Abstract The application of Nb3Sn superconductor joints is an important part in the production of ITER, MRI and so on. This paper first introduced the application, like coil of MRI, and basic information including the micro crystal structure of Nb3Sn superconductor, which includes the theoretical critical temperature of 18.1K, even mostly, experiments take place under 4.2K, which is the boiling point of liquid helium. Second, it talked a little about the production of CICC joints in industry. Then, mainly introduced the testing device, material parameters and testing procedures of resistance testing of Nb3Sn joints. Concluded all the data from several tests and summarized it. At last, it displayed some of its mechanical property especially about its brittle property and discussed some details in manufacture. Finally conclude about them all.

Fluorine substitution in the Bi(2223), Bi(2212) and Tl(1223) superconducting phases was studied. We obtained superconducting structures, never observed before, of the Bi-based superconductors by a low temperature (200-400 °C) fluorination process. Fluorine substitutes completely the oxygen sites in the Bi layers and additional F atoms are inserted in the structure. As a consequence, changes in the arrangements of cation and anions were induced, especially in the Bi and partially in the Sr layer. F-doped Tl(1223) has been prepared in the same way as Bi(2223) and Bi(2212) (low temperature fluorination), but also starting from precursor containing fluorides of different elements. No significant differences in the crystal structure have been observed between the Tl-based samples with F inclusions and without. The critical temperature (116 K) remains unchanged but a significant increase of the irreversibility field at low temperature was found.

In this paper, the crystallinity, tensile strength and hydrophility of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filled with 7wt.% Y2O3-ZrO2 (YSZ) were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), mechanical property testing and low-temperature plasma. The results show that the crystallinity gradually increases while tensile strength decreases with the stretch ratio going up; with YSZ content increasing, the tensile strength increases while the crystallinity decreases.

Представлены результаты изучения морфологии поверхности и структуры слоев AlN, сформированных аммиачной МЛЭ на темплейтах 3C-SiC/Si(111) on-axis- и 4° off-axis-разориентации. Опробован технологический режим низкотемпературной эпитаксии зародышевого слоя AlN на поверхности 3C-SiC(111). Среднеквадратичная шероховатость поверхности (5 х 5 мкм) слоев AlN толщиной 150 ± 50 нм составила 2,5-3,5 нм на темплейтах 3C-SiC/Si(111) on-axis и 3,3-3,5 нм на 4° off-axis. Показано уменьшение шероховатости смачивающего слоя AlN при изменении скорости роста. Получены монокристаллические слои AlN(0002) со значениями FWHM (ω-геометрия) 1,4-1,6°. The paper presents the surface morphology and crystal structure of AlN layers formed by ammonia MBE on 3C-SiC/Si(111) on-axis and 4° off-axis disorientation. It offers the technological approach of low-temperature epitaxy of the AlN nucleation layer on the 3C-SiC (111) surface. Root mean square roughness (5 х 5 |xm) of AlN layers with thickness of 150 ± 50 nm was 2,5-3,5 nm onto on-axis templates and 3.3-3.5 nm onto 4° off-axis. It appears that the RMS roughness of the AlN surface is changing with the growth rate variation. Single-crystal AlN(0002) layers with FWHM values (ω-geometry) of 1.4-1.6° have been obtained.

This paper is focused on the field performance of a modular press-brake-formed tub girder (PBFTG) system in short span bridge applications. The scope of this project to conduct a live load field test on West Virginia State Project no. S322-37-3.29 00, a bridge utilizing PBFTGs located near Ranger, West Virginia. The modular PBFTG is a shallow trapezoidal box girder cold-formed using press-brakes from standard mill plate widths and thicknesses. A technical working group within the Steel Market Development Institute’s Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance, led by the current authors, was charged with the development of this concept. Research of PBFTGs has included analyzing the flexural bending capacity using experimental testing and analytical methods. This paper presents the experimental testing procedures and performance of a composite PBFTG bridge.

The structures of the 3d divalent transition-metal diarsenates M 2As2O7 (M = Mn, Co, Ni, Zn) can be considered as variants of the monoclinic (C2/m) thortveitite [Sc2Si2O7] structure type with a ≃ 6.7, b ≃ 8.5, c ≃ 4.7 Å, α ≃ 90, β ≃ 102, γ ≃ 90° and Z = 2. Co2As2O7 and Ni2As2O7 are dimorphic. Their high-temperature (β) polymorphs adopt the thortveitite aristotype structure in C2/m, whereas their low-temperature (α) polymorphs are hettotypes and crystallize with larger unit cells in the triclinic crystal system in space groups P\bar 1 and P1, respectively. Mn2As2O7 undergoes no phase transition and likewise adopts the thortveitite structure type in C2/m. Zn2As2O7 has an incommensurately modulated crystal structure [C2/m(α,0,γ)0s] with q = [0.3190 (1), 0, 0.3717 (1)] at ambient conditions and transforms reversibly to a commensurately modulated structure with Z = 12 (I2/c) below 273 K. The Zn phase resembles the structures and phase transitions of Cr2P2O7. Besides descriptions of the low-temperature Co2As2O7, Ni2As2O7 and Zn2As2O7 structures as five-, three- and sixfold superstructures of the thortveitite-type basic structure, the superspace approach can also be applied to descriptions of all the commensurate structures. In addition to the ternary M 2As2O7 phases, the quaternary phase (Ni,Co)2As2O7 was prepared and structurally characterized. In contrast to the previously published crystal structure of the mineral petewilliamsite, which has the same idealized formula and has been described as a 15-fold superstructure of the thortveitite-type basic structure in space group C2, synthetic (Ni,Co)2As2O7 can be considered as a solid solution adopting the α-Ni2As2O7 structure type. Differences of the two structure models for (Ni,Co)2As2O7 are discussed.
