Induction surface hardening is widely used to enhance local strength and hardness. However, most research is only to have a focus on fatigue life and fatigue behavior is not so much studied. So, in this study, Cr-Mo steel alloy(SCM440) was used to show the effect of residual stress and micro hole on the fatigue strength fur base metal and induction surface hardened specimen. In addition, the fatigue characteristic between surface hardened and fully hardened steel is somewhat different. It is caused by hardness distribution, residual stress and inclusions etc.. The modification of prediction equation of fatigue strength is proposed and predicted results show very good accuracy. A $textsc{k}$, which is calculated 1.46, is introduced to consider the effect of stationary crack with defect. A new method of modifying residual stress is proposed to examine the mean stress effect under fatigue loading.

본 논문은 콘크리트 표면 균열 영상에서 균열의 특징을 추출하기 위해, 영상 처리 기법을 적용하여 균열의 특징(길이, 폭, 방향)을 자동으로 추출 및 처리 할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 적용된 영상 처리 기법으로는 균열 영상의 빛을 보정하기 위하여 모폴로지 기법인 채움(Closing)기법을 적용한다. 균열의 경계를 명확히 추출하기 위하여 고주파 강화 필터링을 적용한 후, 8가지 색상(검정, 빨강, 파랑, 초록, 노랑, 자주, 주황, 하늘)으로 명암 값을 분류하고 그 중 빈도수가 가장 높은 색상을 가진 명암 값을 제거한 후에 추출한 영상을 이진화한다. 이진화된 영상에서 콘크리트 표면 균열의 실거리 측정을 위한 임의의 선을 제거하기 위하여 위치 히스토그램을 적용하여 임의의 선을 제거한다. 임의의 선이 제거된 균열 영상에서 $5\times5$ 마스크를 적용하여 균열을 확대시키고, 3차례에 걸쳐 잡음 제거연산을 수행하여 균열의 후보 영역을 선택한 후, 후보 영역으로부터 특정 균열들을 추출한다. 추출된 특정 균열을 모폴로지 기법인 제거(Opening) 연산을 수행하여 균열의 특징이 일정하게 유지되게 하고 미세하게 끊어진 부분을 보정하여 균열의 특징(길이, 방향, 폭)을 측정한다. 실제 콘크리트 표면 균열영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 특정 균열이 효율적으로 추출되었고, 특정 균열의 길이, 방향, 폭의 등이 정확히 추출 및 계산되었다.

This paper reveals the effect of the effective case depth(ECD) on the fatigue behavior of a high-frequency induction hardened SM45C in rotated bending fatigue test. In addition, the effects of fracture modes(surface origin type, inner origin type) on it are discussed. The fatigue limit of the induction hardened steel is remarkably increased compared with that of base metal. In addition, the fatigue limit is linearly increased as the effective casedepth grows deep in the region of this experiment (ECD/R;0.23-0.49). The S-N curve and fracture mode in the induction case hardened steel are classified into two kinds, as a result : N$_{f}$<10$^{5}$ ;surface origin type fracture(at high stress), N$_{f}$>10$^{5}$ ; in ner origin type fracture(at low stress). In case of inner origin type fracture; as the effective case depth(ECD) gets deep, the fatigue limit is increased by the reason that the fracture origin moves toward center; in reverse, is decreased by reason that the compressive residual stress gets low. As a result, the increasing effect of the former is much bigger than the decreasing effect of the latter, and the fatigue limit is increased as the ECD gets deep.eep.

금속의 기계적 강화방법인 결정립미세화의 일종으로 미세한 쌍정을 도입하여 기계적강도를 향상시키면서 전기전도도는 감소시키지 않는 방안으로 nanotwin 구조의 Cu가 보고되고 있다. Nanotwin 구조는 FCC결정구조에서 특정 결정면을 [(111) mirror plane]을 기준으로 정합계면을 유지하면서 원자층의 배열이 역전되는 구조가 수~수십나노 수준의 간격으로 이뤄진 미세조직을 의미한다. 전해도금법을 이용한 nanotwin Cu의 형성방법으로는 pulse 파형을 사용하는데, pulse파형의 on time동안의 높은 전류밀도로 인해 발생한 도금층의 stress가 off time동안에 release되면서 nanotwin구조가 형성되는 것으로 보고되고 있다. Nanotwin형성 조건으로 보고된 pulse 도금 조건은 수에서 수십밀리초의 on time에 duty cycle($t_{on}/(t_{off}+t_{on})$)이 1/100~1/10 수준이다. 본 연구에서는 전기이중층의 이온고갈에 필요한 회복시간인 수에서 수십 밀리초 보다 짧은 시간인 마이크로 초($1{\mu}s$, $10{\mu}s$ 및 $100{\mu}s$)의 pulse 전류를 인가하였을 때에 발생하는 구리 도금층의 미세조직의 변화에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

By using propagation characteristics of ultrasonic surface wave, the depth of the surface hardened layer of SCM440 steel with different high frequency induction heat treatments was measured and the same was done on the carburized SCM415 steel. The propagation velocity of surface wave was constant and independent of frequency in t.he specimens with identical microstructure, it was, however, decreased by 59m/s in the hardened layers compared to the unhardened part. From t.he relationship between the effective case depth and the wave length of surface wave, the depth of the hardened layer could be measured and evaluated nondestructively for both induction hardened and carburized steels.

Composites composed of a precipitation harden 2124 alloy matrix reinforced by SiC whiskers, which are fabricated by powder metallugy, are suscepttible to fatigue damage due to the pile-up of moving dislocation and the microcrack initiation along SiC-Al interfaces, especially at the external surfaces of a body. The initial process, such as pile-up of dislocation or microcrack, that corresponds to the stage I during fatigue failure process are too small to be detected and characterized by conventional ultrasonic technique. This paper describes the applicability of an acoustic microscope with Line-Focus-Beam(LFB) lens of 225MHz to evaluate fatigue damage of SiC whiskers reinforced Al alloy. The specimens which were 6.6mm thick, 13mm wide, and 105mm long in the gage section were fatigued in tension-tension under load control. The velocity of leaky surface and leaky pseudosurface acoustic waves are obtained by FFT analysis technique from V(z) curve which is a record of output of piezoelectric transducer. These results are discussed with the change of number of fatigue cycles. The result obtained by acoustic microscope is compared with that by ultrasonic technique generated at 5MHz with conventional surface wave transducers.

In this work, carbon fibers were electrolessly Ni-plated in order to investigate the effect of metal plating on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMI-SE) of Ni-coated carbon fibers-reinforced epoxy matrix composites. The surfaces of carbon fibers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Electric resistance of the composites was tested using a 4-point-probe electric resistivity tester. The EMI-SE of the composites was evaluated by means of the reflection and adsorption methods. From the results, it was found that the EMI-SE of the composites enhanced with increasing Ni plating time and content. In high frequency region, the EMI-SE didn't show further increasing with high Ni content (Ni-CF 10 min) compared to the Ni-CF 5 min sample. In conclusion, Ni content on the carbon fibers can be a key factor to determine the EMI-SE of the composites, but there can be an optimized metal content at a specific electromagnetic frequency region in this system.
