Three different kinds of substrate used in this study : bare Cu, electroless Ni/Cu substrate with a Nilayer thickness of $5\mu\textrm{m}$, immersion Au/electroless Ni/Cu substrate with the Au and Ni layer of $0.15\mu\textrm{m}$ and $5\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness, respectively. The wettability and interfacial tension between various substrate and Sn-3.5Ag solder were examined as a function of soldering temperature, types of flux. The wettability of Sn-3.5Ag solder increased with soldering temperature and solid content of flux. The wettability of Sn-3.5Ag solder was affected by the substrate metal finish used, i.e., nickel, gold and copper. Intermetallic compound formation between liquid solder and substrate reduced the interfacial energy and decreased wettability.

An experimental study on performance characteristics of an evaporative heat exchanger based on tests for various operating conditions was presented. The heat exchanger maximizes the heat transfer rate per unit volume by applying mini-channels for both the air and coolant flow paths, and minimizes the amount of the coolant by using its latent heat of evaporation. The heat exchanger was manufactured by etching the flow paths, brazing the heat exchange plates, and welding the in/out ports of the media. The basic performance test has confirmed that the heat exchanger met its design requirements, and the results of the map test were analyzed to produce the performance characteristics quantitatively depending on the air inlet temperature, the air flow rate, and the coolant flow rate.

Results of the analysis of the structural behavior of axially loaded nodes in freeform structure were not fully understood due to certain difficulties, including the application of various welding and bolting types. In this study, a node of single layered freeform structure was tested to determine its structural behavior when subjected to axial loads. The tests were classified into node ball tests to evaluate the center of the node subjected to cyclic and monotonic loading. The node part tests were also conducted to evaluate the whole node subjected to monotonic loading. The test showed that the node ball is safe with the tensile force, but the node ball needs to increase its strength with the node loaded compressive force due to the additional bending moment of the node ball's asymmetric form.

Resistance spot welding of TRIP780 steels was investigated to enhance understanding of weld fracture mode after tensile shear testing (TST) and L-shape tensile testing (LTT). The main failure mode for spot welds of TRIP780 steels was partial interfacial fracture (PIF). Although PIF does not satisfy the minimum button diameter (4${\surd}$t) for acceptable welds, it shows enough load carrying capacity of resistance spot welds for advanced high strength steels. In the analysis of displacement controlled L-shape tensile test results, cracks initiated at the notch of the faying surface and propagated through the interface of weldments, and finally, cracks change path into the sheet thickness direction. Use of the ductility ratio and CE analysis suggested that the occurrence of PIF is closely related to high hardness and brittle welds, which are caused by fast cooling rates and high chemical compositions of TRIP steels. Analysis of the hold time and weld time in a welding schedule demonstrated that careful control of the cooling rate and the size of a weld nugget and the HAZ zone can reduce the occurrence of PIF, which leads to sound welds with button fractures (BFs).

Wear and corrosion of the engine parts surrounded with combustion chamber is more serious compared to the other parts of the engine because temperature of the exhaust gas in a combustion chamber is getting higher and higher with increasing of using the heavy oil of low quality. Therefore, an optimum repair weldment as well as an available choice of the base metal for these parts are very important to prolong their lifetime in a economical point of view. It reported that there was an experimental result for repair weldment on the forged steel which would be generally used with piston crown material, however, it is considered that there is no study for the repair weldment on the cast steel of piston crown material. In this study, four types of electrodes such as 1.25Cr-0.5Mo, 0.5Mo Inconel 625 and 718 were welded with SMAW and GTAW methods on the cast steel which would be generally used with piston crown material. And the corrosion properties of weld metal, heat affected zone and base metal were investigated using electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and impedance etc. in 35% $H_2SO_4$ solution. In the cases of Inconel 625, 718, the weld metals and base metals exhibited the best and worst corrosion resistance respectively, however, 1.25Cr-0.5Mo and 0.5Mo indicated that corrosion resistance of the base metal was better than the weld metal. And the weld metal welded with electrodes of Inconel 625 revealed the best corrosion resistance among the electrodes, and Inconel 718 followed the Inconel 625. Hardness relatively also indicated higher value in the weld metal compared to heat affected zone and base metal. In particular, Inconel 718 indicated the highest value of hardness compared to other electrodes in the heat affected zone.

연성회로기판은 일반적으로 절연체를 이루는 폴리이미드와 전도체를 이루는 구리로 구성되어 있다. 폴리이미드는 뛰어난 열적 화학적 안정성, 기계적 특성, 공정성 등의 장점으로 인해 연성회로기판의 절연체로서 제안되었지만 전도체를 이루는 구리와의 접합 특성이 우수하지 않기 때문에 많은 연구가 현재까지 진행되고 있고, 그 결과 연성회로기판의 접합 특성에 많은 개선이 이루어짐과 동시에 다양한 공정 방법이 제안되고 있다. 하지만 고온다습한 환경에서 사용될 경우 폴리이미드의 높은 흡습성과, 구리와 seed layer의 산화 문제로 인해 접합 특성이 저하된다는 단점 또한 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 고온다습한 조건하에서 seed layer가 80Ni/20Cr 합금으로 구성된 연성회로기판의 seed layer의 두께와 시효시간으로 인해 발생하는 접합 신뢰성의 차이를 관찰하였다. 본 연구에서는 두께 $25{\mu}m$의 폴리이미드 위에 각각 100, 200, $300{\AA}$ 두께의 80Ni/20Cr의 합금 조성을 가지는 seed layer를 스퍼터링 공정을 통해 형성한 후 전해도금법을 이용하여 $8{\mu}m$ 두께의 구리 전도층을 형성하였다. 접합 특성 평가를 위해 ICP 규격에 따라 전도층 패턴을 폭 3.2mm, 길이 230mm로 시편을 제작하여 50.8mm/min의 이송 속도로 각 시편당 8회의 $90^{\circ}$ peel test를 실시하였다. 또한 $85^{\circ}C$/85% 항온항습 조건하에서 각각 24, 72, 120, 168시간 동안 시효 처리 후 같은 방법으로 연성회로기판의 접합 특성을 평가하였다. 파면의 형상과 조성을 분석하기 위해 SEM (Scanning electron microscope)과 EDS (Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy)를 사용하였으며, 파면의 조도 측정을 위해 AFM (Atomic force microscope)을 사용하였다. 또한 파면의 잔여물 분석을 위해 EPMA (Energy probe microanalysis)를 사용하였고 계면의 화학적 결합상태를 분석하기 위해 XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)를 통해 파면을 분석하였다.

In the construction of end-plate connections, the end-plate is welded to the end of the beam in a factory and fastened by bolts in the field. This connection is widely used in advanced countries such as European countries and the U.S. Its design and connection details are prescribed in Eurocode 3, AISC LRFD, and FEMA 350. In Korea, the standards for seismic design in KBC 2005 have been reinforced based on IBC 2000 in the U.S., and it is expected that the connection details in the U.S. will be adopted for the establishment of beam-to-column design standards. In the U.S. thick end-plates are used for the connections to prevent beam rupture. The use of the connections in Korea, however, may lead toover-design. In this experimental study, the design standards for the end-plate connections provided by FEMA-350 were analyzed and structural tests for six specimens were conducted with the variables being the shim plate and the connection shape, to provide the best specifications for connections with plastic deformation in the end-plate for use in Korea.

합금원소가 다량 첨가된 고합금강, 스테인리스강, Ni기 초내열합금 등은 용접시 혹은 후열처리 동안 열영향부 (HAZ: heat-affected-zone)에서 결정립계를 따라서 액화균열이 종종 발생한다. 이러한 액화균열은 급속한 가열시 HAZ의 결정립계가 국부적으로 용융되어 액상필름을 형성하고, 냉각시 수축으로 인한 인장구속응력에 의해 필름을 따라서 균열이 발생하여 생성된다. HAZ 결정립계 액화는 탄화물, 황화물, 인화물, 보론계 화합물 등이 급가열시 기지와의 반응에 의해 표피 액상을 형성하는 조성적 액화 (constitutional liquation)에 의한 액상의 결정립계 침투로 설명되거나, 결정립계 자체의 용융점을 상당량 낮추는 보론(B), 인(P), 황(S)등의 편석에 의한 국부적 입계 용융으로 주로 연관 지어 해석한다. HAZ 액화균열은 고온 입계균열 현상이므로, 결정립계의 특성에 따라 크게 영향을 받으며 결정립계 character 설계에 의해 액화균열 저항성을 개선시킬 수 있음을 유추할 수 있다. 한편, 본 연구자들은 최근 Ni기 초내열합금에 있어 입계 serration 현상을 새롭게 발견하였으며, 이론적 접근법을 통해 serration을 위한 특별한 열처리 방법을 개발하였다. 형성된 파형입계는 결정학적인 관점에서 조밀 {111} 입계면을 갖도록 분해 (dissociation)되어 낮은 계면에너지를 갖게 됨을 확인하였으며, 입계형상 변화뿐만 아니라 탄화물 특성변화까지 유도하여 크리프 수명을 기존대비 약 40% 정도 향상시킴을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 직선형 입계 대비 'special boundary'로 간주되는 파형입계가 도입될 경우, 보론 편석 및 HAZ 액화거동에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고자 하였다. SIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometry)를 이용하여 열처리 직후 결정립계 보론편석 정도를 비교하였다. 파형입계 시편의 경우, 일반직선형 시편에 비해 결정립계에 보론편석 저항성이 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 재현 HAZ 열사이클 시험을 통해 미세조직을 정량적으로 분석하였다. 파형입계 시편 및 일반직선형 시편 모두 최고온도 $1060^{\circ}C$이상부터 입계 탄화물이 기지내로 완전 용해되고 입계가 액화되기 시작하였다. 최고온도별로 입계액화비율을 정량적으로 비교한 결과, 파형입계가 직선입계 대비 훨씬 낮음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 때때로 액화된 필름이 입계를 따라 전파되지 않고 부분적으로 단락되어 있음이 관찰되었다. 액화시험 후 투과전자현미경을 이용한 EDS (energy dispersive spectrometry) 분석을 통해 결정립계 액화의 주요원인은 입계 $M_{23}C_6$의 조성적 액화반응 보다는 보론 편석 (원자 및 $M_{23}(CB)_6$)으로 인한 결정립계 국부용융이 더 유력함을 유추할 수 있었다. 따라서 상기 결과로부터 입계구조가 안정되어 계면에너지가 낮은 파형입계가 보론편석에 대한 저항성이 우수하였으며, 이러한 결과는 액화 저항성에 대응되어 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 게다가 파형입계에 액상 필름이 생성되더라도 낮은 계면에너지에 의해 비롯된 상대적으로 낮은 적심성 (wettability)에 의해 필름이 쉽게 전파되지 않음을 'Smith 입계 wetting 이론'을 이용하여 해석할 수 있었다.

The existing underground trenchless methods use reinforcing rod in steel tube to obtain structural stiffness. However, there are some problems such as inconvenience of work and expensive material fee which are resulted from limited working space and reinforcing work. To resolve these problems, a new trenchless method, namely P.S.T method (Prestressed Segment Tunnel Method), is developed which uses joint to connect the steel segment and form erection structure in underground construction. Further, installing strands for prestressing. In order to evaluate the flexural capacity of the P.S.T method structure, experiment was conducted. The parameters considered in the experiment are the span-to-depth ratio, diameter of steel tube at corner, prestressing force and welding of joint. Altogether examining the flexural behavior, the effect of deflection in structure according to different parameters has also been analysised.
