In chemical liquid vapor deposition (cLVD) technique, carbon preform density is a crucial factor to control the microstructure of c/c-Zrc-Siccomposites, which also determines the ablation resistance. The effects of preform density on the microstructure and ablation behavior of cLVD-c/c-Zrc-Siccomposites were studied. Results demonstrated the composites prepared from the preform with a density of 0.91 g/cm(3) showed a dense microstructure and proper ceramiccontent. Under an oxyacetylene flame, the composites displayed an excellent ablation resistance. The good ablation resistance was ascribed to the proper preform density, which promoted the formation of uniform and continuous protective layer of ZrO2-SiO2.

Phenomenological constitutive models are always used in structural analysis due to its simplicity in modeling and implementation. However, these models are always fitted from limited experimental curves, leading to errors and insufficient confidence in analysis results. Previous constitutive model error quantification methods rely on a-posteriori experimental observations. In this paper, a priori error quantification method for extrapolation errors of constitutive models is established. Gaussian Process models are fitted with stress states as inputs and strains as outputs. Prediction variations of the GP model are used as the error indicator. The method naturally leads to zero error at known load cases and larger error at load cases away from existing experimental data. It can be integrated with FEM analysis easily and provide error visualization capabilities along with stress fields. Stress states at large error areas provide directions for further experiments and constitutive refinement. The method is demonstrated on the constitutive model and FEM analysis of a c/Sic frame and showed good validity.

The coating damage of Sic-coated carbon?carbon (c/c) composite is directly influenced on the anti-oxidation attack and ablation performances of carbon?carbon (c/c) composite substrate. It is unprecedentedly reported that infrared thermal-wave tomography (IR-TWT or TWT) approach with laser as external stimulation source is successfully employed for the evaluation of the Sic damage coated on the c/ccomposite substrate. The stimulation laser intensity is varied according to a chirp-pulsed chain, and employed to induce the chirp-pulsed radar thermal-wave signal. The thermal-wave signals of Sic-coated c/ccomposite dependence on coating thickness degradation and substrate material are deeply analyzed by using of one dimensional (1D) thermal-wave transfer analytical model. A temporal amplitude of thermal-wave signal as function of delay time is obtained by using of dual-orthogonal demodulation (DOD) algorithms, and it can be employed to represent thermal-wave transmission and to perform tomography. Experimental results confirm that TWT can be used to accurately and reliably assess the Siccoating damage characterization from the c/ccomposite substrate.

In a recent paper published in this journal it was presented an interesting study on the 2019 outburst of the 15Bootids and it was suggested the possibility that comet c/539W1 was the parent comet of this meteor shower. It was also deducted from the method employed that this parent comet could have had a first passage through perihelion around the year AD1260. In this paper, we review both assumptions and we propose the possibility that the previous perihelion passage of the parent comet of the 15-Bootids was observed and recorded as c/ 1245D1.

Laser ablation behaviors of c/Siccomposites were examined in a hypersonic wind tunnel. Parallel laser ablation tests under static air were also conducted, and the ablation behaviors of these two conditions were compared. Mass ablation rates were augmented by 4?9 times when subjected to the hypersonic airflow. Ablation morphologies were significantly different in the micro and macro scales, and the needle-like microstructure of carbon fibers under static air turned to be rough and tattered under the hypersonic airflow. The accelerated ablation rate and the peculiar ablation micro-morphologies were mainly attributed to the strong mechanical erosion induced by hypersonic airflow.

carbon fiber reinforced carbon and silicon carbide dual matrix composites (c/c-Sic) have been widely used in aerospace field thanks to their superior high temperature properties. However, the interfacial microstructure of the composites is still not thoroughly understood in details. In this study, we focus on the morphology of the reaction-formed Sic and the interfacial microstructure between carbon and Sic in the c/c-Siccomposites fabricated by liquid silicon infiltration performed at 1700 ?c. The fine microstructure of the composites was investigated systematically by using transmission electron microscopy. The results show that two main types of interface are formed in the composites: (i) the fine-grained Sic is formed adjacent to the pyrolyticcarbon, followed by a layer of coarse-grained Sic;and (ii) some extremely large Sic grains are formed directly on the pyrolyticcarbon, and different pyrolyticcarbon coatings can be connected by these large Sic grains. Additionally, some subgrains with grain size of a few tens of nanometers or even smaller can be found near the pyrolyticcarbon or carbon fibers. The formation mechanism of the Sic/carbon interface is also discussed based on the fine microstructure observed.

Hierarchical porous materials receive extensive attention due to their excellent electrode kinetic performance. Herein, a facile strategy is presented to fabricate hierarchical porous supercapacitor materials using Nacl-assisted MOFs gel as a structure-directing template. By controlling the additive amount of Nacl, hierarchical porous carbon-encapsulated Fe3c with tailored pore size distribution has been obtained with a high specificcapacity of 184.1 mAh g- 1 (602.3F g-1) at a current density of 1 A g-1. The analysis of kinetics and impedance indicates that the tailored porosity can provide broad ion diffusion pathway and low charge-transfer resistance. Meanwhile, seawater was used instead of Nacl for preparing hierarchical porous carbon with good capacitive performance. When evaluated their practical applications, the assembled all-solid-state hybrid supercapacitor delivers a high energy density of 30.6 W h kg-1 at a power density of 600 W kg-1, and even maintains an energy density of 15.5 W h kg-1 at a power density of 12000 W kg-1 with 86.5% capacity retention after 10,000 cycles. This work is anticipated to open up a new route of using MOFs gel and water-soluble salts for designing hierarchical porous electrodes materials, which pave the way for advanced utilization of MOFs gel and seawater.

Microstructural evolution of silicon-modified aluminide coating during 10,000 h aging at 650 degrees c was systematically investigated. Upon aging, the coating was gradually transformed from a multilayered structure to a double-layer structure, with the matrixes of Al-Fe-Si compounds and beta-(Fe, Ni)Al in the two layers, respectively. An internal oxide layer formed below the coating, while the thickness of interdiffusion zone (IDZ) increased as the inward diffusion of Al. Precipitate evolutions in both the coating and the IDZ were discussed, which clarifies the microstructural origin of long-term stability of the coating. The phase evolution of Al-Si coating in prolonged aging was further discussed.

Herein, pulsed Dc sputtering of the AlN film on top of the Si (111) substrate is reported on. First, major articles on the reactive sputtering of AlN film on top of Si (111) substrate that were published in the past 30 years are tabulated. Then, a sputtering recipe to produce a consistent and high-crystal-quality (as measured by the full width at half maximum [FWHM] of rocking curve) AlN film across varying substrate temperatures (250-450 degrees c) and sputtering powers (1200-2400 W) is proposed. In addition, the influence of both parameters to in-plane stress is demonstrated, in agreement with similar trends that have been reported in the literature for AlN films on other substrates. The best sample is produced at a substrate temperature of 350 degrees c and sputtering power of 1800 W, resulting in FWHM of rocking curve of 1.84 degrees, surface roughness of 1 nm, and in-plane stress of +300 MPa. The recipe herein is beneficial for integration of AlN thin film in complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor and micro-electromechanical system processes.

Sustainable fuel-range hydrocarbons can be produced via the catalytic decarboxylation of biomass-derived carboxylic acids without the need for hydrogen addition. In this present study, 5 wt% platinum on carbon (Pt/c) has been found to be an effective catalyst for hydrothermally decarboxylating butyric acid in order to produce mainly propane and carbon dioxide. However, optimisation of the reaction conditions is required to minimise secondary reactions and increase hydrocarbon selectivity towards propane. To do this, reactions using the catalyst with varying parameters such as reaction temperatures, residence times, feedstock loading and bulk catalyst loading were carried out in a batch reactor. The highest yield of propane obtained was 47 wt% (close to the theoretical decarboxylation yield of 50 wt% on butyric acid basis), corresponding to a 96% hydrocarbon selectivity towards propane. The results showed that the optimum parameters to produce the highest yield of propane, from the range investigated, were 0.5 g butyric acid (0.57 M aqueous solution), 1.0 g Pt/c (50 mg Pt content) at 300 degrees c for 1 h. The reusability of the catalyst was also investigated, which showed little or no loss of catalytic activity after four cycles. This work has shown that Pt/c is a suitable and potentially hydrothermally stable heterogeneous catalyst for making biopropane, a major component of bioLPG, from aqueous butyric acid solutions, which can be sourced from bio-derived feedstocks via acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation.
