Dendritic α phase emerged on the surfaces of primary α phase when the alloy was air-cooled in α ＋β phase field after deformation. The dendritic α grain has the same orientation with its original primary α grain. The formation of the dendritic α phase could be explained by interface instability in epi- taxial growth process of the primary α phase. The dislocations induced by deformation could facilitate the formation of dendritic α phase leading to the dendritic α phase and more obvious with the increase of strain. The growth of dendritic α phase was finally limited by the nucleation of second α phase with cooling.展开更多

The presence of large regions with similar crystallographic orientation, called ‘macrozones',could drastically decrease the fatigue performance of titanium alloys. The present work reports on the crystallographic orientation of a near-α titanium alloy, Ti60, billet after annealing in an α+β phase field.The texture was found to be weak, and no obvious macrozone was found in our measured zone where the variant selection is suppressed. Meanwhile, in-depth electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD) analysis was applied to evaluate the final microstructure, and the mechanisms by which they formed were analyzed.展开更多

On ike constant applied indentation creep stress, there is a steady creep rate for each case studied for different creep properties of the TBC system. The steady creep depth rate depends on the applied indentation creep stress and size of the indenters as well as the creep properties of the bond coat of the TBC and the substrate. The possibilities to determine the creep properties of a thermal barrier system from indention creep testing were discussed. As an example, with two different size indenters, the creep properties of bond coat of the TBC system can be derived by an inverse FEM method. This study not only provides a numerical method to obtain the creep properties of the TBC system, but also extends the application of indentation creep method with cylindrical flat indenters.展开更多

The experimental results revealed that the Fe/Mo multilayers in our experimental conditions behaved magnetoresistance effect with a sharp peak on magnetoresistance (MR) ratio curve, and magnetoresistance is easily saturated at low applied magnetic fields. For [Fe(1.5nm)/Mo(1.0nm)]4,2 multilayers, MR ratio could arrive to 0.1%. The antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling could be observed in some films at room temperature. The strength of the antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling J in the films is low because of the low saturation field Hs. The relationship between magnetic properties and micro structure was also discussed in this paper.展开更多

This renaissance has been driven in part by the discovery of a plethora of charmonium-like XYZ states at BESⅢ and B factories, and the observation of an intriguing proton-antiproton threshold enhancement and the possibly related X(1835) meson state at BESⅢ, as well as the threshold measurements of charm mesons and charm baryons. We present a detailed survey of the important topics in tau-charm physics and hadron physics that can be further explored at BESⅢ during the remaining operation period of BEPCⅡ. This survey will help in the optimization of the data-taking plan over the coming years, and provides physics motivation for the possible upgrade of BEPCⅡ to higher luminosity.展开更多

Dendritic α phase emerged on the surfaces of primary α phase when the alloy was air-cooled in α ＋β phase field after deformation. The dendritic α grain has the same orientation with its original primary α grain. The formation of the dendritic α phase could be explained by interface instability in epi- taxial growth process of the primary α phase. The dislocations induced by deformation could facilitate the formation of dendritic α phase leading to the dendritic α phase and more obvious with the increase of strain.

文摘A heterogeneous microstructure in terms of local orientation distribution is often found in near-α titanium alloys. The presence of large regions with similar crystallographic orientation, called ‘macrozones',could drastically decrease the fatigue performance of titanium alloys. The present work reports on the crystallographic orientation of a near-α titanium alloy, Ti60, billet after annealing in an α+β phase field.The texture was found to be weak, and no obvious macrozone was found in our measured zone where the variant selection is suppressed. Meanwhile, in-depth electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD) analysis was applied to evaluate the final microstructure, and the mechanisms by which they formed were analyzed.

文摘Indentation creep behavior with cylindrical flat indenters on the thermal barrier coating (TBC) was studied by finite element method (FEM). On ike constant applied indentation creep stress, there is a steady creep rate for each case studied for different creep properties of the TBC system. The steady creep depth rate depends on the applied indentation creep stress and size of the indenters as well as the creep properties of the bond coat of the TBC and the substrate. The possibilities to determine the creep properties of a thermal barrier system from indention creep testing were discussed. As an example, with two different size indenters, the creep properties of bond coat of the TBC system can be derived by an inverse FEM method. This study not only provides a numerical method to obtain the creep properties of the TBC system, but also extends the application of indentation creep method with cylindrical flat indenters.
文摘Aconduction-cooled superconducting magnet with central field of 10Tand warmbore of 100 mmwas designed based on a Nb3Sn and two NbTi superconducting coils.At the first stage,the NbTi coils havebeen fabricated andtested.Atwo-stage 4 KGifford-McMahon(GM) cryocooler withthe second-stage powerin1W,4.2Kis used to cool the magnet fromroomtemperature to 4 K.The superconducting magnet with thesame power supply has the operating current of 116A.The magnet can be rotated with a support frame to beoperated with either horizontal or vertical position.Apair of Bi-2223 hightemperature superconductingcurrentleads was employedto reduce heat leakage into 4.2Klevel.The NbTi coils reachto the operating current of120Awithout training effect to be observed duringchargingof the magnet during40 minutes chargingtime andgenerate the center field of 6.5T.The training effect inthe NbTi magnet directly cool-down by cryocooler andinter-winding support structure in magnet can be remarkablyimproved.The superconducting magnet has beenstably operatedfor more than 275 hours with 6.5T.In this paper,the detailed design,fabrication,stressanalysis and quench protection characteristics are presented.
文摘The Fe/Mo multilayers were prepared by electron beam evaporation, the micro structure and magnetic properties of the multilayers were studied by X-ray diffraction, vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) et al. The experimental results revealed that the Fe/Mo multilayers in our experimental conditions behaved magnetoresistance effect with a sharp peak on magnetoresistance (MR) ratio curve, and magnetoresistance is easily saturated at low applied magnetic fields. For [Fe(1.5nm)/Mo(1.0nm)]4,2 multilayers, MR ratio could arrive to 0.1%. The antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling could be observed in some films at room temperature. The strength of the antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling J in the films is low because of the low saturation field Hs. The relationship between magnetic properties and micro structure was also discussed in this paper.

文摘There has recently been a dramatic renewal of interest in hadron spectroscopy and charm physics. This renaissance has been driven in part by the discovery of a plethora of charmonium-like XYZ states at BESⅢ and B factories, and the observation of an intriguing proton-antiproton threshold enhancement and the possibly related X(1835) meson state at BESⅢ, as well as the threshold measurements of charm mesons and charm baryons. We present a detailed survey of the important topics in tau-charm physics and hadron physics that can be further explored at BESⅢ during the remaining operation period of BEPCⅡ. This survey will help in the optimization of the data-taking plan over the coming years, and provides physics motivation for the possible upgrade of BEPCⅡ to higher luminosity.

文摘Using a dedicated data sample taken in 2018 on the J/ψpeak,we perform a detailed study of the trigger efficiencies of the BESIII detector.The efficiencies are determined from three representative physics processes,namely Bhabha scattering,dimuon production and generic hadronic events with charged particles.The combined efficiency of all active triggers approaches 100%in most cases,with uncertainties small enough not to affect most physics analyses.
