The microhardness of rhenium sheets was determined as a function of indentation load and temperature. The temperature dependence of the microhardness between room temperatures and $1000 ^{\circ}C$was studied using a hot microhardness tester equipped with a Vickers indenter. The load dependence of the microhardness was investigated using oth a Vickers and a Knoop indenter. The indentation size effect (ISE) was well explained using the normalized Meyers law. The hardness of the annealed rhenium sheet approached that of the as-rolled sheets at large indentation loads because of work-hardening under the indenter during indentation. The hardness at zero load(obtained from extrapolation of the load dependence of the hardness) suggested that the hardness is controlled by two different mech-anisms having different thermal activation. At low temperature the activation energy for the mechanism controlling the hardness was approximately 0.02 eV , Whereas at higher temperatures that was approximately 0.15eV. The tranisi-tion temperature between the two different controlling mechanisms was about $250^{\circ}C$.

환경문제에 대한 관심으로 자동차에 대한 경량화가 요구되는 동시에 안전규제가 강화 되고 있어, 높은 인장강도를 가지는 고강도 강의 차체 적용 비율이 점차 증가하고 있다. 또한, 자동차 1대를 조립하기 위한 저항 점용접 횟수를 줄이고, 용접부에 충격안정성을 확보하기 위한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 따라서, 국내 자동차 산업에서 용접부의 신뢰성을 보장하기 다양한 비파괴 검사를 적용하고 있으며, 생산 공정에 적용하고 있다. 그중에서 용접 전극 사이에서 동저항(Dynamic resistance, 용접 공정중모재의 저항값의 변화)을 계측하여 용접성을 평가하는 방법이 제시되고, 차체 조립공정 중에 적용하려는 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자동차 차체용 냉간 압연강판(590MPa dual-phase steel)을 인버터 DC 저항 점 용접하여, 용접전극 사이에서 동저항을 측정 하였다. 용접성은 인장전단 강도로 평가하였고, 용접 공정 변수는 용접 전류, 용접 시간, 가압력을 선정하였다. 동저항 그래프의 ${\alpha}$-peak와 ${\beta}$-peak값을 인장전단 강도에 따라 회귀 분석하여, 동저항에 따른 인장전단 강도를 예측하였다. 추가적으로, 용접부의 외관 형상 중에 압흔 깊이와 압흔자국 지름에 대한 회귀분석을 실시하였으며, 용접부 형상에 대한 신뢰성을 부여하였다.

In this paper, authors are trying to find optimum spot weldig conditions to minimize indentation of the plate surface which is crucial to quality of stainless rolling stocks. At first, to derive a simple equation to estimate the depth of indentation, a simplified one-dimensional bar model is proposed and validity of the model is confirmed by experiments. And also, to find proper welding conditions giving satisfied tensile strength of the welded joint, a simple formula is derived referring to the standard spot welding conditions by AWS. Optimization problem is formulated to find welding conditions such as welding current, time and applied force which give minimum indentation and proper tensile strength of joint, and solutions are found out. According to the results, the depth of indentation can be expressed by applied electrode froces and it can be shown that an optimum applied force exists.

It is useful way to make indentations near crack tip in order to increase fatigue life or repair a fatigue crack. In this study, bending fatigue tests were performed to investigate the optimal position of the indentations near crack tip. The results shows that fatigue life of the specimen is dramatically increased by indentation and the most effective location is the back of the crack tip.

This effective way for repairing a fatigue crack is making indetations around fatigue crack tip. In this paper, we performed fatigue test to investigate the optimal position of the indentations, and observed crack opening behavior at the same time. The indentation positions of specimens were on the crack tip, front and back of the crack tip. The results of the experiment showed taht it was veryeffective way to increase fatigue life that making indentations on the crack tip, and it was the optimal position that making indentations on the crack tip.

The Vickers microhardness was measured on the basal (0001) plane of sapphire single crystals in the temperature range from 25$^{\circ}C$to 1000$^{\circ}C$. The substructure surrounding the indents was investigated using selective chemical polishing and etching, optical microscopy, and trasmission electron microscopy (TEM). At room temperature, cracks were predominant, and at intermediate temperatures (400$^{\circ}C$and 600$^{\circ}C$), extensive rhombohedral twinning was observed. On the other hand, at higher temperatures, prism plane slip bands on prism plane {1120}(원문참조) were dominant in the microstructure. TEM observations revealed that the dislocation substructure at the vicinity of the indents consisted of fairly straight dislocations lying in basal and/or prism planes and aligned along the <1100> and <1120> directions. The details of the glide dissociation of perfect <110> screw dislocations into three collinear 1/3<1100> partials on the prism plane and the Peierls potential for sapphire single crystals were discussed.

Recently, resistance spot welding using Inverter DC is applied to improve the weldability of high strength steel for the auto-body fabrication. In this study, inverter DC spot welding machine, which is developed in the domestic, was evaluated weldability of the galvanized and cold rolled dual-phase steel(tensile strength : 590MPa). The welding conditions (welding time, current and force) were decided by tensile-shear test, and welding strength and nugget size were analyzed by statistical analysis methods which involved dynamic resistance and indentation. The results of the statistical analysis was utilized for real-time estimation of the invisible nugget size and tensile strength. Moreover, it can be achieved without the conventional destructive testing of welds.
