Deformation behavior of $Zr_{55}Cu_{30}Al_{10}Ni_5$ (at. %) bulk metallic glass (BMG) fabricated by suction casting method has been investigated at elevated temperatures in this study. The BMG was first verified to have an amorphous structure thru X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). A series of compression tests has consequently been performed in supercooled liquid temperature region to investigate the high temperature deformation behavior. A transition from Newtonian to non-Newtonian flow appeared to take place depending upon both the strain rate and test temperature. A processing map based on a dynamic materials model has been constructed to estimate a feasible forming condition for this BMG alloy.

Damage in film capacitors has been investigated, using FTIR and ESCA, aiming to elucidate the nature of electrode removal and the possibility of base films to be damaged. Also, tests were conducted to investigate the effect of a long-term thermal aging at elevated temperatures. Unsuccessful clearing or grape-clustering processes can induce a long-term degradation which involves the chemical and morphological changes. Major changes are the oxidation and the decrease in surface crystallinity possibly arising from the corona discharge. An immediate deterioration of BOPP film may occur when the air entrapped between the film layers induces an extensive autocatalytic oxidative degradation. This type of immediate damage may result in a premature failure at an early stage of qualification test. As far as the nature of electrode removal is concerned, a permanent removal of electrode materials was observed in the main erosion area.

This study was undertaken to determine tensile properties and low-cycle fatigue behavior of 0.6%C high carbon steel used of structural purposes at temperatures up to 500.deg.C. In the low-cycle fatigue test the upper limit was decided by elongation(i.e. the total strain range), while the lower limit was defined by the load (i.e. zero load). The following results were obtained. Both, the ultimate tensile strength and low-cycle fatigue resistance attain the maximum values near 250.deg.C. Above this temperature the values decrease rapidly as the temperature increases. The low-cycle fatigue resistance decreases whenever there is an increase of the total strain range. Because the hardness of cycle fatigued specimen correlates cyclic hardening and cyclic softening, therefore the hardness of cycle fatigued specimen is smaller than that of the nonfatigued specimen at room temperature and 500.deg.C but much larger than the hardness of the nonfatigued specimen near 250.deg.C.

The current study aims to predict the forming limits considering the deformation characteristics of tailor rolled blank(TRB) during hot stamping. The formability of TRB is affected by the TRB line orientation because elongations change due to the intrinsic geometry within the sheet. To evaluate the forming limits, Nakazima tests were conducted at elevated temperatures with different TRB line orientations. Forming limit diagrams(FLD) of TRB can be predicted by an interpolating equation based on the Nakazima test. Predicted FLDs were used in FE-simulations of a rectangular drawing. The predicted limit drawing height was compared with experimental results. The simulation results show good agreement with the experimental ones with an error range of 3%.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of post-fire-curing on the strength recovery of fire-damaged concrete The 170 specimens have been tested with variables of concrete strengths(20, 30, 40, 50, 60Mpa) exposed to elevated temperatures till $600^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$. After natural cooling, the specimens were subjected to post-fire-curing in water and in a controlled chamber for a total duration of 56days. Unstressed compressive strength was conducted to examine the change in the concrete. The test results indicated that the post-fire-curing results in substantial strength recovery and its extent depend on the method and duration of recuring.

Recently, composites have been widely applied in the sporting goods, automobile, aerospace industry. As the use of advanced composites increase, specific techniques have been developed to repair damaged composite structures. In order to repair the damaged part, it is required that the material in the damaged area be removed first by utilizing the proper method, and prepreg be laid up in the area and cured under vacuum using the vacuum bagging materials. In curing process, either in an oven or autoclave is to be delamination can be occurred in the sound areas during and/or after the exposure to the elevated curing temperature in case that the repair process is repeated. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the degree of degradation of properties of the cured parts and how it affects to the delamination phenomenon between laminated skin and honeycomb core.

This paper reports mechanical behavior of recycled fine aggregate concretes after high temperatures. It is found that compressive strength of recycled fine aggregate concretes decline significantly as the temperature rises. The elastic modulus of recycled fine aggregate concretes decreases with the increase in temperature, and the decrease is much quicker than the decrease in compressive strength. The split tensile strength of recycled fine aggregate concrete decrease as the temperature rises. Through the regression analysis, the relationship of the mechanical behavior with temperature are proposed, including the compressive behavior, elastic modulus and split tensile strength, which are fitting the test data.

Deep drawing of magnesium alloy sheet is conducted at elevated temperatures($200{\sim}300^{\circ}C$) to improve the press formability because of low formability at room temperature. Then magnesium alloy sheet formability is known to be very sensitive to the strain rate. In this paper, we conducted warm deep drawing tests of magnesium alloy AZ31 sheet for various punch velocities. We examined the forming velocity effect on the deep drawing formability and the correlation with the tensile test result.

In the present study, we investigate the effects of long-term heat treatment at elevated temperatures on the mechanical softening of the Mn-Mo-Ni low-alloy steel. The influence of long-term heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical strength was evaluated. To simulate the long-term material degradation, heat treatment test was interrupted at several stages up to 10,000 hours in an electric furnace. The Mn-Mo-Ni low-alloy steel shows a typical bainitic phase, which consists of a well-developed lath substructure with fine precipitates along the lath boundaries. However, these fine precipitates were redissolved into the matrix with long-term heat treatment, and then the lath substructures were recovered. Consequently, ultimate tensile strength and yield strength decreased during long-term heat treatment showing a mechanical softening phenomenon.
