Effect of heat treatment on the corrosion behavior of 347H stainless steel in molten nitrate salt TANG Meng-lan, WANG Jun, LIU Tian-zeng, LI Jun-chen, FENG Li 2021, 47 (5):  1-9.  Abstract ( 352 )   PDF (11473KB) ( 292 )   Save In this paper, a static molten salt immersion experiment is used to study the corrosion behavior of 347H stainless steel with different grain sizes in mixed nitrate molten salt (60%NaNO3+40%KNO3) at 565 ℃ for up to 120 h. The corrosion kinetic curve is drawn by the weight gain method, the surface corrosion products and phases of 347H stainless steel are studied, and the micro-area composition of the corroded surface is analyzed to explain the corrosion mechanism of 347H stainless steel in nitrate molten salt. The results show that the corrosion rate of 347H stainless steel whose grain size is adjusted by solution treatment decreases during molten salt corrosion, and the corrosion kinetics curve becomes a linear growth trend. Through XRD detection, the corrosion products of 347H stainless steel in molten nitrate salt are mainly Fe2O3 and a small amount of Fe3O4 and NaFeO2. Fe3O4 has a compact structure, which can effectively reduce the corrosion of nitrate molten salt to the steel matrix, resulting in a decrease in the quality loss of 347H stainless steel in the later stage of corrosion. The results of corrosion product morphology and cross section thickness analysis show that the corrosion layer thickness of 347H stainless steel reaches the minimum of 0.661 μm when the grain size of the stainless steel reaches 7 after solution treatment at 1 160 ℃-1 h, and the corrosion resistance of 347H stainless steel in molten nitrate salt reaches the best.

In this method, Manhattan distance was used to measure the similarity between high-dimensional feature vectors,and the data sample marker information was integrated into the weight calculation to enhance the discrimination of weight,so as to improve the sensitive feature screening performance of LS algorithm. A rotor fault diagnosis method based on M-WDLS and PCA was proposed by combining M-WDLS with Principal component analysis (PCA). Firstly, the time domain,frequency domain and time frequency domain of the original vibration signal were extracted to construct the feature set of the mixed domain. Then, sensitive features were selected by M-WDLS to form sensitive feature matrix. Finally, the sensitive feature matrix was reduced by PCA and the result was input into k-nearest neighbor classifier (KNN) for pattern recognition. The experimental results showed that this method could effectively extract the vibration signal characteristics of the rotor system and improve the accuracy of fault identification.

Analysis results show that the volume flow rate of compressor is less than that of the vacuum pump under the same pressure ratio, and the ratio of volume flow rate and efficiency decrease with the increasing of pressure ratio. The distribution of phase, velocity and pressure field are basically the same under the conditions of vacuum pump and compressor. The secondary flow in the exhaust zone and the transition zone of the compressor are obviously stronger than those in the vacuum pump condition. Under the same variation of pressure ratio, the pressure in the exhaust area of the compressor increases significantly. The frequency characteristics of pressure for the pump casing shows obviously partition characteristics along the circumferential direction. The main frequency characteristic of vacuum pump is the same as that of compressor. Under different pressure ratios condition, the pressure fluctuation amplitude of the inner wall of the pump housing in compressor condition is larger than that of the vacuum pump. With the increase of the pressure ratio, the pressure fluctuation amplitude for the compressor exhaust zone and transition zone increases obviously. References | Related Articles | Metrics

For existing gaze prediction models, the accuracy of gaze prediction is low due to the lack of feature details, single scale, and serious background information interference. This paper proposes a gaze prediction algorithm based on hypercomplex wavelet convolutional network. Firstly, aiming at the problem of loss of detailed features, the hypercomplex wavelet transform is used to extract the detailed features of the image in the frequency domain and fused with the spatial features extracted by the convolutional network. Then, through the atrous spatial pyramid pooling module, the feature maps obtained from different receptive fields are fused to effectively solve the problem of single feature scale. Finally, the proposed algorithm introduces a residual convolutional attention module, which combines spatial and channel attention mechanisms to effectively suppress the interference of background information and improve the accuracy of gaze prediction. On the SALICON datasets, CC, sAUC and SIM evaluation metrics, the performance of the proposed algorithm reaches 0.884 7, 0.769 3 and 0.778 0. On the CAT2000 datasets, the performance of the proposed algorithm is 0.735 5, 0.870 1, and 0.664 5. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a good ability to predict fixation points. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Investigation of highly-selective tri-passband three-dimensional    frequency selective surface YU Zheng-yong, LU Hua-li, HE Xiao-feng 2021, 47 (5):  99-105.  Abstract ( 167 )   PDF (3881KB) ( 343 )   Save A dual-polarized, highly-selective tri-passband three-dimensional frequency selective surface (3D FSS)is proposed. The unit cell of the proposed 3D FSS consists of four layers of square dielectric tubes, which provides one parallel plate waveguide (PPW) path and three square coaxial waveguide (SCW) paths. Owing to the electromagnetic coupling between two same short SCW resonant elements in each SCW path, original single resonant mode provided by the square slot on the end face of SCW path will split into even- and odd-resonant modes, introducing two transmission poles, and then forming a second-order passband. Thus, three SCW paths can realize three second-order passbands. In addition, the electromagnetic waves in different paths are combined out-of-phase,which can generate multiple transmission zeros and improve the frequency selectivity of this FSS.In order to explain the operating principle of the proposed 3D FSS, the distributions of electric-field vector at the frequencies of the transmission zeros/poles are investigated. The simulated results show that the proposed 3D FSS exhibits stable frequency responses to variations of incident angle from 0° to 60° under both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarizations. Meanwhile,this 3D FSS has small band ratios and relatively compact unit cell size. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Analysis of deep cutting dualistic structure slope stability considering residual strength of sandstone YE Shuai-hua, FAN Li-ming, SHI Yi-lei 2021, 47 (5):  106-114.  Abstract ( 114 )   PDF (4943KB) ( 269 )   Save A large number of dualistic structure slopes occurred during the construction of highways in western China, but the strength of the rock mass material in the stability analysis of such slopes is still unclear. Taking the slope engineering of Lanyong high way as background, the cause of the damage of adualistic structure slope composed of loess and sandstone in K35+000~150 of Lanyong high way was analyzed.Choosing a typical section of the slope engineering, FEM was usedto compare the stability and the destruction characteristics of the deep cutting slope under two different situations that the sandstone was respectively at peak strength and residual strength. Moreover, based on residual strength, the effects of prestressed anchors on the slope stability was studied. The results show that the result calculated by residual strength is more suitable forthe actual failure of the dualistic structure slope and that if the slope can be supported by prestressed anchors, the slope stability would be effectively improved to preventthe slope instability.The research results can provide references for the stability analysis of loess-sandstone dualistic-structure high slope in Gansu Province.

Cohesion-damage-friction constitutive model of the frozen soil-structure interface CHEN Xiao, HE Peng-fei, DONG Jian-hua, REN Xin, WU Xiao-lei 2021, 47 (5):  115-121.  Abstract ( 209 )   PDF (2507KB) ( 214 )   Save The constitutive model of the interface between frozen soil and structure is very important to the design, analysis and numerical simulation of engineering practice in cold regions. A one-dimensional constitutive model of the interface between frozen soil and structure was established by coupling the cohesive damage model and the friction model. Based on the meso-mechanical assumption, the mechanical response of cemented ice at the interface and the friction mobilization, the representative elementary area of the interface was divided into damaged part and non-damaged part. During the shearing of the interface, the non-damaged part of the representative elementary area was assumed to be elastic deformation. The friction effect was mobilized during the representative elementary area transform from the initial undamaged state to the fully damaged state. The damage evolution equation and the friction evolution process of the representative elementary area were established based on the basic kinematics hypotheses of the interface, and the constitutive relationship of the interface was established according to the homogenization method. The parameters in the model have clear physical meanings and are easy to obtain from the test data. The numerical results show that the model has a good fitting effect on the both strain softening curve and strain hardening curve of the interface, and the key parameters in the test curve can be reflected in the model.

Low-cycle fatigue test of Q345B steel frame beam-column connection weld LI Wan-run, LIU Yu-fei, DU Yong-feng 2021, 47 (5):  122-129.  Abstract ( 165 )   PDF (4607KB) ( 217 )   Save In order to study the low cycle fatigue of steel frame beam-column connections under different amplitude regimes, the low-cycle fatigue test of six full-scale all-welded beam-column connections were designed and finished, and the fatigue crack initiation and expansion of welds was studied.The influence of cyclic amplitude and loading history on the fatigue performance of the connections was analyzed, and the cumulative degree of fatigue damage during normal amplitude, variable amplitude and random load was compared. The results show that under the three amplitude regimes, the welding toe of the flange welding hole isprone to fatigue cracking, and the final fracture path is the oblique development of the welding holes weld toe crack, which merges with the edge weld of the flange weld to cause full-section fracture. It is disadvantageous for the fatigue performance of connections to directly experience large deformation with equal amplitude. The loading process from small deformation to large deformation can give full play to the energy dissipation capacity. The larger the amplitude of loading, the faster the cumulative damage rate of connections, and the earlier the fatigue damage occurs. References | Related Articles | Metrics
