Recently, atomic force microscope(AFM) with suitable tips is being used for nano fabrication/nanometric machining purposes. In this paper, acoustic emission(AE) was introduced to monitor the nanometric machining of brittle materials(silicon) using AFM. In the experiments, AE responses were sampled, as the tip load was linearly increased(ramped load), to investigate the machining characteristics during a continuous movement. By analyzing the experimental results, it can be concluded that measured AE energy is sensitive to changes in the mechanism of material removal including the ductile-brittle transition during the nanometric machining. The critical depth of cut value for the transition is evaluated and discussed.

Structural ceramics such as $Al_2O_3$, SIC, and $Si_3N_4$ are difficult to grind materials because of their high hardness and brittleness. They are normally ground in brittle mode, but it is possible to be ground in ductile mode depending upon the grinding conditions. In this paper an experimental investigation has been carried out to see the relationship between the grinding energy and grinding mode. It has been found that the ductile mode grinding consumes more grinding energy than the brittle mode grinding. Thus, the grinding conditions of the higher specific grinding energy leads to the plastic deformation in the ground surface of workpiece and results in the better surface finish.

This study carried out a series of experiments involving impact tests (Drop weight type & Charpy type with a standard specimen and newly designed I-type specimen), hardness tests, and fracture surface observations of French-made roll shell steel (F), abnormal roll shell steel (M), reheated roll shell steel (R), and S25C steel under heat treatment conditions ($570^{\circ}C$) to analyze the cause and prevent the roll shell steel's brittle fracture and its damage.

This study involved a series of experiments, which included impact tests (drop weight & Charpy) and hardness tests under various heat treatment conditions, followed by fractography observations of Normal Roll Shell steel (NRS), Abnormal Roll Shell steel (ARS), and S25C steel, in order to analyze the cause of brittle fracture and damages in Roll Shell steel. The optimal tempering temperature was characterized for ARS and NRS.

Conventional grinding of BK7 glass will normally result in brittle fracture at the surface, generating severe sub-surface damage and poor surface finish. The precision grinding of BK7 glass in parallel grinding modes has been investigated. Grinding process, maximum chip thickness, ductile/brittle regime, surface roughness and sub-surface damage have been addressed. Special attention has been given to the condition for generating a ductile mode response on the ground surface. Experiments reveal that the level of surface roughness and depth of sub-surface damage vary differently for different condition. This study gives an indication of the strategy to follow to achieve high quality ground surfaces on brittle materials.

이 논문은 전투차량의 주 장갑재료로 사용되는 금속장갑재료의 개발현황 및 방탄성능에 영향을 미치는 조직학적 요인들을 중심으로 방탄성 향상을 위한 요소기술을 살펴보고, 향후 금속장갑재의 발전전망에 대하여 서술하였다. 금속장갑재는 요구되는 방호특성에 따라 사용되는 합금계가 다르지만 강도와 인성을 최적화하여 위협 탄에 대한 관통저항성 및 취성파단에 대한 저항성을 극대화하는 것이 필요하며, 이를 위해서는 금속재료의 방탄조건에서 특정적으로 나타나는 단열전단현상을 이해하고 적절히 제어하는 기술이 요구된다.

구조물의 파괴 거동은 하중의 재하 속도에 따라 달라지는 특성을 보이는데, 이는 재료의 속도 의존성으로부터 비롯된다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 현상은 공학의 여러 분야에서 관심사였지만, 파괴 메커니즘이 명확히 규명되지 않았기 때문에 수치 해석을 통한 연구에는 그 한계점과 어려움이 상존하였다. 본 연구에서는 파괴 거동의 속도 의존성을 이해하고자, 취성재료를 대상으로 입자동역학을 이용한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 직접 인장 시험 시뮬레이션을 위해 노치가 있는 시편을 모델링하고, 취성재료가 갖는 특성을 표현하기 위해 Lennard-Jones 포텐셜을 사용하였다. 6가지의 다른 하중 속도에 따른 균열의 거칠기, 균열의 후퇴와 멈춤, 분기 현상과 같은 동적 파괴 특성을 관찰하였다. 해석 결과를 통해 하중 속도에 따른 파괴 거동의 변화 원인을 에너지 유입-소모율의 개념을 도입하여 설명하고, 재료의 파괴 메커니즘이 갖는 속도 의존성에 대해 이해할 수 있는 단초를 마련하였다. 또한, 기존 실험과의 비교를 통해 실제적인 현상과의 유사성을 밝힘으로써 입자동역학의 공학적 적용 가능성을 제시하였다.

Metallurgical and mechanical experiments were performed to explain unexpected surface cracks encountered in fabricating ground rolled-billet of Fe-Cr-Al alloys at room temperature. The toughness of these alloys containing between 220 and 236 ppm (C+N) has been assessed using notched-bar impact tests. According to our results, with a larger grain size, a higher interstitial content of (C+N) or a smaller size of precipitates, ductile to brittle temperature(DBTT) increased and absorbed energy decreased at room temperature. These results suggest that the surface cracks at room temperature stem from a poor resistance to brittle fracture, due to dislocation movement by the finely dispersed carbides within grains under the condition of higher (C+N) content.

Thermal shock test methods and thermal shock parameters for ceramics were reviewed from the following viewpoints: (1) The test methods should be based on the precise estimation of both temperature and thermal stress distributions in a specimen taking into account the temperature-dependent thermo-mechanical properties; (2) The thermal shock parameters must be defined as a physical property of the materials and described as a function of temperature at the fracture point of the specimen; (3) The relation between the strength and fracture toughness of brittle ceramics under a thermal shock load must be the same as the relation under a mechanical load. In addition, appropriate thermal shock parameters should be defined by the thermal shock strength and thermal shock fracture toughness based on stress and energy criteria, respectively. A constant heat flux method is introduced as a testing technique suitable for estimating these thermal shock parameters directly from the electric power charged.

In this research, the impact behavior of the boundary between MMC-reinforced SiC whisker and Al alloy were studied. It is known that the resultant of the interfacial reaction between SiC whisker and Al alloy has brittle and low toughness property. In this paper, impact behavior of graded MMC & Al alloy shows the interfacial opening at the boundary. Generally this phenomenon is generated by thermal residual stress, brittle interfacial reaction resultant and difference of the deflection. So, these results may be interpreted as a macroscopic method of measuring the interfacial strength between matrix and reinforcement
