Therefore,understanding the effects of NPBA on the deformation and damage evolution of the NEPE propellant is fundamental to material design and applications. This paper studies the uniaxial tensile and stress relaxation responses of the NEPE propellant with different amounts of NPBA. The damage evolution in terms of interface debonding is further investigated using a cohesive-zone model(CZM). Experimental results show that the initial modulus and strength of the NEPE propellant increase with the increasing amount of NPBA while the elongation decreases. Meanwhile, the relaxation rate slows down and a higher long-term equilibrium modulus is reached. Experimental and numerical analyses indicate that interface debonding and crack propagation along filler-matrix interface are the dominant damage mechanism for the samples with a low amount of NPBA, while damage localization and crack advancement through the matrix are predominant for the ones with a high amount of NPBA. Finally, crosslinking density tests and simulation results also show that the effect of the bonding agent is interfacial rather than due to the overall crosslinking density change of the binder.展开更多

The finished Al/CFs composite sheet has CFs and pure Al sheets as sandwich and surface layers. After cross-section observation of the Al/CFs composite sheet, we found that the CFs discretely distributed within the sandwich layer. Besides, the tensile test showed that the contribution of the sandwich CFs layer to tensile strength was less than 11% compared with annealed pure Al sheet. With ex-situ observation of the CFs breakage evolution with-16%,-32%, and-45% rolling reduction during the ARB process, the plastic instability of the Al layer was found to bring shear damages to the CFs. At last, the bridging strengthening mechanism introduced by CFs was sacrificed. We provide new insight into and instruction on Al/CFs composite sheet preparation method and processing parameters.展开更多

In Japan, the Japanese version of the Mother-to-Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS-J) is widely used for early detection of bonding disorders. Repeated use of a questionnaire has problems of reduced validity. In order to correctly detect bonding disorders at multiple time points, it is necessary to confirm the measurement invariance of the scale. Baba et al. reported that invariance of the MIBS-J factor structure could only be obtained by abridging the scale into three items. Purpose: The aim of this study was to 1) confirm the factor structure and measurement invariance of the MIBS-J between two measurement times and 2) to examine factors that can be used without being affected by measurement time in order to identify item that contribute to measure met invariance. Methods: We analysed the data of 1049 and 878 mothers with a neonate collected in two waves: 5 days (Wave 1) and 1 month postpartum (Wave 2). Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted on the data randomly divided into two groups in each wave. Results: The three-item model (MIBS-J items 1, 6, and 8) was most accepted. Measurement invariance and structural invariance were confirmed in the model. This was consistent with Baba et al.’s model. Conclusion: The three MIBS-J items showed measurement invariance and structural invariance in Japanese mothers during 1 month postpartum.展开更多

Noble-metal aerogels have drawn increasing attention for high conduction and low density. However,the noble metal aerogels with outstanding solderability were rarely studied. This work has successfully synthesized an aerogel derived from silver nanowires(AgNWs) using a liquid phase reduction method. It is found that the noble metal aerogels can be made into diverse aerogel preformed soldering sheets. The influence of bonding temperature(150-300 ℃), time(2-20 min), and pressure(5-20 MPa) on the joint strength of the AgNWs aerogel affixed to electroless nickel/silver copper plates were investigated. Additionally, the AgNWs aerogel displays almost the same shear strength for substrates of various sizes. In a word, this study presents a flux-free, high-strength, and adaptable soldering structural material.展开更多

Methods: A total of 66 newly extracted permanent molars were used in this study. Eighteen teeth were used as a control and did not undergo thermal aging (six per group). All sample teeth were randomly divided into three groups: KetacCem, RelyX Luting Plus, and RelyX Unicem 2. After bonding procedures, all experimental groups undergo thermal aging. The shear bond strength of all samples was conducted using the Ultratester machine. Findings were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA and Turkey’s post hoc tests. Results: Among the examined groups, Ketac Cem presented with the highest recorded shear bond (11.4 MPa), while RelyX Luting Plus showed the lowest (3.2 MPa). The control groups recorded the highest shear bond strength compared to all examined groups;Ketac Cem showed the highest shear bond strength (12.8 Mpa), and RelyX Luting Plus had the least recorded reading (5.4 Mpa). Conclusion: Within the limitation of the present study, there was a statistically significant difference between the examined groups;Ketac Cem showed a higher shear bond cement than RelyX luting Plus and RelyX Unicem.展开更多

With electron beam as the non-melted heat source, previous experimental study performed on titanium alloys has proved the feasibility of TSCB. However, the thermal stress–strain process during bonding, which is of very important significance in revealing the mechanism of TSCB, was not analysed. In this paper, finite element analysis method is adopted to numerically study the thermal elasto-plastic stress–strain cycle of thermal self-compressing bonding. It is found that due to the localized heating, a non-uniform temperature distribution is formed during bonding, with the highest temperature existed on the bond interface. The expansion of high temperature materials adjacent to the bond interface are restrained by surrounding cool materials and rigid restraints, and thus an internal elasto-plastic stress–strain field is developed by itself which makes the bond interface subjected to thermal compressive action. This thermal self-compressing action combined with the high temperature on the bond interface promotes the atom diffusion across the bond interface to produce solid-state joints. Due to the relatively large plastic deformation, rigid restraint TSCB obtains sound joints in relatively short time compared to diffusion bonding.展开更多

文摘The electronic product has gravitated towards component miniaturization and integration, employment of lead-free materials, and low-temperature soldering processes. Noble-metal aerogels have drawn increasing attention for high conduction and low density. However,the noble metal aerogels with outstanding solderability were rarely studied. This work has successfully synthesized an aerogel derived from silver nanowires(AgNWs) using a liquid phase reduction method. It is found that the noble metal aerogels can be made into diverse aerogel preformed soldering sheets. The influence of bonding temperature(150-300 ℃), time(2-20 min), and pressure(5-20 MPa) on the joint strength of the AgNWs aerogel affixed to electroless nickel/silver copper plates were investigated. Additionally, the AgNWs aerogel displays almost the same shear strength for substrates of various sizes. In a word, this study presents a flux-free, high-strength, and adaptable soldering structural material.

文摘The interlayer contact condition of asphalt pavement has a significant impact on stress transfer and energy dissipation with adjacent layers,so a model considering the bonding condition of adjacent layers is introduced for evaluating the structural response of asphalt pavement.The pavement structure,the material characterization with temperature,the interlayer contact bonding model,the types of bond failure,and the prediction method of pavement life are described in detail.Results show that the transversely tensile strains at the top of asphalt pavement under the condition of high temperature were easy to cause the top-down cracking outside the edge of the dual tire.The bonding failure has a significant influence on strains at the bottom of the surface course with the condition of high temperature,especially,the longitudinally tensile strains would increase obviously as the disengaging area between the surface course of asphalt pavement and the base layer increases.Finally,it is proved that the surface course is vulnerable to form deformations and cause damage under the combined action of low speed and high temperature.

文摘In the case of valuable cold-rolled Cu/Al clad plates,billet surface treatment before rolling is a significant process that can affect the bonding efficiency and quality.While the current studies primarily focus on the influence of rolling parameters,insufficient attention has been paid to surface treatment.In this study,the effects of mechanical surface treatment on the bonding mechanism and bonding properties of cold-rolled Cu/Al clad plates were investigated.The results showed that different mechanical surface treatments have significant effects on the surface morphology,roughness,and residual stress.In addition,the effect of surface mechanical treatment on bonding quality was also observed to be critical.When the grinding direction was consistent with the rolling direction(RD),the bonding quality of the Cu/Al clad plates was significantly improved.After surface treatment along the RD for 20 s,the Cu/Al clad plates showed the highest shear strength(78 MPa),approximately four times as high as that of the unpolished samples.Simultaneously,the peel strength of this process was also significantly higher than that achieved via the other processes.Finally,on the basis of the surface morphology,roughness,and residual stress,the effect of surface treatment on the bonding mechanism and bonding properties of Cu/Al clad plates was analyzed.This study proposes a deeper understanding of the bonding behavior and bonding mechanism for cold rolled clad plates processed via mechanical surface treatment.

文摘Insulating polymers are characterized by a predominantlyσ-covalent structure,which localize electrons in the atoms and exhibit dielectricity.Insulating polymers typically adopt a more linear and extended conformation,as the repeating units are connected by single covalent bonds,resulting in a relatively straight and extended chain structure.For most insulating polymers,the contour length(L_(c))is significantly larger than their persistence length(Lp)due to the rotation of C−C single bonds(Fig.1(a)).Consequently,this leads to a flexible,random-coil chain conformation.This structural feature contributes to the great mechanical durability and resistance to crack initiation during stretching or bending processes.In contrast,conjugated polymers possess aπ-conjugated molecular structure,allowing electron mobility along the main chain,called delocalization,which imparts semiconducting properties[1,2].The presence of rigid,alternating single and multiple bonds results in comparable Lc and Lp,thereby yielding a stiff or semi-flexible conformation(Fig.1(b))[3,4].As a consequence,most conjugated polymers are prone to fracture under low strain levels(<10%)[5−7].

文摘A novel method for detecting early damage at the steel-concrete interface due to external loading based on AC impedance spectroscopy technology was proposed.Firstly,alkali pretreatment was introduced to ensure the accuracy and repeatability of the AC impedance test.Secondly,the AC impedance spectroscopy between the steel bar and concrete surface of different bonding positions was tested,and then the physical quantities reflecting the bonding damage condition were obtained by equivalent circuit fitting.Theoretical debonding position calculation and AC conductive structure analysis indicate that the change of interface resistance and interface capacitance can seize the development of bonding damage during the loading process.As the interface damage develops,obvious changes in interface resistance and interface capacitance are observed,and they cannot be recovered after unloading.

文摘Oxygen anion redox reaction provides a high theoretical capacity for Li-rich manganese-based cathodes.However,irreversible surface oxygen release often results in further oxygen loss and exacerbates the decomposition of the electrolyte,which could reduce the capacity contribution from the anionic redox and produce more acidic substances to corrode the surface of the material.In this paper,the surface oxygen release is suppressed by moderating oxygen anion redox activity via constructing chemical bonds between M(M=Fe and La)in LaFeO_(3)and surface oxygen anions of Li_(1.2)Mn_(0.6)Ni_(0.2)O_(2).The constructed interface layer stabilizes the surface lattice oxygen and retards the electrolyte from being attacked by the nucleophilic oxygen generated in the process of oxygen release,as evidenced by Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry(DEMS)and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS)detections.Moreover,in the charge and discharge process,the formed FeF_(3),located at the cathode electrolyte interfacial layer,is conducive to the stability of the cathode surface.The modified Li_(1.2)Mn_(0.6)Ni_(0.2)O_(2)electrode with 3 wt%LaFeO_(13)exhibits a high specific capacity of 189.5 mA h g-at 1C(200 mA g^(-1))after 150 cycles with capacity retentions of 96.6%,and 112.6 mA h g^(-1)(84.7%)at 5C after 200 cycles higher than the pristine sample.This study provides a rational design chemical bonding method to suppress the oxygen release from the cathode surface and enhance cyclic stability.
文摘Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of thermal aging on the shear bond strength of three different types of cement used to retain band and loop space maintainers cemented on extracted human permanent molar teeth. Methods: A total of 66 newly extracted permanent molars were used in this study. Eighteen teeth were used as a control and did not undergo thermal aging (six per group). All sample teeth were randomly divided into three groups: KetacCem, RelyX Luting Plus, and RelyX Unicem 2. After bonding procedures, all experimental groups undergo thermal aging. The shear bond strength of all samples was conducted using the Ultratester machine. Findings were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA and Turkey’s post hoc tests. Results: Among the examined groups, Ketac Cem presented with the highest recorded shear bond (11.4 MPa), while RelyX Luting Plus showed the lowest (3.2 MPa). The control groups recorded the highest shear bond strength compared to all examined groups;Ketac Cem showed the highest shear bond strength (12.8 Mpa), and RelyX Luting Plus had the least recorded reading (5.4 Mpa). Conclusion: Within the limitation of the present study, there was a statistically significant difference between the examined groups;Ketac Cem showed a higher shear bond cement than RelyX luting Plus and RelyX Unicem.

文摘Interfacial structure greatly affects the mechanical properties of laminated plates.However,the critical material properties that impact the interfacial morphology,appearance,and associated bonding mechanism of explosive welded plates are still unknown.In this paper,the same base plate(AZ31B alloy)and different flyer metals(aluminum alloy,copper,and stainless steel)were used to investigate interfacial morphology and structure.SEM and TEM results showed that typical sine wave,wave-like,and half-wave-like interfaces were found at the bonding interfaces of Al/Mg,Cu/Mg and SS/Mg clad plates,respectively.The different interfacial morphologies were mainly due to the differences in hardness and yield strength between the flyer and base metals.The results of the microstructural distribution at the bonding interface indicated metallurgical bonding,instead of the commonly believed solid-state bonding,in the explosive welded clad plate.In addition,the shear strength of the bonding interface of the explosive welded Al/Mg,Cu/Mg and SS/Mg clad plates can reach up to 201.2 MPa,147.8 MPa,and 128.4 MPa,respectively.The proposed research provides the design basis for laminated composite metal plates fabrication by explosive welding technology.

文摘Thermal self-compressing bonding(TSCB) is a new solid-state bonding method pioneered by the authors. With electron beam as the non-melted heat source, previous experimental study performed on titanium alloys has proved the feasibility of TSCB. However, the thermal stress–strain process during bonding, which is of very important significance in revealing the mechanism of TSCB, was not analysed. In this paper, finite element analysis method is adopted to numerically study the thermal elasto-plastic stress–strain cycle of thermal self-compressing bonding. It is found that due to the localized heating, a non-uniform temperature distribution is formed during bonding, with the highest temperature existed on the bond interface. The expansion of high temperature materials adjacent to the bond interface are restrained by surrounding cool materials and rigid restraints, and thus an internal elasto-plastic stress–strain field is developed by itself which makes the bond interface subjected to thermal compressive action. This thermal self-compressing action combined with the high temperature on the bond interface promotes the atom diffusion across the bond interface to produce solid-state joints. Due to the relatively large plastic deformation, rigid restraint TSCB obtains sound joints in relatively short time compared to diffusion bonding.

文摘Currently,wire bonding is the most popular first-level interconnection technology used between the die and package terminals,but even with its long-term and excessive usage,the mechanism of wire bonding has not been completely evaluated.Therefore,fundamental research is still needed.In this study,the mechanism of microweld formation and breakage during Cu-Cu wire bonding was investigated by using molecular dynamics simulation.The contact model for the nanoindentation process between the wire and substrate was developed to simulate the contact process of the Cu wire and Cu substrate.Elastic contact and plastic instability were investigated through the loading and unloading processes.Moreover,the evolution of the indentation morphology and distributions of the atomic stress were also investigated.It was shown that the loading and unloading curves do not coincide,and the unloading curve exhibited hysteresis.For the substrate,in the loading process,the main force changed from attractive to repulsive.The maximum von Mises stress increased and shifted from the center toward the edge of the contact area.During the unloading process,the main force changed from repulsive to attractive.The Mises stress reduced first and then increased.Stress concentration occurs around dislocations in the middle area of the Cu wire.
