Based on the test results obtained from the single-step test and the incremental-step test at room temperature and 240℃, a probabilistic assessment of temperature effects on the cyclic stress-strum response and the fatigue life of 1Cr18Ni9Ti steel weld metal is performed. In orber to assess the temperature effect on cyclic stress amplitude where there is a scatter of the material cyclic constitution, a probabilistic assessment approach on the basis of probabilistic modified Ramberg-Osgood relations is introduced.The investigation shows that the cyclic stress amplitude and the scatter of cyclic stress amplitude data are decreased at 240℃. Similarly, from the consideration of the fatigue life scatter a probabilistic assessment of temperature effect on the fatigue life is suggested on the basis of probabilistic Langer S-N relations. The investigation shows that the crack initiation life is increased and the scatter of crack initiation life data is decreased at 240℃.

The effect of nonmagnetic Y partial substitution at the Dy site in Dy(1-x)Y(x)MnO(3) up to x=0.2 on magnetism, specific heat, and ferroelectricity is investigated, which resulted in a preliminary multiferroic phase diagram. It is revealed that the Y partial substitution suppresses the Dy-spin ordering point (T(Dy)) and ferroelectric ordering point (T(FE)) but enhances the Mn-spin ordering point (T(N)). The interaction between the spins of Dy and Mn is remarkably affected by Y substitution. The measured electrical polarization depends on the Y substitution in a complex way because the ferroelectricity is sensitive to the interaction between the spins of Dy and Mn.

The dynamic aspects of linear elastic fracture mechanics applied to dielectric breakdown are studied. In the same direction as the fracture mechanics analogue for dielectric breakdown described previously by some researchers, this paper develops the intrinsic, rate-dependent bond breakdown micromechanism to account for the dynamic process of dielectric breakdown. The formulae of conducting microcrack growth rate and lifetime prediction are derived and applied to the experimental data of SiO2 films.

First principle calculations using supercell approach and coherent potential approximation (CPA) are performed to investigate the electronic and magnetic structures of Fe(3-x)Mn(x)Si and Fe(3-y)MnSi(y) alloys, where x, y=0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, and 2.25. Using supercell calculations we obtained a metallic behavior for x=0, 0.25, and 0.5 in Fe(3-x)Mn(x)Si alloys with spin polarizations of 24%, 39%, and 93%, respectively. The behavior starts to be half-metallic at x=0.75 with a small direct band gap that increases for higher concentrations of Mn. Among the half-metallic systems, only those of L2(1) structure at x=1 and 2 possess indirect band gaps along Gamma-X symmetry line. The change of Si concentration in Fe(3-y)MnSi(y) structures retrieve the metallic behavior for all concentrations except y=1.25 that shows a half-metallic behavior with a direct band gap of 0.27 eV. We obtained a good agreement between supercell and CPA calculations for the values of the magnetic moment and the trends of the formation energies, which reveals the validity of the supercell approach in predicting the magnetic structure and the energetics of doped Heusler alloys.

The glass-forming ability (GFA) of Nd(70-x)Fe(20)Al(10)Y(x) and Nd(60-x)Fe30Al(10)Y(x) (0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to15) alloys produced by Cu mold casting was investigated. Except Y = 5 at. pct, bulk amorphous Nd(70-x)Fe(20)Al(10)Y(x) alloys up to 2 mm in diameter were obtained. The GFA for Nd(60-x)Fe(30)Al(10)Y(x) alloys, however, was found to decrease with increase of Y due to the increasing compositional deviation from the original eutectic point of Nd(60)Fe(30)Al(10) alloy. The Nd(60)Fe(20)Al(10)Y(10) and Nd(60)Fe(30)Al(10) alloy exhibit the largest GFA and can be cast into bulk amorphous cylindrical specimens of 3 mm in diameter. The melting temperature or/and the reduced crystallization temperature is closely related to the GFA of Y-containing alloys. The bulk amorphous cylinder for the Nd(55)Fe(20)Al(10)Y(15) alloy shows a distinct glass transition temperature and a wide supercooled liquid region before crystallization. The crystallization temperature, T(g), and the supercooled liquid region, DeltaT(x), are 776 K and 58 K, respectively, The GFA and thermal stability of the Nd-Fe-Al-Y alloys were discussed.

The magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect of Tb(1-x)Y(x)CoC(2) (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) compounds have been investigated systematically. All the compounds undergo second-order transitions from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic states without thermal and magnetic hysteresis. With increasing Y content from 0 to 0.4, the Curie temperatures decrease nearly linearly from 28 to 18 K. The nature of the second-order phase transitions can be confirmed by Arrott plots. For Tb(0.6)Y(0.4)CoC(2) compound, the maximum value of the magnetic entropy change -Delta S(M) at 20 K is 9.35 J kg(-1) K(-1) for an external field change of 5T (5.14 J kg(-1) K(-1) for 2T). The large reversible magnetic entropy change makes Tb(0.6)Y(04)CoC(2) compound an attractive candidate for the application at hydrogen liquefaction temperature. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

It has been reported both experimentally and theoretically that the Ba(2+)-doping at the A-site of quantum paraelectric SrTiO(3) suppresses the quantum fluctuations by activating the ferroelectric mode, while the Ru(4+)-doping at the B-site plays the opposite role. For a double-impurity doped SrTiO(3), i. e., Sr(1-x)Ba(x)Ti(1-y)Ru(y)O(3), where the two types of opposite effects compete with each other, we propose an improved transverse-field Ising model in order to investigate the effect of the double-impurity doping on the quantum phase transitions and critical behaviors. The calculated quantum behavior is quite well consistent with experimental measurements. A linear relationship between the quantum critical doping concentrations for Ba(2+) and Ru(4+) is predicted, subsequently validated qualitatively by an anharmonic oscillator model.

We report the electrical, thermal, magnetic, and thermoelectric properties of Y-doped Ca(3)Co(4)O(9) from 300 down to 5 K. The results indicate that with Y doping, the increase of resistivity originates from the decreases of carrier concentration and mobility, while the increase of Seebeck coefficient is caused by the reduction of carrier concentration together with the enhanced electronic correlation. Point-defect scattering, is the dominant thermal transport mechanism in this system. Due to the considerable difference in mass between Y(3+) and Ca(2+), thermal conductivity is observably suppressed by doping. The substitution of Y also disturbs the interlayer ferrimagnetic coupling. The ground state of this System converts front ferrimagnetism to paramagnetism gradually. The alteration of transport properties of Ca(3-x)Y(x)Co(4)O(9) reveals two Crossovers: the transition from Fermi-liquid-like metal to thermally activated semiconductor occuring at x approximate to 0.25, and the transition from thermally activated semiconductor to two-dimensional variable range hopping semiconductor occurring at x approximate to 0.5. The optimal thermoelectric response In Ca(3-x)Y(x)Co(4)O(9) is found to exist only at the critical state after which the doping-induced metal-insulator transition takes place. Oil the basis of these experimental results, a possible phase diagram for Ca(3-x)Y(x)Co(4)O(9) is proposed.
