Abstract: Solid-state amorphization process occurring at 600-1060 °C continuous annealing was observed by non-ambient x-ray diffraction on Fe-3%Si-0.5%Cu alloy surface with MgO as thermostable coating. The phenomenon was occurred at α→γ transformation temperatures (920-960 °C) in a layer consisting of Si solid solution in α-Fe and oxides (MgFe)₂SiO₄, (MgFe)O, SiO₂. Amorphous state remained both during heating and cooling to 20 °C. Simulation for diffusion amorphization of Fe (Si) solid solution was proposed. Mg₂Si complexes are reduced from oxides by hydrogen then transfer to solid solution and solid-state amorphization is occurred.

Abstract: To solve the precision manufacturing of thin-walled irregular-shaped workpiece, the MR fluids flexible fixture was designed and the simulation of device with compression structure was carried out to obtain performance parameters of device for optimizing the device. Then, some experimental test was implemented to verify the feasibility of device. The simulation and experimental results show that the current and coil turns have a great influence on magnetic field, and the shear stress of MR fluids are related with magnetic field and external compression force. The experimental results are in good agreement with simulation ones.

Abstract: This paper summarize idealized theoretical studies of bicomponent particle packing parameters, affecting the phase and pore structure of obtained materials. Such a kind of analysis can be used both in theoretical consideration of material engineering problems and in chemical industry. The effects of key variables on the relationship between packing fraction and particle size were re-examined for general application. Potential applications of these results include synthesis of nanopaterials, adsorbents, catalyst carriers and packing for chromatographic columns. Directions for future research are suggested.

Abstract: A new method of sheet metal forming, water jet incremental sheet metal forming (WJISMF) is presented. We give the schematic illustration of WJISMF system, which includes high pressure system, NC machine, control system, water recycle system, and some attachments, and then the virtual prototype of the system is designed. To predict the whole deformation process, some simulations are carried out. Firstly, fluid structure interaction simulation for WJISMF is performed. The water jet is modeled and simulated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach, while for the material flow in the workpiece a finite element analysis (FEA) is used. Secondly, the relationship between the workpiece material deformation and nozzle diameter, and the relationship between deformation and water pressure are presented. Thirdly, the fluid structure interaction simulation model is simplified to the structure simulation model, by adopting shell 181 element and using a pressure acting on the workpiece directly instead of the CFD model. Finally, a simulation for forming a cone box is done using the simplified model. The simulation provides a powerful rationale for the practical application of WJISMF.
