다이아몬드 마이크로 블레이드의 절삭 효율을 향상시키고 소결 공정 중 윤활제의 유동성과 젖음성이 다이아몬드 마이크로 블레이드의 물성에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해 Cu/Sn 금속 결합재에 표면을 부식시킨 $WS_2$와 부식을 시키지 않은 $WS_2$ 윤활제를 각각 동일한 체적 분율로 첨가하였다. 윤활제의 표면 개질에 따른 마이크로 블레이드 결합재의 내마모성과 굽힘 강도 시험을 행하였고, 실착 절삭 시험을 위한 마이크로 블레이드 시편을 제작하여 수명 및 효율을 평가하였다. Cu/Sn 금속 결합재 파면에서의 $WS_2$ 입자 방향 분석을 통해 표면 개질 과정을 거친 $WS_2$가 압축소결 공정 중 압축 방향에 수직하게 위치하려는 경향이 크게 나타났으며, 이는 소결체의 강도와 경도를 향상시켰다. 마이크로 블레이드의 절삭 효율 및 수명을 평가하기 위한 실착 절삭 시험 결과, 윤활제 표면 부식처리는 처리하지 않은 경우에 비하여 절삭성능은 비슷하게 관찰되었으나 결합재와의 계면 결함을 줄이므로써 블레이드의 수명을 연장시킬 수 있었다.

높은 주조 품질을 요구받고 있는 대부분의 다이캐스팅업체들은 양산공정을 통해 사용되고있는 용탕의 청정도를 평가하고 모니터링을 해야만 한다. 여러 가지 평가방법들을 사용할 수 있지만 현장에서는 일부 측정방법만이 다이캐스팅에 적용되고 있으며 목적에 맞게 적절하게 사용하여야 한다. 세 가지 가능한 평가 방법인 K-Mold, 기계적물성 평가 및 PoDFA(다공성 디스크 여과 장치) 를 대상으로 소개하고자 한다. 우선, 각 방법들은 서로 사용 목적 목적에 따라 선택될 수 있으며 K-Mold는 현장에서 빠르고 간단하게 적용할 수 있는 방법으로 일정한 규격화된 시편의 파면을 만들고 파단면 관찰을 통해 일정한 크기 이상의 산화물 갯수를 확인하여 용탕의 품질을 관리하는 편리한 평가방법 중 하나다. 기계적 물성 테스트는 용탕 청결도에 대한 정성적, 정량적 정보를 모두 확인할 수 있으며 샘플링 테스트에 적합한 시험법이라 할 수 있다. 또한, PoDFA는 용탕내에 개재물의 종류별 정밀분석과 양에 대한 상대적 비교 분석으로써 현장의 많은 경험을 통하여 데이터 축적하고 분석하는 방법으로 사용방법에 대한 전문교육이 필요하다.

This paper investigates macro- and microscopic fractography performed on fracture specimens from low cycle fatigue (LCF) testings through an Alloy 617 base metal and weldments. The weldment specimens were taken from gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) pad of Alloy 617. The aim of the present study is to investigate the macro- and microscopic aspects of the low cycle fatigue fracture mode and mechanism of Alloy 617 base metal and GTAWed weldment specimens. Fully axial total strain controlled fatigue tests were conducted at room temperature with total strain ranges of 0.6, 0.9, 1.2 and 1.5%. Macroscopic fracture surfaces of Alloy 617 base metal specimens showed a flat type normal to the fatigue loading direction, whereas the GTAWed weldment specimens were of a shear/star type. The fracture surfaces of both the base metal and weldment specimens revealed obvious fatigue striations at the crack propagation regime. In addition, the fatigue crack mechanism of the base metal showed a transgranular normal to fatigue loading direction; however, the GTAWed weldment specimens showed a transgranular at approximately $45^{\circ}$ to the fatigue loading direction.

When using hydrogen gas as an ecofriendly energy sources, it is necessary to conduct a safety assessment and ensure thereliability of the hydrogen pressure vessel against hydrogen embrittlement expected in the steel materials. In this study, by applying the in-situ SP test method, the gas hydrogen embrittlement behaviors in SA372 steel, which is commonly used as a pressurized hydrogen gas storage container, were evaluated. To investigate the hydrogen embrittlement behavior, SP tests at different punch velocities were conducted for specimens with differently fabricated surfaces at atmospheric pressure and under high-pressure hydrogen gas conditions. As a result, the SA372 steel showed significant hydrogen embrittlement under pressurized hydrogen gas conditions. The effect of punch velocity on the hydrogen embrittlement appeared clearly; the lower punch velocity case indicated significant hydrogen embrittlement resulting in lower SP energy. The fractographic morphologies observed after SP test also revealed the hydrogen embrittlement behavior corresponding to the punch velocity adopted. Under this pressurized gas hydrogen test condition, the influence of specimen surface condition on the extent of hydrogen embrittlement could not be determined clearly.

In the accompanying paper, we proposed a real. time volumetric imaging method using a cross array based on receive dynamic focusing and synthetic aperture focusing along lateral and elevational directions, respetively. But synthetic aperture methods using spherical waves are subject to beam spreading with increasing depth due to the wave diffraction phenomenon. Moreover, since the proposed method uses only one element for each transmission, it has a limited transmit power. To overcome these limitations, we propose a new real. time volumetric imaging method using cross arrays based on synthetic aperture technique with linear wave fronts. In the proposed method, linear wave fronts having different angles on the horizontal plane is transmitted successively from all transmit array elements. On receive, by employing the conventional dynamic focusing and synthetic aperture methods along lateral and elevational directions, respectively, ultrasound waves can be focused effectively at all imaging points. Mathematical analysis and computer simulation results show that the proposed method can provide uniform elevational resolution over a large depth of field. Especially, since the new method can construct a volume image with a limited number of transmit receive events using a full transmit aperture, it is suitable for real-time 3D imaging with high transmit power and volume rate.

The three-dimensional structure of detonation wave propagating in a circular tube was investigated using a parallel computational code developed previously. A series of parametric study for a circular tube of a fixed diameter gave the formation mechanism of the detonation cell structures depending on pre-exponential factor, k. The unsteady results in three-dimension showed the mechanisms of two, three and four cell mode of detonation wave front structures. The detonation cell number was increased but cell width and length were decreased with increased pre-exponential factor k. In the all multi-cell mode, the detonation wave structure and smoked-foil records on the wall are made by the moving of transverse waves. The detonation wave front structures have the regular polygon and windmill shapes periodically.

This study was carried out for the purpose of improving driving safety and comfort of the railways quickly becoming popular. To conducted gas pressure welding to ensure the strength safety of continuous welded rail and rotating bending test tensile test was conducted. The element to determine the tensile strength of gas pressure welds at experiments be attributed to more upsetting length than pressure, according to increases of upsetting length, from brittle fracture to ductile fracture was observed. Through the biopsy of the fracture surface, according to the presence of brittle fracture could be evaluated to strength safety. In addition, mechanical strength of gas pressure welding depending on changes in upsetting length was different. Rotary bending test results were obtained to the infinite life according to exhibited higher fatigue limit of 373MPa at upsetting length 25mm.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of surface flaw on the fracture of all-ceramic materials. A feldspathic porce lain of VMK68, a cashable ceramic of IPS-Empress, and an alumina-glass composite of In-Ceram were used. Specimens were prepared as 12$\times$3$\times$1mm in dimensions, and a Vickers-produced indentation crack was made at the center of the tensile surface. Test specimens were immersed in dlstilled water and In oil, which were broken under a crosshead speed of 0.05 mm/min by 3-point bend test at 37$^{\circ}C$. The characteristic patterns of Vickers indentation and fracture surfaces were examined by an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope. The fracture surfaces of the VMK68 and the IPS-Empress showed a median crack pattern at the fracture origin and indicated a tendency to cleavage hackle. The fracture surface of the alumina-glass composite, In-Ceram, showed a Palmqvist crack pattern at the fracture origin and indicated a tendency of toughening by the frictional Interlocking between the microstructurally rough fracture surfaces.

This paper describes a method for a falling weight impact test to estimate the impact energy absorbing characteristics and impact strength of CFRP laminate plates based on considerations of stress wave propagation theory. The absorbed energy of T300 orthotropic composites is higher than that of quasi-isotropic specimen over impact energy 6.8J, but in case of using T700 fiber, much difference does not show. Also, absorbed energy of T300 orthotropic composites, which are composed of the same stacking number and orientation became more than that of T700 fiber specimen; however there was no big difference in case of quasi-isotropic specimens. The delamination areas of the impacted specimen were measured with the ultrasonic C-scanner to find correlation between impact energy and delamination area. The fracture surfaces were observed by using the SEM (scanning electron microscope) through a low-velocity impact test in order to confirm the fracture mechanism.
