Rapid progress in many branches of technology has led to a demand on new materials such as high strength light weight alloys, powdered alloys and composite materials. The hydrostatic extrusion is essentially a method of extruding a clad rod through a die. In order to investigate the effect of the process conditions such as friction heat, deformation and clad thickness on the clad extrusion process, viscoplastic finite element simulations were conducted. A specific model for theoretical analysis used in this study is The single scalar variable version of Hart's model. An experiment also has been carried out using 1.5MN hydrostatic extruder with variable speed ram, LVDT and load cell for comparison. It is found that the hydrostatic extrusion pressure considering the effect of heat dissipation in this theoretical work was closer to the experimental pressure than the isothermal hydrostatic extrusion pressure.

각종섬유를 연속섬유 보강재로 사용하는 경우, 일반적으로 수지를 매트릭스로 하여 봉재 형상(FRP rod)으로 제조하고있다. 성형된 섬유는 수지가 섬유의 보호재 역할을 하기 때문에, 콘크리트내의 알칼리와 절연되어 열화가능성이 작다고 고려된다. 그러나, 일반적으로 섬유를 둘러싼 수지는 그 두께가 수 {$mu}m$이하로 특히 얇고, 운반이나 보관시에 수지가 물리적 변형 및 자외선에 의한 열화가 일어날 가능성이 높다. 또 알칼리에 의하여 에스테르의 가수분해반응에 따른 폴리머의 부식 등, 수지에 알칼리의 침입을 완전히 막는 것이 불가능하게 여겨진다.

고온형 SOFC의 개발에 있어 스택의 신뢰성을 확보하는데 가장 중요한 핵심기술은 스택 구성요소 사이를 접합하는데 필요한 고온형 밀봉재의 개발이다. SOFC 스택에서의 밀봉재는 고체전해질과 접속자 사이에서 음극에 공급되는 연료가스와 양극에 공급되는 공기가 서로 혼합되는 것을 방지하는 역할은 물론 기계적으로 취약한 단전지의 보호 및 스택전체 구조물의 구조적 일체성(Structural integrity)을 부여하는데 주목적이 있다. 현재 기체 기밀성을 유지하기 위한 밀봉재는 크게 유리 및 결정화 유리계, mica및 mica/유리복합재료, 유리/충전재 복합재료 등이 사용되고 있으나 다수의 단위전지로 구성되는 스택 구성에서 스택의 열기계적 안정성 및 장기수명을 보장하기 위해서는 본 연구에서 개발하고자 하는 복합밀봉재가 가장 적합할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $SiO_2-B_2O_3-RO$계에 BaO, SrO를 일정비율로 첨가하여 제작된 유리 frit을 열처리하여 물리화학적 물성변화를 검토하였으며, $700^{\circ}C$ 이하의 연화점을 갖는 유리를 기지상으로 하고 세라믹 보강재를 첨가한 고온형 복합밀봉재를 개발하고 그 물리화학적 안정성, 열기계적 안정성 및 밀봉 특성을 평가하였다.

The aim of this research is to evaluate the wear properties of (TiB+TiC) paticulate reinforced titanium matrix composites (TMCs) by in-situ synthesis. Different particle sizes (1500, $150{\mu}m$) and contents (0.94, 1.88 and 3.76 mass% for Ti, 1.98 and 3.96 mass% for the Ti6Al4V alloy) of boron carbide were added to pure titanium and to a Ti6Al4V alloy matrix during vacuum induction melting to provide 5, 10 and 20 vol.% (TiB+TiC) particulate reinforcement amounts. The wear behavior of the (TiB+TiC) particulate reinforced TMCs is described in detail with regard to the coefficient of friction, the hardness, and the degree of reinforcement fragmentation during sliding wear. The worn surfaces of each sliding wear condition are shown for the three types of wear studied here: transfer layer wear, particle cohesion wear and the development of abrasive areas. The fine reinforcements of TMCs were easily fragmented from the Ti matrix as compared to coarse reinforcements, and fragmented debris accelerated the decrease in the wear resistance.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the microstructure and tensile property of in-situ (TiB+TiC) particulate reinforced titanium matrix composites (TMCs) synthesized by the investment casting process. Boron carbide ($1,500{\mu}m$ and $150{\mu}m$) was added to the titanium matrix during vacuum induction melting, which can provide the in-situ reaction of $5Ti+B_4C{\rightarrow}4TiB+TiC$. 0.94, 1.88 and 3.76 wt% of $B_4C$ were added to the melt. The phases identification of the in-situ synthesized TMCs was examined using scanning electron microscopy, an X-ray diffractometer, an electron probe micro-analyzer and transmission electron microscopy. Tensile properties of TMCs were investigated in accordance with the reinforcement size and volume fraction. The improvement of tensile property of titanium matrix composites was caused by load transfer from the titanium matrix to the reinforcement and by grain refinement of titanium matrix and reinforcements.

The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the endurance against Al alloy melts and wear resistance of an in-situ synthesized titanium matrix composite (TMC) sleeve for aluminum alloy die-casting. The conventional die-casting shot sleeve material was STD61 tool steel. TMCs have great thermal stability, wear and oxidation resistance. The in-situ reaction between Ti and $B_4C$ leads to two kinds of thermodynamically stable reinforcements, such as TiBw and TiCp. To evaluate the feasibility of the application to a TMCs diecasting shot sleeve, the interfacial reaction behavior was examined between Al alloys melts with TMCs and STD61 tool steel. The pin-on-disk type dry sliding wear test was also investigated for TMCs and STD61 tool steel.

The sonophoresis, a representative low-intensity ultrasonic therapy, is a technique for delivering the drugs into the epidermis, dermis and skin appendages by using physical vibration and heat effects of the ultrasonic waves. Sonophoresis could increases the delivering and absorption efficiency of the drugs usually consisting of hydrophilic molecules and macromolecules. In addition, it has the advantage of being effective in delivering drugs with relatively large molecular sizes such as insulin or lipid. In this study, we proposed a multi-structure ultrasonic transducer assembly with a large-size single piezoelectric element and a drug delivery function at the treatment site for efficient sonophoresis treatment. Futhermore, a transducer assembly structure capable of raising and maintaining the temperature of the treatment site was proposed and evaluated for effectiveness. The transducer assembly proposed in this study is expected to improve the efficiency of sonophoresis by providing a constant amount of drug, and assisting drug delivery through heating the treatment site.

The purpose of this research was to compare the microtensile bond strength of resin coated surface and resin inlay according temporary filling materials prior to applying self-adhesive resin cement. Caviton(GC, Japan), Provifil(Promedica, Neumunster, Germany), Provifil(Promedica, Neumunster, Germany) & petrolatum, and Eugenol-based cement, Tembond(Kerr, Orange CA, USA) were used as temporary filling materials. After fabrication of Tescera(Bisco, Schamburg IL, USA), it was bonded with a self-adhesive resin cement, Rely X unicem(3M, St. Paul. Minn, USA). After this procedure, the microtensile bond strength was measured and it was analyzed through one-way ANOVA and Duncan test(p<0.05). Caviton(GC, Tokyo, Japan) showed statistical difference except for the control(group I) and the saliva(group II)(p<0.05). Provifil(group IV), Provifil & petroneum(group V), Tembond(group VI) had lower microtensile bond strength.

A proper sealant for low temperature SOFCs should show zero or low leak rates to avoid direct mixing of the fuel and oxidant gases or leakage of fuel gas during the operation of SOFCs. Furthermore, it should be chemically and/or mechanically stable in both oxidizing and reducing environments and chemically compatible with other fuel cell components. In the present work, we developed a novel compressed seal gasket of glass-based composite reinforced with ceramic particulate particles, which can efficiently control the viscous flow of glass matrix as well as the crystallization of glass phase. This novel sealing gasket showed excellent gas tightness under very low compressive load which would be suitable for the operation of SOFCs in the temperature range $600{\sim}650^{\circ}C$.
