PVD 공정에서 다성분으로 이루어진 나노복합 코팅을 형성하는 것은 원소들간의 합금화 문제로 인해 어렵다. 따라서 일반적으로 두 개 이상의 원소타겟 또는 멀티타겟을 이용한 PVD+PECVD 의 융합공정에 의해 제조된다. 하지만 멀티타겟을 사용한 공정은 공정의 복잡화가 뒤따르며 신뢰성이 떨어진다. 본 연구에서는 멀티타겟의 단점을 보완하기 위해 Ti-Al-X(Cr, Si, B, V) 단일 합금 타겟을 제작하여 나노복합 코팅을 형성하고자 하였다. 기계적 합금화법을 통해 합금분말을 제조하였으며, 방전플라즈마소결법으로 합금 타겟을 제작하였다. 제작된 타겟을 이용하여 스퍼터링 장치를 통해 박막을 형성 하였다. 그 결과 분말은 밀링 시간 20시간에서 정상상태에 도달하였으며, 더 이상 분말의 입자는 줄어들지 않았다. 이때 분말의 입자크기는 $5{\sim}6{\mu}m$ 이었으며 결정립의 크기는 16~20nm 이었다. 소결을 통해 99% 이상의 진밀도를 갖는 합금타겟을 제작하였으며, 이때 결정립의 크기는 매우 미세하였다. 박막의 경우 모두 30GPa 이상의 고경도 특성을 나타냈다.

We obtain a micromechanics-based Helmholtz free energy and then in the framework of irreversible thermodynamics, a kinetic relation, a martensitic nucleation criterion and the reorientation criterion of martensitic variants are obtained. These relations are valid for a three-dimensional proportional and non-proportional loadings and for a combination of mechanical and thermal loading. From the simulated pseudoelastic stress-strain relation of a single crystal with loading rate effect, polycrystalline behavior in case of proportional and non-proportional loading is predicted by a homogenization method. The obtained results are compared quantitatively with experimental results.

Amorphous $MgNi_{1-x}Ti_x$ alloys with the composition of x=0.02, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07 were synthesized by mechanical alloying. The synthesized alloys were investigated by electrochemical test, XRD and SEM. As increasing Ti concentration, the initial discharge capacity was raised more than that of nanocrystalline Mg-Ni 289 mAh/g, but the electrodes were degraded faster. Comparing to other synthesized alloys, $MgNi_{0.95}Ti_{0.05}$ alloy showed the highest initial discharged capacity 474 mAh/g and maintained $54\%$ of the initial capacity after 10 cycles.

Metal hydride alloys of TiFe based system have been produced by mechanical alloying(MA) method and their electrochemical characteristics have been evaluated for application for Ni/MH battery electrode. These alloys became amorphous after 36hrs ball milling and easily activated electrochemically. All MA amorphous alloys reached at the first charge/discharge cycle the maximum capacity which was 2-3 times higher than the crystalline state. But their cyclic lives were much inferior to the crystalline state. Alloying elements such as Ni, Co, Cr, Mo substituting Fe greatly improved the capacity and 180 mAh/g capacity was obtained in an alloy of TiFe_{0.6}Ni_{0.1}Co_{0.1}Cr_{0.1}Mo_{0.1}$.

W-Cu composites utilize the high electrical conductivity of copper and arc erosion resistance of tungsten to provide properties better suited to electrical contact applications than either tungsten or copper alone. W-Cu composite materials were milled in an attritor with an impeller speed of 300rpm for various milling times. The milled powders were compacted at 300MPa into cylinders, 16m in diameter, and approximately 4m high. Sintering was performed in dry H$_2$at temperature ranging from 1200$^{\circ}C$ to 1400$^{\circ}C$. Samples were sectioned and were polished for scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of microstructures. Homogeneous W-Cu composites were formed after 10 hours mechanical alloying and could be attained 99% density at 1330$^{\circ}C$. As mechanical alloying time increased, Fe-concentration was increased linearly. Intermetallic compound formation interupted the growth of W particles Increased hardness.

Recently, one of the hydrogen production methods has attracted using dense metallic membrane. It has high hydrogen permeation and selectivity which hardly could adopt industrial product because of high cost, hydrogen embrittlment and thermal stability. Meanwhile, vanadium has high hydrogen solubility and it use to instead of Pd-Ag amorphous membrane. Aluminum carried out blocking hydrogen diffusion on grain boundary therefore protecting hydrogen embrittlement. Most of dense metallic membrane is solution diffusion mechanism. The solution diffusion mechanism was very similar hydrogen storing steps such as steps of metal hydride. Thus, V-Al composites were fabricated to use hydrogen induced mechanical alloying. The fabricated V-Al composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS and simultaneous TG/DSC analyses. The hydrogenation behaviors were evaluated using a Sievert's type automatic PCT apparatus. The hydrogenation behaviors of V-Al composites was evaluated too low hydrogen stored capacity and fast hydrogenation kinetics. In PCI results, V-Al composites had low hydrogen solubility, in spite of that, hydrogen kinetics was calculated very fast and hydrogen absorption/desorption contents were same capacity.

The main emphasis of this study was to find an new hydrogen absorbing alloy such as Mg-Ti-Ni-H systems, and to investigate their hydrogenation properties. ($Mg_9Ti_x$)-10, 20wt%Ni-Hx systems were prepared by hydrogen induced mechanical alloying(HIMA) using Mg and Ni chips and sponge Ti. The particles synthesized were characterized by X-ray diffraction, and their morphologies were observed by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) with energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). In addition, the crystal structures were analyzed in terms of their bright-/ dark field images and the selected area diffraction pattern(SADP) of transmission electron microscopy(TEM).

In general, internal defects, such as shrinkage in casting, cause stress concentration and can be a starting point for cracks. Therefore, it is important to understand the effects of internal defects on the mechanical properties including the impact behavior. This study aim is to evaluate the effects of internal casting defects on the impact performance of Al-alloy castings. Both an experimental method and computational analysis were used to achieve the research objective. The internal defects in the casting were scanned using an industrial CT scanner, and their shape was simplified using ellipsoidal primitives for impact analysis. The good agreement between the experimental and computer simulation results verified the reliability of the proposed computational method for the FEA of casting components with internal defects.

Mo-Cu 합금은 열전도도, 전기전도도가 우수하고 합금조성에 따라 열팽창계수의 조절이 가능하여 반도체소재, 방열소재, 접점소재 등에 적용가능성이 높은 재료로 주목받고 있다. 또한 상태도 상에서 고용도가 전혀 없기 때문에 박막을 제작하였을 경우, 나노 복합체 형성이 용이하고 질소 분위기에서는 MoN-Cu로 상분리가 가능하여 하드상과 소프트상의 물성을 동시에 보유한 박막 제작이 가능하다. 또한 고온에서 산화반응에 의해 생기는 $MoO_3$, $CuO_3$와 같은 준안정상의 산화물들은 육방정계 구조(HCP)를 가지며 전단특성이 우수하여 자동차 저마찰 코팅재료로써 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 반면, Mo-Cu 는 상호간에 고상은 물론 액상에서도 고용도가 전혀 없기 때문에 일반적인 방법으로는 합금화 또는 복합화가 어렵다. 또한 Mo-Cu 박막을 제작할 경우 복수의 타겟을 이용해야 하기 때문에 성분조절과 구조적 제어가 불리하고 공정의 복잡화라는 단점을 가지고 있으며 추가적으로 다른 원소를 첨가하여 3원계, 4원계 이상의 박막을 형성하는 것에 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 상호간의 고용도가 없는 재료의 합금화가 용이한 기계적 합금화법(Mechanical Alloying)을 이용하여 Mo-Cu 합금분말을 제조하였고, 준안정상태의 구조의 유지가 가능한 방전 플라즈마 소결법(Spark Plasma Sintering)을 이용하여 합금타겟을 제작하였다. Mo-Cu 박막은 제작된 합금타겟을 사용하여 DC 스퍼터링 공정으로 제작하였다. Mo-Cu 박막의 공정조건으로는 타겟조성, 공정분위기, 가스 비율로 정하여 실험을 진행하였다. 제작된 박막은 자동차 코팅재료로써의 적용가능성을 보기 위해서 내열성, 내식성, 내마모성의 특성을 평가하였다.
