The activation energy(Q) for the tested steel is calculated to be around 682.99 k J/mol at a deformation strain of 0.6. Microstructural analysis by SEM shows that the dynamic recrystallization(DRX) behavior is dependent sensitively on the deformation strain, temperature and strain rate, while an exponential relationship between DRX grain size and Z parameter is obtained from the computational formula. Moreover, the M6C-type carbides(〈1 μm) act as the main prohibitor of grain coarsening, and the polynomial regression relationship between them is worked out. With electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD) observation, DRX is the main nucleation mechanism responsible for the formation of new grains during hot compression. In conclusion, the interaction between DRX affected by hot deformation parameters and carbides precipitation determines the ultimate grain size refinement.展开更多
In the present work, scandium elements with a series of contents(0.06 wt.%, 0.10 wt.%, 0.14 wt.%,0.17 wt.%, 0.20 wt.% and 0.25 wt.%) were added in a high Zn-containing Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy and the corresponding as-cas...In the present work, scandium elements with a series of contents(0.06 wt.%, 0.10 wt.%, 0.14 wt.%,0.17 wt.%, 0.20 wt.% and 0.25 wt.%) were added in a high Zn-containing Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy and the corresponding as-cast microstructure characteristics including grains and phases were thoroughly investigated. The results indicated that fine grain boundaries existed in these alloys and fine MgZn2phases discontinuously distributed on them. Besides,AlZnMgCu eutectic phases and Sc, Zr-containing phases with flocculent morphology were observed. As scandium contents vary from 0.06 wt.% to 0.17 wt.%, the average grain size continuously decreased and its equiaxial characteristics were strengthened. Meanwhile, the content of AlZnMgCu eutectic phase showed a decrease trend. When scandium contents were 0.20 wt.% and 0.25 wt.%, no further enhancement on grain refinement was observed, so as to the reduction of AlZnMgCu eutectic phase content. Besides, Sc, Zr-containing phases with blocky morphology were observed and the alloy with a scandium content of 0.25 wt.% possessed a larger amount of blocky Sc, Zr-containing phase than the alloy with a scandium content of 0.20 wt.%. Grain refinement and reduction of AlZnMgCu eutectic phase content associated with scandium addition were discussed.展开更多

In this paper, it is adopted to evaluate the effect of each technology parameter on final grain size of AISI H13 hot work tool steel during multistage deformation. It has been verified that the technology scheme for refining the final grain size can be determined rapidly and efficiently with the aid of the uniform design. The results show that the deformation parameters and the intermission time after deformation of the first stage affect the final grain size remarkably. For AISI H13 hot work tool steel, the final grain size can be refined notably when deformation parameters for the first stage are set as follows: a deformation temperature range of 1?025 1?085 ℃; a true strain of above 0.26 and the interpass time between the first and the second stage of deformation less than 10 s.展开更多

The study was carried out with chloride melts at 400 ℃ in a crucible-in-crucible type pyrex glass electrolyzer. The kinetic regularity of the removal of lead and silver was found to be in accordance with the equation:Inc=b-kt. Values of constant k were determined for different current density.The relationship between the purity of refined bismuth and its direct yield wasalso determined. A two-stage anode refining method was established. The firststage. was to remove most part of lead (about 90%) at higher current density ;the second stage was used for removing silver and the remains of lead at lowercurrent density. Under appropriate conditions high purity (WPb < 0.001%,WAd<0.004%) of bismuth could be obtained from crude bismuth with the direct yield of bismuth up to 98%.展开更多

Unlike the full optimization of LR problems in traditional LR approaches, the machine capacity relaxation is optimized asymptotically, while the precedence relaxation is optimized approximately due to the NP-hard nature of its LR problem. Because the standard subgradient algorithm(SSA) cannot solve the Lagrangian dual(LD) problem within the partial optimization of LR problem, an effective deflected-conditional approximate subgradient level algorithm(DCASLA) was developed, named as Lagrangian relaxation level approach. The efficiency of the DCASLA is enhanced by a deflected-conditional epsilon-subgradient to weaken the possible zigzagging phenomena. Computational results and comparisons show that the proposed methods improve significantly the efficiency of the LR approach and the DCASLA adopting capacity relaxation strategy performs best among eight methods in terms of solution quality and running time.展开更多

Unlike the full optimization of LR problems in traditional LR approaches, the machine capacity relaxation is optimized asymptotically, while the precedence relaxation is optimized approximately due to the NP-hard nature of its LR problem. Because the standard subgradient algorithm(SSA) cannot solve the Lagrangian dual(LD) problem within the partial optimization of LR problem, an effective deflected-conditional approximate subgradient level algorithm(DCASLA) was developed, named as Lagrangian relaxation level approach. The efficiency of the DCASLA is enhanced by a deflected-conditional epsilon-subgradient to weaken the possible zigzagging phenomena. Computational results and comparisons show that the proposed methods improve significantly the efficiency of the LR approach and the DCASLA adopting capacity relaxation strategy performs best among eight methods in terms of solution quality and running time.
