The model is built by combining the computational thermodynamics and effective medium theory. The volume fractions and concentrations of precipitated phases in as-cast structure are estimated in consideration of partial and para-equilibrium. The conductivity of alloyed ferrite is calculated, taking into account the electronic and vibrational contributions of alloying elements. The model provides a good agreement with microstructure analysis and measured thermal conductivity. The influence of common alloying elements was discussed from the viewpoint of precipitation of phases and scattering of alloying atoms. This model can also be used as a numerical tool for designing the pearlitic gray cast irons with high thermal conductivity and high tensile strength.展开更多

This paper proposes a gray matter-element evaluation model based on the information entropy. The model is developed by combining both quantitative and qualitative methods, using probability theory to convert quantitative index to qualitative index, and the weight of those indexes were determined through synthesised integral weighting method, integrating matter-element theory, grey theory, and information theory. The model is then applied to evaluate the impact of the social environmental impact of highway construction project which will provide support for decision makers. Cheng-Yu highway and Shen-Da highway were selected for model application, and good results were achieved similar to the real situation.展开更多
