High Al zinc-based alloys are widely used in industry for their good ambient temperature mechanical properties and damping capacity. With the rise of service temperature its damping property increases but mechanical property decreases greatly Here two ways-alloying and spray deposition technique were adopted to improve the service temperature limitation of the alloy ZA27 in an effort to develop a new functional material with high damping capacity and good elevated temperature mechanical property. The effects of addition of 5 wt pct of Si Qn the damping behaviour and elevated temperature creep resistance of alloy ZA27 were investigated. The damping capacity, as well as the relative dynamic modulus, was measured at frequency of 1,4 Hz over the 303 to 573 K. No peak phenomenon was observed for the specimens tested in the temperature range of interest. Experimental results indicated that the damping capacity of the deposited material was 2.8 times higher than that of the cast one at 305 K. The ball hardness values were used to evaluate the creep property and the creep activation energy of the deposited material is 3.9~5.7 kJ per mol higher than that of the as-cast one. The creep rate formuIation was also derived. Finally, the operative damping and creep mechanisms were discussed in the light of the data obtained from its characterization of microstructure, damping capacity and creep reslstance

The microstructural evolution during solidification and subsequent solid-state transformation of AISI 304 stainless steel is studied by directional solidification and quenching methods in this paper. The phase transformation sequence in the steel directionally solidified is that the precipitation of primary ferritic dendrites, ferrite-austenite eutectic reaction, and the direct formation of austenite occur in sequence during the directional solidification of the austenitic stainless steel. At the eutectic reaction stage, plenty of columnar and cellular eutectic colonies composed of the coupled growth of lamellar ferrite and austenite take place. During the course of subsequent solid-state transformation, austenite grows into ferrite gradually, resulting in the disappearing of eutectic colonies and thinning of primary ferritic dendrites, and dendrite cores of primary ferrite are retained as the final skeletal ferrite in the final microstructure.

The liquid-solid transitions of (Co2Si+CoSi) and (CoSi+CoSi2) eutectic alloys were realized in drop tube and the rapid eutectic growth mechanism of intermetallic compounds was examined. The experimental and calculated results indicate that with increasing Co content, the intermetallic compound prefers nucleating primarily. The eutectic microstructures experience the transitions of `lamellar-anomalous-divorced' eutectic with undercooling. In undercooled state, the growth of CoSi intermetallic compound always lags behind others, and no matter how large the undercooling is, this intermetallic compound grows under the solutal diffusion control. The calculated coupled zone demonstrates that (Co2Si+CoSi) eutectic can form within certain undercooling regime, when the composition is in the range from 23.6% to 25.4% Si. And the calculated coupled zone of (CoSi+CoSi2) covers a composition range from 40.8% to 43.8% Si.

The detailed laser surface remelting experiments of Cu-31.4 wt pct Mn and Cu-26.6 wt pct Mn alloys on a 5 kW CO2 laser were carried out to study the effects of processing parameters (scanning velocity, output power of laser) on the growth direction of microstructure in the molten pool and cellular spacing selection under the condition of ultra-high temperature gradient and rapid directional solidification. The experimental results show that the growth direction of microstructure is strongly affected by laser processing parameters. The ultra-high temperature gradient directional solidification can be realized on the surface of samples during laser surface remelting by controlling laser processing parameters, the temperature gradient and growth velocity can reach 106 K/m and 24.1 mm/s, respectively, and the solidification microstructure in the center of the molten pool grows along the laser beam scanning direction. There exists a distribution range of cellular spacings under the laser rapid solidification conditions, and the average spacing decreases with increasing of growth rate. The maximum, λmax, minimum, λmin, and average primary spacing, , as functions of growth rate, Vb, can be given by, λmax=12.54 , λmin=4.47 , =9.09 , respectively. The experimental results are compared with the current Hunt-Lu model for rapid cellular/dendritic growth, and a good agreement is found.

The Pd77.5Au6Si16.5 alloy was studied by drop-tube processing. Palladium solid-solution phase was found in smaller droplets (diameter D < 400 m), while in larger droplets, the intermetallic compound Pd3Si was observed. The difference in free energy between the undercooled liquid and the solid state, the activation energy for the formation of post-critical nuclei, the nucleation frequency and the crystal growth velocity, were calculated as functions of temperature for palladium solid solution and Pd3Si phases. These calculations led to time-temperature-transformation curves which were capable of describing the experimental findings on the kinetics of solidification of this alloy.

From the viewpoint of production engineering, microforming is considered as an effective process to fabricate various microparts. Several key problems in microforming processes were investigated. A new microforming apparatus with a high stiffness piezoelectric actuator as the punch driver was developed to produce microparts. To improve the forming abilities and locate the billets, a floating microdie was designed. The size effects of the billets and die cavities on the microforming abilities were studied with upsetting and coining tests, respectively. And the isothermal microforming process of microgears was performed with the developed microforming apparatus. Several analysis methods were used to evaluate the forming quality of the microparts.
