A rheology casting technology has some advantages compared with conventional forming processes such as die casting, squeeze casting and hot/cold forming. The liquid segregation is important on mechanical properties of materials using rheology casting. In this study, so, molecular dynamics simulations were performed for the control of liquid segregation. Because the dynamics of fluid flow about nano-scaled materials is completely different from continuum, molecular dynamics simulations were used. The behavior of particles was far from the truth according to boundary conditions in simple flow. But various movement of particles appear at two or more molecular simulations.

First, methods of numerical analysis of gas-particle flows is classified into micro, meso and macro scale approaches based on the concept of multi-scale mechanics. Next, the explanation moves on to discrete particle simulation where motion of individual particles is calculated numerically using the Newtonian equations of motion. The author focuses on the cases where particle-to-particle interaction has significant effects on the phenomena. Concerning the particle-to-particle interaction, two cases are considered: the one is collision-dominated flows and the other is the contact-dominated flows. To treat this interaction mathematically, techniques named DEM(Distinct Element Method) or DSMC (Direct Simulation Monte Carlo) have been developed DEM, which has been developed in the field of soil mechanics, is useful for the contact -dominated flows and DSMC method, developed in molecular gas flows, is for the collision-dominated flows. Combining DEM or DSMC with CFD (computer fluid dynamics), the discrete particle simulation becomes a more practical tool for industrial flows because not only the particle-particle interaction but particle-fluid interaction can be handled. As examples of simulations, various results are shown, such as hopper flows, particle segregation phenomena, particle mixing in a rotating drum, dense phase pneumatic conveying, spouted bed, dense phase fluidized bed, fast circulating fluidized bed and so on.

It was reported that the semi-solid forming process has many advantages over the conventional forming process, such as a long die life, good mechanical properties and energy savings. It is very important, however, to control liquid segregation to gain mechanical property improvement of materials. During forming process, rheology material has complex characteristics, thixotropic behavior. Also, difference of velocity between solid and liquid in the semi-solid state material makes a liquid segregation and specific stress variation. Therefore, it is difficult for a numerical simulation of the rheology process to be performed. General plastic or fluid dynamic analysis is not suitable for the behavior of rheology material. The behavior and stress of solid particle in the rheology material during forging process is affected by viscosity, temperature and solid fraction. In this study, compression experiments of aluminum alloy were performed under each other tool shape which is rectangle shape(square array), rectangle shape(hexagonal array), and free shape tool. In addition, the dynamics behavior compare with Okano equation to power law model which is viscosity equation.

It is reported that semi-solid forming process takes many advantages over the conventional forming process, such as long die lift, good mechanical properties and energy saves. Rheology material has a thixotropic, pseudo-plastic and shear-thinning characteristic. Therefore, general plastic or fluid dynamic analysis is not suitable for the behavior of rheology material. So it is difficult for a numerical simulation of the rheology process to be performed because complicated processes such as the filling to include the state of the free surface and solidification in the phase transformation must be considered. Moreover, it is important to predict the deformation behavior for optimization of net shape forging process with semi-solid materials and to control liquid segregation for mechanical properties of materials. In this study, so, molecular dynamics simulation was performed for the control of liquid segregation in compression experiment as a part of study on analysis of rheology forming process.

Computer Automated Radioactive Particle Tracking (CARPT) technique has been successfully utilized to measure the velocity profiles and mixing parameters in different multiphase flow systems where a single radioactive tracer is used to track the tagged phase. However, many industrial processes use a wide range of particles with different physical properties where solid particles could vary in size, shape and density. For application in such systems, the capability of current single tracer CARPT can be advanced to track more than one particle simultaneously. Tracking multiple particles will thus enable to track the motion of particles of different size shape and density, determine segregation of particles and probing particle interactions. In this work, a newly developed Multiple Radioactive Particle Tracking technique (M-RPT) used to track two different radioactive tracers is demonstrated. The M-RPT electronics was developed that can differentiate between gamma counts obtained from the different radioactive tracers on the basis of their gamma energy peak. The M-RPT technique was validated by tracking two stationary and moving particles (Sc-46 and Co-60) simultaneously. Finally, M-RPT was successfully implemented to track two phases, solid and liquid, simultaneously in three phase slurry bubble column reactors.

Aggregate is cheaper than cement and confers considerable technical advantages on concrete, which has a higher volume stability and better durability than hydrated cement paste alone. and coarse aggregate is the largest particle size out of concrete and is much affect on the fruidity, compaction and non-segregation ability of high flowing concrete. As the compaction, fillingability and shrinkage of high flowing concrete, the volume ratio of coarse aggregate is prescribed by Japanese Architectural Standard Specificateon (JASS 5) : from 0.500 to 0.500㎥/㎥. It is the aim of this study to compare and analysis the fruidity, fillingability and non-segregation of high flosing concrete according to the volume ratio of coarse aggregate of concrete(G/Glim).

Catchments soil erosion, one of the most serious problems in the mountainous environment of the world, consists of a complex phenomenon involving the detachment of individual soil particles from the soil mass and their transport, storage and overland flow of rainfall, and infiltration. Sediment size distribution during erosion processes appear to depend on many factors such as rainfall characteristics, vegetation cover, hydraulic flow, soil properties and slope. This study involved laboratory flume experiments carried out under simulated rainfall in a 3.0 m long ${\times}$ 0.8 m wide ${\times}$ 0.7 m deep flume, set at $17^{\circ}$ slope. Five experimental cases, consisting of twelve experiments using three different sediments with two different rainfall conditions, are reported. The experiments consisted of detailed observations of particle size distribution of the out-flow sediment. Sediment water mixture out-flow hydrograph and sediment mass out-flow rate over time, moisture profiles at different points within the soil domain, and seepage outflow were also reported. Moisture profiles, seepage outflow, and movement of overland flow were clearly found to be controlled by water retention function and hydraulic function of the soil. The difference of grain size distribution of original soil bed and the out-flow sediment was found to be insignificant in the cases of uniform sediment used experiments. However, in the cases of non-uniform sediment used experiments the outflow sediment was found to be coarser than the original soil domain. The results indicated that the sediment transport mechanism is the combination of particle segregation, suspension/saltation and rolling along the travel distance.

In Al-Pb monotectic alloys Pb particles are difficult to uniformly distribute over the Al matrix because of the gravity segregation of pb element. Therefore the effects of centrifugally spray casting process on microstructures and distributions of Pb particle were investigated. As the preform thickened the sine of Pb particle became larger, the amount of porosity became lower and microstructures showed the change from spray-deposition microstructures in the lower part of the preform to spray-casting microstructures in the upper part of it. The size of Pb particles, amount of porosity and splat layer boundaries in hot forged preform showed still less than of as-deposited preform.

본 연구는 보론이 첨가된 저합금강 용접 열영향부에서의 보론 편석 거동 연구를 위해 보론이 10ppm 첨가된 저합금강을 이용하여 다양한 용접 입열량 및 외부 응력에 따른 용접부 CGHAZ의 보론 편석거동을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 Gleeble 시스템을 이용하여 다양한 입열량에 따른 CGHAZ를 열 및 열-응력 사이클을 통하여 재현하였다. 재현된 시편의 미세조직은 OM을 통하여 분석하고, 보론의 편석거동을 SIMS와 PTA 분석법을 통하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 입열량에 따른 보론의 편석 거동은 최초 입열량이 증가함에 따라 보론의 편석이 증가하다가 다시 감소하였는데 이는 비평형 편석 후 고온에서 유지시간이 길어짐에 따라 back diffusion 발생에 따른 영향으로 판단된다. 또한 외부 응력에 의한 보론 편석 거동 분석 결과, 용접 열 사이클 중 작용하는 외부 응력에 의해 결정립계 편석 감소하였는데 이는 외부 응력에 의한 오스테나이트 결정립 크기 감소에 따른 결정립계 증가의 영향으로 판단된다.

Effects of casting Processes and lubricant addition were studied to improve remanence of 31RE-68TM-lB based sintered magnet by using axial pressing process. Strip casting was effective to get the fine and homogeneous microstructure without ${\alpha}$-Fe segregation. The strip cast flake resulted in narrower particle size distribution after jet milling with respect to the conventional cast ingot. During pressing step with a magnetic field, the particle alignment was increased by appropriate addition of liquid lubricant. In this study, it was revealed that narrow particle size distribution and appropriate addition of liquid lubricant were essential to improve the grain alignment and thus the remanence of Nd-Fe-B sintered magnet.
