Study on Pressure Relief Zone Formed Inside Roadway Rib by Rotary Cutting with Pressurized Water Jet for Preventing Rock Burst by Zeng-Qiang Yang, Chang Liu, Hui-Wu Jin

“…By means of theoretical analysis, the coal-rock mass system has three strain-stress states under the influence of static load, and it has another strain-stress state under the influence of static and dynamic combined load; meanwhile, the greater the horizontal tectonic stress caused by fold structure is, the more prone to instability and failure and induce rock burst coal mass composed of countless cell cubes is; when a pressure relief zone is formed inside the roadway rib by using pressurized water jet technology, the initial single peak stress curve will change to a final bimodal stress curve inside the roadway rib. …”

Phase Transformation, Microstructures, and Mechanical Properties of α + β Two-Phase Titanium Alloy Deposited Metal by Surfacing Welding by Naiwen Fang, Ruisheng Huang, Kai Xu, Tianli Zhang, Pengbo Wu, Yiming Ma, Hao Cao, Jian Qin, Jipeng Zou

“…The results showed that primary α phase began to appear at grain boundaries when the deposited metal was heated to 890.5°C, and microstructures were all composed of coarse β columnar grains after the temperature was raised to 1 190.2°C; with the increase of cooling rate during the cooling process, temperature for starting new phase transformation decreased from 943.7°C to 811.1°C, and temperature for ending the transformation increased gradually from 708.0°C to 736.2°C; when cooled to room temperature at a rate of 1°C/s, microstructures consisted of α phase; at a rate of 15°C/s, acicular α′ martensite appeared in the microstructures; at 100°C/s, the microstructures were completely comprised by acicular α′ martensite; when the cooling rate was low, V element would be slightly precipitated from αgb into the matrix; when cooling turned faster, V element had no time to enter the matrix by diffusion, so it became uniformly distributed; as the cooling rate getting faster, lamellar microstructures became thinner gradually, and microhardness of the deposited metal was improved in a gradual manner.…”
