The nanostructural evolution and phase transformation of the films of a Zn-Al based alloy (Zn¬68Al¬10Cu¬22 in wt pct) have been studied by using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Nanostructural thin films of the Zn-Al based alloy were produced by using an electron beam deposition technique. It was found that a nanocrystalline phase ηn' had a strong preferred crystal orientation at (0002) crystal planes in the as-deposited films. During ageing at 220℃, the decomposition of nanophase ηn' started with clustering to form Z-zones, and transitional phase, which was accompanied by an eutectoid decomposition of the ηn' phase: ηn' →βeut'+T'. Decomposition, such as clustering and the formation of the Z-zones, and the transitional phase etc. were observed in the nanophaseβeut'. The formation and the decomposition of the transitional phase of micrometers in size were involved in the decomposition of the main nanophase ηn'. The mechanism of the Z-zones formation and the stability of nanophases were discussed.

Transport in S(2) molecules sandwiched between Au electrodes is investigated with a combination of density functional theory and the non-equilibrium Green's function method. We consider four different configurations and find that their conductances are related to the details of the bonding geometry. When S(2) connects to pyramidal-shaped electrodes at the top site, the transmission is governed by a resonance and is strongly affected by the bias. In contrast, the transport of the remaining three configurations is through several closely spaced broad molecular orbitals, and the transmission coefficient is almost flat around the Fermi level.

Young's equation is discussed on a thermodynamic basis. The result shows that the equation is a thermodynamic equilibrium of the wetting system rather than a force balance. The equilibrium satisfies the general equilibrium condition, that is, Gibbs free energy should be minimum when the wetting equilibrium is reached. The validity of Young's equation is only limited to some special cases, namely if the droplet shape is an exact sphere sector. It implies that Young's equation can only be used in the case without the action of gravity. If the curve of the liquid surface changes, the term of cos theta in Young's equation should be replaced by another functional form of the contact angle theta. In the discussion, the author suggests that, in the case of a solid, the surface energy should be considered rather than the surface tension, and the concept of a solid surface tension should be reconsidered based on the difference between a liquid surface and a solid surface.

Numerical simulation of casting's mold filling process is the main and the most important aspect of the foundry CAE technology. But it is time-consuming; it may take dozens of hours or several days. While with the development of computer hardware, numerical simulation of casting's mold filling process has made rapid progress. The simulation results, therefore, have become more and more practical. This study tries to find some clues of the computational time of mold filling process. Firstly, this paper introduces mathematic model and the basic route of numerical simulation of casting's mold filling process. Then the computational time of mold filling process has been carefully studied, and some new and useful results have been gained from the study of the computational time. Finally, this paper has given some real applications of numerical simulation of casting's mold filling process.
