With higher creep strength and heat resistance, 34CrNi3Mo has been widely used in the production of engine rotors, steam turbine impellers, and turbine blades. To investigate the hot deformation behaviors of 34CrNi3Mo steel, hot compressive tests were conducted on a Gleeble-3500 thermomechanical simulator, under the temperature range of 1073 K-1373 K and strain rate ranges of 0.1 s-20 s.

Gold nanoparticle-assembled capsules (GNACs) with controllable size and tunable morphology were fabricated through a simple two-step mixing procedure. Cationic polyelectrolyte was first induced to self-assemble into spherical aggregates in the presence of multivalent anions. Then, the aggregates served as an effective template for the self-assembly of gold nanoparticles to form size-controllable capsules.

In the coastal area of Guangdong, slit-less spectra for first return strokes of lightning between the cloud and ground were obtained. After spectrum analysis and line identification were done by using multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method, parameters like wavelengths, oscillator strengths, transition probabilities, and excitation energies were calculated. According to the relative intensities of lines and transition parameters, temperatures for individual lightning strokes and at different heights of the discharge channel were calculated by using multiple-line method.
