Improving the strength-ductility balance of medium-Mn Q&P steel by controlling cold-worked ferrite microstructure

The phase transformations, microstructure and properties of two Medium-Mn processed via quenching and partitioning steels were compared in this contribution and a new strategy for controlling mechanical properties by introducing and controlling cold-worked ferrite prior to heat treatment is proposed. It was found that during heating, the...

Prognostics of radiation power degradation lifetime for ultraviolet light-emitting diodes using stochastic data-driven models

With their advantages of high efficiency, long lifetime, compact size and being free of mercury, ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV LEDs) are widely applied in disinfection and purification, photolithography, curing and biomedical devices. However, it is challenging to assess the reliability of UV LEDs based on the traditional life test or...
