Solid state diffusion bonding is the joining process performed by creep and diffusion, which is accelerated by heating below melting temperature and proper pressing, in vacuum or shielding gas atmosphere. By this process we can obtain sufficient joint which can't be expected from the fusion welding. For Ti-6Al-4V alloy, the optimum solid state diffusion bonding condition and mechanical properties of the joint were found, and micro void morphology at bond interface was observed by SEM. The results of tensile test showed sufficient joint, whose mechanical properties are similar to that of base metal. 850$^{\circ}$C, 3MPa is considered as the optimum bonding condition. Void morphology at interface is long and flat at the initial stage. As the percentage of bonded area increases, however, small and round voids are found. Variation of void shape can be explained as follows. As for the void shrinkage mechanism, at the initial stage, power law creep is the dominant, but diffusion mechanism is dominant when the percentage of bonded area is increased.

Two different types the CANDU fuel bundles hue been modeled for the ASSERT-IV code subchannel analysis. From calculated values of mixture enthalpy and void paction distributions in the fuel bundles, it is found that net buoyancy effect is pronounced in the central region of the DUPIC fuel bundle when compared with the standard CANDU fuel bundle. It is also found that the central region of the DUPIC fuel bundle can be cooled more efficiently than that of the standard fuel bundle. From calculated mixture enthalpy distribution at the exit of fuel channel, it is found that the mixture enthalpy and void fraction can be highest in the peripheral region of the DUPIC fuel bundle. On the other hand, the enthalpy and the void fraction were found to be highest in the central region of the standard CANDU fuel bundle at the exit of the fuel channel. This study shows that the subchannel analysis is very useful assessing thermal behavior of the fuel bundle that could be used in CANDU reactors.

In order to investigate the effect of pre-cooling of ingot on void closure in hot plate forging the internal strain and stress distributions are examined quantitatively by using ABAQUS. Simula-tions are carried out on a large slab ingot having the same temperature and the temperature gradient induced by air-cooling. It is shown that pre-cooling produces little effect on the strain behavior but remarkable effect on the hydrostatic stress at the central zone of ingot. The main factors for crushing micro-voids are the effective strain and the time integral of hydrostatic stress in the region surrounding the voids. Based on regression analysis it was found that the distortion of void can be expressed as a polynomial function of the two factors.

As most fractures of ductile materials in metal forming processes occurred due to the results of evolution of internal damage - void nucleation, growth and coalescence. In this paper, an approximate yield criterion for voided (porous) anisotropic ductile materials is developed. The proposed approximate yield function is based on Gurson's yield function in conjunction with the Hosford's non-quadratic anisotropic yield criterion in order to consider the characteristic of anisotropic properties of matrix material. The associated flow rules are presented and the laws governing void growth with strain are derided. Using the proposed model void growth of an anisotropic sheet under biaxial tensile loading and its effect on sheet metal formability are investigated. The yield surface of voided anisotropic sheet and void growth with strain are predicted and compared with the experimental results.

This study was to predict subcooled void fraction in water under low velocity ($0.03{\sim}0.5m/s$) and low pressure. ($1.53Kg/cm^2$ a) The experiments were done to determine void fraction in a uniformly heated annular test section. Some models from the literature were compared to the experimental results, but none gave consistently good predictions. A method using an empirical factor was developed to predict the void fraction. This model was applied to the test results and found to be good for some ranges of flow velocities.

Sound absorption coefficient is affected by void in sound absorbing materials, therefore it is important to analyze properties of void pore. Also, it can be used to estimate performance of foamed concrete when it is applied to absorb sound. The purpose of this study is to analyze the sound absorption coefficient and void characteristic of foamed concrete using bottom ash. As a result of experiment, it was determined that an increase in sound absorption coefficient is achieved by increasing added amount of foam.

The kinetics of external hydrogen embrittlememt is considered. The equation of the crack growth rate (CGR) is derived from modification of the model developed by Wilkinson and Vitek. After calculation of hydrogen pressure build-up in the void, the effect of the internal hydrogen pressure on the void growth is added. The CGR is expressed by two terms. One is the term dependent on the critical stress, which is exactly same as Wilkinson and Vitek. The other is term dependent on the pressure of the hydrogen in void.

The correlation between shape of electrical trees and partial discharge(PD) pulses in low density polyethylene(LDPE) were discussed. We observed growth feature of electrical tree by using optical microscope. On the basis of experimental results of measurements of trees occurring in the needle-plane arrangement with needle shape void and without needle shape void , statistical quantities are derived, which are relevant to PD pulse amplitude and phase. The PD quantities detected by partial discharge detector. we were analyzed q-n distribution pattern and $\psi$ -q-n distribution pattern. In this experiment, electrical trees in the needle-plane arrangement with needle shape void propagated branch type tree and in the needle-plane arrangement without needle shape void propagated bush type tree

This paper indicate that phase resolved partial discharge patterns are investigated on PET films containing artificial void of varing dimensions. In this study, we measured phase-resolved PD patterns and statistical parameter from PET specimens with IGT(insulation/airgap/insulation) structure by IEC 270 standard. Measurement system is the conventional PD detector using digital signal processing technique. The relationship of diameter and location of artificial void was discussed through the difference of $\pi$-q-n distribution and statistical analysis.

In order to identify the candidates of emission-line galaxies inside the southern Hydra Void, photo-graphic objective-prism observations with the UK Schmidt Telescope were carried out using the Tech-Pan films for five fields. All observed prism plates were scanned with the APM Facility and the scanned data was processed to determine the APM plate parameters and to draw spectra. For all galaxy spectra, the emission features, the distance between emission features of H$\beta$4861, [OIII]${\lambda}{\lambda}$ 4959, 5007 and the overlapping by nearby objects were investigated by eyeballing. A total of 7 candidates of emission-line galaxies inside the Hydra Void were identified.
