To predict residual stresses of aluminum ring rolls after quenching and element removal, 2-D and 3-D thermal elasto-plastic analyses were performed. Strains measured by three step sectioning method were directly compared to those analysed using ABAQUS's element removal. Numerical residual stresses after quenching had similar tendency to measured ones after 2 step aging, but the difference between numerical and measured ones was large. The difference is the reason why there are nonuniform residual stress distributions to ring height direction due to small height of ring, It is judged that the increase of ring height will improve the accuracy of measured ones and decrease the difference. By direct comparison between 3-D numerical strains to simulate three step sectioning method and measured ones, the accuracy of measurement and analysis can be improved. It is concluded that there can be predicted the deformation behavior on machining complex shaped large structures with residual stresses.

Phenomenon of direct contact condensation (DCC) heat transfer between steam and water is characterized by the transport of heat and mass through a moving steam/water interface. Since the DCC heat transfer provides some advantageous features in the viewpoint of enhanced heat transfer, it is widely applied to the diversified industries. This study proposes a simple condensation model on the stable steam jets discharging into a quenching tank with subcooled water from a single horizontal pipe for the prediction of the steam jet shapes. The model was derived from the mass, momentum and energy equations as well as thermal balance equation with condensing characteristics at the steam/water interface for the axi-symmetric coordinates. The extremely large heat transfer rate at the steam/water interface was reflected in the effective thermal conductivity estimated from the previous experimental results. The results were compared with the experimental ones. The predicted steam jet shape(i. e. radius and length) by the model was increasing as the steam mass flux and the pool temperature were increasing, which was similar to the trend observed in the experiment.

Background: The retrospective dosimetry using RTL quartz can be improved by information for an optical sensitivity of sample connected with the equivalent dose determination. Materials and Methods: The quartz sample from a volcanic rock of Japan was used. After correcting the thermal quenching effect, RTL peaks of quartz were separated by the CGCD method cooperated with the general order kinetics. The number of overlapped glow peaks were ascertained by the $T_m-T_{stop}$ method. The optical sensitivity was examined by comparing the change of intensity on RTL glow peaks measured after exposure to light from a solar simulator with various illumination times. Results and Discussion: Seven glow peaks appeared to be overlapped on the RTL glow curve. The general order kinetics model was appropriate to separate glow peaks. After exposure to light from a solar simulator from a few minutes to 416 hr, the signals for peaks P4 and P5 decayed following the form of $f(t)=a_1e^{-{\lambda}1t}$, while the signals for peaks P6 and P7 decayed by the form of $f(t) = a_1e^{-{\lambda}1t}+a_2e^{-{\lambda}2t}+a_3e^{-{\lambda}3t}$. Conclusion: For dosimetric peaks, the times taken to reduce the RTL signal to half of its initial value were 70 sec for the peak P4, 54 s for the peak P5, 9,840 sec for the peak P6 and 26,580 sec for the peak P7, respectively. We conclude that the optical sensitivity of peaks P4, and P5 gives much higher than that of peaks P6 and P7.

The influence of quenching temperature and annealing time on superconducting characteristics has been investigated for a $(Pb_{0.6}V_{0.4})Sr_2(Ca_{0.65}Er_{0.35})Cu_2O_z$ compound. From the resistivity measurements for samples annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ to $860^{\circ}C$ in oxygen and subsequently quenched, it is observed that $T_c$(zero) of the sample decreases with the increase of annealing temperature up to $600^{\circ}C$ and increases again beyond $700^{\circ}C$. Annealings of the sample at $860^{\circ}C$ show that $T_c$(zero) goes through a maximum of 62K with the increase of the annealing time. It is also found that $T_c$(zero) of the sample quenched from high temperature decreases when the sample is subjected to low temperature annealing below. $600^{\circ}C$ in oxygen. The experimental results indicate that the as-prepared samples contain excessive oxygen and removal of this excessive oxygen in as-prepared samples is a key factor in controlling the superconducting properties of the samples and are discussed in connection with thermal gravimetric measurements.

Heat treatment is a controlled heating and cooling process to improve the physical and/or mechanical properties of metal products without changing their shapes. Today finite element method is widely used to simulate lots of manufacturing processes including heat treatment and surface hardening processes, which aims to reduce the number of time- and cost-consuming experimental tryouts. In this study we tried, using this method, to simulate the full carburizing process that consists of carburizing, diffusing and quenching, and to predict the distribution of carbon contents, phase fraction and hardness, thermal deformation and other mechanical characteristics as the results. In the finite element analysis deformation, heat transfer, phase transformation and diffusion effects are taken into consideration. The carburizing process of a lock gear, a part of the car seat recliner, that is manufactured by the fine blanking process is adopted as the analysis model. The numerical results are discussed and partly compared with experimental data. And a combination of process parameters that is expected to give the highest surface hardness is proposed on the basis of this discussion.

Selectively excited photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy has been carried out on the ~1540 nm $^{4}$I$_{13}$ 3/ to $^{4}$I/wub 15/2/ emissions of the multiple Er$^{3+}$ centers observed in Er-implante undoped and Mg-doped GAN at temperatures ranging from 6K to 295K. The temperature dependence of the Er$^{3+}$ PL spectra selectively excited by below -gap light demonstrates different quenching rates for the distinct Er$^{3+}$ centers, and indicates that the PL spectra with the most rapid thermal quenching rats do not contribute to the room temperature, above-p-pumped Er$^{3+}$ spectrum. In addition, selective PL spectroscopy has ben carried out on the Er$^{3+}$ emission in Er-implanted undoped and Mg-doped GaN at temperatures ranging 6K to 295K. The results indicate that the previously reported enhancement of the violet-pumped centers contribution to the low temperature above excited Er$^{3+}$ PL in Mg-doped GaN is also evident at room temperature.temperature.

LuAG:Ce(Lu₃Al₅O₁₂:Ce³⁺) nano phosphor were synthesized by applying the coprecipitation method. It is used to increase the color rendering of phosphor ceramic plate for high power LEDs and laser lighting. Internal quantum efficiency and absorption of LuAG:Ce nano phosphor are 51.5 % and 64.4 %, respectively, which is higher than the previously studied nano phosphors. The maximum absorption wavelength of this phosphor is 450 nm blue light, and the emission wavelength is 510 nm. The emission wavelength shifted to longer wavelength when the concentration of Ce increased in the heat treatment of the reducing atmosphere. Thermal quenching of LuAG nano phosphor was 70 % at 200 ℃, it was explained by their significant quenching of all raman scattering modes, implying the restriction of electron-phonon couplings caused by their defects.

The inherent strain method is known to be very efficient in predicting the deformation of steel plate by line heating. However, in the actual line heating process in shipyard, the rapid quenching changes the phase of steel. In this study, In order to consider additional effects under phase transformation, inherent strain regions were assumed to expand. Also, when calculating inherent strain, material properties of steel in heating and cooling are applied differently considering phase transformation. In this process, a new method which can reflect thermal volume expansion of martensite is suggested.8y the suggested method, it was possible to predict the plate deformations by line heating more precisely.
