Numerical Simulation Study of Multi-Field Coupling for Laser Cladding of Shaft Parts.

Since shaft parts operate under harsh environments for a long time, many critical parts suffer from corrosion, wear and other problems, leading to part failure and inability to continue in service. It is imperative to repair failed parts and increase their service life. An orthogonal experimental scheme is designed to numerically simulate the process of laser cladding of Inconel 718 alloy powder on 4140 alloy structural steel based on the ANSYS simulation platform, derive the relationship equation of cladding layer thickness according to the heat balance principle, establish a finite element model, couple three modules of temperature field, stress field and fluid field, and analyze different modules to realize the monitoring of different processes of laser cladding.

Design and Simulation of a Magnetization Drive Coil Based on the Helmholtz Principle and an Experimental Study.

In order to realize the magnetization of hydrogel mixed with NdFeB powder, a magnetization drive coil based on a Helmholtz coil is designed in this paper. The 3D model of the magnetic field system is drawn by the Maxwell software 3D module, and the influence of different factors on the magnetic induction intensity is analyzed to obtain the optimized structure of the magnetization drive coil; then, the central magnetic induction intensity and magnetic induction line distribution density of the magnetization drive coil and Helmholtz coil are compared to verify the reliability of the structure optimization. The results show that the central magnetic induction intensity is the highest when the distance between the auxiliary coils is 70 mm, the central magnetic induction intensity of the magnetized drive coil is significantly higher than that of the Helmholtz coil when the number of turns is the same, and the central magnetic induction intensity of the optimized magnetized drive coil can reach 1.

Monolayer Nickel Cobalt Hydroxyl Carbonate for High Performance All-Solid-State Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

The emergence of atomically thick nanolayer materials, which feature a short ion diffusion channel and provide more exposed atoms in the electrochemical reactions, offers a promising occasion to optimize the performance of supercapacitors on the atomic level. In this work, a novel monolayer Ni-Co hydroxyl carbonate with an average thickness of 1.07 nm is synthesized via an ordinary one-pot hydrothermal route for the first time.

Construction of a novel hierarchical structured NH₄-Co-Ni phosphate toward an ultrastable aqueous hybrid capacitor.

Aqueous hybrid capacitors (HCs) suffer from sacrificed power density and long cycle life due to the insufficient electric conductivity and poor chemical stability of the battery-type electrode material. Herein, we report a novel NH4-Co-Ni phosphate with a stable hierarchical structure combining ultrathin nanopieces and single crystal microplatelets in one system, which allows for a synergistic integration of two microstructures with different length scales and different energy storage mechanisms. The microplatelets with a stable single crystal structure store charge through the intercalation of hydroxyl ions, while the ultrathin nanopieces store charge through surface redox reaction providing enhanced specific capacitance.

Nickel Cobalt Hydroxide @Reduced Graphene Oxide Hybrid Nanolayers for High Performance Asymmetric Supercapacitors with Remarkable Cycling Stability.

Nanolayered structures present significantly enhanced electrochemical performance by facilitating the surface-dependent electrochemical reaction processes for supercapacitors, which, however, causes capacitance fade upon cycling due to their poor chemical stability. In this work, we report a simple and effective approach to develop a stable, high performance electrode material by integrating 2D transition metal hydroxide and reduced graphene oxide sheets at nanometer scale. Specifically, a hybrid nanolayer of Ni-Co hydroxide @reduced graphene oxide (Ni,Co-OH/rGO) with an average thickness of 1.
