A novel unified model predicting flow stress and grain size evolutions during hot working of non-uniform as-cast 42CrMo billets

The cast preformed forming process(CPFP) is increasingly considered and applied in the metal forming industries due to its short process, low cost, and environmental friendliness, especially in the aerospace field. However, how to establish a unified model of a non-uniform as-cast billet depicting the flow stress and microstructure evolution behaviors during hot working is the key to microstructure prediction and parameter optimization of the CPFP. In this work, hot compression tests are performed using a non-uniform as-cast 42 CrMo billet at 1123–1423 K and 0.01–1sà1. The effect laws of the non-uniform state of the as-cast billet with different initial grain sizes on the flow stress and microstructure are revealed deeply. Based on experimental results, a unified model of flow stress and grain size evolutions is developed by the internal variable modeling method. Verified results show that the model can well describe the responses of the flow stress and microstructure to deformation conditions and initial grain sizes. To further evaluate its reliability, the unified model is applied to FE simulation of the cast preformed ring rolling process.The predictions of the rolling force and grain size indicate that it could well describe the flow stress and microstructure evolutions during the process.     

Collision free 4D path planning for multiple UAVs based on spatial refined voting mechanism and PSO approach

In this paper, a four-dimensional coordinated path planning algorithm for multiple UAVs is proposed, in which time variable is taken into account for each UAV as well as collision free and obstacle avoidance. A Spatial Refined Voting Mechanism(SRVM) is designed for standard Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) to overcome the defects of local optimal and slow convergence.For each generation candidate particle positions are recorded and an adaptive cube is formed with own adaptive side length to indicate occupied regions. Then space voting begins and is sorted based on voting results, whose centers with bigger voting counts are seen as sub-optimal positions. The average of all particles of corresponding dimensions are calculated as the refined solutions. A time coordination method is developed by generating specified candidate paths for every UAV, making them arrive the same destination with the same time consumption. A spatial-temporal collision avoidance technique is introduced to make collision free. Distance to destination is constructed to improve the searching accuracy and velocity of particles. In addition, the objective function is redesigned by considering the obstacle and threat avoidance, Estimated Time of Arrival(ETA), separation maintenance and UAV self-constraints. Experimental results prove the effectiveness and efficiency of the algorithm.

铝合金的电弧增材制造过程中因持续热积累而引起组织分布不均匀和溶质偏析,导致其性能各向异性。针对这一问题,设计了TiB₂纳米颗粒添加铝合金的钨极氩弧(Tungsten inert gas,TIG)增材制造工艺。在电弧增材制造过程中,通过表面预涂层的方式将纳米TiB₂颗粒添加到试样中,对比研究了纳米TiB₂颗粒不同质量分数对AlSi5合金微观组织的影响。结果表明,随着TiB₂质量分数的增加,AlSi5合金的微观组织不均匀性得到明显改善,1.5%TiB₂的添加使AlSi5合金的晶粒尺寸从226μm减小到85.6μm,且引起(110)和(112)基面上的织构明显减弱,最大取向密度呈下降的趋势;与无颗粒添加的AlSi5增材试样相比,颗粒添加后的沉积层硬度与弹性模量均得到显著提高,硬度值从879MPa增加到1253MPa,弹性模量从81.9GPa增加到88.3GPa。

Flow field generated by a dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuator in quiescent air at initiation stage

A single Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) plasma actuator driven by Alternating Current (AC) power, capable of inducing a starting vortex and a wall jet in quiescent air, is suited for low-Reynolds-number flow control. However, the starting vortex and the wall jet are usually observed after the plasma actuator has been operated for dozens of and hundreds of cycles of the voltage, respectively. The detail of the induced flow field at the initiation stage of the plasma actuator has rarely been addressed. At the initiation stage, a thin jet that provides the impetus for the entrainment of the induced flow at the beginning of the plasma actuation is first observed by using a high-accuracy phase-lock Schlieren technique and a high-speed Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. This is the initial form of the momentum transfer from the plasma to the fluid. Then, an arched type jet is created by the plasma actuator. In addition, the whole development process of the induced flow field from the starting point of the thin jet to the quasi-steady stage of wall jet is presented for providing a comprehensive understanding of the plasma actuator and proposing a relevant enhancement of the numerical simulation model.     

纳米压痕试验中圆柱形压头尺寸效应

针对薄膜材料在纳米压痕试验时出现的压痕尺寸效应,运用准连续介质法模拟单晶铝膜纳米压痕试验初始塑性变形过程。分析了不同直径的刚性圆柱形压头分别压入同一深度时弹性和塑性变形特点,并获得了相应的载荷—压深曲线。基于Oliver-Pharr法,预测了纳米硬度值和弹性模量。研究数据表明:纳米硬度值随着压头直径的增加而减小,呈现出明显的压头尺寸效应;当压头直径达到或超过80时纳米硬度值趋于稳定值,即压头尺寸效应消失。同时表明弹性模量不存在尺寸效应。表明材料的弹性模量本质上仅依赖原子间的结合能,而和压头尺寸基本无关。
