The hot compression and the hot tensile experiments were carried out on a Gleeble3800 thermal-mechanical simulator at different deformation conditions. The relationship between the flow stress and Zener-Hollomon parameter was established by the hyperbolic sine function. The hot deformation apparent activation energy is about 371 kJ/mol. There are two peak regions of m-value in the m maps with true strain of 0.2. One peak corresponds to the temperature of 1050 °C and the strain rate of 0.01 s−1, the other one corresponds to the temperature of 1200 °C and the strain rates within range of 0.1 s−1 ∼ 1 s−1. There is only one peak region (1150 °C ∼ 1200 °C, 0.1 s−1 ∼ 1 s−1) of m-value, when true strain is 0.4 or 0.9. The reduction of area increases from 65% to 98% with the temperature increases from 800 °C to 1200 °C. In temperature range of 1000 °C ∼ 1200 °C, the reduction of area is always over 90%, which means that the plasticity of the steel is fine. According to the results of the research, it can be proved that the optimal deformation conditions with different strain correspond to the peak regions of m-value. The optimum deformation conditions is the temperature of 1200 °C and the strain rates within range of 0.1 s−1 ∼ 1 s−1, which were suitable for the true strain with 0.2, 0.4 and 0.9 at the same time.

The hot deformation behavior of a new Al–Mn–Sc alloy was investigated by hot compression conducted at temperatures from 330 to 490 °C and strain rates from 0.01 to 10 s−1. The hot deformation behavior and microstructure of the alloy were significantly affected by the deformation temperatures and strain rates. The peak flow stress decreased with increasing deformation temperatures and decreasing strain rates. According to the hot deformation behavior, the constitutive equation was established to describe the steady flow stress, and a hot processing map at 0.4 strain was obtained based on the dynamic material model and the Prasad instability standard, which can be used to evaluate the hot workability of the alloy. The developed hot processing diagram showed that the instability was more likely to occur in the higher Zener–Hollomon parameter region, and the optimal processing range was determined as 420–475 °C and 0.01–0.022 s−1, in which a stable flow and a higher power dissipation were achieved.

In order to study the hot workability of TC21 titanium alloy, isothermal hot compression tests were conducted in the temperatures range of 1123~1203K and strain rates range of 0.01~10s-1. The influence of strain was incorporated in hyperbolic sine constitutive equation by considering the effect of strain on material constants. Correlation coefficient (R) and average absolute relative error (AARE) were introduced to verify the validity of the developed hyperbolic sine constitutive equation. The values of R and AARE were determined to be 0.9891 and 7.753% respectively, which indicated that the developed hyperbolic sine constitutive equation considering strain compensation could precisely predict the flow behavior of TC21 titanium alloy throughout the entire range of temperatures and strain rates.

In this work, plastic flow behavior of an as-cast manganese aluminum bronze was investigated under various compressive deformation conditions. The forming temperatures of 1023, 1073, 1123 and 1173 K and strain rates of 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10 s-1 were considered. It was found that all obtained stress-strain responses of manganese aluminum bronze showed a single peak stress that afterwards approached a steady flow stress. Additionally, constitutive equations based on the Arrhenius model were applied for describing the determined flow stresses, in which Zener-Hollomon parameter in a hyperbolic-sine function was taken into account. By the flow stress modeling, the activation energy of about 194 kJ/mol was calculated for the examined manganese aluminum bronze.

The flow behavior of an Al-Cu-Li-Mg-Ag alloy was studied by thermal simulation tests at deformation temperatures between 350 °C and 470 °C and strain rates between 0.01–10 s−1. The microstructures of the deformed materials were characterized by electron backscattered diffraction. Constitutive equations were developed after considering compensation for strains. The processing maps were established and the optimum processing window was identified. The experimental data and predicted values of flow stresses were in a good agreement with each other. The influence of deformation temperature and strain rates on the microstructure were discussed. The relationship between the recrystallization mechanism and the Zener–Hollomon parameter was investigated as well.

The paper presents the results of a complex study of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy, conducted with the application of the dynamic material modelling (DMM) method, in a wide range of temperatures, strain rates and strains. A compression test was carried out in a wide range of temperatures (800 – 1100°C) and strain rates (0.01 – 100 s-1), up to the constant final true strain value of 0.9. The obtained stress-strain curves were a basis for determining deformation activation energy with the use of an Arrhenius plot and a correlation between the Zener-Hollomon parameter and flow stress, for which the constitutive equation proposed by Sellars was used. The power dissipation efficiency parameter was calculated. The maps of power dissipation as the function of temperature and strain rate were plotted in the form of the isoclines of the power dissipation efficiency parameter expressed in %. The processing maps exhibited the range of occurrence and recrystallization of the primary α phase, the degree of the β phase recrystallization progress against the background of the process deformation windows and instability flow domain. An analysis of the influence of process parameters up on the microstructure and hardness changes was conducted.

Plastic deformation is a key variable producing accelerated intergranular (IG) carbide precipitation and chromium-depletion (sensitization) development in stainless steels. Deformation above 20% also produces transgranular (TG) carbides and depletion in the material. Research on TG carbides in SS is, however, limited and has indicated that the precipitation is site-specific preferring twin-fault intersections in 316 SS versus deformation-induced martensite and martensite lath-boundaries in 304 SS. Evidences indicating the relation between martensite and carbides were, however, sketchy.The objective of this work was to fundamentally understand the relationship between TG carbides and strain-induced martensite in 304 SS. Since strain-induced martensite forms at twin-fault intersections in 304 SS and the crystallography of the transformation is well understood, we believed that it could be key in understanding mechanisms of carbides and sensitization in SS. A 0.051% C, 304 SS deformed to ∽33% engineering strain (40% true strain) and heat treated at 670°C/ 0.1-10h was used for the research. The study was carried out on a Hitachi H-8000 STEM at 200 kV.

Background: The relationship between suicidal thinking and adolescent dating violence has not been previously explored in a sample of adolescent abortion patients. Aims: This paper highlights a study where the relationship between dating violence and severity of suicidal thinking was examined in a sample of 120 young women ages 14–21 seeking to terminate an unintended pregnancy. Methods: The Multidimensional Adolescent Assessment Scale and the Conflict in Adolescent Relationships Scale was used to gather information about psychosocial problems and dating violence so that the relationship between the two problems could be examined, while controlling for the other psychosocial problems. Results: The results suggest that dating violence was related to severity of suicidal thinking, and that the magnitude of this relationship was moderated by the severity of problems with aggression. Conclusions: Specifically, as the severity of participant’s general problems with aggression increased, the magnitude of the relationship between dating violence and severity of suicidal thinking increased. Limitations of the study and implications for practice are discussed.

When people are told that their negative memories are worse than other people’s, do they later remember those events differently? We asked participants to recall a recent negative memory then, 24 h later, we gave some participants feedback about the emotional impact of their event – stating it was more or less negative compared to other people’s experiences. One week later, participants recalled the event again. We predicted that if feedback affected how participants remembered their negative experiences, their ratings of the memory’s characteristics should change over time. That is, when participants are told that their negative event is extremely negative, their memories should be more vivid, recollected strongly, and remembered from a personal perspective, compared to participants in the other conditions. Our results provide support for this hypothesis. We suggest that external feedback might be a potential mechanism in the relationship between negative memories and psychological well-being.

SummaryThe relationship between haematocrit and cardiovascular risk factors, particularly blood pressure and blood lipids, has been examined in detail in a large prospective study of 7735 middle-aged men drawn from general practices in 24 British towns. The analyses are restricted to the 5494 men free of any evidence of ischaemic heart disease at screening.Smoking, body mass index, physical activity, alcohol intake and lung function (FEV1) were factors strongly associated with haematocrit levels independent of each other. Age showed a significant but small independent association with haematocrit. Non-manual workers had slightly higher haematocrit levels than manual workers; this difference increased considerably and became significant after adjustment for the other risk factors. Diabetics showed significantly lower levels of haematocrit than non-diabetics. In the univariate analysis, haematocrit was significantly associated with total serum protein (r = 0*18), cholesterol (r = 0.16), triglyceride (r = 0.15), diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.17) and heart rate (r = 0.14); all at p <0.0001. A weaker but significant association was seen with systolic blood pressure (r = 0.09, p <0.001). These relationships remained significant even after adjustment for age, smoking, body mass index, physical activity, alcohol intake, lung function, presence of diabetes, social class and for each of the other biological variables; the relationship with systolic blood pressure was considerably weakened. No association was seen with blood glucose and HDL-cholesterol. This study has shown significant associations between several lifestyle characteristics and the haematocrit and supports the findings of a significant relationship between the haematocrit and blood lipids and blood pressure. It emphasises the role of the haematocrit in assessing the risk of ischaemic heart disease and stroke in individuals, and the need to take haematocrit levels into account in determining the importance of other cardiovascular risk factors.

The review outlines the connection between E. Reinert’s book and the tradition of structural analysis. The latter allows for the heterogeneity of industries and sectors of the economy, as well as for the effects of increasing and decreasing returns. Unlike the static theory of international trade inherited from the Ricardian analysis of comparative advantage, this approach helps identify the relationship between trade, production, income and population growth. Reinert rehabilitates the “other canon” of economic theory associated with the mercantilist tradition, F. Liszt and the German historical school, as well as a reconside ration of A. Marshall’s analysis of increasing returns. Empirical illustrations given in the book reveal clear parallels with the path of Russian socio-economic development in the last twenty years.
