A Maximum Likelihood Method for Estimating Probabilistic Strain Amplitude-Fatigue Life Curves

The fatigue lives of materials and structures at different strain levels show heteroscedasticity. In addition, when the number of test specimens is insufficient, the fatigue strength coefficient and fatigue ductility coefficient of the fitting parameters in the total strain life equation may not have definite physical significance. In this work, a maximum likelihood method for estimating probabilistic strain amplitude-fatigue life curves is presented based on the fatigue lives at different strain levels. The proposed method is based on the general basic assumption that the logarithm of fatigue life at an arbitrary strain level is normally distributed. The relationship among the parameters of total strain life equation, monotonic ultimate tensile stress and percentage reduction of area is adopted. The presented approach is finally illustrated by two applications. It is shown that probabilistic strain amplitude-fatigue life curves can be easily estimated based on the maximum likelihood method. The results show that fatigue lives at different strain levels have heteroscedasticity and the values of fatigue strength coefficient and fatigue ductility coefficient obtained by the proposed method are close to those of the true tensile fracture stress and true tensile fracture strain.

Preparation and characterization of poly(melamine-formaldehyde) microcapsules filled with propisochlor

A novel propisochlor microcapsules suspension (CS) was prepared via in-situ polymerization. The preparation of melamine-formaldehyde resin microcapsules containing propisochlor with different ratios of core-shell material was investigated. The synthesized microcapsules were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer, Scanning Electron Microscope, Ultraviolet spectrometry, Thermogravimetric analyses and particle size analyzer. As the ratio of core/shell was 1, the diameter of the prepared microcapsules was the smallest (3.55?µm), while narrowest size distribution (span: 1.19) and the melamine formaldehyde microcapsules possessed the highest encapsulation efficiency (93.26%). The surface of the microcapsules was smooth and the microcapsules had poor adhesion. These microcapsules had compact microstructures and global shapes, which had a good thermal stability and propisochlor could be preserved better in the poly(melamine-formaldehyde) (PMF) microcapsules. These results indicated that the prepared microcapsule had better performance. Additionally, the propisochlor was easily degraded through microorganisms and had a short half-life. The microcapsule suspension of propisochlor hasn’t been researched yet. Therefore, it is significant to prepare microcapsule suspension. The technology of controlled release has effectively prolonged the persistence of active ingredients. More importantly, there is no use of organic solvents in the preparation of microcapsules suspension, which avoided the pollution of solvents to the ecological environment.     

A first principle study of hydrogenated graphdiyne

Based on recently synthesized two-dimensional graphdiyne, we have constructed several hydrogenated graphdiyne structures and studied their electronic structures and magnetic properties by first-principles calculations. Both direct and indirect band gap semiconductors are found in the nomagnetic hydrogenated configurations. Moreover, half semiconductors are found in the magnetic ground states of some hydrogenated graphdiyne structures we considered, although there is no transition metal element in the materials.

Influence of Mo on the Microstructure and Corrosion Behavior of Laser Cladding FeCoCrNi High-Entropy Alloy Coatings

FeCoCrNi and FeCoNiCrMo_0.2 high-entropy alloy powders were prepared by gas atomization. Two kinds of coatings were prepared on the surface of 304 stainless steel by laser cladding technology. The effect of Mo element on the microstructure of laser cladding FeCoCrNi coating and its corrosion behavior in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution was investigated. Both FeCoCrNi and FeCoCrNiMo_0.2 powders exhibit a single-phase FCC structure. Due to the remelting and multiple heat treatments during the preparation of the laser cladding coating, a small amount of σ and μ phases appeared in the FeCoCrNiMo_0.2 coating. The microstructures of the two coatings from the bonding area to the top layer are planar, columnar and equiaxed grains, respectively. The addition of the Mo element causes the dendrite size in the middle region of the FeCoCrNiMo_0.2 coating increases significantly and exhibits obvious orientation characteristics. FeCoCrNiMo_0.2 coating has high corrosion potential (−0.01 V_SHE) and low current density (0.94 × 10⁻⁷ A/cm²) in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution, showing excellent corrosion resistance. The passivation film formed on corroded the FeCoCrNiMo_0.2 coating contains high content of oxides of Cr and Mo. The addition of the Mo element enhances the compactness and pitting resistance of the passivation film.     

Stimuli‐Responsive Circularly Polarized Organic Ultralong Room Temperature Phosphorescence

Purely organic materials showing room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and ultralong RTP (OURTP) have recently attracted much attention. However, it is challenging to integrate circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) into RTP/OURTP. Here, we show a strategy to realize CPL‐active OURTP (CP‐OURTP) by binding an achiral phosphor group directly to the chiral center of an ester chain. Engineering of this flexible chiral chain enables efficient chirality transfer to carbazole aggregates, resulting in strong CP‐OURTP with a lifetime of over 0.6 s and dissymmetry factor of 2.3×10^?3 after the conformation regulation upon photo‐activation. The realized CP‐OURTP is thus stable at room temperature but can be deactivated quickly at 50 °C to CP‐RTP with high CPL stability during the photo‐activation/thermal‐deactivation cycles. Based on this extraordinary photo/thermal‐responsive and highly reversible CP‐OURTP/RTP, a CPL‐featured lifetime‐encrypted combinational logic device has been successfully established.
