The present study was conducted to estimate the fatigue crack growth rate of the Mo-Ni alloyed ductile cast iron for the influence of austempering temperature and time. The fatigue crack growth rate was affected by retained austenite. Retained austenite volume were higher with the ductile cast irons which were austempered at $360^{\circ}C$ than austempered at $260^{\circ}C$, and the fatigue crack growth rate of the former was lower than that of the latter. Also, the fatigue growth rate of the former was the lowest at austempering for 1 hour and that of the latter was the lowest at austempering for 3 hours.

In the mechanical clutches, the pressure plate is one of the important parts for transferring the power and reducing the vibration. Instead of gray and ductile irons, CGI(Compacted Graphite Cast Iron) is concerned to be the replacement recently. A thermo-mechanical coupled analysis was performed to investigate the behavior of the pressure plate for manual clutches. Thermal and mechanical properties of three kinds of cast irons were obtained from the mechanical experiments and referred other technical reports. The results of FEM analysis, were well match with the experimental ones. In this designated FEM method, temperature distribution, stress distribution and thermal deformation were successfully gained and these results will help to design the pressure plate which was made by cast irons including CGI.

Austempered ductile irons(ADI) are characterized by their relatively high retained austenite content which has a significant effect on mechanical properties and performance, such as ductility, toughness, wear resistance and machinability. Austenitising treatment at $900^{\circ}C$ for $1{\sim}2hours$, and austempering treatment within the temperature range $240{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ on ductile cast iron alloyed with Cu and Mo were carried out, and the effects of retained austenite content on the mechanical properties and wear resistance were investigated. In consequence, the amount of retained austenite was found to be 13.5% at the austempering temperature of $240^{\circ}C$, and was increased 28% at $400^{\circ}C$. Tensile strength and hardness of austempered ductile iron were decreased as the retained austenite content increased, but elongation was increased. The retained austenite content at the austenitising time of 2hours was more than at 1hour. The amounts of rolling wear loss were increased as the retained austenite content increased, and the wear surface was become to be rough.

In this study, we investigated the effect of Sb/RE on the microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast heavy sectioned, over 250mm thickness, ferritic ductile cast iron. Exothermic and thermal insulation material were equipped on the wall of sand cast mold having the dimensions of $250{\times}250{\times}250$ mm. The nominal composition of the molten metal was controlled to be on the eutectic composition and Sb was added about 0, 0.005 and 0.02% respectively. In the center of as-cast ingot without Sb addition, the solidification of chunky graphite was induced by the eutectic reaction that took long time, which caused the decrease of elongation and impact energy. In case that the value of Sb/RE is 0.8, the solidification of chunky graphite could be suppressed and the improvement of nodularity was observed. On the other hand, the excessive addition of Sb suppressed the solidification of chunky graphite but gave rise to the solidification of flake graphite and the increase of pearlite contents. This results in poor elongation and impact energy which is lower than those in the case of no Sb addition.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of silicon and nickel additions that influenced the impact and tensile properties of heavy section as-cast ductile irons for wind mill. Based on the results of the metallographic analysis and the mechanical testing on the 2.0 wt.%Si (LS group) and 2.4 wt.%Si (HS group) ductile irons, which contains 0.0, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 wt.%Ni, respectively, the following conclusions could be obtained. The nickel additions increased the tensile properties, the microhardness of pearlite, and the pearlite fraction of matrix for the specimen with the same silicon content. The mechanical properties of LS group specimen were in the range of the specification for the ductile iron wind mill castings. The LS group specimens showed higher absorbed impact energy at room temperature and $-20^{\circ}C$ than that of the HS group specimens. However, the absorbed impact energy at $-20^{\circ}C$ for the HS group specimens was observed to be sharply decreased under 10 J by addition of the nickel.

This paper is concerned with the improvement of impact and tensile Properties of spheroidal graphite cast iron of the following duplex matricess which were heat treated in the eutectic transformation temperature range (that is, $({\alpha}+{\gamma})$ coexisting range) ; ferrite-martensite, ferrite-bainite and ferrite-pearlite. The absorbed energy and maximum load was measured by recording the load-deflection curve with instrumented Charpy impact testing machine in the temperature range from $+100^{\circ}C$ to $-196^{\circ}C$. It was found the ferrite-bainite duplex matrix showed the highest toughness among the above matrices in the room temperature and the low temperature range. Comparison of this matrix to ferrite-pearlite matrix(that is, as cast) showed a lowering of $27^{\circ}C$ in the nil-ductility transition temperature (NDT) and a lowering of $40^{\circ}C$ in the ductile-brittle transition temperature (TrE), Which seems to result from the finner dimple pattern observed using miorofractography.

다양한 기계가공 결함을 유기한 공칭 외경 100mm의 덕타일 주철관을 대상으로 원거리장 와전류 검사를 수행하였다. 상수도 배수관으로 사용되는 주철관은 제조 단계의 큰 허용 오차 때문에 두께가 일정하지 않고 단면이 비대칭적인 특징을 지니므로, 원거리장 와전류 탐상 신호에는 배관 축방향에 걸친 장범위 잡음이 존재하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 장범위에 걸친 배경잡음을 효과적으로 제거하기 위하여 이동구간 평균법을 응용하였고, 결함의 깊이와 원주방향 정도를 정량적으로 평가하기 위하여 voltage plane 극좌표 (VPPP) 방법을 활용하였다. 이동구간 평균처리로서 신호비를 일차적으로 향상시킨 다음 VPPP 기법을 이용하여 결함신호를 얻은 결과, 결함신호가 VPPP상의 기준점에서 x 축과 이루는 각이 결함 깊이와 직선적인 상관 관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 배관과 동축으로 놓인 탐촉코일을 이용한 원거리장 와전류 검사로서 매설 상수도 배관 내 외부에 존재하는 부식결함을 비파괴 정량평가할 수 있는 기반을 구축하였다.

A series of investigations for Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) castings were carried out by using the specimens with various chemical compositions and heat treatment conditions. The rolling wear characteristics of alloyed austempered ductile irons under an unlubricated dry rolling condition was evaluated by the Amsler type test with 9.09% sliding ratio. Generally, the wear amount was increased with the austempering temperature and decreased when the hardness of the matrix was higher. The alloying elements also influenced the austempering reaction, the microstructure and the mechanical properties. In this study, the mechanical properties (i.e.) ultimate tensile strength (UTS), hardness, elongation) and the wear resistance are analysed to show the relationship between the alloying elements and the austempering temperatures. Mo, Cu and Ni are alloyed individually or in combination. It has been found that when Cu and Ni alloyed individually to a casting, the wear amount is increased than others with elements alloyed in combination. The amount of rolling wear loss was decreased when Mo was alloyed in cast iron, individually or in combination.

Drilling tests were carried out austempered ductile castiron(ADI) to clarify the factors influencing the drilling characteristics of ADI material. The machinability of material was evaluated using high speed steel drill and cobalt contained drill of 6mm diameter. The spheroidal graphite cast iron materials were austenized at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour and then wear was kept at 375$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Austempered ductile cast iron contains a great deal of retaine austenite which contributes to an improvement of impact strength, In this paper, machinability of ADI was investigated by drilling experimentation. The results obtained are as follows: a)Flank wear increases logarithmically with the increases of cutting time. b) Relation of flank wear and cutting force can be appiled to $F_z$ = 925VB + 820 for the cutting suggested condition. c) Drilling hole number of about 2 times can be reduced more step feed than ordinary feed due to the high hardness of ADI material and hardness increasing ascribed to the martensite of retained austenite.
