Fluid cooling is one of the manufacturing processes used to control mechanical properties, and is recently used for hot stamping of automobile parts. The formed part at room temperature is heated and then cooled rapidly using various fluids in order to obtain better mechanical properties. The formed part may undergo excessive thermal deformation during rapid cooling. In order to predict the thermal deformation during fluid cooling, a coupled simulation of different fields is needed. In this study, cooling simulation of boron steel square sheet was performed. Material properties for the simulation were calculated from JMatPro, and three convection heat transfer coefficients such as water, oil and air were obtained from the experiments. It was found that the thermal deformation increased when the difference of cooling rate of sheet face increased, and the thermal deformation increased when the thickness of sheet decreased.

In response to growing environmental and collision-safety concerns, the automotive industry has gradually used high-strength and ultla-high-strength steels to reduce the weight of automobiles. In order to overcome inherent process disadvantages of these materials such as poor formability and high springback at room temperature, hot forming has recently been developed and adopted to produce some important structural parts in automobiles. This method enables manufacturing of components with complex geometric shapes with minimal springback. In addition, a quenching process may enhance the material strength by more than two times. This paper investigates mechanical and forming characteristics of high-strength boron-alloyed steel with hot forming, in terms of hardness, microstructure, residual stress, and springback. In order to compare with experimental results, a finite element analysis of hot forming process coupled with phase transformation and heat transfer was carried out using DEFORM-3D V6.1 and also, to predict high temperature mechanical properties and flow curves for different phases, a material properties modeler, JMatPro was used.

The purpose of this study is to enhance the hardenability and the mechanical properties by the addition of alloying elements such as Ni, Cr, Mo and B for the development of Cr-Mo plastic mold steel with uniform hardness and microstructure. The ingots were prepared by vacuum induction melting and forged to ${\Phi}35mm$ round bar. Forged bars were quenched and tempered at $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hour. Jominy test, boron distribution observation, microstructual observation, tensile test and charpy impact test were conducted. It was confirmed that the hardenablity of these steels was improved by increasing of alloying elements and further promoted by the addition of boron. The critical rate of cooling required to obtain the bainitic structure for 0.27C-1.23Cr-0.28Mo-B steel was $0.5^{\circ}C/sec$. Hardness and strength of Cr-Mo steels decreased with increasing tempering temperature, but elongation and reduction of area increased with increasing tempering temperature. However, impact energy tempered at $400^{\circ}C$ showed the lowest value in the range $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ due to the temper embrittlement.

본 연구는 방사선 차폐 시 주로 사용되고 있는 콘크리트를 대상으로 차폐 두께를 계산한 연구로서 의료용 선형가속기를 차폐하기 위해 구성되는 벽에 대한 연구이다. 선형가속기에서 발생하는 광자선 에너지 10 MV를 대상으로 MCNPX(Ver.2.5.0)를 이용하여 적절한 차폐 두께를 계산하고자 하였다. 그 결과, 광자선 차폐를 위한 십가층은 순수 콘크리트의 경우 50~100 cm, Boron+polyethylene 첨가 시 80~100 cm에서 형성되었다. 중성자 차폐는 순수 콘크리트의 경우 100~140 cm, Boron+polyethylene 첨가 시 90~100 cm으로 계산되었다. 이를 바탕으로 분석하면, 콘크리트 재질은 Steel 계열을 사용하고 콘크리트에 Boron+polyethylene을 첨가하여 구성하는 것이 가장 효율적인 것으로 판단된다.

Newly developed Atom Probe Tomography (APT) technique can provide the highest available spatial resolution, 3D tomography imaging and quantitative chemical analysis in a sub-nm scale. As a complementary technique to APT, Nano-secondary ion Mass Spectroscopy (SIMS) also provides the boron distribution in micro-scale. Therefore, the exact behavior of boron at either grain boundary or grain interior in steels can be investigated by the combination of APT and SIMS techniques from the sub-nanometer scale to the micrometer scale. The results obtained by both APT and SIMS revealed that the boron atoms were mainly segregated to the grain boundaries rather than to the grain interior in the steels containing 50ppm and 100ppm boron. It also found that carbon atoms were segregated at the boron enriched regions, which were thought to be retained austenite phase due to the chemical composition of carbon atoms.

The hot press farming process, which is the press hardening of steel parts using cold dies, can utilize both ease of shaping and high strength due to the hardening effect of rapid quenching during the pressing. In this study, a thermo-elastoplastic analysis of the hot press forming process using the finite element method was performed in order to investigate the deformation behavior and temperature history during the process and the mechanical properties of the pressed parts.

In fabrication of various welded structures made of high strength steels, the occurence of hydrogen assisted cracking and embrittlement in HAZ is prime importance. The present work was carried out to clarify the effect of chemical compositions, especially B and/or Ti addition on the cold cracking susceptibility and HAZ embrittlement in low crabon equivalent steel. Tests results showed that the addtio of optimum boron content in steel with low Pem value i.e., below 0.20 % was the best way to improve the weldability as well as the mechanicla properties of $60kg/mm^2$ grade quenched and tempered high strength steels.

The weldability and joint performance were evaluated for newly developed 60kg/mm$\^$2/ steel which had low cold cracking susceptibility. The main results obtained were as follows; In case of quenched and tempered 60kg/mm$\^$2/ steels, it was very effective to improve weldability and joint performance by lowering carbon and Pcm level. Very small addition of about 0.001 to 0.002wt% boron exhibited an appreciable compensation effect on strength which was decreased by lowering carbon and Pcm level. As a result, the newly developed steel was able to be welded without preheating and exhibited superior joint performance to conventional steels.
