The ring rolling process involves not only three-dimensional non-steady material flow and continuous change of radius and thickness of the ring workpiece but also heat transfer among workpiece, rolls and environment. In this study, deformation and heat transfer analyses were conducted by using the three-dimensional thermo-rigid-plastic finite element method. Three cases of plain ring rolling process were, respectively, simulated for the predictions of roll forces and the highest temperature zone during the aluminum process that ductile fracture often occurs. In addition, to prevent fishtail phenomena of the ring workpiece, axial rolls were used for this study.

The effect of porosity on the crack propagation is studied by using the cohesive zone model. Standard mode I fracture test were done by using compact tension specimens with various porosities. Load-load line displacement curves and ${\delta}_5$-crack resistance curves for various porosities were obtained from experiments. The cohesive zone model proposed by Xu and Needleman was employed to describe the crack propagation in porous media, and the Gurson model is used for constitutive relation of porous materials. These models were implemented into user subroutines of a finite element program ABAQUS. The fracture mode changes from ductile fracture to brittle fracture as the porosity increases. Numerical calculations agree well with experimental results.

This research presents the new method to fabricate small features through applying chemical mechanical micro machining(C3M) for Al5052 and single crystal silicon. To improve machinability of ductile and brittle material, reacted layer was formed on the surface before micro-drilling process by chemical reaction with $HNO_3$(10wt%) and KOH(10wt%). And then workpieces were machined to compare conventional micro-drilling process with newly suggested one. To evaluate whether or not the machinability was improved by the effect of chemical condition, surface defects such as burr, chipping and crack generation were measured. Finally, it is confirmed that C3M is one of the feasible tools for micro machining with the aid of effect of the chemical reaction.

In this study, under large scale yielding conditions crack propagation is found to governed by parameters based on the J-integral or on the crack opening displacement. But initiation of crack propagation of ductile material seems to be controlled by just on parameter that is the strain. The relationship between the critical value of J-integral and the local fracture strain in uniaxial tensile test in the region of maximum reduction in area. Therefore, the fundamental theorectical equation by the proposed elastic-plastic fracture toughness and the local fracture strain has a merit. in comparison with the ASTM method, which can measure by using the load-displacement curve and the specimens in tenslie test.

This paper discusses how steel cord and PVA hybrid fibers enhance the performance of high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (HPRFCC) in terms of elastic limit, strain hardening response and post peak of the composites. The effect of microfiber(PVA) blending ratio is presented. For this purpose flexure, direct tension and split tension tests were conducted. It was found that HFRCC specimen shows multiple cracking in the area subjected to the greatest bending tensile stress. Uniaxial tensile test confirms the range of tensile strain capacity from 0.5 to $1.5\%$ when hybrid fiber is used. The cyclic loading test results identified a unique unloading and reloading response for this ductile composite. Cyclic loading in tension appears not to affect the tensile response of the material if the uniaxial compressive strength during loading is not exceeded.

The AZO/Ag/AZO multilayer films were deposited on polyethersulfone (PES) substrate by using facing target sputtering methods at room temperature. The AZO/Ag/AZO multilayer films with polymer substrate had advantages, such as low sheet resistance, high optical transmittance in visible range and stable mechanical properties. From the results, the AZO/Ag/AZO multilayer films (50/12/50 nm) demonstrated a sheet resistance of 11 ${\Omega}/{\square}$ and average transmittance of 87% in visible range (wavelength of 380-770 nm). Moreover, the multilayer showed stable mechanical properties compared to the single-layered AZO sample during the bending test due to the existence of the ductile Ag metal layer.

Friction stir welding results in low distortion and high joint strength compared with other welding procedures, and is able to join all aluminium alloys that are not considered as virtually weldable with classical liquid state techniques. The comparative study on high cycle fatigue properties between A16005-T6 friction stir welds and MIG weld joints have been performed and fracture mechanisms for the fatigue specimens were investigated. Although mechanical properties are lower than the corresponding base material, FSW joints of A16005-T6 become higher at tensile and fatigue strength in comparison with the traditional fusion weld(MIG). The fracture surfaces of FSW and MIG fatigue specimens cleary show different aspects of the fracture morphology. MIG weldments were characterized by voids and cleavage(brittle fracture) but FSW specimens showed the presence of ductile fracture surface.

This investigation evaluates effects of notch depth, fatigue precrack length and side groove in impact specimen for estimation of a valid K1d by instrumented Charpy impact test. Specimen material is 6005-T6. for notch depth 2.0mm and 2.5mm specimens or within about 2mm fatigue precrack length with notch depth 2.0mm and 2.5mm specimens or within about 2mm fatigue precrack length with notch depth 2.0mm , dynamic fracture toughness [$K_{1d,(1)}$] obtained by crack initiation load($P_m$) should be used. Dynamic fracture toughness of side grooved specimens are overestimated to that of standard impact specimen about 15 %-20%. It is confirmed that the formula of dynamic fracture toughness obtained by impact absorbed energy is inappropriate for ductile materials.

Dynamic crack initiation in ductile steel is investigated by means of impact loaded 3 point bend(PB) specimens. Results from non-viscoplastic and viscoplastic materials are compared. Their materials are applied with various impact velocities and static strain rates. The specimen has the size 320${\times}$750 mm with a thickness of 10 mm. A modified 3PB specimen design with reduced width at the ends has been developed in order to avoid the initial compressive load of the crack tip and also to avoid the uncertain boundary conditions at the impact heads. Numerical simulations are made by using the FEM code ABAQUS. Therefore, their results are plotted by shapes of the von Mises plastic stress and equivalent plastic strain of the specimens applied by various impact velocities.
