Abstract: During the analysis on the seepage field of fractured rock mass by using the equivalent continuum model, the coefficients of permeability obtained from the pump-in test and the field survey of rock mass structural faces are compared synthetically. Then the modified permeability tensor that can reflect the intrinsic geological environment elements is proposed. Finally, the method is applied to the seepage analysis of open-pit slope fractured rock mass successfully.

Abstract: Based on the measured activities, the phase diagrams and the annexation principle, the calculating models of mass action concentrations for Ag-Bi and Ag-Bi-In melts have been formulated. The calculated results agree with practice and obey the mass action law, showing that the models formulated can reflect the structural characteristics of both melts. Meanwhile, it confirms that annexation principle is applicable to the Ag-Bi-In metallic melts. The melts involving eutectic which give rise to phase separation, and in which activities exhibit positive deviation from Raoult's law is the basic cause of melts transforming from homogeneous to heterogeneous ones.

The curves of displacement on the vertical direction and stress versus dynamic time as well as the relationship between eigenvalues and dynamics frequency about the railway and highway were obtained.

Combined with a in-situ engineering case of a soil-masses slope, located in Shandong province on No.205 national highway, a numerical model under the two dynamic loading was built by using FLAG. Four different loading conditions worked on the unstable mechanism of soil slope were discussed respectively.

Abstract: The micro-process of cube texture formation in high purity electronic aluminum foils was investigated by EBSD (Electron Back Scattering Diffraction) technique in StM and the related analysis of crystal orientation. The nucleation and growth behavior of cube orientation grains in the early stage of recrystallization were discussed and analyzed during the annealing of cold rolled aluminum foils. The results show that the nuclei of cube orientation {001}<100> are not frequently observed in the rolled matrix, however, high purity aluminum foils hold strong cube texture after recrystallization. Cube texture formation abides by the mechanism of preferred growth, and the nuclei of cube orientation frequently form in the deformed matrix with S orientation grains {123}<634>.

Abstract: The principle of rapid measurement texture based on an X-ray two-dimensional detector was described. The advantages of the two-dimensional detector were the ability to collect several incomplete pole figures simultaneously and to calculate the orientation distribution function rapidly. It was found that a complete texture in one sample can be measured in a few minutes and the accuracy of the orientation distribution function was not basically affected when the two-dimensional detector was fixed at an appropriate diffraction angle and the sample rotation was reduced reasonably. This is illustrated by an example of interstitial free steel sheets texture measurement. It is believed that the method can be used to develop a technology for online texture measurement of interstitial free steel sheets as well as other metal sheets in industry.
Abstract: Anisotropic NdFeB magnet powders were prepared by crushing a sintered magnet at elevated temperatures. The experimental results show that the coercivity of the magnet powders prepared at higher crush temperatures near or above the ternary eutectic temperature of the NdFeB magnetic alloy, can reach a much higher value than that obtained by room-temperature crush. The influence of crush temperature on coercivity is closely related to the transition of the fracture way from transgranlar to intergranular manner with increasing crush temperature. In a crush process at an elevated temperature, the reduction of cracks in the surface layer and of sharp edges and corners of the magnet powders, and the formation of an Nd-rich phase thin layer more homogeneously distributed on the powder surface should be the reason for the increase in coercivity. The experiments also show that a following annealing treatment of the obtained powders can further improve the coercivity.
Abstract: Polarization curves and electrochemical parameters of four kinds of titanium alloys (TC4,TC11,TA7 and TA12) were measured in six alcohol solutions with the potentiodynamic method. The effects of H2O and Cl- were mainly investigated. It was found that the pitting corrosion resistance of the alloys was somehow improved when the certain amount of H2O was added in the alcohol solutions and greatly decreased by Cl- in the solutions. Cl- would obviously change titanium alloys from a self-passivation state into an active one.
Abstract: The conductivity performance of lithium ferrite oxide for molten carbonate fuel cells was investigated. The results showed that the conductivity of lithium ferrite oxide can be improved by making Li2CO3 excessive slightly in the process of preparing lithium ferrite oxide. At the same temperature, the conductivity of lithium ferrite oxide increases with the increasing of Li:Fe values. However, at the same Li:Fe value, the conductivity of lithium ferrite oxide increases exponentially with the increasing of temperature. It was shown from the SEM analysis that the electrode surface micrographics of lithium ferrite oxide with various Li:Fe values are different.
Abstract: The hot rolling of a steel billet in oval pass and the variations of rolling force and torque are simulated by three-dimensional thermo-mechanical coupled elastoplastic finite element simulation. It is shown that the difference between the velocities of the metal flow along the rolling direction on the surface and in the inner part of the billet results in the concave section at the rolled steel ends. The rolling force, the axial force, rolling torque and radial torque have a similar variation, which is large during the period of the steel billet being engaged with or leaving from the oval-pass and small during the period of the stable rolling.

Abstract: A statistical wear model of backup roll was built up based on a large number of measured data. The model is a multiple extremes and high non-linearity semi-theoretic formula whose pattern and magnitude are hardly defined with classical optimization methods because the computation is large and complex. By using the simulated annealing algorithm with memory, the coefficients in the roll wear model are optimized. The calculation results indicate a higher precision for prediction. After the model was applied in a 2800 4-roll mill of Wuhan Iron and Steel (Group) Co, the plate shape had been notably improved.

Abstract: Vehicle's steady state cornering performance (oversteer/understeer) has substantial influence on its handling and stability. Main factors affecting this performance are analyzed based on modeling of coach HFF6850 for simulation of the handling dynamics by ADAM. The steady state cornering performance is appraised by scoring of three indicatives, i.e. lateral acceleration at neutral steering point, understeer rate, and roll rate of the vehicle body, and then comprehensive scores are calculated. Suspension and tire parameters are adjusted according to the comprehensive scores to improve the coach's handling performance.
