The technique of hydrogen embrittlement was first used to obtain the information of the brittleness cleavage plane. The effects of SMAT and the following annealing process on the corrosion behavior of 316SS were investiga- ted by potentiodynamic polarization curves and potentiostatic critical pitting temperature measurements. The results demonstrated that the nanoerystalline layer with an average grain size of 19 nm was produced. However, there were lots of cracks on the surface, which led to the degradation in the corrosion resistance of 316SS after SMAT. Never- theless, after annealing treatment, the corrosion resistance of the nanocrystalline surface had been improved greatly. The higher the annealing temperature, the better was the corrosion resistance.展开更多

A much thicker iron aluminide compound layer with a much enhanced growth kinetics of η-Fe2Al5 in the SMAT sample has been observed relative to the coarse-grained steel sample. Compared to the coarse-grained sample, a weakened texture is formed in the aluminide layer in the SMAT sample. The aluminizing kinetics is analyzed in terms of promoted difusivity and nucleation frequency in the nanostructured surface layer.展开更多

For instance the maximum strain rate reached 10^3-10^4s^-1 on the top surface. The relationship between the microsturcture and the corrosion property was studied in 0.05M H2SO4+ 0.25M Na2SO4 aqueous solution, and the results show an extreme improvement of corrosion resistance owing to the appearance of twin boundaries and the obvious reduction in corrosion resistance attributed to the presence of nanocrystaline boundaries.展开更多

The SMAT action was applied in the process of Ni and Cu electroplating coatings on NdFeB substrates in this paper. The role of mechanical attrition during barrel plating on the microstructure, mechanical and corrosion resistant properties of the coatings was exam- ined. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation showed that the mechanical attrition could refine grain size, markedly smooth the coating surface and obviously decrease the number of pore in the coatings. The continuous collisions of glass balls onto the NdFeB samples could induce more beneficial nucleation defects on the coating, which was helpful for increasing nucleation sites and the nucleation rate. The mechanical attrition could also restrain the heterogeneous growth of the coating grain tips due to the abra- sive action of stainless steel balls. The Tafel polarization curve experimental results indicated that SMAT process could enhance the corrosion resistance of coatings on NdFeB. The scratching test revealed that the binding force between coating and NdFeB substrate could be improved dramatically with SMAT process.展开更多

The current paper addresses the warfare command decision-making problem for winning when the total combats capability of the attacking side is not superior to that of the defending side. For this problem, the corresponding warfare command stratagems, which can transform the battlefield situation, are proposed and analyzed quantitatively by considering the influence of the warfare information factor. The application examples in military conflicts show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed model and the warfare command stratagems for winning. The research results may provide a theoretical reference for warfare command decision making.展开更多
