A fretting wear test rig for cross contacting tube specimens, which employs a piezoelectric actuator, has been developed. Along with the simple loading scheme using dead weights, the rig is very simple to be used also. The accuracy was found acceptable. Inconel 690 tubes were tested in room temperature and ambient condition. Normal load and sliding amplitude range up to 35N and $100{\mu}m$, respectively. The sizes of wear scar and the wear volumes were measured, and wear coefficients have been calculated based on those. A study on the fretting wear mechanism of the tubes has been attempted via microscopic observation. Rugged wear surfaces are induced by the separation and adhesion of particles and formation and subsequent fracture of surface layers. Lapped specimens were also tested and abrasive wear seems to be playing a dominant role.

The welding characteristics of Inconel 600 Alloy using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser are experimentally investigated. The major process parameters studied in the present laser welding experiment were the positions of focus, laser power and travel speed of laser bean We measured the fusion zone size and its shape using an optical microscope for the observation of cross-sectional area. We performed two tests regarding the tension and the micro hardness for welding quality estimation. Then we measured residual stress in welds by electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI). In conclusion the optimum butt welding process parameters were 0.5mm focus position, 1.6kW laser power, 1m/min travel speed and 5.5$\ell$/min assist gas discharge.

종래의 초내열합금은 원자력산업과 우주항공산업등에 주로 사용되었으며, 산업이 고도화되어짐에 따라 각종 산업기계와 자동차 분야에까지 광범위하게 사용되어지고 있다. 대표적인 초내열합금으로서의 인코넬(Inconel)은 인성과 Creep 특성이 우수하고, 특히 고온강도가 높고 화학적으로도 안정하여 부식에도 강한 장점을 지니고 있어 항공기 부품재료로서 최근 각광을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 사용되어지고 공구재종인 코팅초경합금공구와 세라믹 공구를 사용하여 초내열합금인 인코넬 600을 절삭가공하여, 절삭저항,공구의 파손 및 마모,칩의 용착현상등의 가공성에 영향을 주는 요인에 대하여 검토함으로써, 공구의 종류에 대ㄷ응하는 적절한 절삭영역을 설정하는 것을 목적으로 하였다.

Material properties of the lock plate, which covers the gas-turbine blade, are studied using ultrasonic guided waves. The lock plate is a crucial part of a gas-turbine power plant. The wave velocity and attenuation coefficient are measured to investigate the changes in the material properties under three heat-treatment conditions. Compared to the destructive mechanical tests, the material characterization of Inconel X-750 can be performed more efficiently and nondestructively by using ultrasonic guided waves; this characterization helps identify the changes occurring in its elastic moduli and Poisson's ratio under different heat-treatment conditions. The wave velocity and hardness of Inconel X-750 are proportional to each other. This nondestructive technique for the measurement of material properties can be widely used in various industries to avoid catastrophic failure. It is also expected that the guided-wave technique can be applied as a new cost- and time-saving inspection tool for longer and wider inspection ranges.
