The Relationship

ABSTRACTThe anomalous increase in the yield strength of single crystals of Ni3AI(1%Ta) as a function of temperature has been correlated with the post-deformation substructure using weak beam TEM techniques. At low temperatures (77K), there is evidence for abundant cross-slip between (111) and (111). With increasing temperature, this conventional cross-slip process is gradually replaced by the formation of KW locks--straight screw segments which have crossslipped and completely dissociated on (010). This change in the mode of cross slip corresponds with the onset of the yield strength anomaly. At still higher temperatures (544K and 715K), the KW locks become mobile and bow out on (010). The density of dislocations on the cube plane also increases sharply at higher temperatures, even though deformation occurs principally by glide on the primary (111) based on slip trace analysis. These observations are inconsistent with the widely accepted cross slip pinning model and suggest that deformation occurs primarily by the motion of the non-screw components. A dislocation model is introduced which attempts to account for the observed dislocation configurations while remaining consistent with the yield strength and work hardening behavior of these alloys.

The Ni3Al intermetallic compound of the ordered L12 structure with various alloying elements (such as Ta or Ti) reinforces most of the industrial superalloys which are designed for high temperature applications. Therefore, the understanding of its mechanical properties is of primary importance. The yield strength, measured in constant strain rate tests, exhibits an anomalous behaviour as a function of temperature: it increases up to a peak temperature above which it finally decreases. The anomalous increase has been extensively studied during the last 30 years, including weak-beam and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations and computer simulations. Numerous models have been proposed to explain this anomalous variation in which the structure of the dislocation core plays a fundamental role. A review of core effects on the plasticity of ordered alloys was given by Vitek (1985). In the present investigation, the Ni3(Al,l%Ta) phase was deformed at temperatures above the yield strength peak and the detailed core configurations of dislocations have been analyzed using weak-beam and high resolution TEM techniques.

ABSTRACTB2-type CoTi single crystals which exhibit the yield strength anomaly were deformed at various temperatures and on various compression axis in order to investigate the deformation microstructures. The morphological feature and Burgers vectors of the activated dislocations were investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy. At a low temperature of 300 K, relatively straight dislocations with the <001>-type Burgers vector were observed. They consisted of the mixed components of edge and screw, and strongly tended to form the dipoles. At a temperature of 773 K where the yield stress increases with increasing temperature, the screw components of dislocations with a <001>-type Burgers vector were dominant and showed peculiar morphology revealing the pinning or cross slip. However, the examination using the weak-beam method could not show the evidence of any dissociation. At a high temperature of 973 K above the peak temperature, the Burgers vectors of activated dislocations were determined to be a <001>- type for compressive orientation axes close to [111] and [011] whereas a <110>-type for orientation axis close to [001]. These dislocation microstructures were discussed in correlation with the yield strength anomaly observed in these intermetallics.

Mechanisms Of Deformation

ABSTRACTThe Ni3Ge-Fe3Ge model system provides us with a unique opportunity to characterize the mechanisms of deformation in both anomalous and normal L12 intermetallic alloys. The elastic moduli of alloys in this system have been measured and used as benchmarks for first principles calculations. At 77K, increasing the Fe content has been found to result in a dramatic increase in flow stress. The Ni-rich alloys exhibit a yield strength anomaly, but as Ni is replaced by Fe, the anomalous temperature dependence gradually disappears, and no yield strength anomaly is observed for alloys with more than 25 at% Fe. At low temperatures and Fe contents, the deformation microstructure has been found to be dominated by Kear-Wilsdorf locking; but a transition from octahedral glide and Kear-Wilsdorf locking to cube glide is observed as either Fe content or temperature is increased. This transition is related to changes that occur in the core structures of dissociated superdislocations and planar fault energies measured through computer simulations of weak-beam TEM images.

The Relationship

El Niño influences the global climate through teleconnections that are not constant in space and time. In order to study and visualize the spatiotemporal patterns of the El Niño teleconnections, a new method inspired by the concept of attribute trajectories is proposed. The coordinates of the trajectories are the normalized anomalies of the relevant meteorological variables in El Niño. The data structures called flocks are extracted from the trajectories to indicate the regions that are subject to the same type of El Niño teleconnection for a certain period. It is then shown how these structures can be used to get a detailed, spatiotemporal picture of the dynamics of the El Niño teleconnections. The comparison between the flocks of the same temporal scale reveals the general dynamics of the teleconnection, while the analysis among the flocks of different temporal scales indicates the relationship between the coverage and their duration. As an illustration of this method, the spatiotemporal patterns of the anomalous temperature increase caused by El Niño are presented and discussed at the monthly and seasonal scales. This study demonstrates the capability of the proposed method in analyzing and visualizing the spatiotemporal patterns of the teleconnections.

Tomato-associated Salmonella outbreaks have recently become a significant food safety concern. Temperature abuse of cut tomatoes may have played a role in some of these outbreaks. The purpose of this study was to develop a mathematical model to describe the growth of Salmonella on cut tomatoes at various temperatures. Four Salmonella serotypes (Typhimurium, Newport, Javiana, and Braenderup) obtained from previous tomato-linked cases of salmonellosis were used in this study. These four serotypes were cultured separately, combined into a cocktail, and inoculated onto whole red round tomatoes and allowed to dry overnight. The tomatoes were then cut into pieces and incubated at a predetermined range of temperatures (10, 12.5, 15, 17.5, 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5, 30, and 35°C). Salmonella concentration was measured at specified time intervals to determine the growth curve for Salmonella on cut tomatoes at each temperature. The growth rates were calculated using DMFit and used to build a mathematical model to illustrate the relationship between the growth rates of Salmonella on tomatoes and incubation temperatures from 10 to 35°C. The resulting model compared favorably with a Salmonella growth model for raw poultry developed by our laboratory. The Pathogen Modeling Program underpredicted growth at low temperatures and overpredicted growth at high temperatures. ComBase predicted consistently slower growth rates than were observed in tomatoes but showed parallel increases in growth rate with increasing temperature.

The Relationship

The capacity of coal to adsorb methane is greatly affected by temperature and, in recent years, temperature-dependent adsorption has been studied by many researchers. Even so, comprehensive conclusions have not been reached and conflicting experimental results are common. This paper reviews the current state of research regarding the temperature-dependent adsorption of methane in coal and catalogs the conclusions from experiments conducted on that subject by 28 researchers, as published between 1995 and 2017. Probability theory and statistics are used to show that the conclusion generally accepted by most researchers is that the amount of methane adsorbed by coal decreases with increasing temperature. It is highly likely that the Langmuir volume decreases as the temperature rises, and it is also probable that the Langmuir pressure increases at higher temperatures. Equations are presented that express the relationships between methane adsorption, Langmuir volume, Langmuir pressure, and temperature. Future research should be directed toward determining the relationship between Langmuir pressure and temperature. The results of the study presented herein provide a theoretical basis for predicting the gas content in coal seams and improving the efficiency of coalbed methane development.

Strength And Ductility

Since writing on this subject two years ago [1], a number of developments have occurred, particularly in relation to the mechanical properties of the L12 nickel aluminide Ni3Al. Some elucidate the nature of the yield strength and the extraordinarily beneficial effect of boron on low-temperature ductility. Some others expose, at least in part, the nature of the marked reduction in ductility at elevated temperatures. Another considers the mechanisms dominating creep deformation. Also during this period, contradictions have appeared: the relationship between the yield strength and the grain size, d, at room temperature has been contested, and opposing views of grain refinement on ductility have been reported.This paper reviews these developments. Although broadly directed at intermetallic compounds, the discussion is specific to Ni3Al. The hope is that the knowledge and understanding gained about this compound will benefit the class as a whole.

The effect of elastic strain rates ranging from 10−14 to 10 sec−1 and temperatures ranging from 200 K (−100 F) to 590 K (600 F) on the yield strength of several steels is reported. The steels utilized are a 1018 mild steel, 4340 steel, H-11 tool steel, and 300 grade maraging steel. The results are interpreted in terms of the Cottrell-Bilby yielding model based on release of dislocations from locking carbon atmospheres. The results for all of the materials except the maraging steel are consistent with this model if it is modified to account for relocking of dislocations by migration of carbon atoms. The maraging steel shows a constant strain rate sensitivity at a constant temperature, over the range of strain rates investigated. This rate sensitivity decreases with increasing temperature and at 590 K (600 F) a decreasing strength with increasing strain rate is found. This is attributed to stress aging effects.

The Relationship

Based on the 1965–2017 climate data of 18 meteorological stations in the Songliao Plain maize belt, the Coupled Model Intercomparision Project (CMIP5) data, and the 1998–2017 maize yield data, the drought change characteristics in the study area were analyzed by using the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) and the Mann–Kendall mutation test; furthermore, the relationship between meteorological factors, drought index, and maize climate yield was determined. Finally, the maize climate yields under 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C global warming scenarios were predicted. The results revealed that: (1) from 1965 to 2017, the study area experienced increasing temperature, decreasing precipitation, and intensifying drought trends; (2) the yield of the study area showed a downward trend from 1998 to 2017. Furthermore, the climate yield was negatively correlated with temperature, positively correlated with precipitation, and positively correlated with SPEI-1 and SPEI-3; and (3) under the 1.5 °C and the 2.0 °C global warming scenarios, the temperature and the precipitation increased in the maize growing season. Furthermore, under the studied global warming scenarios, the yield changes predicted by multiple regression were −7.7% and −15.9%, respectively, and the yield changes predicted by one-variable regression were −12.2% and −21.8%, respectively.
