In this study,the mechanical behavior of crystal group of hexagonal close-packed(hcp;αphase)and body-centered cubic(bcc;βphase)during tensile loading was investigated to elucidate the mechanism from elastic to plastic deformation transition of the rolled LZ91 Mg alloy using transmission-X-ray diffraction(transmission-XRD)measurement,transmission electron microscopy(TEM),scanning transmission electron microscopy(STEM),energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS).The approximate proof stress of the LZ91 Mg alloy sample was found that the lattice strain retained the expanded state from 0.6%nominal strain,and the transmission-XRD measurement characterized the crystalline behavior during the transition by the integrated intensity of crystal group hcp(100).The lattice strain of bcc(110)decreased from the 0.6%nominal strain due to dislocation activity,which occurred nearβ/βgrain *** addition,we performed the analyses of electron energy loss spectroscopy(EELS)modes,the Li-K peak disappeared from the segregated Li regions of 10–60 nm nearβ/βgrain boundary at the nominal strain of 0.8%.Understanding this mechanical behavior during the elastic to plastic deformation transition by transmission-XRD is crucial for the development of Mg-Li alloys.

The present investigation aims to determine the technical and economic potentials of electricity generation from different types of biomasses in the state of Minas Gerais, using different electricity generation technologies, supported by different thermochemical combustion and gasification routes. The five most available biomasses in the state of Minas Gerais were selected: corn, soybeans, coffee, eucalyptus and sugar cane, whose crops produce residues that can be used for electricity generation. Considering the technical, logistical and economic data of the selected biomasses, the research sought to define the most viable types of residual biomass for electricity generation, in different locations within the state, through a multi-criteria decision-making approach (MCDM). A bibliographic review of the maturity of different types of electricity generation technologies from biomass was carried out, based on available information, schemes and operational parameters of real installations. The level of technological readiness of the different alternatives was also evaluated through a survey with specialists in the sector, concluding that the technologies with the highest level of readiness are the conventional Rankine cycle, the organic Rankine cycle and the use of gasifiers integrated with internal combustion. These three technological alternatives were adopted as options for the generation of electricity from biomass, obtaining a scale of the types of biomasses available, through a multicriteria methodology. The determination of the criteria weight was carried out from an integration with the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). In conjunction with a GIS-MCDA approach, different micro-regions were evaluated considering their respective biomass resources, allowing the estimation of costs and performance of different electricity production technologies. A logical algorithm was developed for the selection of alternatives for energy production from biomass, giving priority
