Mullitization of halloysite was examined with special attention to the influence of polytypism and impurities on the phase transformation. The phase transformation sequence in halloysite is identical with those in kaolinite and in dickite. Difference in the phase transformation above $1000^{\circ}C$ in kaolin minerals is attributed to the different crystal structures of metakaolins or the effect of impurities. Growth of mullite crytals in the discordered kaolinte including halloysite or illite occurs at about $100^{\circ}C$ lower temperature. Cristobalite is also hardly produced.

The structural phase transformations of $0.7Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.3PbTiO_3$ (PMN-0.3PT) were studied using high resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD) as a function of temperature and electric field. A phase transformational sequence of cubic (C)${\rightarrow}$tetragonal (T)${\rightarrow}$rhombohedral (R) phase was observed in zero-field-cooled conditions; and a $C{\rightarrow}T{\rightarrow}$monoclinic $(M_C){\rightarrow}$ monoclinic ($M_A$) phase was observed in the field-cooled conditions. The transformation of T to $M_A$ phase was realized through an intermediate $M_C$ phase. The results also represent conclusive and direct evidence of a $M_C$ to $M_A$ phase transformation in field-cooled conditions. Beginning from the zero-field-cooled condition, a $R{\rightarrow}M_A{\rightarrow}M_C{\rightarrow}T$ phase transformational sequence was found with an increasing electric field at a fixed temperature. Upon removal of the field, the $M_A$ phase was stable at room temperature. With increasing the field, the transformation temperature from T to $M_C$ and from $M_C$ to $M_A$ phase decreased, and the phase stability ranges of both T and $M_C$ phases increased. Upon removal of the field, the phase transformation from R to $M_A$ phase was irreversible, but from $M_A$ to $M_C$ was reversible, which means that $M_A$ is the dominant phase under the electric field. In the M phase region, the results confirmed that lattice parameters and tilt angles were weakly temperature dependent over the range of investigated temperatures.

In the Fe-Si system, a mixture of a($Fe_{2}Si_5$) - and ${\epsilon}$(FeSi)-composition powders was sintered and heat-treated subsequently at various temperatures and time to get thermoelectric ${\beta}$-phase($FeSi_2$) compacts. The different transformational sequences depending on the heat treating temperature were found through the investigation into phase transformation and microstructural development. That is, a rapid eutectoid decomposition of ${\alpha}{\to}{\beta}+Si$ occurred together with a accompanying slow reaction between the dispersed Si formed by above decomposition and the preexisted ${\epsilon}$ phase at temperatures below $830^{\circ}C$. The unreacted Si and the micropores formed due to the density change upon the transformation coarsened as heat treating time elapsed. At temperatures above $880^{\circ}C$, however, transformation was proceeded by a peritectoid reaction of ${\alpha}+{\epsilon}{\to}{\beta}$. It took at least 200min. to achieve 90% volume fracion of transformed ${\beta}$ phase, and the growth of micro-pores was also observed in this transformational sequence with prolonged heat treating time.

A symmetrical component decomposition scheme utilizing the characteristics of the asynchronous rotational reference frame transformation is proposed in this paper for the extraction of the positive and negative sequence components of distorted three-phase grid voltages. The undesired frequency component can be removed using a specially designed series coordinate transformation and half-cycle delays, where the delay can be controlled by adjusting the frequency of the rotating reference frame. The extracted symmetrical component can then be compensated based on the applied coordinated transformation. The dynamic response of the proposed algorithm is improved when compared to that of conventional methods. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation and experimental results.

Unbalanced source voltage in the 3-phase power system is decomposed into positive, negative and zero sequence c components. Also, assuming there is no neutral path in the system, the zero sequence component is not shown on the l load side. Therefore, in the unbalanced power system without neutral path. it is possible to provide balanced voltage to t the load side by compensating negative sequence component and also to regulate the voltage amplitude by controlling t the positive sequence component. In addition, the symmetrical components due to voltage unbalance can be effectively d detected on the synchronous reference frame by using dlongleftarrowq transformation. In this paper, an algorithm not only c compensating unbalanced source voltage by canceling the negative sequence component on the synchronous reference f frame but also maintaining load voltages constantly is proposed. Also a novel method for phase angle detection s synchronized by positive sequence component under unbalanced source voltage is suggested and this detected phase a angle is used for d-q transformation. The performances and characteristics of the proposed compensating system are a analyzed by simulation and verified through experimental results.

A phase transformation study on a synthetic amorphous diopside, $(Ca,Mg)SiO_3$has been carried out up to ∼30 GPa, and ∼$1000^{\circ}C$ using a diamond anvil cell and YAG laser heating system, respectively. A starting amorphous material shows a direct transition to cubic $(Ca,Mg)SiO_3$perovskite at high pressure, which contradicts to the crystalline diopside phase transformation sequence disproportionating into mixtures of the orthorhombic$ MgSiO_3$perovskite and the cubic $CaSiO_3$perovskite phases. This discrepancy might be due to the different starting materials as well as the temperature variations at each specific experiment performed. The present phase transfor mation sequence would modify the mineralogical assemblage in the Earth transition region and the lower mantle depending upon the pressure, temperature and the oxygen partial pressure.

Mullitization of kaolinite and dickite was examined with special attention to the influence of polytypism and impurities on the phase transformation. The phase transformation sequence in dickite is identical with that in kaolinite except that cristobalite is crystallized at $50^{\circ}C$ higher temperature in dickite. Difference in phase transformation above $1000^{\circ}C$ in kaolin minerals is attributed to the different crystal structures of metadickite and metakaolinite on the effect of impurities. A part of quartz is transformaed into cristobalite. Spinel-type phase produced in disordered kaolins including illite occurs over a short range of temperatures. Primary mullite is transformed into orthorhombic mullite at higher temperature as well. These results sustain the idea that disintegration of methkaolin and the spinel-type phase supplies extra sillica and promotes the growth of mullite cristobalite.

The transformation sequence of kaolinite to mullite is examined with new electron diffraction data obtained mainly by an energy filtering transmission electron microscope. Kaolinite is transformed finally into mullite and cristobalite through several steps of continuous reactions by heating, which result in metakaolinite, microcrystalline spinel-type phase and amorphous silica. Metakaolinite maintains a short-range order in its structure ven at $920^{\circ}C$. Spinel phase results from a topotactictransformation of metakaolinite apart from the breakdown of metakaolinite structure. the first strong exothermic peak on DTA curve is mainly due to the extraction of amorphous silica from metakaolinite and the gradual nucleation of mullite. Metakaolinite decomposes around$ 940^{\circ}C$ to mullite that doesn't show a clear crystallographic relationship to the parent metakaolinite structure. However, spinel phase produced previously is maintained. The initially formed spinel and mullite phases are suggested to be Al-rich, but progressively gain Si in their structures at higher temperatures. Spinel phase decomposes completely through a second weak exothermic reaction promoting the growth of mullite, and crystallization of amorphous silica to cristobalite.

Recently, various studies have been conducted on additive manufacturing technology developed using metal materials. In this study, a numerical analysis was introduced to analyze the effects of the thermal deformation and residual stress which arise during the SLM (selective laser melting) manufacturing process. A phase-transformation mechanism is implemented with the use of the Ti-6Al-4V material, in which a solid-state phase transformation (SSPT) can be induced during a numerical analysis. In this case, the phase of the Ti-6Al-4V material changes from a powder to a solid state and then to the Martensite phase in sequence during heating and cooling steps. The numerical analysis during the SLM process was verified by comparing the results of tensile tests with those from the numerical analysis based on the SSPT material properties.

Transformation behavior and superelastic behavior of Ti-Ni-Cu alloys with various Cu content has been investigated by means of electrical resistivity measurement, X-ray diffraction, tensile test and transmission electron microscopy. Two types of heat treatment are given to the specimens: i) Solutions treatment. ii) thermo-mechanical treatment. The transformation sequence in solution treated Ti-Ni-Cu Alloys substituted by Cu for Ni up to 5at.% occurs to $B2{\rightleftarrows}B19^{\prime}$ and it proceeds in two stages by addition of 10at.%Cu, i. e, $B2{\rightleftarrows}B19{\rightleftarrows}B19^{\prime}$. Also, it has been found that Ti-30Ni-20Cu alloy transformed in one stage : $B2{\rightleftarrows}B19$. The thermo-mechanically treated Ti-47Ni-3Cu alloy transformed in two stages: B2${\rightleftarrows}$rhomboheral phase${\rightleftarrows}B19^{\prime}$, while transformation sequence in Ti-45Ni-5Cu and Ti-40Ni-10Cu alloy transformed as same as solution treated specimens. The critical stress for inducing slip deformation in solution treated and thermo-mechanically treated Ti-40Ni-10Cu alloy is about 90MPa and 320Mpa respectively.
