The Vickers hardness time-temperature-properties (TTP) curve of aluminum alloy 7055 was evaluated by interrupted quench technique. The critical temperature range of TTP curve was determined from 210 °C to 420 °C with the nose temperature of 355 °C. The hardness decreased rapidly with isothermal duration in the critical temperature range. The hardness of aluminum alloy 7055 was predicted by quench factor analysis using the TTP curve and cooling curves. The predicted hardness agreed reasonably well with the measured results. The influence of time step and summation temperature range on the predicted results was studied. The cooling rate through the critical temperature range had dominant influence on the final hardness of the alloy.

This study is focused on the deformation mechanism and behavior of naturally aged 7010 aluminum alloy at elevated temperatures. The specimens were naturally aged for 60 days to reach a saturated hardness state. High-temperature tensile tests for the naturally aged sample were conducted at different temperatures of 573, 623, 673, and 723 K at various strain rates ranging from 5 × 10−5 to 10−2 s−1. The dependency of stress on the strain rate showed a stress exponent, n, of ~6.5 for the low two temperatures and ~4.5 for the high two temperatures. The apparent activation energies of 290 and 165 kJ/mol are observed at the low, and high-temperature range, respectively. These values of activation energies are greater than those of solute/solvent self-diffusion. The stress exponents, n, and activation energy observed are rather high and this indicates the presence of threshold stress. This behavior occurred as a result of the dislocation interaction with the second phase particles that are existed in the alloy at the testing temperatures. The threshold stress decreases in an exponential manner as temperature increases. The true activation energy was computed by incorporating the threshold stress in the power-law relation between the stress and the strain. The magnitude of the true activation energy, Qt dropped to 234 and 102 kJ/mol at the low and high-temperature range, respectively. These values are close to that of diffusion of Zinc in Aluminum and diffusion of Magnesium in Aluminum, respectively. The Zener–Hollomon parameter for the alloy was developed as a function of effective stress. The data in each region (low and high-temperature region) coalescence in a segment line in each region.

The index of refraction at 6328 Å has been measured for germane in the density range 0.15 to 0.9 g/cm3. The temperature and density ranges over which measurements are made are near the coexistence curve. The coefficient in the Lorenz–Lorentz expression, [Formula: see text], is constant to within 0.5% within experimental error for the temperature range and density range studied. The coefficient is slightly higher near the critical density. The critical density is measured to be 0.503 g/cm3. The critical temperature is measured to be 38.92 °C.

AbstractAlloy 825 is a nickel-based alloy that is commonly used in applications where both high strength and corrosion resistance are required, such as tanks in the chemical, food and petrochemical industries and oil and gas pipelines. Components made from Alloy 825 are often manufactured using hot deformation. However, there is no systematic study to optimise the processing conditions reported in literature. In this study, a processing map for as-cast Alloy 825 is established to maximise the power dissipation efficiency of hot deformation in the temperature range of 950 to 1250 °C at an interval of 50 °C and strain rate range of $$0.01\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.01 s - 1 to $$10.0\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 10.0 s - 1 to a true strain of $$0.7$$ 0.7 using a Gleeble-3500 thermomechanical simulator. The processing conditions are also correlated to the Vickers hardness of the final material, which is also characterised using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, including electron backscattered diffraction. The true stress-true strain curves exhibit peak stresses followed by softening due to occurrence of dynamic recrystallization. The activation energy for plastic flow in the temperature range tested is approximately $$450\,{\text{ kJ mol}}^{ - 1}$$ 450 kJ mol - 1 , and the value of the stress exponent in the (hyperbolic sine-based) constitutive equation, $$n = 5.0$$ n = 5.0 , suggests that the rate-limiting mechanism of deformation is dislocation climb. Increasing deformation temperature led to a lower Vickers hardness in the deformed material, due to increased dynamic recrystallization. Raising the strain rate led to an increase in Vickers hardness in the deformed material due to increased work hardening. The maximum power dissipation efficiency is over $$35\%$$ 35 % , obtained for deformation in the temperature range 1100-1250 °C and a strain rate of $$0.01\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.01 s - 1 -$$0.1\, {\text{s}}^{ - 1}$$ 0.1 s - 1 . These are the optimum conditions for hot working.

ABSTRACTThe authors have reported in the previous study that the sluggish decomposition of Nb3Si phase is effectively accelerated by Zr addition [1]. This is obvious at lower temperature range than the nose temperature of the TTT curve. In the present study a eutectic alloy containing 1.5 % of Zr was investigated. The crystallographic orientation relationships among phases, such as eutectic Nb and product phases formed by eutectoid decomposition of Nb3Si (eutectoid Nb and Nb5Si3phases) in the Zr-containing sample which was heat treated at 1300°C were investigated by FESEM/EBSD for further understanding of the decomposition process in alloy with a different microstructure.

Hot Press Forming

This paper aims to predict the hardness of hot formed part for tailor rolled blank (TRB) by the FE-simulation coupled with quenching factor analysis (QFA). Dilatometry test of boron steel is performed at various range of cooling rates from 0.2 to 100°C/s using the dilatometer with forced air cooling system. The dilatometry test provides a hardness data according to cooling curves which are used to determine the material constants (K1~K5) of QFA and the time‒temperature‒property (TTP) diagram of boron steel. Then, FE‒simulation of hot press forming is conducted to predict the cooling curves of hot formed TRB part with a thickness combination of thicker 1.6mm and thinner 1.2mm which is called as rear side member of automotive component. The cooling curves of FE-simulation are applied to predict the hardness of hot formed rear side member using the QFA. Also, experiment of hot press forming is performed to verify the predicted results and to examine the effect of cooling curves on the hardness.

Mammalian Spermatozoa

Experiments in this and other countries on the preservation of spermatozoa at very low temperatures have shown that no mammalian spermatozoa so far examined survive freezing when they are cooled ultra-rapidly from temperatures above freezing point to temperatures of — 79° C or below. Slow cooling and the addition of glycerol to the media in which the spermatozoa are suspended, however, permits survival of the spermatozoa of many species. In different animals, there are marked variations in the resistance of their spermatozoa to freezing and the proportion of spermatozoa which can be revived from very low temperatures may be influenced both by the concentration of glycerol added to the semen and by the composition of the diluting fluid. In experiments with the spermatozoa of the bull, ram, stallion and boar it has been found that during slow cooling to — 79° C there is a critical temperature range between — 15 and — 25° C at which the greatest amount of damage occurs. The rate at which the capacity for motility of the spermatozoa is destroyed within this critical temperature range is considerably reduced by allowing the spermatozoa to stand at 2° C in contact with a medium containing egg yolk and glycerol for 18 h before freezing. The extent of damage in the critical temperature range may also be reduced by cooling the specimens at a rate of 0-25 to 0-5° per second between —15 and —25° C.

The velocity and absorption of ultrasound (600 kc.) has been measured throughout the critical temperature region of sulphur hexafluoride. Measurements were carried out for the coexisting liquid phase and vapor phase below Tc, and for the supercritical gas, and simultaneously, observations of the meniscus behavior in the neighborhood of Tc were made. The sound velocity for both liquid and vapor phases below Tc decreased with increasing temperature and became equal at Tc, the velocity at this point being 121.5 m. per sec. In the temperature range from 0.6° below Tc to Tc the velocity in the vapor was greater than that in the liquid. A very high absorption of sound was observed, having a maximum value at Tc and extending over a temperature range of approximately 1°. In the temperature range from Tc to 0.6° below Tc, the absorption in the liquid phase was greater than that in the vapour.
