2매의 금속을 맞대어 그 한 쪽에 접촉면과 평행하게 고주파진동을 가하면 단 시간에 접합된다. 이공정을 초음파 용접이라고 하며 그 물리적인 본질은 아직 불분명 하지만, 첫째로는 강한 마찰에 의해 금속 자유면의 산화물층이 제거되기 때문이라는 점과 둘째로는 마찰에 의해 금속 표면이 강하게 가열되어 이에 따른 연화에 의해 접합 이 된다고 하는 점이다. 그러나 이와 같이 가열된다고 하더라도 가열은 표면부에만 국한되고 다른 부분은 가열되지 않는다. 따라서 초음파용접은 냉간접합이라고도 한다. 또 가압력과 진동에 의한 힘이 동시에 작용하기 때문에 용접할 면을 미리 청정하게 할 필요는 없고 용접전의 단계에서 자연적으로 청정화가 이루어진다고 하는 사실이 간접 적으로 증명되고 있다. 초음파 용접(Ultrasonic welding)의 특징을 요약하면 고상용접 의 일종으로서 용접중에 국부적으로 고주파 진동에너지와 압력을 가하여 용접하는 방법이다. 이 때 모재를 용융시키지 않고 건전한 야금학적 결합부가 얻어진다는 데에 큰 특징이 있다. 또한 초음파용접은 다른 용접법에 비해 경제성이 매우 높고, 초음파 용접에 필요한 출력이 전기아크 용접에 필요한 출력의 5 - 10%로 충분한 경우가 많다. 초음파 용접은 통상의 방법으로는 용접하기 어려운 동종 금속이나 이종 금속의 용접에 널리 사용된다. 이 용접법은 반도체, 미세회로, 전기 접점의 형성에 대한 생산기술 로서 사용되고 있는데 소형 모터, 알루미늄 박의 가공, 알루미늄 합금의 조립 등에 이용되고 있다. 한편 최근에는 자동차, 우주항공산업 분야의 구조제 용접용으로도 채용되고 있다.출함이 바람직하다.분비되는 배설-분비 항원의 자극과 깊은 관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다.넌트 명세서를 대한 XML DTD(Document Type Definition)를 정의하고, HTML 기반 검색 방법과 XML 기반 검색 방법에 대한 컴포넌트 검색 성능을 비교한다.따라 NO 생산 및 세포독성이 증가하였고.

Nuclear power plant steam generator that is one of the main component has several thousands of thin tubes. And the steam generator tube is subject to damage because of the severe operation conditions such as the high temperature and pressure. Therefore periodic inspections are conducted to ensure the integrity of steam generator component. Hanul unit 3 also has been inspected in accordance with in-service inspection program and is scheduled to be replaced for exceeding the plugging rate which was recommended by manufacturer. During the steam generator replacement activity, we found several clustered porosity on inner surface of main feed water pipe. Additionally crack-like indications were found at weld interface between base material and weld of main feed water pipe. This paper describes the field experience and visual testing results for inner surface of main feed water pipes. The destructive test result had shown that these indications were porosities which were caused by manufacturing process not by operation service.

Spot welding widely used in automotive and aerospace industries has made it possible to produce more precise and smaller electric part by robotization and systemization of welding process. The quality of welding depends upon the size of nugget between the overlapped steel plates. Recently, the thickness of the steel plates becomes much thinner and hence, it introduces the smaller size of nugget. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the criterion to evaluate the quality of weld in order to obtain the optimal welding conditions for the better performance. In this paper, a thin steel plates, 0.1mm through 0.3mm thickness, have been spot-welded at different welding conditions and the nugget sizes are examined by defocused scanning microscopy. The relationships between nugget sizes and weldability have been investigated experimentally. The result of ultrasonic technique shows the good agreement with that of the tensile test.

Open rack vaporizer (ORV) has been used in liquefied natural gas (LNG) receiving terminal in order to vaporize LNG into natural gas (NG) by heat exchange with seawater The U-type ORV which had been operated with seawater for 14 years is one of the important utilities of the gas production and the weld part of tube connected with header_ pipe had experienced many corrosion problems. To elucidate the cause of corrosion at weld part of vaporizer tube, corrosion potentials were compared by parts. This study concerns on the measurement of corrosion pit depth using non-destructive method and the evaluation of stress distribution in an aspect of safety with finite element analysis. In order to confirm the reliability of galvanic corrosion between weld parts and base metal, the measurement of corrosion potential by parts was conducted for 20 minutes in 3.5$\%$(wt.) NaCl solution. Many non-destructive methods were tried to measure the remaining thickness of vaporizer tube at fields. For general corrosion, tangential radiography test was confirmed as an effective method. In case of a fine corrosion pit, the shape of corrosion pit was reproduced using surface replication method. From collected data, stress distributions were quantitatively evaluated with 2-dimensional finite element method and the diagnostic evaluation on internal pressure of the U-type vaporizer could be made.

It is well known that fatigue failure occur on welded structures in industrial application due to the repetitive load force. In order to decrease the fatigue failure, we analysed the mechanical properties based on their structural aspect, roll steel (SS 400) welded onto stainless steels (STS 304) by $CO_2$ gas as well as structure roll steel welded onto itself. We compared the hardness, tensile and fatigue properties with two kinds of samples which had no defects on the welding part observed by X-ray topographic analysis. It was recognized that the tensile and fatigue strength of SS 400 welded onto itself by $CO_2$ gas was higher than that of SS 400 welded onto STS 304.

Exertion has been made to develop high-temperature (about $250{\sim}650^{\circ}C$) immersion ultrasonic sensor for the visualization of objects, temperature measurement, dimensional check, or nondestructive testing of welds under liquid sodium. In this study, the feasibility of the ultrasonic sensor taking advantage of a strip waveguide was confirmed by water-experiment. The lowest order of antisymmetric Lamb wave was used in the frequency range with negligible dispersion. This plate wave was excited in the stainless steel strip waveguide of 1.0mm thickness and 13mm width by the comb-structure transducer of 2.3MHz frequency. Its attenuation coefficient was 1.2dB/m in air and 380dB/m in water. The signal to noise ratio of 25dB was obtained from a planar reflector 270mm away from the beam aperture of $13mm{\times}39mm$ size.

A steam generator (boiler) in thermal power plants, consisting of more than 30,000 parts and components, can lead to the plant shutdown with damage to even the small part of the components; esp., like weld failures on boiler tubes. Consequently it is greatly demanded to improve the quality of the weld on the boiler tube for the stable operation of the power plants. Because of the feature of the welding, which is done past by melting the work pieces and adding a filler material that cools to become a strong coalescence, there is a great possibility that weld failures take place. As a result, it is regulated to make a non-destructive testing, like radiography test, to detect defects and flaws in the weld. The current film radiography test provides a lower image quality exceeding 2.0% of a basic quality level for a penetrameter, it is very likely to fail to detect micro defect. As a result, the prevention for the boiler tube failure has not been made effectively. In this study, computed radiography technology has been applied as a digital radiography test to the boiler tube weld, and Se-75 radiation source was used to improve the image quality, instead of Ir-192 source. As a result of this study, it is proven to save the time and cost for test and to enhance the quality level of penetrameter penetrating image, which enables to upgrade the quality of radiography test to the boiler tube weld.

Stainless steel is a popular structural materials for liquid-hydrogen storage containers and piping components for transporting high-temperature fluids because of its superior material properties such as high strength and high corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures. In general, tungsten inert gas (TIG) arc welding is used for bonding stainless steel. However, it is often reported that the thermal fatigue cracks or initial defects in stainless steel after welding decreases the reliability of the material. The objective of this paper is to clarify the characteristics of ultrasonic guided wave propagation in relation to a change in the initial crack length in the welding zone of stainless steel. For this purpose, three specimens with different artificial defects of 5 mm, 10 mm, and 20 mm in stainless steel welds were prepared. By considering the thickness of s stainless steel pipe, special attention was given to both the L(0,1) mode and L(0,2) mode in this study. It was clearly found that the L(0,2) mode was more sensitive to defects than the L(0,1) mode. Based on the results of the L(0,1) and L(0,2) mode analyses, the magnitude ratio of the two modes was more effective than studying each mode when evaluating defects near the welded zone of stainless steel because of its linear relationship with the length of the artificial defect.

FCAW is used mainly in the welding of carbon steel and alloy steel because it can be welded in all positions and can obtain excellent quality at sites with variable working conditions. Recently, many studies in Korea have estimated the fatigue strength, residual stress, and deformation, and to develop a fillet welding process. On the other hand, there have been few studies of the mechanical properties based on the strength, macro and magnetic particle test results for fillet welding. This study shows the following results through fillet welding, macro testing and strength testing using SM490A (solid-structure rolled steel) for thick plates using SS400 (rolled steel) for the upper plate and FCAW. The hardness test, macro test and magnetic particle test were then conducted. The hardness tests showed that all result values were smaller than the KS B 0893 standard values of 350Hv. The macro-test showed that each type of welded part was in a normal organic state and that there were no internal errors, bubbles, or impurities on the front of the welded part. Therefore, there were no concerns about lamination. The magnetic particle examination showed no problems.
