압전 세라믹스는 전기에너지와 기계에너지를 상호 전환할 수 있는 성질을 기반으로 엑츄에이터 및 트렌스듀서 등에 사용되는 핵심 소재이다. 결정배향 성장법(TGG)은 다결정 세라믹스의 압전 특성을 획기적으로 향상시킬 수 있는 방법으로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만, TGG 방식을 통해 결정립을 배향하는 과정은 여러 단계의 최적화가 필요하기 때문에 입문자에게는 상당히 도전적인 기술이다. 따라서 이 기고문에서는 입문자의 입장에서 TGG를 가장 쉽게 접근할 수 있도록 납작한 모양의 템플릿을 합성하기 위한 용융염 합성기법 및 실제 결정배향을 위한 Tape Casting 과정 나아가 배향도를 향상시키기 위해 주의할 점에 이르기까지 TGG 전반에 대한 내용을 제공하고자 한다. 본 기고문이 TGG 방법에 대한 이해도를 높이고 활용 및 개선하고자 하는 모든 연구자들에게 정보 및 통찰을 제공할 수 있는 기본 참고서가 되기를 희망한다.

고에너지 Nd-Fe-B 소결자석 제조용 strip-cast 합금의 미세조직 개선을 위하여, Nd-Fe-B 합금을 다양한 조건하에서 strip casting법으로 제조한 후, 제조 조건이 상 형성, 상 분포 및 조직 형성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 냉각속도 즉, wheel speed가 5 m/s 이하일 때 고특성 소결자석 제조에 적합한 미세조직을 갖는 Strip 합금들을 제조할 수 있었으며, 이때의 한계 조성은 Nd$_{14}$Fe$_{79}$B$_{7}$ 정도로 추정되었다. 또한 조성에 상관없이 5 m/s 이하에서는 strip 표면에 수직한 방향으로 <001> preferred orientation이 발생하였는데, 이것은 궁극적으로 합금의 분쇄.성형시 결정립 배향도 향상에 유리하게 작용할 것으로 보인다. 한편 냉각속도가 증가할수록 Nd$_2$Fe$_{14}$B 결정립의 미세화로 인하여 보자력이 증가하였으나, Nd 함량이 감소할 경우 $\alpha$-Fe 정출의 증가로 인하여 보자력이 감소하였다.

This study is to investigate the stress distributions, crystal orientations and magnetic properties during die-upsetting according to working temperature of Nd-Fe-B-Cu alloys. The stress distributions in the specimens during compressing process were calculated by a finite element method program(SPID). The calculated stresses were effective stress (${\sigma}_{eff}$), compression stress(${\sigma}_z$), radial direction stress(${\sigma}_r$) rotational direction stress(${\sigma}_e$) and shear stress(${\tau}_{rz}$). The stress distributions of ${\sigma}_z$, obtained by a computer simulation showed that the stress components causing the magnetic alignment during die-upsetting of the cast magnets were very high at the center-part of a specimen, and decreased toward the periphery-part of a specimen. In view of the above results the magnetic properties should be better at the center-part of a specimen than any other parts. But the measured magnetic properties were better at the mid-part. These results should be due to the fact that the specimens were casted. Normally the magnetic properties are affected by the casting process as well as by the stress levels. ${\sigma}_r$, ${\sigma}_e$ are thought to affect the liquid phase flowing and domain patterns, respectively. The influence of ${\tau}_{rz}$ was trivial, ${\sigma}_{eff}$ distributed similar throughout the specimen. The Nd-rich phase appeared at the peripheral of the specimen where the stress level of ${\sigma}_r$, ${\sigma}_z$, was low or the stress level of ${\sigma}_e$ was high. The Nd-rich phase was squeezed out during die-upsetting. This phase had an effect on the crystal orientation and grain growth. The stress distributions of alloy were irregular at the parts of the specimen where the die contacted with specimen.

분말충진법에 의한 Ag/Bi-2223고온초전도선재의 제조방법 및 제조조건에 따른 임계전류밀도를 조사하였다. 전체공정에서 250시간의 열처리 및 2회의 반봅가공 조건에서 임계전류밀도가 가장 높게 측정되었다. 이와 같은 결과는 250시간의 열처리에서 고온상이 크게 성장되었으며, 2회의 반복가공으로 결정입자들이 일방향으로 잘 배열되는 공정조건임을 알 수 있었다. 공정별로는 pressing방법으로 제조한 시편의 임계전류밀도가 $1.05\times 10^4A/\textrm{cm}^2$로 다른 공정에 비해 가장 높았으며, rolling 공정으로는 $0.78\times 10^4A/\textrm{cm}^2$를 갖는 선재를 제조하였다. 7개 및 49개의 세심을 갖는 다심선재를 제조하여 임계전류밀도를 조사하였다. 7개의 다심선재에서 임계전류밀도값은 pressing방법에서 $0.45 \times 10^{4}A/\textrm{cm}^2$ 였으며, 49개 다심은 rolling방법으로 $0.20 \times 10^{4}A/\textrm{cm}^2$를 갖는 선재를 제조하였다.

0~5 wt%의 $\beta$-Si3N4 whisker를 첨가한 질화규소 가스압 소결체를 제작하였다. 첨가된 whisker들은 tape casting을 응용하여 tape 내에서 일방향으로 배열하였으며, 제작된 tape로부터 절취된 sheet들의 적층 과정을 변화하여 다양한 미세구조를 갖는 성형체를 제작하였다. 가스압 소결을 통하여 치밀화된 소결체의 조대결정립은 성형체의 whisker와 같은 방향성을 가졌으며, 소결수축률과 기계적 특성 등도 이러한 다양한 미세구조상의 특징과 일관된 결과를 나타내었다. Whisker를 일방향으로 배열하였을 경우, 소결수축률은 whisker 배열 방향과 평행한 방향보다 수직한 방향으로 크게 일어났을 때, whisker 함량이 증가함에 따라 수축률의 차이가 증가하였다. Indentationi crack length는 whisker 함량이 증가함에 따라 whisker 배열 방향과 수직한 방향의 균열 길이는 더 짧아졌고, 그와 평행한 방향의 균열 길이는 길어졌다. Whisker 첨가에 의해 결정립이 더 크게 성장하였으나 강도는 whisker를 첨가하지 않을을때보다 낮지 않았다. Whisker 배열 방향을 90$^{\circ}$ 및 45$^{\circ}$ 간격으로 엇갈리게 적층하였을 경우에는 특성의 이방성이 나타나지 않았다.

Hybrid rockets have lately attracted attention as a strong candidate of small, low cost, safe and reliable launch vehicles. A significant topic is that the first commercially sponsored space ship, SpaceShipOne vehicle chose a hybrid rocket. The main factors for the choice were safety of operation, system cost, quick turnaround, and thrust termination. In Japan, five universities including Hokkaido University and three private companies organized "Hybrid Rocket Research Group" from 1998 to 2002. Their main purpose was to downsize the cost and scale of rocket experiments. In 2002, UNISEC (University Space Engineering Consortium) and HASTIC (Hokkaido Aerospace Science and Technology Incubation Center) took over the educational and R&D rocket activities respectively and the research group dissolved. In 2008, JAXA/ISAS and eleven universities formed "Hybrid Rocket Research Working Group" as a subcommittee of the Steering Committee for Space Engineering in ISAS. Their goal is to demonstrate technical feasibility of lowcost and high frequency launches of nano/micro satellites into sun-synchronous orbits. Hybrid rockets use a combination of solid and liquid propellants. Usually the fuel is in a solid phase. A serious problem of hybrid rockets is the low regression rate of the solid fuel. In single port hybrids the low regression rate below 1 mm/s causes large L/D exceeding a hundred and small fuel loading ratio falling below 0.3. Multi-port hybrids are a typical solution to solve this problem. However, this solution is not the mainstream in Japan. Another approach is to use high regression rate fuels. For example, a fuel regression rate of 4 mm/s decreases L/D to around 10 and increases the loading ratio to around 0.75. Liquefying fuels such as paraffins are strong candidates for high regression fuels and subject of active research in Japan too. Nakagawa et al. in Tokai University employed EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) to modify viscosity of paraffin based fuels and investigated the effect of viscosity on regression rates. Wada et al. in Akita University employed LTP (Low melting ThermoPlastic) as another candidate of liquefying fuels and demonstrated high regression rates comparable to paraffin fuels. Hori et al. in JAXA/ISAS employed glycidylazide-poly(ethylene glycol) (GAP-PEG) copolymers as high regression rate fuels and modified the combustion characteristics by changing the PEG mixing ratio. Regression rate improvement by changing internal ballistics is another stream of research. The author proposed a new fuel configuration named "CAMUI" in 1998. CAMUI comes from an abbreviation of "cascaded multistage impinging-jet" meaning the distinctive flow field. A CAMUI type fuel grain consists of several cylindrical fuel blocks with two ports in axial direction. The port alignment shifts 90 degrees with each other to make jets out of ports impinge on the upstream end face of the downstream fuel block, resulting in intense heat transfer to the fuel. Yuasa et al. in Tokyo Metropolitan University employed swirling injection method and improved regression rates more than three times higher. However, regression rate distribution along the axis is not uniform due to the decay of the swirl strength. Aso et al. in Kyushu University employed multi-swirl injection to solve this problem. Combinations of swirling injection and paraffin based fuel have been tried and some results show very high regression rates exceeding ten times of conventional one. High fuel regression rates by new fuel, new internal ballistics, or combination of them require faster fuel-oxidizer mixing to maintain combustion efficiency. Nakagawa et al. succeeded to improve combustion efficiency of a paraffin-based fuel from 77% to 96% by a baffle plate. Another effective approach some researchers are trying is to use an aft-chamber to increase residence time. Better understanding of the new flow fields is necessary to reveal basic mechanisms of regression enhancement. Yuasa et al. visualized the combustion field in a swirling injection type motor. Nakagawa et al. observed boundary layer combustion of wax-based fuels. To understand detailed flow structures in swirling flow type hybrids, Sawada et al. (Tohoku Univ.), Teramoto et al. (Univ. of Tokyo), Shimada et al. (ISAS), and Tsuboi et al. (Kyushu Inst. Tech.) are trying to simulate the flow field numerically. Main challenges are turbulent reaction, stiffness due to low Mach number flow, fuel regression model, and other non-steady phenomena. Oshima et al. in Hokkaido University simulated CAMUI type flow fields and discussed correspondence relation between regression distribution of a burning surface and the vortex structure over the surface.
