The hot deformation behavior of Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo(Ti6246) alloy was investigated in both the $\alpha$+$\beta$ and $\beta$-phase fields by conducting compression tests over a strain rate range of $10^{-3}s^{-1}$ to $10^0s^{-1}$. The flow stress was increased with increasing strain rate and decreasing test temperature. The flow curves obtained at temperatures below 90$0^{\circ}C$ exhibited a flow softening. However, in the $\beta$-phase field, above 95$0^{\circ}C$, the flow stress increased monotonically with plastic strain approaching steady state values. Constitutive equations for the dependence of flow stress on strain, strain rate, and temperature were developed through the analysis of the flow curves.

Recently, interest in using Al alloys in ship construction instead of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) has increased because of the advantages of A) alloy ships over FRP ships, including high speed, increased load capacity. and ease of recycling. This paper investigated the mechanical and electrochemical properties of Al alloys in a slow strain rate test under various potential conditions. These results will provide reference data for ship design by determining the optimum protection potential regarding hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking. In general, Al and Al alloys do not corrode on formation of a film that has resistance to corrosion in neutral solutions. In seawater, however, $Cl^-$ ions lead to the formation and destruction of a Passive film. In a potentiostatic experiment. the current density after 1200 sec in the Potential range of $-0.68\~-1.5\;V$ was low. This low current density indicates the protection potential range. Elongation at an applied potential of 0 V was high in this SSRT. However, corrosion protection under these conditions is impossible because the mechanical properties are worse owing to decreased strength resulting from the active dissolution reaction in parallel parts of the specimen. A film composed of $CaCO_3\;and\;Mg(OH)_2$ confers corrosion resistance. However, at potentials below -1.6 V forms non-uniform electrodeposition coating, since there is too little time to form a coating. Therefore, we concluded that the mechanical properties are poor because the effect of hydrogen gas generation exceeds that of electrodeposition. Comparison of the maximum tensile strength, elongation, and time to fracture indicated that the optimum protection potential range was from -1.45 to -0.9 V (SSCE).

Deformation behavior of nickel-rich Ti-51.5at.%Ni single crystals was investigated over a wide range of temperatures(77 to 440K) and strain levels(up to 9%) in compression. These alloys combined superior strength with wide range of pseudoelasticity temperature interval(~200K). The slip deformation in [001] orientation did not occur due to the prevailing slip system, and consequently, exhibited pseudoelastic deformation at temperatures ranging from 77 to 283K and 273 to 440K for the solutionized and over-aged cases, respectively. The critical transformation stress levels were in the range of 800 to 1800MPa for the solutionized case, and 200 to 1000MPa for the over-aged case depending on the temperature and specimen orientation. These stress levels are considerably higher compared to these class of alloys having lower Ni contents. The maximum transformation strains, measured from incremental straining experiments in compression, were lower compared to the phenomenological theory with Type II twinning. A compound twinning model depending on the successive austenite(B2) to intermediate phase(R) to martensite(B19') transformation predicts lower transformation strains compared to the Type II twinning case.

The film-type specimen of poly ethylene terephthalate (PET) was stepwise elongated under tension with various speed range of about 0.5~500 mm/min, and then the necking behavior during its plastic deformation was observed. When elongated at the speed range of about 20~100 mm/min, stress oscillation was apparently occurred in the stress-strain curve. When elongated at the speed range of about 200~500 mm/min, stress oscillation was not did. The transparent/opaque zone and cross-section area in the specimen elongated at the speed of about 50 mm/min were examined using the optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The corrosion characteristic of the specimen elongated at the speed of about 50 mm/min in 3.8 M NaOH alkali solution was examined using the optical microscopy.

The use of thin plate increases due to the need for light weight in large ship. Thin plate is easily distorted and has residual stress by welding heat. Therefore, the thin plate should be carefully joined to minimize the welding deformation which costs time and money for repair. For one effort to reduce welding deformation, it is very useful to predict welding deformation before welding execution. There are two methods to analyze welding deformation. One is simple linear analysis. The other is nonlinear analysis. The simple linear analysis is elastic analysis using the equivalent load method or inherent strain method from welding experiments. The nonlinear analysis is thermo-elastic analysis which gives consideration to the nonlinearity of material dependent on temperature and time, welding current, voltage, speed, sequence and constraint. In this study, the welding deformation is analyzed by using thermo-elastic method for PCTC(Pure Car and Truck Carrier) which carries cars and trucks. PCTC uses thin plates of 6mm thickness which is susceptible to welding heat. The analysis dimension is 19,200mm(length) * 13,825mm(width) * 376mm(height). MARC and MENTAT are used as pre and post processor and solver. The boundary conditions are based on the real situation in shipyard. The simulations contain convection and gravity. The material of the thin block is mild steel with $235N/mm^2$ yield strength. Its nonlinearity of conductivity, specific heat, Young's modulus and yield strength is applied in simulations. Welding is done in two pass. First pass lasts 2,100 second, then it rests for 900 second, then second pass lasts 2,100 second and then it rests for 20,000 second. The displacement at 0 sec is caused by its own weight. It is maximum 19mm at the free side. The welding line expands, shrinks during welding and finally experiences shrinkage. It results in angular distortion of thin block. Final maximum displacement, 17mm occurs around welding line. The maximum residual stress happens at the welding line, where the stress is above the yield strength. Also, the maximum equivalent plastic strain occurs at the welding line. The plastic strain of first pass is more than that of second pass. The flatness of plate in longitudinal direction is calculated in parallel with the direction of girder and compared with deformation standard of ${\pm}15mm$. Calculated value is within the standard range. The flatness of plate in transverse direction is calculated in perpendicular to the direction of girder and compared with deformation standard of ${\pm}6mm$. It satisfies the standard. Buckle of plate is calculated between each longitudinal and compared with the deformation standard. All buckle value is within the standard range of ${\pm}6mm$.

When polyethylene terephthalate(PET) film specimen were stepwise elongated under tension with various speeds of about 0.5~500 mm/min, the necking area, consisted of transparent and opaque bands, was formed during plastic deformation. Stress oscillation was apparently obtained in the stress-strain curve of above specimen. However, stress oscillation was not obtained in the stress-strain curve of annealing specimen. Microstructure was examined dynamically using an optical microscopy and thermal analysis was carried out in a differential scanning calorimeter at a heating rate of 10${\circ}$/min. Also, orientation and crystallization were examined using monochromatic-pinhole technique and elastic modulus was measured by a dynamic mechanical analyzer in the temperature range of -150~70 ${\circ}$ with the frequency of 1 Hz. Transparent PET products were fabricated by use of the PET pellets annealed at 83${\circ}$ for 30 min in an electric furnace.

In the present work, FEM analyses are carried out to investigate the fractures occurred within the structural part in the course of combustion experiment. The loss of structural integrity stems from the localized deformation and the damage induced due to a severe change in the thermal load. Moreover, the two-back stress evolution model is proposed using the Armstrong-Frederick and the Phillips' rules to depict the plastic deformation, and the continuum damage mechanics is also incorporated into the present model. It is noted that the present model is able to formulate a wide range of constitutive description with ease. The numerical results depicts that a severe strain localization and damage evolution can be obtained depending on the dominant back stress.

By using the finite element method, the Oyane's ductile fracture integral I was calculated from the histories of stress and strain according to every element and then the forming limit of hydroforming process could be evaluated. The fracture initiation site and the forming limit for two typical hydroforming processes, tee extrusion and bumper rail under different forming conditions are predicted in this study. For tee extrusion hydroforming process, the pressure level has significant influence on the forming limit. When the expansion area is backed by a supporter and bulged, the process would be more stable and the possibility of bursting failure is reduced. For bumper rail, the ductile fracture integral i is not only affected by the process parameters, but also by the shape of preforming blank. Due to no axial feeding on the end side of the blank, the possibility of cracking in hydroforming of the bumper rail is influenced by the friction condition more strongly than that of the tee extrusion. All the simulation results show reasonable plastic deformation, and the applications of the method could be extended to a wide range of hydroforming processes.

Microstructure and tensile strength of the vacuum brazed stainless steel were investigated in this study. For vacuum brazing of the stainless steel 303 and 304, the BNi-2, 3, 4 and 7 were used as filler metals. Among these filler metals, the BNi-2 showed excellent wettability at $1050^{\circ}C$. Indeed, the brazed stainless steel using the BNi-2 showed the highest tensile strength (483 MPa) among all brazed specimens. This is attributed to degree of interfacial reaction between the filler metal and stainless steel. Brazed stainless steel with BNi-2, 3 filler metals showed almost elastic deformation followed by plastic yielding and strain hardening up to a peak stress. On the other hand, it is likely that the fracture of the brazed specimens with BNi-4, 7 was occurred in elastic range without plastic yielding up to a peak stress.

To predict the stress-strain behavior of the soil more approximately, the concept of the critical state soil mechanics was added to the plasticity increment theory in the bounding surface Plasticity model. This model was constituted with two ellipse and one hyperbola in older to describe the behaviour of the isotropically consolidated soil. Thus, this model is very complicate due to the various parameters used. Therefore, the accurate understanding and skill of the theory is required in order to apply this model to the practical geotechnical problems. In the present paper, the bounding surface shape paraiheter R and A, the mapping center parameter C among various parameters used were varied and the results were numerically analized. Finally, each sensitivity with respect to monotonic and cyclic loading was analized and the range of the value of the each parameter was proposed.
