Fe-6.5 wt.% Si alloys are widely known to have excellent soft magnetic properties such as high magnetic flux density, low coercivity, and low core loss at high frequency. In this work, disc-shaped preforms are prepared by spark plasma sintering at 1223 K after inert gas atomization of Fe-6.5 wt.% Si powders. Fe-6.5 wt.% Si sheets are rolled by a powder hot-rolling process without cracking, and their microstructure and soft magnetic properties are investigated. The microstructure and magnetic properties (saturation magnetization and core loss) of the hot-rolled Fe-6.5 wt.% Si sheets are examined by scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, vibration sample magnetometry, and AC B-H analysis. The Fe-6.5 wt.% Si sheet rolled at a total reduction ratio of 80% exhibits good soft magnetic properties such as a saturation magnetization of 1.74 T and core loss ($W_{5/1000}$) of 30.7 W/kg. This result is caused by an increase in the electrical resistivity resulting from an increased particle boundary density and the oxide layers between the primary particle boundaries.

An Eulerian finite element method for the analysis of steady state rolling/extrusion of sintered powder metals is presented. Initial guess of the porosity distribution in an Eulerian mesh is obtained from the velocity and scaled pressure field computed by the Consistent Penalty finite element formulations-the standard one and the consistent penalty type one-are invoked for the analysis of strain hardening, dilatant viscoplastic deformation of porous metals. Comparisons of the predicted distributions of porosity to those by a Lagrangian finite element method and by experiments reported in the articles prove the effectiveness and validity of the proposed method.

The manufacturing process of metal membrane made of only metal mesh and both metal mesh and powder with using rolling process have been studied. In the rolling of metal mesh, selected metal meshes were rolled with the reduction ratio of 10%, 20%, and 30%, respectively. Such rolling process resulted in the decrease of mesh pore size through reduction the cross sectional area of mesh and changing the diameter of mesh wires. Also, it enhanced the filtration ratio of rolled mesh which is almost same as the filtration ratio of upper grade unrolled mesh and the reliability of membrane by making pore size distribution become more uniform. In fabricating metal powder layer onto metal mesh, using PVA(polyvinyl alcohol) as a binder of powder, drying the metal powder layer at $100^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, and sintering it at $1,000^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr in vacuum were to be optimum conditions for obtaining good quality of metal powder layer on metal mesh with high pore density but no crack. With additional rolling of metal powder layer on metal mesh with 30% reduction before sintering, metal membrane which filtration ratio is about $0.7{\mu}m$ has been successfully manufactured.

When high temperature superconducting tapes is fabricated using the PIT (Powder In Tube) method, the length of HTS tapes is increased more than 500 ${\sim}$ 1,000 times of initial powder packed billet. On mechanical processing, heterogeneous properties between the ceramic superconducting core and Ag/Ag alloy sheath occur the non-uniformity deformation as like sausaging that deteriorate the critical current properties of HTS tapes. In this study, we investigated the workability of Bi-2223/Ag/Ag alloy sheath tapes fabricated by the PIT method involving a number of different mechanical processes, multi drawing and rolling. In order to obtain the high critical current density and high uniformity of Bi-2223/Ag sheath tapes, the influences of powder packing density, drawing die angle and rolling parameters were studied. We found that the roll diameter is an important variable in the rolling process, as critical current of tapes rolled using 250 mm rolls was higher than that using 150 mm rolls.

Work roll wear in the cold rolling of mild steel strip is strongly affected by rolling materials, rolling conditions and lubrication. The tests were performed to find the effects of rolling materials under the same lubrication conditions. The obtained results are as follfws; 1) The decrease in surface roughness of work roll is more rapid in that case of continuously cast A1-killed steel strip than ingot cast steel strip. In rolling of continuously cast A1-killed steel strip, worn powder rich in A1$\_$2/O$\_$3/sticks to the work roll surface, and so it makes the mirror surface of work roll accelerate. 2) Amount of work roll wear is small in rolling of continuously cast A1-killed strip. 3) In rolling of continously cast A1-killed steel strip, it is necessary to put up the intial surface roughness of work roll in order to prevent work roll slip.

Bi-axially textured Ni tapes were prepared by cold rolling process and powder metallurgy. The Ni powder used in this study was 5 $\mu$m in size and 99.99 % in purity. For densification, the powder compact was sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 6h in 96 % Ar - 4 % $H_{2}$ atmosphere, and the sintered compact was cold rolled with a 5% reduction, and then heat-treated to give it a texture structure. In this paper, we will discuss the effect of the processing variables on development of the cube texture.

Hot rolling of Mg-6Zn-0.6Zr-0.4Ag-0.2Ca-(0, 8 wt%)Li powder was conducted at the temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ by putting the powder into the Cu pipe. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the samples were observed. Mg-6Zn-0.6Zr-0.4Ag-0.2Ca without Li element was consisted of ${\alpha}$ phase and precipitates. The microstructure of the 8 wt%Li containing alloy consisted of two phases (${\alpha}$-Mg phase and ${\beta}$-Li phase). In addition, $Mg_2Zn_3Li$ was formed in 8%Li added Mg-6Zn-0.6Zr-0.4Ag-0.2Ca alloy. By addition of the Li element, the non-basal planes were expanded to the rolling direction, which was different from the based Mg alloy without Li. The tensile strength was gradually decreased from 357.1 MPa to 264 MPa with increasing Li addition from 0% to 8%Li. However, the elongation of the alloys was remarkably increased from 10 % to 21% by addition of the Li element to 8%. It is clearly considered that the non-basal texture and ${\beta}$ phase contribute to the increase of elongation and formability.
