Introduction The control of grain structure represents a fundamental aspect in developing the desired mechanical properties and formability characteristics in aluminium alloys.
Both dispersoid types typically exhibit sub-micrometer dimensions (100-300 nm) and develop at considerable number densities during homogenization, thereby providing effective anchoring points for grain boundaries and substantially retarding recrystallization processes during subsequent hot deformation.
The Smith–Zener pinning effect of dispersoids has been shown to refine the grain structure after hot rolling significantly.
Input was the equilibrated composition profiles of solute elements across the grain interiors of the α-Al matrix as calculated from DICTRA at t = 10 hrs.
These results underscore the critical role of dispersoids in retarding grain boundary mobility, thereby effectively suppressing recrystallization and controlling the grain structure during subsequent thermomechanical processing (Fig. 4c).

Its phase composition and microstructure were characterized by using XRD, SEM,and its high temperature anti-oxidation property were studied by isothermal oxidation tests.The results showed that the coating is composed of mainly α-SiC and β-SiC,the coating is uniform, compact, perfect grain growth, without crack, closely with the C/C materials,the thickness is about 600μm.
In the first stage, carbonaceous material on the surface of C/C composites reacted with siliceous gas of the furnace and formated SiC; in the second stage, a large number of SiC was synthesized in furnace when the temperature of furnace core reached the 2600 [12], at so Fig. 1 XRD patterns of SiC coating high temperature, the surface of synthesized solid-phase SiC which easily decomposed or evaporated and turned into vapour was called SiC reactivity gas, such as Si,Si2C,SiC2,SiC, the gas agglomerated, deposited and reacted in the pores structure inner ceramic coating formating SiC.
From Fig.2b, it can be seen that large SiC grains together with micro-crystals are both present on the coating surfaces, its morphologies mainly be composed of well-crystallized, hexagonal, dense SiC crystal, which is advantageous to improving the oxidation resistance of the coating.
The transition layer with a thickness of around 200μm is not very dense.This layer was formated by reating carbon residue with SiO gas and generated SiC, which keeped vitreous carbon structure with a large number of porous structure; reating substrat with SiO gas and generated SiC,which had same structure with the matrix, therefor there had a perfect transition gradient of phase structure from C to SiC and good associativity, the coating had good chemical compatibility with C/C composites,it will be avoid that the coating occur crack,even separate from substrat because expansion coefficient mismatch during high temperature environment.
In the first stage, resin of the coting was carbonized and formating high-carbon residue vitreous carbon at high temperature, at the same time gas SiO, Si, SiO2 , etc of SiC industrial synthesis furnace diffused into the porous structure of the coating and reacted with those vitreous carbon, petroleum coke, then formated SiC, which retained the structure of carbon network porous structure, this stage occurred in the early stage of synthesis SiC; the second stage was the key stage of obtaining excellent performance of high temperature anti-oxidation coating, to occurr in the later stage of synthesis silicon carbide, a large number of SiC synthesized in this furnace easily evaporated and turned into gas Si, Si2C, SiC2.

Only a small proportion of the diamond grits can penetrate the flexible pad surface; most diamond grits are attached to the disk with no function, affecting the number of working diamonds, and the diamond disk life.
The PCD substrate is formed from inter-grown matrix microscopic diamond grains (e.g. 10 microns) with a volume-occupancy of over 95%.
Each diamond grain is strongly supported by merging with surrounding grains, so the global structure is virtually a continuous diamond mass.
In the Figure, the number of effective cutting tips of the PCDD was larger than that of the BDD, owing to the PCDD having identically shaped tips.
This implies that the PCDD has a much larger number of cutting tips that are sharing the dressing loading.

The grain composition and the physical-mechanical properties (Table 2) of the soil are tested according to the method in Test Methods of Soils for Highway Engineering JTG E40-200.

The test results show that under the same loads in the working condition A2 (the number of geogrid N=0, the differential settlement of embankment △S=30mm) the settlement of loading board is greatest but the vertical settlement deformation can be apparently reduced after the geogrid are set-in.
By comparing the working conditions of A2 and C3 (the number of geogrid N=2, the differential settlement of embankment △S=30mm), with the same △S initially, when the load is below 50.4kN whether there is a geogrid has little impact on settlement, but when the loads are 63kN, 75.6kN, 88.2kN, and 100.8kN the settlement in C3 reduces apparently which is amount to 86%, 74%, 64% and 52% of that in A2; hence, the geogrid has greater impact on decreasing vertical settlement in C3 than in A2.

Fig.2 Temperature curve of different samples at 1 200 oC Fig.3 The thermal insulation property of different temperature Fig.4 SEM morphology of sample surface Fig.5 SEM micrograph of fracture surface For the thermal barrier coating of nano-Al2O3 coated ZrO2/Y2O3 powder, in the nanostructure field of the unmelted nano-powder, a large number of coating grain boundary and tiny pores of nano size enhanced photon scattering effect and decreased the thermal conductivity of the coating.
Therefore, the number of grain boundary, pores and the internal layer structure of the coating increased with the coating thickness increasing, which improved the thermal insulation performance of the coating.
The former is composed of many nano composite particles, which have a large number of voids and interface.
Effect of thermal treatment on the grain growth of nanostructured YSZ thermal barrier coating prepared by air plasma spraying.
