The influence of reversed austenite on the damping capacity in austenitic stainless steel with two phase of martensite and reversed austenite was investigated. The two phases of deformation induced martensite and reversed austenite was obtained by an reverse annealing treatment at $500^{\circ}C{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ for various time after 70% cold rolling. With an increase of the reverse annealing treatment temperature and time, volume fraction of reversed austenite was rapidly increased. With an increase of volume fraction of reveresd austenite, damping capacity was rapidly increased. At same volume of reveresd austenite, damping capacity of reversed austenite obtained by reverse annealing treatment at $700^{\circ}C$ for various time was higher then reveresd austenite obtained by reverse annealing treatment at $500^{\circ}C{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ for 10min. Thus, the damping capacity was affected greatly by reversed austenite obtained by annealing treatment at $700^{\circ}C$ for various time.

Austenitic stainless steels have excellent corrosion resistance, durability and fire resistance. Especially, since STS304L among austenitic types is a low-carbon variation of STS304 and has excellent intergranular corrosion resistance, it can often be used under the welded condition without heat treatment after field welding. This paper investigated ultimate behaviors such as ultimate strength and weld metal fracture mechanism of STS304L fillet-welded connections with TIG(tungsten inert gas) welding through test results. Main variables of specimens are weld length and welding direction against loading. Fracture of specimens are classified into three modes(tensile fracture, shear fracture and block shear fracture). Ultimate strengths were compared according to the welding direction and weld length and TFW series with transverse fillet weld had the highest strength compared with other types(LFW series with longitudinal fillet weld and FW series with all round weld). It is known that current design specifications such as KBC 2016 and AISC2010 underestimated the strength of TFW and LFW specimens and provided unconservative estimates for FW specimens. Finally, strength equations were proposed considering material properties of STS 304L material.

Duplex stainless steel finds increasing use as an alternative to austenitic stainless steel, particularly where chloride or sulphide stress corrosion cracking is of primary concern, due to the excellent combination of strength and corrosion resistance. During welding, duplex stainless steel does not create the same magnitude or distribution of weld-induced residual stresses as those in welded austenitic stainless steel due to the different physical and mechanical properties between them. In this work, an experimental study on the residual stresses in butt-welded duplex stainless steel is performed utilizing the layering technique to investigate the characteristics of residual stresses in the weldment.

Concept of primary solidification mode control was adopted to obtain optimal solidification crack resistance, hot ductility, corrosion resistance and toughness for austenitic stainless steel. By controlling primary solidification phase as primary $\delta$ and containing no ferrite at room temperature, optimal solidification crack resistance, hot ductility, corrosion resistance and cryogenic toughness could be obtained. The optimum chemical composition of austenitic stainless steel ranges 1.46~1.55(Creq/Nieq ratio) calculated by Schaeffler's equation.

마찰교반접합 (Friction Stir Welding)은 1991년 영국 TWI에서 개발된 접합 법으로서 회전하는 툴이 재료내부에 삽입되면 툴과 재료사이에서 발생하는 마찰열에 의하여 온도가 상승하게 되어 재료는 연화되고, 이러한 재료 내부에서 회전하는 툴이 이동하게 되면 재료 내부는 기계적 교반에 의해 소성변형이 일어남과 동시에 접합이 이루어진다. 마찰교반접합은 동적 재결정에 의한 접합부의 미세한 결정립 형성으로 인하여 기계적 특성이 향상되며 보호 가스가 필요 없어 친환경적임과 동시에 용융 용접 법에 비해 접합 시 에너지 소모가 적으며 또한 접합 후 접합부에서의 변형이 상대적으로 적다는 장점이 있다. 이러한 장점을 가진 마찰교반접합은 알루미늄 합금, 마그네슘 합금 그리고 동 합금과 같은 저 융점 비철재료에 많은 연구와 적용 사례들이 있어왔다. 하지만 최근에는 일반 탄소강, 연강, 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강, 니켈 합금, 티타늄 합금과 같은 고융점 재료에도 연구 및 적용이 진행되고 있는 추세이다. 페라이트계 스테인리스강은 가격이 비싼 Ni을 함유하지 않아 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강에 비하여 강재의 가격은 낮으면서도 고온특성 및 내식성이 우수하여 건축용, 자동차 배기계용으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이런 장점을 가진 페라이트계 스테인리스강을 기존의 용융 용접 법으로 접합 시 용접부 및 열영향부에서의 결정립의 조대화로 인한 인성 및 연성이 저하되며, 특히 예민화된 열영향부 입계 내에 Cr 탄화물이 석출되어 입계주변에 Cr 결핍 층을 형성되어 입계부식이 발생되는 문제점이 발생된다. 본 연구에서는 마찰교반접합을 이용하여 두께 3mm의 409 스테인리스강에 대해 맞대기 접합을 실시하였다. 접합 변수를 툴의 재료 (WC-12wt%Co, $Si_3N_4$)로 하여 접합을 실시하였고 접합 후 외관상태 점검, 광학 현미경과 주사 전자 현미경을 통하여 미세조직을 관찰하였으며 황산-황산동 부식 시험을 실시하여 접합부의 부식 특성을 평가하였다.

Aluminum cast iron has excellent oxidation resistance and good resistance to sulfide and corrosion. Compared to Ti and Ni alloys, it is expected to be a substitute material for structural materials and stainless steels because it is relatively inexpensive to use Fe, which is a non-strategic element. This results in a weight reduction effect of about 30% as compared to the use of stainless steel. With regard to aluminum as an alloying material, it is an element that has been widely used for the alloying of cast iron in recent years. Practical use has been delayed owing to the resulting lack of ductility at room temperature and the sharp decrease in the strength above 600℃ of this alloy, however. The cause of the weak room temperature ductility is known to be environmental embrittlement by hydrogen, and the addition of various alloying elements has been attempted in order to mitigate these shortcomings. Although alloying elements such as vanadium, chromium, and manganese are mainly used to increase the hardness and wear resistance of gray cast iron, the price of finished products containing these elements and the problems associated with alloys with this material impose many limitations.

Three-point bending fatigue properties of austenitic 304 stainless steel sheets were investigated at room temperature and LNG temperature($-162^{\circ}C$) in the strain range from 0.43 to $1.7\%$. The fatigue properties at $-162^{\circ}C$ were superior to those at room temperature due to the higher volume fractions of deformation-induced martensite. The cyclic hardening behavior owing to the deformation- induced martensite transformation was detected in both specimens. In room temperature testing, the mean load amplitude increased steadily with cycles, meaning that cumulative plastic incubation strain was required for martensite transformation. On the contrary, in $-162^{\circ}C$ tested specimen, the mean load amplitude increased rapidly within a few cycles due to the rapid transformation of martensite, and slightly decreased after the maximum is reached probably due to dynamic recovery.

The effects of immersion time in the liquid nitrogen and deformation-induced martensitic transformation on the behavior of austenite stainless steels used for the hydrogen storage tank of auto-mobile at cryogenic temperature were investigated. With increasing of immersion time in the liquid nitrogen, the tensile strength of all austenite stainless steels at cryogenic temperature was increased because the martensite transformation of unstable austenite. The restraint of crack generation ana transmission also increased the tensile strength by the active ${\alpha}'$ transformation. The elongation decreasing of 321 steel is not the mechanical deformation of austenite phase but the stress induced martensite phase during the tensile test.

It is important to evaluate strength of dissimilar weld zone to use dissimilar materials safely. This study examines mechanical characteristics of dissimilar weld zone between low alloy steel and austenitic stainless steel that satisfies welding related requirements of ASME Code, experimentally reviews metallurgical and mechanical properties at and adjacent to weld interface. It is confirmed that hardness singularity occurs at the weld interface, and that optimum buttering thickness is more than 5㎜ from view points of tensile & yield strength. From a macroscopic view, brittle fracture characteristics is observed in buttering weld zone by tensile test.

스테인리스강은 내식성이 우수하여 열교환기, 화학플랜트 등 부식환경의 구조물 혹은 파이프에 널리 사용되고 있다. 스테인리스 파이프 제조에 사용되는 용접방법은 주로 GTA 용접이 적용되고 있는데, 이 방법은 용접부 품질은 우수하지만 용접 생산성이 늦은 단점이 있다. 또한 이상스테인리스 등과 같은 특수한 용도의 스테인리스 강은 기존의 용접으로는 용접부 성능 확보가 어렵다. 레이저는 고밀도로 집속되고 직진성이 우수한 일종의 빛으로 용접/절단 등 금속 혹은 비금속의 가공에 널리 사용되고 있다. 레이저 용접의 장점은 비접촉으로 용접이 가능하고, 용접 속도가 매우 빠르고, 용접이 가능한 소재의 종류 혹은 두께의 제약이 적고, 용접부가 작아 변형이 적다는 것이다. 이러한 장점으로 인하여 자동차산업에 적용이 급격히 증가하였으며, 최근에는 다양한 분야에 적용이 추진되고 있다. 본 발표에서는 스테인리스강의 파이프 제조 공정에 레이저용접을 적용하기 위한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 사용된 소재는 오스테나이트계 및 이상스테인리스강이었으며, 용입특성, 용접부 기계적 특성 등을 알아 보았으며, 열처리에 따른 특성 변화를 평가하였다.
