The Literary Life of a Science Leader

Chapter 23 Always Progressing
"Failed."

Mu Jingchi sighed, this was not beyond his expectation, after all, this was a complete experiment that he really did, from the design of the experimental plan to the construction of the theoretical structure, and then to the hands-on practical experiment, it could be regarded as a complete experiment. first.

"However, it's too fast for me to encounter difficulties!"

It is normal for experiments to fail. There are too many factors affecting materials in material research, and many of them are affected at the atomic level, and it is impossible to manipulate atoms at all.

In addition, it is also the first time for Mu Jingchi to get started with material technology, and the existence of some errors can lead to huge differences in the performance of materials.

"The crystallization process failed just before the ingot was cast."

After the metal material is smelted, it is cast into an ingot mold or a casting mold, and through cooling, the liquid metal is transformed into a solid metal to obtain an ingot or casting of a certain shape.

This process belongs to the crystallization process.

The ingot was polished with metallographic sandpaper and then etched with an etchant.When observed under a metallographic microscope, the morphology of its internal microscopic composition can be seen.

These aggregates of one or more phases of different shapes, sizes, and distributions, as well as various material defects and damages, are tissues.

However, the phases here are very different from the calculated phase diagram of Mujingchi, and the defects and damages of the materials are very obvious.

As soon as you test it, you know that the performance of this material is not good at all.

There is no need to go through subsequent molding processing and recrystallization. This material fails during the first crystallization process.

Although he failed, Mu Jingchi was not discouraged. After all, failure is the mother of success.

On the contrary, he was very interested, and found out all the data obtained from the experiment, analyzed them with the knowledge of mathematics and physics, and even conducted more detailed research on the material engineering process.

The second time, it failed.

The third time, failed.

The fourth time, failed.

the fifth time. . .

As the number of failures increased, Mu Jingchi became more and more proficient, and he became more and more in-depth with various data. Looking at a set of data, he can instantly know whether the data is normal or not.If it is not normal, which link has the problem and how should it be improved.

At this time, Mu Jingchi is deeply grateful for the knowledge in "Basics of Materials Science (2069 Edition)".For materials researchers 50 years later, that is the foundation.

But for the current Mu Jingchi, a lot of it is advanced knowledge.

Using this knowledge, Mu Jingchi has a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of materials, and is more sensitive to data.With the help of this knowledge, he already felt that he was not far from success.

The experiment is a time-consuming thing, and Mu Jingchi, who is immersed in the experiment, doesn't care about the passage of time at all.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of December.

According to the solar calendar, it will be New Year's Eve in two days.Of course, graduate students do not have holidays. Generally, winter and summer vacations are just one week of rest, which is considered a holiday.

this day.

Professor Yang came to this floor of Mujingchi's experiment and entered the graduate student's office.At this time, Mujingchi is calculating and correcting some data, striving to obtain materials with better performance in the next experiment.

"professor."

Unlike many graduate students who call their supervisors their bosses, Mu Jingchi has always called his professors directly, and he doesn't like the title of boss.

Besides, generally those who do research with a commercial nature are called bosses.The projects that Professor Yang undertakes are basically national projects, with research and development funded by the state, and he works with other research institutes to complete the research and development of national projects.

So the boss is really not suitable for Professor Yang.

Yang Wenwu raised his hand and asked Mu Jingchi to follow him out of the office. This was not a place for conversation. After all, there were other graduate students studying.

Come outside, stand in the corridor, and look at the scenery outside.

"How is it? Do you regret it?" Yang Wenwu asked Mu Jingchi with a smile on his face, "I heard that the results of your own experiments were not satisfactory?"

Mu Jingchi also laughed, he smiled from the heart, after all, Professor Yang's actions proved that he still cared about him.

"It's okay, although the experimental results are not ideal, but it has been improving."

"It's a bit boring to make materials, isn't it?"

Mu Jingchi nodded, then shook his head again, "It's really boring, but I'm used to it. However, I don't think it's boring, it's quite interesting."

Compared with the colorful world outside, it is really not easy to do material research.

In his previous life, he experienced the Huahua Internet world, and all kinds of interesting and fun things appeared in his life.In this life, he has experienced a life of a school laboratory and a home hut, which can be described as a real two points and one line.

He doesn't even bother to read the comments on "Luzhou Moon" in Netease Cloud Music, which shows that he is busy and boring.

However, Mu Jingchi likes the current situation very much.The world is always diverse and ever-changing, and it can be said to be colorful, but this kind of two-point and one-line life is also what he likes.

Enjoy the enrichment of knowledge brought by the experiment, and the sense of comfort and tranquility brought by the house and system.

There is a feeling of minimalist living.

Professor Yang's smile became even brighter, and he patted Mu Jingchi on the shoulder like his relatives and elders, "You are very good, very stable, and you are really suitable for the material."

Many students are talented, but they can't hold back the impetuousness in their hearts, they are blinded by short-term interests outside, and finally waste their talents.

But Mu Jingchi's steady state of mind is very popular with him.

Now that the country's economy has risen, it is not as embarrassing as it used to be. It can be said that the investment in material research is relentless investment, and the treatment of scientific researchers will only get better and better.

"Work hard and don't be discouraged. In material research, experiment failure is a very common thing, just look at it."

Mu Jingchi nodded, "Understood, Professor."

Yang Wenwu walked away with his steps, and Mu Jingchi returned to his office to continue studying the data.

···
After parking the car, Mu Jingchi took the elevator home.

The elevator stopped on the first floor, and a girl came in pushing a big suitcase, which caused Mu Jingchi to take a second look.

Because the area of ​​this building is limited, there are not as many residents as in other buildings. Waking up early every morning, watching and listening more can almost let Mu Jingchi get to know the residents of this building.

But he has never seen this girl.

The girl's body was not tall, not even reaching Mu Jingchi's shoulders, just reaching her chest. She had short hair.She was about to press the elevator floor button, and saw that the floor displayed was the 27th floor, which was the floor of her home.

Involuntarily, the girl looked at Mu Jingchi twice more.

Mu Jingchi wasn't shy either, when the girl looked at him, he also looked directly at her.
