Microstructural Variation and a Physical Mechanism Model for a Ti-55511 Alloy during Double-Stage Hot Deformation with Stepped Strain Rates in the β Region.

The microstructural variation and high-temperature flow features of a Ti-55511 alloy in the β region are studied by utilizing double-stage compression with a stepped strain rate. The results demonstrate that the stresses in the latter stage of hot compression markedly reduce as the strain at the previous stage or the strain rate at the previous/latter stage drops. Moreover, the annihilation/interaction of substructures is promoted, and the distinct refinement of the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) in the β grain can be found.

Note: A valve-type piezoelectric reciprocating pump with secondary resonant vibrator.

A valve-type piezoelectric diaphragm pump using secondary resonant vibrator is introduced in this paper. The secondary resonant vibrator, which is mainly composed of a first vibrator and a second vibrator, is used to coordinate the frequency incompatibility between piezoelectric elements and check valves. The intermittent vibration of the first vibrator excites the resonant vibration of the second vibrator.
