The fatigue tests were conducted for cold-drawn eutectoid steels having different activation energies and microstructures to investigate the mechanism of fatigue strength degradation by irreversible hydrogen. The fatigue strength of a sample with low activation energy was decreased by irreversible hydrogen, whereas the fatigue strength of a sample with high activation energy was not. When the activation energy for irreversible hydrogen becomes small, the desorption of irreversible hydrogen from its trap site is easily induced by cyclic loading, which results in a decrease in fatigue strength. When a sample having high activation energy was annealed at 473 K, the fatigue strength was decreased by irreversible hydrogen although the activation energy barely changed. This is because the precipitation of fine carbides due to annealing causes higher sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement. High sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement was concluded to induce the fatigue strength degradation by irreversible hydrogen. Therefore, the degradation of fatigue strength by irreversible hydrogen depends on the activation energy and sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement.

AbstractWe consider a condensed phase (or solid) combustion model and its linearization around the travelling front solution. We construct an Evans function to characterize the eigenvalues of the linearized problem. We estimate this functional in the high activation energy limit. We deduce the existence of zeros with nonnegative real part for high activation energy, which proves the linear instability of the travelling front solution.

The propagation of detonations through several fuel–air mixtures with spatially varying fuel concentrations is examined numerically. The detonations propagate through two-dimensional channels, inside of which the gradient of mixture composition is oriented normal to the direction of propagation. The simulations are performed using a two-component, single-step reaction model calibrated so that one-dimensional detonation properties of model low- and high-activation-energy mixtures are similar to those observed in a typical hydrocarbon–air mixture. In the low-activation-energy mixture, the reaction zone structure is complex, consisting of curved fuel-lean and fuel-rich detonations near the line of stoichiometry that transition to decoupled shocks and turbulent deflagrations near the channel walls where the mixture is extremely fuel-lean or fuel-rich. Reactants that are not consumed by the leading detonation combine downstream and burn in a diffusion flame. Detonation cells produced by the unstable reaction front vary in size across the channel, growing larger away from the line of stoichiometry. As the size of the channel decreases relative to the size of a detonation cell, the effect of the mixture composition gradient is lessened and cells of similar sizes form. In the high-activation-energy mixture, detonations propagate more slowly as the magnitude of the mixture composition gradient is increased and can be quenched in a large enough gradient.

Here, we constructed Pb-free Cu-DABDT-MOFs-based (DABDT = 2,5-diamino-1,4-benzenedithiol dihydrochloride) X-ray detectors. Combined with the advantage of high activation energy, Cu-DABDT-MOFs-based detector can effectively generate and capture electron under X-ray exposure...
