We have studied on welding dissimilar materials of cold-reduced carbon steel sheet and stainless steel sheet together by using laser beam. It is well known that stainless steel is so strong againt rust and heat, while cold-reduced carbon steel is widely used in various parts of industry. In this research we have performed some experiments to know the possibility of welding dissimilar materials using laser beam by adjusting the power output of 3kW laser. Other conditions of the experiments were as follows : the welding speed was varied in the range between 2m/min and 7m/min, argon gas and helium gas were used as shield gas, the flow value of shield gas was ranged between $10{\ell}/min$ and $30{\ell}/min$, and the gap of two materials was ranged between 0mm and 0.3mm. In order to ascertain of the welded surface, we have done the tensile strength testing, the hardness testing and the microscope observation. As a result, we have found that tensile strength was the highest at the condition of the welding speed of 4, the flow value of $20{\ell}/min$, the gap of two materials 0, and the use of helium gas. Above testings have also showed that the tensile strength was generally satisfactory since the penetration of welding was almost complete due to the thinness of the materials. In addition, the formation of the welded area was excellent when it had the highest tensile strength.

Boron steel (51B20) was cold forged using by new designed dies to apply for automotive aluminum wheel nut. The formability and mechanical properties of boron steel were compared with carbon steel(S45C) which has been used up to date for the wheel nut material. The formability was investigated on the dies designed with various types of punch nose using by FEM. The metal flow and compressive stress on the dies during cold forging were investigated and compared each other. The forging process with a new designed die showed the improved metal flow with a reduced forging load which resulted in the significant increase of the die life. It was recommended that the carbon steel for automotive wheel nut material could be substituted by the boron steel.

The resistance spot weldability of surface textured cold-rolled steel sheet was evaluated. One steel sheet(T4.5) showed reduced electrode life with less than 2000 welds, and all other steel sheets(E2.2, E4.5, T2.2) made more than 2500 welds. The carbon imprint test revealed that there is sudden electrode diameter increase around 1700 welds. It is believed that the increased electrode diameter decreased current density, and resulted in decreasing weld electrode life due to small weld button size. It is considered that surface roughness difference may attribute to heating during weld cycle and reduced the weld electrode life.

A pressure vessel consists of an inner tank and the outer tank; the material of the inner tank is austenite stainless steel, and the outer tank is general carbon steel. As the storage amount increase, the size of the inner tank for LNG also increases, which eventually increases the weight of the LNG storage tank. The Cold Stretch method can transport and store the LNG in a larger amount than the conventional pressure container, and the weight of the pressure vessel can also be reduced at 50 70% due to the reduction of the thickness, which is excellent from an economic and energy consumption perspective. Although the Cold Stretch method has these advantages, the domestic situation has not developed any related legislation. In this study, the actual production of pressure vessels using the Cold Stretch method will be processed and the volume expansion after the Cold Stretch will be checked and compared with the mechanical properties.

A sample of ultra low carbon IF steel was processed by six-layer stack accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) and annealed. The ARB was conducted at ambient temperature after deforming the as-received material to a thickness of 0.5 mm by 50% cold rolling. The ARB was performed for a six-layer stacked, i.e. a 3 mm thick sheet, up to 3 cycles (an equivalent strain of ~7.0). In each ARB cycle, the stacked sheets were, first, deformed to 1.5 mm thickness by 50% rolling and then reduced to 0.5 mm thickness, as the starting thickness, by multi-pass rolling without lubrication. The specimen after 3 cycles was then annealed for 0.5 h at various temperatures ranging from 673 to 973 K. The microstructural evolution with the annealing temperature for the 3-cycle ARB processed IF steel was investigated in detail by transmission electron microscopy observation. The ARB processed IF steel exhibited mainly a dislocation cell lamella structure with relatively high dislocation density in which the subgrains were partially observed. The selected area diffraction (SAD) patterns suggested that the misorientation between neighboring cells or subgrains was very small. The thickness of the grains increased in a gradual way up to 873 K, but above 898 K it increased drastically. As a result, the grains came to have an equiaxed morphology at 898 K, in which the width and the thickness of the grains were almost identical. The grain growth occurred actively at temperatures above 923 K.

There are about 2.4million disabled in Korea, 2009. Also, Korean society entered into an aging society. Therefore disable and elderly are getting more involved in our society. This study proposes simple ramp design for wheel chair users and welding method and condition for manufacturing. In the middle of ramp, screw jack and motor are installed so that ramp can be moved left and right side. To make the ramp moves easily, ramp was fixed by installing LM guide on both sides. Ramp production for using Nd:YAG laser certain dissimilar welding in stainless steel sheet and cold reduced carbon steel. The output was fixed by 3kW, the speed was increased to 2~7m/min, Argon was used as shielding gas and the flow rate was changed to 10~30L/min. The proper welding condition is the output 3kW and welding speed 2~5m/min.

프레스금형 제작 시 사용목적에 맞는 적합한 소재선택과 빠른 가공방법에 대한 연구는 금형제작시간을 줄이고 금형원가를 절감하는데 절대적으로 필요한 연구분야이다. 특히 장수명 프레스금형을 개발하기 위해선 열에 대한 고찰이 반드시 이루어져야 한다. 일반적으로 프레스금형의 주요부품 소재로는 Cr, W계 저합금 공구강, 고탄소 고크롬강, 고속도강 등 냉간 금형용 합금공구강이 많이 쓰이고 있다. 프레스금형부품을 가공하는 데는 주로 공작기계와 와이어 컷 방전가공을 사용하고 있다. 가공공정에 따라 금형부품의 가공시간 및 수명이 많은 차이가 난다. 밀링가공과 연삭가공으로 제작된 부품의 경우 제작시간과 비용은 많이 드는데 비해 금형의 수명이 길고 밀링가공과 와이어 컷 방전가공을 사용하면 제작시간과 비용은 절감되는 반면 금형수명은 줄어드는 현상이 나타난다. 따라서 본 연구에선 가공시간과 비용이 절감되는 가공방법으로 열처리를 사용하여 금형의 사용수명을 향상시키는 방법에 대해 고찰하고자 한다. 밀링가공-연삭가공, 밀링가공-와이어 컷 방전가공, 밀링가공-와이어 컷-고온템퍼링, 3가지 가공방법으로 시편을 제작하여 가공표면과 중심부를 SEM, EDS분석 및 표면조도분석으로 문제점을 고찰하였고 밀링가공-와이어 컷 방전가공-고온템퍼링의 가공방법으로 밀링가공-연삭가공과 동일한 금형의 수명을 만드는 방법을 도출하였다.

The Korean Peninsula is located in the middle latitude of the northern hemisphere and has a clear 4-seasons and shows the typical temperate climate. Because of seasonal winds, it is cold and dry by a northwestern wind in the winter and it is hot and humid by a southeast wind in the summer. Also, temperature difference between the winter and the summer is large and it shows a rainy season from June to July but recently this regular trend may be greatly changed by an unusual weather phenomena. Since the Peninsula is east high west low type, the climate is complicated too. Because these geographical and climate characteristics can affect the properties of corrosion of metals and alloys, a systematic research on atmospheric corrosion in the Peninsula is required to understand and control the corrosion behavior of the industrial facilities. This paper analyzed the atmospheric corrosion factors for several environments in the Korean Peninsula and categorized the corrosivity of atmospheric corrosion of metals and alloys on the base of the related ISO standards. Annual pH values of rain showed the range of 4.5~5.5 in Korean Peninsula from 1999 to 2009 and coastal area showed relatively the low pH's rain. Annual $SO_2$ concentrations is reduced with time and its concentrations of every major cities were below the air quality standard, but $NO_2$concentration revealed a steady state and its concentration of Seoul has been over air quality standard. In 2007, $SO_2$classes of each sites were in $P_0{\sim}P_1$, and chloride classes were in $S_0{\sim}S_1$, and TOW classes were in ${\tau}_3{\sim}{\tau}_4$.That is, $SO_2$ and chloride classes were low but TOW class was high in Korean Peninsula. On the base of these environmental classes, corrosivity of carbon steel, zinc, copper, aluminium can be calculated that carbon steel was in C2-C3 classes and it was classified as low-medium, and zinc, copper, and aluminium showed C3 class and it was classified as medium.
