Patent number: 11174531Abstract: A primary heating band is applied to a weld to control a microstructure and hardness of the weld and uniformity of the structure to realize micro-control of the residual stress; an auxiliary heating band is applied a certain distance away from the weld to generate compressive stress on an inner surface of the weld to realize macro-control of the compressive stress. Reinforcement with a rib plate is eliminated, and a labor intensity and a construction period are reduced. The method reduces deformation near the weld and transfers the largest deformation to a non-weld zone; by applying the auxiliary heating and strictly controlling a time interval between primary heating and auxiliary heating, the structure is improved and the welding residual stress is controlled at the same time; a local heat treatment effect is optimized, and a small tensile stress or compressive stress is generated on the inner surface of the weld.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2020Date of Patent: November 16, 2021Assignee: CHINA UNIVERSITY OF PETROLEUM(EAST CHINA)Inventors: Wenchun Jiang, Qiang Jin, Wenbin Gu, Xiancheng Zhang, Shandong Tu

Publication number: 20190354889Abstract: Disclosed is a method of predicting a failure probability of a brittle material in a high temperature creep state. Based on the prior art, assuming that an uniaxial creep failure strain obeys Weibull Distribution in combination with a natural attribute of random distribution of internal defects of the brittle material, a probability density distribution curve of the uniaxial creep failure strain is obtained by using an uniaxial creep test, and a probability density function of a multiaxial creep failure strain is obtained based on a conversion relationship of uniaxial and multiaxial creep failure strains and further a calculation model of a failure probability is obtained by integration; based on this, a prediction result of a failure probability of the brittle material in the high temperature creep state is obtained by writing a sub-program by using a Fortran language and embedding the sub-program into a finite element software in combination with a creep-damage constitutive equation.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2017Publication date: November 21, 2019Inventors: Yucai ZHANG, Wenchun JIANG, Huiqin ZHAO, Shandong TU, Xuefang XIE, Xiang LING

Patent number: 9551596Abstract: A manufacturing method for a high-temperature-resistant metal-packaged fiber Bragg grating sensor includes using a regenerated fiber Bragg grating obtained via high-temperature annealing as a sensitive element so that the grating will not be erased when used at high temperature. The method also includes using a magnetron sputtering method which makes an optical fiber and metal combine better to form on the surface of the optical fiber an adhesive layer and a conductive layer, thereby causing little damage to optical fiber because of the absence of the processes of coarsening, sensitization, etc. of electroless plating and the fact that the method is performed in an anhydrous environment. After magnetron sputtering, the method includes using an electroplating method to thicken and deposit a protective layer, and embedding the optical fiber in a flexible-structure metallic substrate through the electroplating method to achieve the all-metal package.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2012Date of Patent: January 24, 2017Assignee: East China University of Science and TechnologyInventors: Shandong Tu, Yun Tu, Yihua Qi, Peng Han, Xiancheng Zhang, Fuzhen Xuan
