被引用回数:44 パーセンタイル:98.99(Multidisciplinary Sciences)耐火ハイエントロピー合金(RHEA)は、超高温用途への応用の可能性から注目されている。しかし、体心立方結晶をもつため面心立方HEAよりも脆く、さらに、主要なNi基超合金やFCC合金系の材料よりも著しく低いクリープ強度を示す。これらの欠点を克服し、RHEAを実用的な構造材料に発展させるためには、強度と延性を制御する要因の基礎的な理解を深める必要がある。本研究では、TiZrHfNbTaとVNbMoTaWという2つのモデルRHEAを調査し、前者は77Kまで塑性圧縮可能であるのに対し、後者は298K以下では圧縮不可能であることを示した。TiZrHfNbTaの六方最密充填(HCP)元素は、すべての構成元素がBCCであるVNbMoTaWと比較して、転位芯エネルギーを下げ、格子歪みを大きくし、せん断弾性率を下げることで、高い延性と相対的に高い降伏強度につながることがわかった。転位芯構造はVNbTaMoWではコンパクトで、TiZrHfNbTaでは拡張しており、2つのRHEAで異なる滑り面が活性化していることがわかった。これらは、いずれもHCP元素の濃度に起因していることが第一原理計算により明らかになった。この結果は、HCP元素とBCC元素の比率に関連した電子構造の変化を利用して、強度、延性、すべり挙動を制御し、より効率的な発電所や輸送のための次世代高温材料を開発できることを実証している。

被引用回数:117 パーセンタイル:99.80(Engineering, Mechanical)Face-centered cubic single-phase high-entropy alloys (HEAs) containing multi-principal transition metals have attracted significant attention, exhibiting an unprecedented combination of strength and ductility owing to their low stacking fault energy (SFE) and large misfit parameter that creates severe local lattice distortion. Increasing both strength and ductility further is challenging. In the present study, we demonstrate via meticulous experiments that the CoCrFeNi HEA with the addition of the substitutional metalloid Si can retain a single-phase FCC structure while its yield strength (up to 65%), ultimate strength (up to 34%), and ductility (up to 15%) are simultaneously increased, owing to a synthetical effect of the enhanced solid solution strengthening and a reduced SFE. The dislocation behaviors and plastic deformation mechanisms were tuned by the addition of Si, which improves the strain hardening and tensile ductility. The present study provides new strategies for enhancing HEA performance by targeted metalloid additions.

被引用回数:13 パーセンタイル:70.22(Energy & Fuels)To understanding the spatial heterogeneity of mineral and pore structure variations in fine-grained shale, microscale X-ray fluorescence (micro-XRF) mapping, (ultra-) small-angle X-ray scattering [(U)SAXS] and wide-angle X-ray scattering were applied for two samples from a piece of Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas. Thin section petrography and field emission-scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), total organic carbon, and pyrolysis were also utilized to investigate the potential spatial heterogeneity of pore types, mineral and organic matter compositions for both samples. Overall, the siliceous-carbonate mineral contents in these carbonate-rich Eagle Ford Shale vary between laminations at mm scales. By analyzing six selected sub-samples on each of two samples with X-ray scattering and XRD techniques, nm-sized pores are mainly interparticle ones in the higher calcite regions, where the porosity is also relatively lower, while the lower calcite regions consist of both interparticle and intraparticle pore types with higher porosity. Finally, the micro-XRF and (U)SAXS are combined to generate porosity distribution maps to provide more insights about its heterogeneity related to the laminations and fractures at our observational scales.

被引用回数:123 パーセンタイル:98.31(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Experimental studies of the collisions of heavy nuclei at relativistic energies have established the properties of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), a state of hot, dense nuclear matter in which quarks and gluons are not bound into hadrons. In this state, matter behaves as a nearly inviscid fluid that efficiently translates initial spatial anisotropies into correlated momentum anisotropies among the particles produced, creating a common velocity field pattern known as collective flow. In recent years, comparable momentum anisotropies have been measured in small-system proton-proton and proton-nucleus (p+A) collisions, despite expectations that the volume and lifetime of the medium produced would be too small to form a QGP. Here we report on the observation of elliptic and triangular flow patterns of charged particles produced in proton-gold (p+Au), deuteron-gold (d+Au) and helium-gold (
He+Au) collisions at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy
= 200 GeV. The unique combination of three distinct initial geometries and two flow patterns provides unprecedented model discrimination. Hydrodynamical models, which include the formation of a short-lived QGP droplet, provide the best simultaneous description of these measurements.
