The Micromechanics test is new test method which uses comparatively smaller specimen than that required in conventional material tests. There are several methods, such as small-specimen creep test, the continuous indentation test, and small punch(SP) test. Among them, the small punch(SP) test method has been applied to many evaluation fields, such as a ductile-brittle transition temperature, stress corrosion cracking, hydrogen embrittlement, and fracture properties of advanced materials like FGM or MMC. In this study, the small punch(SP) test is performed to evaluate the mechanical properties at high/low temperature from $-196^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$ and the material degradation for virgin and aged materials of 9Cr1MoVNb steel which has been recently developed. The ${\Delta}P/{\Delta}{\delta}$ parameter defined a slope in plastic membrane stretching region of SP load-displacement curve decreases according to the increase of specimen temperature, and that of aged materials is higher than the virgin material in all test temperatures. And the material degradation degrees of aged materials with $630^{\circ}C$ -500hrs and $630^{\circ}C$ -1000hrs are $36^{\circ}C$ and $38^{\circ}C$ respectively. These behaviors are good consistent with the results of hardness($H_v$) and maximum displacement(${\delta}_{max}$).

Mixing in Y-channel micro mixer is analyzed through computational fluid dynamics. In the case of passive mixing, we investigate the effect of geometric parameters on the mixing efficiency, such as shape of throttling geometry and angle between two inlets. Mixing performance improves as two fluids join not just horizontally but both vertically and horizontally, and it also improves when channel follows throttling shapes. A numerical results substantiate the highly efficient mixing performance. It is highly beneficial to fabrication process since the proposed throttling geometry is simple, but allows high mixing ratio.

Electroosmotic flow induced by an applied electrostatic potential field in microchannel is analyzed in this study. The electroosmotic flow is an alternative to pressure driven flow in microchannels, but the usage has been limited to the simple cases. In this study, We analyze electroosmotic flow driven by inhomogeneous surface charge on the channel wall. The surface charge varies along a direction perpendicular to the electric field in order to generate the electroosmotic flow. A numerical results substantiate the highly efficient mixing performance. It is highly the beneficial to fabrication process since only straight microchannel rather than complex geometry is enough to yield efficient mixing.

Recently, the analysis of microcutting with submicrometer depth of cut is tried to get a more high quality surface product, but to get a valuable result another method instead of conventional finite element method must be considered because finite element method is impossible for a very small focused region and mesh size. As the alternative method, Molecular Dynamics or Statics is suggested and accepted in the field of microcutting, indentation and crack propagation. In this paper using Molecular Dynamics simulation, the phenomena of microcutting with subnanometer chip thickness is studied and the cutting mechanism for tool edge configuration is evaluated. As the result of simulation the atomistic chip formation is achieved.

For the analysis of solids containing a number of microinclusions or microvoids, in which the mechanical effect of each inclusion or void, a numerical approach is need to be developed to understand the mechanical behavior of damaged solids containing these defects. In this study, the simulation method using the natural element method is proposed for the analysis of effective elastic moduli. The mechanical effect of each inclusion or void is considered by controlling the material constants for Gaussian points. The relationship between area fraction of microinclusions or microvoids and effective elastic moduli is studied to verify the validity of the proposed method. The obtained results are in good agreement with the theoretical results such as differential method, self-consistent method, Mori-Tanaka method, as well as the numerical results by rigid body spring model.

Numerical analysis of the progressive failure of a rock slope was conducted using a 3-D rock joint element considering fracture mechanics and subcritical crack growth of asperities in the rock joints. Even though the stress state in the rock slope is not changing, the elapse of time causes subcritical crack growth to break asperities in the joints. The increase of broken asperities causes failure of joints in the rock slope and the increase of failed joints results in failure of a jointed rock slope. As a result, the progressive failure of a jointed rock slope due to the gradual breaking of small asperities along joints generated by subcritical crack growth occurs at a lower stress than if rock failure occurred by exceeding the static strength or fracture toughness.
