alloy and in the bond interface after diffusion bonding cycles and post-bonding heat treatments were analysed. Different metallographic techniques (light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy) have been used. Diffusion bonding trials were carried out using the same alloy (AA8090), both in non-superplastic (T6) and superplastic conditions. Differences in their behaviours in relation to diffusion bonding were observed. 相似文献
Light and transmission electron microscopy techniques have been applied in observations of hypervelocity impact craters in two different copper targets: a 38 m grain size mill-processed target, and a 763 m grain size annealed target, the smaller grained target being impacted with a 1100 aluminium sphere and the larger grained target being impacted with a soda-lime glass sphere, at velocities near 6 km s–1. Both target craters exhibited dynamic recrystallization near the crater wall. The jetting associated with these two craters was very different. Considerably more plastic flow and a larger rim characterized the larger grained target. No significant melt-related phenomena were observed either near the crater wall or in the jetted rim for either crater. Consequently, the principal features of crater formation involve extreme plastic flow in the solid state. Microbands were observed to occur profusely in a zone below the smaller grained mill-processed target crater while more profuse and extremely long, unidirectional bundles of microbands (which were coincident with traces of {1 1 1} planes) occurred below the annealed larger grained target crater. These observations attest to the dominant and unique role played by deformation microbands in cratering in copper, because essentially no deformation twins were observed in either target. 相似文献
The particle distribution in semi-solid slurry under centrifugal field was simulated and the main factors such as fraction of solid, rotation speed, and holding time effecting the particle distributions are discussed. The simulation results showed that primary particles rich zone is produced in radially outer area and these results are in good agreement with the experiment. The centrifugal effect produces the primary particles distribution along the radial direction. Denser particles are concentrated in outside than inner side. For high fraction of solid samples, ‘wall’ appear in the middle of samples because of high viscosity region making particle difficult to move. Longer holding time gives denser primary particles concentrated more in outside than inner side. Higher rotation speed gives increased gradient of hardness in the radial direction. It is due to that number of primary austenite at inner side at higher rotation speed is less than that at lower rotation one. At higher rotation speed, ledeburite forms more at inner side of specimen than at the other one. It is also shown that semi-solid processing at lower fraction of solid gives higher hardness because smaller number of primary austenite, namely more ledeburite forms in microstructure. The present study gives useful information on producing material with locally changing property by semi-solid processing. 相似文献
Influence of the Trommsdorff–Norrish (T–N) effect on the phase separation of methyl methacrylate (MMA)/poly(ethyl acrylate) (PEA) mixtures undergoing photo-polymerization was examined by a combination of several experimental techniques. By FT-IR spectroscopy, it was found that the polymerization conversion explosively increases at the onset of this T–N effect. The characteristic irradiation time τ at which this effect occurs, strongly depends on the light intensity and gradually shifts to early time as the irradiation intensity increases. The shrinkage of the mixture observed in situ by laser-scanning confocal microscopy exhibits a transition at a particular irradiation time which is slightly longer than the characteristic time τ. By gel permeation chromatography (GPC), it was found that the molecular weight of the resulting PMMA was almost unchanged before τ and suddenly increases about an order of magnitude after the onset of the auto-acceleration effect. Finally, the characteristic length scales of the morphology also quickly increase with irradiation time and are eventually frozen by this T–N effect. These experimental results indicate that the Trommsdorff–Norrish effect plays an important role in the kinetic processes of polymerization-induced phase separation, suggesting an efficient tool to control the morphology of the polymerizing mixture. 相似文献
Chatter causes machining instability and reduces productivity in the metal cutting process. It has negative effects on the surface finish, dimensional accuracy, tool life and machine life. Chatter identification is therefore necessary to control, prevent, or eliminate chatter and to determine the stable machining condition. Previous studies of chatter detection used either model-based or signal-based methods, and each of them has its drawback. Model-based methods use cutting dynamics to develop stability lobe diagram to predict the occurrence of chatter, but the off-line stability estimation couldn’t detect chatter in real time. Signal-based methods apply mostly Fourier analysis to the cutting or vibration signals to identify chatter, but they are heuristic methods and do not consider the cutting dynamics. In this study, the model-based and signal-based chatter detection methods were thoroughly investigated. As a result, a hybrid model- and signal-based chatter detection method was proposed. By analyzing the residual between the force measurement and the output of the cutting force model, milling chatter could be detected and identified efficiently during the milling process.
