핵융합로 제1벽재로서 주목받고 있는 저방사화 Cr-Mn-W계 오스테나이트 스테인리스강에 소량의 V을 첨가하고 그 기본 조성에 시그마상의 생성억제와 합금의 고온강도 향상에 효과가 있는 질소함량을 변화시켜 미세 조직 특성 및 부식 저항성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 질소함량의 변화에 의한 영향과 더불어 소둔열처리 온도의 영향도 살펴보았다. 부식저항성 평가를 위해서는 양극분극시험, 침지시험, Huey시험을 행하였으며, 기계적 성질 평가를 위해서는 경도시험 및 인장 시험을 행하였다 그 결과 질소량이 증가할수록 오스테나이트상이 안정화되어 그 양이 증가하며 고용강화에 의해 경도치도 함께 증가함을 알 수 있었다 경도치는 또한 소둔온도가 증가함에 의해 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 한편 소둔온도가 증가할수록 페라이트량이 증가함을 확인하였다. 부식저항성은 질소량이 증가할수록 소둔온도가 증가할수록 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.

Integranular corrosion behaviors of KAL (Knife Line Attack) and mechanical properties such as tensile and creep rupture were investigated for the tube material used for nearly 20 years under the condition of 463.deg. C and 28 $kg/cm^2$. Based and weld metal were austenitic stainless steel AISI 321 containing Ti, AISI 347 containing Nb, respectively. KLA is a kind of the intergranular corrosion which often occurs just near the HAZ (heat affected zone) of AISI 321 and AISI 347 stainless steel due to the grain boundary sensitization. In KLA zone, intergranular corrosion crack has propagated outwards from the inner surface and carbides of white and narrow band type assuming as (Cr, Fe) carbide were confirmed. All the delta-ferrite formed in the weld metal during weld solidification has been transformed into sigma-phase since delta-ferrte was exposed for 20 years at 463.deg. C. Elongation was very low at the range from room temperature to 600.deg. C and it was confirmed that creep-rupture properties were not consideralbly affected.

An area efficient, low power switch-matrix semidigital FIR reconstruction filter for delta-sigma D/A converter is proposed. Filter coefficients are quantified to 7-bit and 7 current sources that correspond to each coefficient bit are used. The proposed semidigital FIR reconstruction filter is designed in a 0.25 um CMOS process and incorporates 1.5 mm$^{2}$ of active area and a power consumption is 3.8 mW at 2.5 V supply. The number of switching transistors is 1419 at 205 filter order. Simulation results show that the filter output has a dynamic range of 104 dB and 84 dB attenuation of out-of-band quantization noise.

In this paper, in order to design the A / D converter with a high resolution of 14 bits or more for the biological signal processing, CMOS delta sigma modulator that is a 1.8V power supply voltage - were designed. we propose a new structure of The fourth order delta-sigma modulator that needs four op amps but we use only two op amps. By using a time -interleaving technique, we can re-construct the circuit and reuse the op amps. Also, we proposed a KT/C noise reduction circuit to reduce the thermal noise from a noisy resistor. We adjust the size of sampling capacitor between sampling time and integrating time, so we can reduce almost a half of KT/C noise. The measurement results of the chip is fabricated using a Magna 0.18um CMOS n-well1 poly 6 metal process. Power consumption is $828{\mu}W$ from a 1.8V supply voltage. The peak SNDR is measured as a 75.7dB and 81.3dB of DR at 1kHz input frequency and 256kHz sampling frequency. Measurement results show that KT/C noise reduction circuit enhance the 3dB of SNDR. FOM of the circuit is calculated to be 142dB and 41pJ / step.

Orbital interactions between two nonbonding orbitals have been investigated for heteroatom analogues of trimethylene diradical using MINDO/3 and STO-3G methods. The results showed that the conformers in which significant ${\sigma}$-aromatic stabilization is involved exhibited level order reversal to $n_-$ below $n_+$ as it was found for trimethylene diradical. Lone pair orbitals (LPO) were found to be stabilized by charge dispersion accompanying vicinal trans $n-{\sigma}^*$ interaction and hydrogen bonding. In systems with different heteroatoms, N and O, the contribution of the LPO of oxygen, $n_O$ was always greater in the lower level whereas that of nitrogen, nN, was greater in the higher level as can be expressed as : $n_{\pm}$(lower) = $n_O{\pm}{\lambda}_Nn_N.\;n_{\pm}(higher)\;=\;n_N{\pm}{\lambda}_On_O$. where ${\lambda}_i$< 1.0

Super duplex stainless steels (sDSS) are excellent for use under severely corrosive conditions such as offshore and marine applications like pipelines and flanges. sDSS has better mechanical properties and corrosion resistance than the standard duplex stainless steel (DSS) but it is easier for a sigma phase to appear, which depresses the mechanical property and corrosion resistance, compared to DSS, because sDSS has a higher alloy element than DSS. In addition, sDSS has a feeble ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) because it has a 50% ferrite microstructure. In the actual operating environment, sDSS would be thermally affected by welding and a sub-zero temperature environment. This study analyzed how precipitated sDSS behaves at a sub-zero temperature through annealing heat treatment and a sub-zero tensile test. Six types of specimens with annealing times of up to 60 min were tested in a sub-zero chamber. According to the experimental results, an increase in the annealing time reduced the elongation of sDSS, and a decrease in the tensile test temperature raises the flow stress and tensile stress. In particular, the elongation of specimens annealed for 15 min and 30 min was clearly lowered with a decrease in the tensile test temperature because of the increasing sigma phase fraction ratio.

As the knowledge-based society has been constructed, the size of work process that has to be done grows bigger and the amount of the information that has to be analyzed increases. So each company is trying to construct more conformable process models in business model. This study helps to understand the interaction between Process data and structure which are collected on the profess by appling six Sigma as a process improving methodology. On Six Sigma, businesses tn practice Best Practice Process with the view of Value Chain To measure data for the process performing action, introducing Schedule management method makes it possible to collect and reflect accurate data of workers' ability. By this method, efficiency in production will be improved because workers we able to perform the process correctly and preliminary management for defects.

A deposited metal specimen of ER2594 which is a super duplex steel welding wire used to investigate the effect of sigma(${\sigma}$) phase on electrochemical corrosion characteristics was prepared by gas tungsten arc welding. Aging treatment was conducted for the specimen at the temperature range of $700^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ for 5 to 300 minutes after annealing at $1050^{\circ}C$. Corrosion current density has decreased a little with an increase of aging time over 60 minutes at $700^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$ and the uniform corrosion of deposited metal had more influence on the precipitation of ferrite than the precipitation of sigma phase. Therefore, the precipitation of sigma phase did not have much effect on the uniform corrosion. Pitting potential representing pitting corrosion has shown decreasing tendency as the precipitation of sigma phase increased. The degree of sensitization representing intergranular corrosion has shown increasing tendency as the precipitation of sigma phase increased at $700^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$, while it has decreased at $900^{\circ}C$ for 60 to 300 minutes.

The corrosion behavior of super austenitic stainless steel was studied by examining the characteristics of the sigma phase formed in the steel. A range of experimental and analytical methods was employed, including potentiodynamic polarization tests, critical pitting temperature tests, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. Three steel samples with different sigma phase levels were obtained by intentionally adjusting the manufacturing process. The results showed that the corrosion resistance of the samples was strongly dependent upon the size and distribution of the sigma phase precipitated in the samples. The larger the size of the sigma phase, the higher the Mo content in the sigma phase and the higher the depletion level of Mo at the interface between the matrix/sigma phase, the more samples with a coarse-sized sigma phase were susceptible to localized pitting corrosion at the interface. These results suggest that various manufacturing processes, such as welding and the post-heat treatment of the steel, should be optimized so that both the size and fraction of the sigma phase precipitated in the steel are small to improve the resistance to localized corrosion.
