This study is related to the surface hardening treatment to spheroidal graphite cast iron for die by using high power diode laser. Laser device used in this experiment is capable of real-time laser power control. This is because the infrared temperature sensor (two color pyrometer) attached to the optical system measures the surface temperature of specimen and adjusts the laser power in real time. The surface treatment was carried out with the change of heat treatment temperature at the beam travel speed 3 mm/sec. Hardened width and depth was measured and hardened zone was analyzed by micro vickers hardness test in order to research the optimum condition of heat treatment. The changes in microstructure of the hardened zone also was examined. As a result of hardness measurement and observations on microstructure of hardened zone, hardness increased over three times as compared with base metal because the martensite was formed on the matrix structure.

Curing behavior and glass transition temperatures of epoxy resins into which reactive diluents were added to control processability were investigated. Heat of cure generated of the epoxy resin was reduced with butyl glycidyl ether(BGE) and phenyl glycidyl ether(PGE) contents. $T_g$ of the resin was decreased with the amount of reactive diluents and it was attributed to increased molecular weight between crosslink points. Cure kinetics of the resins was studied employing autocatalytic reaction model and found that reaction constants decreased as the contents of reactive diluent was increased.

Laser beam hardening of 12%-Cr steel has been evaluated by using a continuous wave 3kW co$_{2}$ laser with a hardening mirror set. Experiment was performed on the hardening condition with a laser power of 2.85kW and travel speed of 1.0 and 1.5m/min. Multi passes have been also tried to find the hardening characteristics of partly overlapped zone. The black paint to use at high temperature was adopted to increase the absorptivity of laser beam energy with the wavelength of 10.6.mu.m at the surface of base metal. The microstructure of the hardened layers was observed by using a light microscopy, SEM and TEM. A fine Lamellar martensite formed in the hardened zones exhibits very high Vickers microhardness of 600Hv, whereas the tempered martensite distributes in the base metal with Vickers microhardness of 240Hv.It has been found that laser hardening with multi passes showed no significant drop of the hardness between adjacent passes.

Recently, with the high performance and efficiency of machine, there have been required the multi-functions in various machine parts, such as the heat resistance, the abrasion resistance and the stress resistance as well as the strength. Fatigue crack growth tests were carried out to investigate the fatigue characteristics of high carbon steel (SM53C) experienced by high-frequency induction treatment. The influence of high-frequency induction treatment on fatigue limit was experimentally examined with the specialfocus on the variation of surface microstructure and the fatigue crack initiation and propagation through fractography. Also, the shape of hardening depth, hardened structure, hardness, and fatigue-fracture characteristics of SM53C composed by carbon steel are also investigated.

단열용도의 폴리우레탄 미세포 포움의 가공에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 미세포 구조 를 얻기 위해서는 핵생성율을 증진시키고 균일한 분포의 기포를 생성시켜야 한다. 이를 위 해 이산화탄소 기체를 풀리올과 이소시아네이트에 각각 과포화시키고 충돌혼합하여 초음파 가진을 적용하였다. 이산화탄소 기체가 수지 내부에서 기포 내부로 확산함에 따라 기포의 성장이 조절된다고 가정하고 금형이 충전되는 동안에 금형 내부에서의 기포성장기구를 이해 하기 위하여 수치적인 방법으로 이론적 연구를 수행하였다. 경화 시간과 확산 경계를 고려 하여 최종적인 기포의 크기를 계산하였으며 반응속도론을 고려하여 중합반응동안의 폴리우 레탄의 점도의 변화를 예측하고 경화 시간을 결정하였다. 실험적으로 결정된 기체 분자수를 기준으로 하여 이론적으로 확산경계를 예측하였다. 화학적 발포제인 물과 함께 물리적 발포 제인 이산화탄소를 각각 1,2,3기압의 포화압력으로 변화시키면서 폴리올과 이소시아네이트에 포화시켜 폴리우레탄 포움을 제작하고 제작된 포움의 밀도, 열전도도, 및 기포의 수와 지름 을 측정하였다. 측정된 결과로부터 이산화탄소의 포화압력과 초음파 가진이 포움의 기포핵 생성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다.

This paper presents the development process for a high-power diode laser for metal surface hardening. To combine the emissions from several laser bars, it is necessary to collimate the emitted light using an optical lens. Thus, to achieve a suitable power density and uniform beam profile, several optical layouts were proposed. To estimate the laser beam for a flat-top distribution, a numerical analysis was performed using the ZEMAX software, and the results were compared with the experimental results. With a focal lens assembled in a serial diode stack source, the design can utilize the advantage of compacting the overall beam size. Experimental results for a robotic system demonstrated the processing ability of this diode laser module in industrial laser hardening.

In order to achieve long fatigue lifetimes for cyclically pressurized thick cylinders, multi-layered compound cylinder has been proposed. Such compound cylinder involves a shrink-fit procedure incorporating a monobloc tube which has previously undergone autofrettage. The basic autofrettage theory assumes elastic-perfectly plastic behaviour. Because of the Bauschinger effect and strain-hardening, most materials do not display elastic-perfectly plastic properties and consequently various autofrettage mo dels are based on different simplified material strain-hardening models, which is assumed that combination of linear strain-hardenig and power strain-hardening model. This approach gives a more accurate prediction than the elastic-perfectly plastic model and is suitable for different strain-hardening materials. In this paper, a general autofrettage model that incorporates the material strain-hardening relationship and the Bauschinger effect, based upon the actual tensile-compressive stress-strain curve of a material was proposed. The model was obtained using the von Mises yield criterion and plane strain condition. The tensile-compressive stress-strain curve was obtained by experiment. The parameters needed in the model were determined by fitting the actual tensile-compressive curve of the material. Finally, strain- hardening model was compared with elastic-perfectly plastic model.

열간단조후 절삭가공하여 냉간 성형가공하는 알루미늄 제품은 열간단조하면 재료가 연화되어 있어 절삭가공시 연속적인 칩이 발생하여 공구와 피삭재를 감고 회전함으로서 가공면 손상, 공구파손 및 작업자의 안전을 초래함에 따라 가공이 어려워 단지 절삭성 개선 목적만을 위해 중간공정으로 T4 열처리하여 절삭가공하고 다시 어닐링처리하여 냉간성형을 하고 최종열처리를 한다. 따라서 본 연구는 열간단조후 제품을 급냉시키면 용제화처리의 효과를 얻어 재료가 경화됨으로써 절삭성이 개선될 수 있다는 이론에 근거하여 T4 열처리를 대체할 수 있는 후처리 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 최적의 후처리방법을 구하기 위해 열간단조후 수냉과 공냉처리를 비교 분석하였고, 열간단조후 냉각처리까지 지연된 시간과 수냉과정에서의 유지시간에 따른 분석을 통해 최적의 작업조건을 선정하였다.
