Endpoint carbon content and temperature prediction model in BOF steelmaking based on posterior probability and intra-cluster feature weight online dynamic feature selection by Wang Haodong, Liu Hui, Chen FuGang, Li Heng, Xue XiaoJun

“…Finally, the dynamically selected features are used in a regression model to predict the carbon content and temperature of the BOF steelmaking process data. Simulations of actual BOF steelmaking process data showed that the prediction accuracy was 86% within a carbon content error range of 0.02, and 88% within a temperature error range of 10°C.…”

Effect of load and temperature on the abrasion behavior of the 20CrMnTi alloy steel by WU Xiaolong, DU Yaosen, GAO Pengju, TANG Xiaoren, WANG Xiaosai

“…It is very important to master the failure mechanism of surface abrasion damage of 20CrMnTi alloy steel during actual service.MethodsBased on the wear test device and electrochemical corrosion workstation, the damage behavior and corrosion kinetics of the 20CrMnTi alloy steel at different temperatures (25 ℃/100 ℃) and loads (35 N/55 N/75 N) were studied.ResultsThe test results show that the increase of wear temperature and normal load will aggravate the wear of the material, and then reduce the electrochemical corrosion resistance of the surface. …”
