The sublethal temperature (5$^{\circ}$C for 2hr) led the fifth instar larvae of beet armyworm, Spodoprern exigucr (Hiibner), to increase cold tolerance to subzero lethal temperatures ( 'rapid cold hardening' ). The strength of rapid cold hardening was, however, varied among different populations which showed different cold tolerance in response to cold temperatures. To analyse the physiological factors affecting the rapid cold hardening, hernolymph osmolalities. supercooling points, glycerol contents, and cold stress proteins were measured by treating the fifth instar larvae with the sublethal low temperatures. The treated larvae showed increase of hemolymph osmolalities and glycerol contents. Changes of the osmolalities were greater in cold-hardy strains than in cold-susceptible strains. The sublethal temperature also induced them to express the cold-stress proteins (I0 - 20kD) in the hemolymph. but did not to change supercooling points.

A new yield criterion for metal powder compaction based on continuum mechanics has been proposed. It includes three parameters to characterize the geometrical hardening of powder compact and strain hardening of incompressible metal matrix. The elasto-plastic finite element method to describe compaction of metal powders has been formulated using the new yield criterion. The values of parameters in the yield criterion can be determined using cold isostatic pressing(CIP). The finite element method can simulate compaction behavior of various copper powders.

This study presents cyclic stress-strain and tensile test results at room temperature (RT) and 316℃ using cold-worked TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals. By comparing the cyclic hardening/softening behavior and failure cycle of cold-worked materials with those of irradiated austenitic stainless steels, the feasibility of simulating the irradiation effect on cyclic deformation and failure behaviors of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals was investigated. It was found that, in the absence of strain-induced martensite trasformation, cold-working could properly simulate the change in cyclic hardening/softening behavior of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals due to neutron irradiation. It was also recognized that cold-working could adequately simulate the reduction in failure cycles of TP304 stainless steel base and weld metals due to neutron irradition in the low-cycle fatigue region.

In this study, a plastic hardening constitutive equation for steels of polar class vessels at low temperature is proposed. The equation was derived using the experimental data obtained from tensile tests at room and low temperatures. Tensile tests at low temperature are both costly and time consuming because an expensive cold chamber is necessary and it takes too much time to cool down a specimen to set temperature. Using the proposed plastic hardening constitutive equation the plastic hardening characteristics of steels for polar class vessels at low temperature can be easily predicted from the tensile test results at room temperature.

The aim of this study was to develop a Mo and V free low alloy cast steel materials, enabling the significant cost- and time-savings in manufacturing and maintaining the insert of cold pressing die without impairment of the important properties. For this purpose, the effects of Si content on combinations of important properties such as hardness, hardenability, and weldability, and strength were systematically investigated. In order to evaluate the applicability as the insert of cold pressing die, the mechanical properties were measured after spheroidization annealing, quenching and tempering, and flame hardening heat treatments, respectively. After the Q/T and F.H. treatments, the developed 0.8${\sim}$1.6%Si containing Mo and V free low alloy cast steels showed excellent matrix strengthening effect, hardenability, and weldability, fulfilling the industrial criterion of the mechanical properties for automobile cold pressing die insert.

The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of simulating the mechanical properties of irradiatied austenitic stainless steels by cold-working. In this study, the tensile properties, cyclic hardening behaviors and fracture toughness of cold-worked TP316L stainless steel were compared with those of austenitic stainless steels irradiated by neutrons. It showed that cold-working can properly simulate the increase in strength and the decrease in ductility and fracture resistance of austenitic stainless steels by neutron irradiation, even though it could not perfectly simulate the microstructures of irradiated austenitic stainless steels. Also, cold-working can appropriately simulate the hardening behaviors of neutron irradiated austenitic stainless steels under monotonic and cyclic loading conditions.

This paper presents the experimental study on hardening process of high-strength and high-flowable concrete. The experiments were performed to investigate any unfavorable construction situations since the actual concrete placement has been scheduled in cold weather period, so that the high quality concrete construction is convinced to be successfully carried out. The tests were conducted using 600nm and 1000nm height of steel tube to simulate the practical concrete filled steel tube columns according to the following variables as: the categories of chemical admixtures, curing temperatures and curing schemes. The test results were analyzed in terms of hardening speed, internal heat of hydration and history of strength gain. This paper emphasizes the importance of curing schemes on durability and the use of hardening accelerators on strength gain.

In order to improve wear and fatigue resistance of the structural materials, especially cold work roller for 304 stainless steel, an eco-super-finishing and surface hardening treatment using ultrasonic vibration energy was developed and applied to the SKD-ll roller. The eco-super-finishing machine was designed and fabricated by DesignMecha Co, by its own technology. It was observed that the surface roughness, hardness and residual stress were changed from $Ra{\;}={\;}O.25\mu\textrm{m}$, Hv=710 and ${\sigma}$={\;}+400{\;}MPa{\;}to{\;}Ra{\;}={\;}0.165\mu\textrm{m}$, Hv = 1200 and ${\sigma}=-610$ MPa after 20 KHz micro-cold forging, which means almost equal to the 300 % improvement of life-time.

Anisotropic work hardening of cold rolled low carbon steel sheets is studied. The experiments consist of two stage tensile prestraining and tensile tests. At the first prestraining, steel sheets are streteched along the rolling direction by 3% and 6% tensile strains. The second prestrains are at 0${\cric}$, 30${\cric}$, 60${\cric}$to the rolling directions by varying degrees. Tensile tests are performed on the specimens cut from the sheets after the two stage prestraining. A theoretical framework on anisotropic hardening is proposed which includes Hill's quadratic yield function, ziegler's kinematic hardening rule, and Kim and Yin's assumption on the rotation of orthotropy axes. The predicted variations of R-values with second stage tensile strain are compared with the experimental data.

The micro-alloying forging steels have been developed to save energy consumption during forging and subsequent heat treatment stages. The work hardening ability of micro-alloying forging steels is one of major hardening component while it gives severe die damage if the forging process design is poorly set up on the other hand. In the present study, it was tried to characterize three types of micro-alloying forging steels to understand the differences with the conventional low carbon steels used fur cold forging with a spherodizing heat treatment. After forging of a certain forging part with both micro-alloying forging steels and conventional low carbon steel, several mechanical tests were carried out.
