“…To aid the interpretation of our experimental results, we have calculated the e-GeHa elastic cross sections by using the well documented CMS method (Dill andDehmer 1974, Kimura andSato 1991). A brief exposition of its approach will suffice.…”

Absolute vibrationally elastic cross sections for e-GeH4 collisions have been determined for electrons of 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 7.5, 10, 15, 20, 60 and 100 eV incidence energy over a scattering angular range of 10 degrees -130 degrees . The observed angular distributions correspond, at least qualitatively, to theoretical formulations using the continuum-multiple-scattering method, the parameter-free static-exchange-polarization approximation, and a multichannel Schwinger variational calculation. Vibrational excitation functions and the energy distribution of elastically scattered electrons reveal a shape resonance at about 2-2.5 eV. Calculations show that the resonance scattering state belongs to the t2 representation of the Td point group, which is also the representation of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of GeH4. Energy loss spectra recorded in the electronic threshold region of GeH4 reveal enhanced inelastic scattering at large angles in the loss range 7-9 eV characteristic of excitation to the lowest triplet state.

“…Reducing Al content in near-α or α+β alloys like Ti407 promotes twinning [2,3], which in turn improves formability and impact resistance as it increases the work hardening rate during deformation [4]. Moreover, reducing Al content improves ductility [5] and machinability of Ti alloys [6]. β-eutectoid elements like Si and Fe are also added to provide some solid solution strengthening.…”

Microstructure evolution and deformation texture during rolling of TIMETALⓇ 407

TIMETAL ® 407 (referred as Ti407 here afterwards) is a new titanium alloy primarily developed for combining high formability with improved strength compared to commercially pure titanium. In this study, the evolution of microstructure, spherodization behavior of α laths, macro and micro textures during rolling of Ti407 are examined. For this purpose, Ti407 with transformed β microstructure was rolled at 650 and 820 °C to 50 and 75% reduction ratios followed by recrystallization heat treatment at 820 °C. The material was characterized focusing on microstructure morphology and texture evolution. The material rolled at 650 °C displayed strong basal pole concentrations towards the normal direction (ND)/30° towards transverse direction (TD) together with a weak transverse component. When the material was rolled at higher temperature 820 °C, the texture only showed a weak transverse type texture. Complete spherodization of the α laths occurred only when the material was rolled to 75% reduction at 650 °C. At other rolling temperature and reduction ratios, the extent of spherodization per se was limited. Our results clearly show that activation of deformation twinning in the material rolled at 650 °C to 75% reduction played a key role in the break-up of α laths and significant texture change involving formation of strong 30 degree basal texture component. The spherodization behavior of α laths in Ti407 is compared with Ti-6Al-4V rolled to equivalent temperatures relative to the b-transus based on classical boundary splitting and termination migration mechanisms.

“…The MXRR model presents an I-shaped rod design made of a Grade 5 titanium, with aerospace specs. Titanium offers a better stiffness to mass ratio than steel, [12][13][14] which enabled a lower rod mass (125 g). The stock piston was used, but the titanium rod enables the use of a titanium pin with the same stiffness and lower mass (27 g).…”

Simulation of engine components enables early design verification and reduced development time while helping racing teams in getting new knowledge. This article presents a multidiscipline dynamic test bench and a benchmark of two different connecting rods for HONDA CRF250R. The test bench embeds mechanical and control system modeling and simulation including electric starters, ignition timing, power control as well as sensors and actuators enabling closed-loop systems. A non-linear finite element program that combines the traditional separate multi-body simulation and finite element modeling and simulation tasks captures all load cases and dynamic effects in one single run. Model reduction techniques are applied to optimize simulation speed and results accuracy. The virtual test bench captures dynamic engine effects and efficiently provides new knowledge about engine performance and integrity.
