The critical strain energy release rate and the failure mechanisms of glass-carbon epoxy resin hybrid composites are investigated in the temperature range of the ambient temperature to 8$0^{\circ}C$. The direction of laminates and the volume fraction are [(+45, -45, 0, 0) sub(2) ] sub(s), 50%, respectively. The major failure mechanisms of these composites are studied using the scanning electron microscope for the fracture surface. Results are summarized as follows: 1) The critical strain energy release rate shows a maximum at ambient temperature and it tends to decrease as temperature goes up. 2) The critical strain energy release rate increases as the content of glass increases, and especially shows dramatic increase for the high glass fiber content specimens. 3) Major failure mechanisms can be classfied such as localized shear yielding, fiber-matrix debonding, matrix micro-cracking, and fiber pull-out and/or delamination.

If the part of the HTS magnet is exposed to the outside of the cryogenic coolant due to the fluctuation of the height of the cooling liquid or the vapor generation, the uncooled part becomes very unstable. In this paper, the unstable equilibrium temperature distribution of the uncooled part of a superconductor is obtained, and the maximum temperature and energy are calculated as a function of the uncooled length. Similar to the superconductor stability problem, the current sharing model was applied to derive the theoretical formula and calculated by numerical integration. We also applied a jump model, which assumes that joule heat is generated in all of the uncooled segment, and compares it with the current sharing model results. As a result of the analysis, the stable equilibrium state and the critical uncooled length in the jump model are not shown in the current sharing model. The stability of the conductors to external disturbances was discussed based on the obtained temperature distribution, maximum temperature, and energy.

For $VO_{2}$ sensors applicable to temperature measurement by using the nature of semiconductor to metal transition, the crystallinity, microstructure, and temperature vs. resistance characteristics were investigated systematically as a function of the annealing condition. The starting materials, vanadium pentoxide ($V_{2}O_{5}$) powders, were mixed with vehicle to form paste. This paste was screen-printed on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrates and then $VO_{2}$ thick films were heat-treated at $450^{\circ}C$ to $600^{\circ}C$, respectively, for 1 hr in $N_{2}$ gas atmosphere for the reduction. As results of the temperature vs. resistance property measurements, the electrical resistance of the $V_{2}O_{5}$ sensor in phase transition range was decreased by $10^{3.9}$ order. The presented critical temperature sensor could be used in fire-protection and control systems.

The Effects of different melting temperature and holding time in the melting temperature on J$\sub$c/ of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$\sub$x/ based superconducting bulk using MPMG process were investigated. the value of critical current density was the largest at l120$^{\circ}C$, the melting temperature which is appointed to the mid point of (Y$_2$BaCuO$\sub$5/ + Liquid)region. With the melting temperature in which the value of J$\sub$c/ is the largest, J$\sub$c/ was again measured to see whether the holding time at this proper melting temperature has the effect on the critical characteristics. From the result above it was concluded that the melting temperature and holding time were important to improve the J$\sub$c/ and the formation of the Y$_2$BaCuO$\sub$5/. In this paper, the melting temperature obtained was l120$^{\circ}C$ and propel holding time could be obtained as 20 minute and the more holding time was not effective in the J$\sub$c/ improvement as well as the formation of Y$_2$BaCuO$\sub$5/.

In order to measure the superconducting transition temperature, the critical current and the alternating current(AC) loss on short samples of high temperature superconductor, a cryocooler cooled cryostat has been designed and built. Two closed-cycle coolers provide cooling with an ultimate sample temperature below 16K. Temperature regulation is provided by 50W of electrical heater that opposes the cooling power from the cold heads. Temperature control feedback is by means of a cernox temperature sensor co-located with the heaters on the second stage of the cold head. Additional temperature sensors are located on the sample mount(B1), on the CVI cold head(B2) and on the Dakin cold head(B3). AC losses on the sample high temperature superconductor were measured at 30K so that the developed device performance was evaluated. In this paper, the design, fabrication and test results on the cryocooler cooled cryostat are presented.

For various additives doped-$VO_2$ critical temperature sensors using the nature of semiconductor to metal transition, the crystallinity, microstructure, and temperature vs. resistance characteristics were systematically investigated. As a starting material of $VO_2$ sensor, vanadium pentoxide ($V_2O_5$) powders were used, and CaO, SrO, $Bi_2O_3$, $TiO_2$, and PbO dopants were used, respectively. The $V_2O_5$ powders with dopants were mixed with a vehicle to form paste. This paste was silk screen-printed on $Al_2O_3$ substrates and then $V_2O_5$-based thick films were heat-treated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours in $N_2$ gas atmosphere for the reduction to $VO_2$. From X-ray diffraction analysis, $VO_2$ phases for pure $VO_2$, and CaO and SrO-doped $VO_2$ thick films were confirmed and their grain sizes were 0.57 to $0.59{\mu}m$. The on/off resistance ratio of the $VO_2$ sensor in phase transition temperature range was $5.3{\times}10^3$ and that of the 0.5 wt.% CaO-doped $VO_2$ sensor was $5.46{\times}10^3$. The presented critical temperature sensors could be commercialized for fire-protection and control systems.

The thermal fatigue behavior of alumina ceramics was investigated by water quenching method. Single-quench thermal shock tests were performed to decide the critical thermal shock temperature difference ($\Delta$Tc) which was found to be 225$^{\circ}C$ Cyclic thermal shock fatigue tests were performed at temperature diff-erences of 175$^{\circ}C$, 187$^{\circ}C$ and 200$^{\circ}C$ respectively. After cyclic thermal shock fatigue test the distributions of retained strength and crack were observed. Retained strength was measured by four point bending method and crack observation method bydye penetration. In terms of the retained strength distribution the critical number of thermal shock cycles(Nc) were 7 for $\Delta$T=200$^{\circ}C$, 35 for $\Delta$T=187$^{\circ}C$ and 180for $\Delta$T=175$^{\circ}C$ respec-tively. In terms of the crack observation the critical number of thermal shock cycles were 5 for $\Delta$T==200$^{\circ}C$ 20 for $\Delta$T==187$^{\circ}C$ and 150 for $\Delta$T=175$^{\circ}C$ respectively. The difference of Nc investigated by two different methods is due to the formation of the longitudinal cracks which had no effect on the four point bending strength. Therefore the thermal fatigue behavior of alumina ceramics could be more accurately described by the crack observation method than the retained strength measurement method.

The objective of this study was to analyze effects of aging time on property degradation of super austenitic stainless steel of PRE 52.8 and super duplex stainless steel of PRE 48.7. To analyze corrosion properties based on aging time, a critical pitting temperature test was performed in a solution of 6% FeCl₃ + 1% HCl and an anodic polarization test was performed in deaerated 0.5N HCl + 1N NaCl solution at a temperature of 50 ℃. Surface hardness was measured to analyze mechanical properties. It was found that corrosion properties and mechanical properties deteriorated rapidly as aging time increased. Critical pitting temperature had the most effect on critical aging time at which property changes occurred rapidly, followed by pitting potential and hardness. This trend was found to be closely related to the fraction of sigma phase. Rate of sigma phase formation was found to be significantly faster in duplex stainless steel than in austenitic stainless steel.

For large scale applications of high temperature superconductor (HTS) such as transmission cables, motors and generators, long length of flexible HTS conductor is required. Currently, Bi-2223 HTS tape is capable of being fabricated in longer than 100 m length by industrial processes. In this study, we fabricated 100 m 19 filamentary Bi-2223 ($Bi_{1.8}Pb_{0.4}Sr_2Ca_2O_{10+x}$) HTS tape by PIT (Power in Tube) process. Critical current(IC) of this long length tape was measured 18.5 A at 77K, self field. Critical current of 100 m length tape was mainly resulted from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide from the increase of inhomogeneity in oxide layer. Engineering critical current (Je=Ic/total tape cross-section area) that is important factor for practical applications and fabrication cost was measured 2.2 kA/cm2.
