Microstructure, thermal stability and mechanical properties of the novel (W1-xAlx)C-Co (x=0.2, 0.33, 0.4, 0.5) cemented carbide

Bulk novel cemented carbides (W1-xAlx)C-10.1 vol% Co (x = 0.2, 0.33, 0.4, 0.5) are prepared by mechanical alloying and hot-pressing sintering. Hot-pressing (HP) is used to fabricate the bulk bodies of the hard alloys. The novel cemented carbides have good mechanical properties compared with WC-Co. The density and operating cost of the novel material is much lower than a WC-Co system. The material is easy to process and the processing leads to nano-scaled, rounded, particles in the bulk material. The hardness of (W1-xAlx)C-10.1 vol% Co (x = 0.2, 0.33, 0.4, 0.5) hard material is 20.37, 21.16, 21.59 and 22.16 GPa, and the bending strength is 1257, 1238, 1211 and 1293 MPa, with the aluminum content varying from 20% to 50%. The relationship between the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the novel hard alloy is also discussed.

2.0 GPa 块状斜长角闪岩部分熔融——时间和温度的影响

利用多顶砧压机,以青藏高原北喜马拉雅构造带的天然斜长角闪岩为样品,在2.0GPa,800~1000℃条件下进行了两个系列的块状样品脱水部分熔融实验:(1)保持压力p=2.0GPa,加热时间t=12h不变,改变温度(800℃~1000℃)的实验;(2)保持压力p=2.0GPa,温度T=850℃不变,改变加热时间(12~200h)的实验.结果表明,2.0GPa,加热12h的条件下,随温度升高,斜长角闪岩中依次生成了石榴石、熔体和单斜辉石,熔体的成分呈英云闪长质-花岗闪长质-英云闪长质的演化趋势.2.0GPa,850℃条件下,随加热时间增加,斜长角闪岩中依次生成了石榴石、熔体和单斜辉石,熔体的成分由英云闪长质向花岗闪长质演化.当块状岩石样品中熔体体积百分比的含量达到5%时,熔体已经相互连通.温度大于850℃的条件下生成的熔体其粘度在104Pas量级,已经满足了在地质时间尺度上熔体分凝形成岩浆的粘度要求.因此,可以认为在增厚地壳的下部,斜长角闪岩的脱水部分熔融可以形成英云闪长质-花岗质岩浆.

Australia Telescope Compact Array 1.2cm Observations of the Massive Star Forming Region G305.2+0.2

We report on Australia Telescope Compact Array observations of the massive star-forming region G305.2+0.2 at 1.2 cm. We detected emission in five molecules towards G305A, confirming its hot core nature. We determined a rotational temperature of 26 K for methanol. A non-local thermodynamic equilibrium excitation calculation suggests a kinematic temperature of the order of 200 K. A time-dependent chemical model is also used to model the gas-phase chemistry of the hot core associated with G305A. A comparison with the observations suggest an age of between 2 × 104 and 1.5 × 105 yr. We also report on a feature to the south-east of G305A which may show weak Class I methanol maser emission in the line at 24.933 GHz. The more evolved source G305B does not show emission in any of the line tracers, but strong Class I methanol maser emission at 24.933 GHz is found 3 arcsec to the east. Radio continuum emission at 18.496 GHz is detected towards two H ii regions. The implications of the non-detection of radio continuum emission towards G305A and G305B are also discussed.

Cyanopolyynes in hot cores: modelling G305.2+0.2

We present results from a time-dependent gas-phase chemical model of a hot core based on the physical conditions of G305.2+0.2. While the cyanopolyyne HC3N has been observed in hot cores, the longer chained species, HC5N, HC7N and HC9N, have not been considered as the typical hot-core species. We present results which show that these species can be formed under hot core conditions. We discuss the important chemical reactions in this process and, in particular, show that their abundances are linked to the parent species acetylene which is evaporated from icy grain mantles. The cyanopolyynes show promise as ‘chemical clocks’ which may aid future observations in determining the age of hot core sources. The abundance of the larger cyanopolyynes increases and decreases over relatively short time-scales, ~10^2.5 yr. We present results from a non-local thermodynamic equilibrium statistical equilibrium excitation model as a series of density, temperature and column density dependent contour plots which show both the line intensities and several line ratios. These aid in the interpretation of spectral-line data, even when there is limited line information available. In particular, non-detections of HC5N and HC7N in Walsh et al. are analysed and discussed.

Gov 2.0: Towards a User Generated State?

New elements associated withWeb 2.0 relating to interactivity and end-user focus have combined with the availability of newlevels of information to encourage the development of what may be termed a Gov 2.0 approach.This, in combination with recent initiatives in the modernising government programme, has emphasised new levels of public participation and engagement with government as well as a re-engineering of public services tomake them more responsive to their end users. Adopting a governmentality perspective, it is argued that this involves a wider process of governing through constructing and reconstructing ideas of the public, community and individual citizen-consumers who take on a role in their own governance. It is argued that this fundamental re-working of the nature of what is public represents a constitutional change that is perhaps more signi¢cant than the constitutional reform programme directed to formal government which attracts more attention

The Map of Watchful Architecture 2.0:Defensive forms along Ireland's border

For The Map of Watchful Architecture I only concerned myself with defensive architecture along the Border. As the map followed a border it came out as a wavy line of points. This was largely artificial, I only charted architecture within the Border corridor, but was not entirely artificial. That linear landscape has long been staked-out by the regularity of certain kinds of architecture. The 1st/2nd century Black Pig’s Dyke and Dorsey correspond with today’s Border. The concentration of souterrains in north Louth indicate that it may have been a volatile interface zone in later centuries. In 1618 Londonderry and its walls were built. Further north and two centuries later, Martello Towers were constructed to watch over Lough Foyle. During the Second World War pillboxes and observation posts were manned along the Border, close to what was now an international frontier. Then came the Operation Banner installations built during The Troubles. All this adds up to be one of the longest unbroken traditions of defensive architecture anywhere in Western Europe, a tradition some thought finally broken as the last of the Operation Banner towers were de-installed in 2007. But, take a bus south across the Border and you will often be pulled over by the Garda Síochána. They ID check the passengers in an attempt to stop illegal immigration via the UK. What about illegal immigrants who walk through the fields or along quiet lanes? They will have understood the Border is not really how it seems on most maps. It is not a solid line, it is a row of points.

Modelling Duqu 2.0 Malware using Attack Trees with Sequential Conjunction

In this paper we identify requirements for choosing a threat modelling formalisation for modelling sophisticated malware such as Duqu 2.0. We discuss the gaps in current formalisations and propose the use of Attack Trees with Sequential Conjunction when it comes to analysing complex attacks. The paper models Duqu 2.0 based on the latest information sourced from formal and informal sources. This paper provides a well structured model which can be used for future analysis of Duqu 2.0 and related attacks.

Vibrational excitation of the N2+ first negative (0,0), (1,0) and (2,0) bands by electron impact: a theoretical study using the R-matrix approach

Ab initio cross section calculations for vibronic excitation using the R -matrix approach have been performed on the N 2 + molecular ion complex. A three-state close-coupling expansion is used where the electronic target states; X 2 g + , A 2 u and B 2 u + of the molecular cation are represented by a valence configuration-interaction approximation. A non-adiabatic approximation is invoked to study vibronic excitation for the first three negative bands, (0,0), (1,0) and (2,0) of the X-B transition (B 2 u + v ´ X 2 g + v ´´ ) of N 2 + . Fixed-nuclei and non-adiabatic cross section results are compared with the available experimental data for the (0,0) band and the breakdown of the adiabatic fixed-nuclei approximation is clearly evident for the vibronic excitation of the (1,0) and (2,0) bands in this molecular ion complex.

A presença empresarial online e a incorporação de tendências Web 2.0

Numa época marcada pelas novas tecnologias da comunicação e informação, o sector empresarial debate-se com a necessidade de marcar a diferença. Inovar na forma de contactar o cliente (ou possível cliente) e promover a sua marca são objectivos ambicionados pelas empresas ao investirem na sua representação online. Na Web 2.0 a partilha de informação, a instantaneidade nos contactos, o feedback imediato e a proximidade (aparente) são levados ao extremo e apresentam-se como argumentos capazes de suscitar alterações profundas ao nível das estratégias de comunicação empresarial online. Abordando as mais recentes tendências e ferramentas da Web 2.0 na presença online das organizações, recorrendo a revisão bibliográfica alargada, à aplicação e análise de inquéritos por questionário e à observação de presenças organizacionais na World Wide Web, neste estudo procura-se compreender “como estão as empresas nacionais a integrar, na sua presença online, características / ferramentas da Web 2.0”. ABSTRACT: In an era marked by new technologies of information and communication, the business sector has to contend with the need to make the difference. Innovating in the manner of contacting a (possible) client and promoting their brand is a companyʼs desired objective when investing in their online presence. In Web 2.0, the share of information, the instant contact, the immediate feedback and (apparent) proximity are taken to the extreme and are presented as arguments capable of modifying strategies related with a businessʼs online communication. Exploring the latest trends and tools of Web 2.0 in the online representation of organizations, as well as the use of an extended literature review, the application and analysis of surveys and the observation of organizational presences on the World Wide Web; this study seeks to understand "in what way are national companies integrating in their online presence features/tools of the Web 2.0".
