SmBCO coated conductors were successfully fabricated using EDDC (Evaporation using Drum in Dual Chambers) deposition system that is a bath type co-evaporation system for fabrication of superconducting tape and divided into two chambers named evaporation chamber and reaction chamber. To obtain long and high quality superconducting coated conductor, it is very important to secure the uniformity of all the deposition parameters m the deposition system such as deposition temperature, oxygen partial pressure, compositional ratios and so on. Therefore, we investigated the distribution of the parameters along the axis of the drum m EDDC on which tapes were wound helically. When the temperature on the middle point of deposition zone was $700^{\circ}C$, that on the edge of deposition zone was $675^{\circ}C$. When the thickness of SmBCO layer on the middle point of deposition zone was 1063 nm, that on the edge of deposition zone was 899 nm. The partial pressure of oxygen was 5 mTorr in the reaction chamber while that was $7{\times}10^{-5}$Torr in the evaporation chamber. The composition ratio of Sm:Ba:Cu, that was measured by EDX, was very uniform along the axis of the drum. Under these deposition conditions, critical current distribution along the drum axis was 175 A/cm, 190A/cm, 217.5 A/cm, 182.5 A/cm, 175 A/cm with the interval of 9 cm between samples. It means that the EDDC system has the potential of fabricating (100m, 200A) class coated conductor.

The $Pb_{0.94}Y_{0.04}[(Zr_{0.6}Sn_{0.4})_{0.915}Ti_{0.085}]O_3$ ceramics which corresponded to the antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase boundary composition were prepared for digital-type-piezoelectric/electrostrictive device application. Their dielectric, field-induced polarization (P) and strain (X) behaviors were studied with variations in sintering condition and excess PbO content. The orthorhombic structure of specimens was hardly affected either by excess PbO addition or sintering temperature. With increasing excess PbO content, grains tended to be smaller and rounded ones, and the optimum sintering temperature was lowered. Excess PbO addition stabilized the antiferroelectric phase of the specimen effectively, which was confirmed by P-E and X-E analyses. Also the digital-type-strain character was found to be enhanced despite of slight increase in phase transition (AFE-FE) field and electrical resistivity, and decrease in maximum strain. These results were explained in terms of possible lattice defects and domain wall motion.

[ $Ba(Zn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ] (BZN) 세라믹스의 소결 온도는 약 $1350^{\circ}C$ 이다. 그러나 $B_2O_3$가 첨가된 경우, BZN 세라믹스는 $900^{\circ}C$에서 소결되었다. $BaB_4O_7$, $BaB_2O_4$ 그리고 $BaNb_2O_6$ 이차상이 $B_2O_3$가 첨가된 BZN 세라믹스에서 관찰되었다. $BaB_4O_7$과 $BaB_2O_4$ 이차상은 약 $900^{\circ}C$에서 공정 온도를 가지기 때문에 $B_2O_3$를 첨가한 BZN 세라믹스론 $900^{\circ}C$에서 소결하는 동안 액상으로 존재할 것으로 여겨지며, 그것이 BZN 세라믹스의 소결온도를 낮출 것으로 생각된다. 소결 온도의 증가에 따라 유전 상수 ($\varepsilon_r$)와 품질 계수 ($Q{\times}f$)의 값은 증가하였는데, 이는 밀도의 증가에 기인한다. 그러나 $B_2O_3$의 첨가량이 많은 경우 Q 값은 감소하는데, 이는 이차상의 존재가 품질계수의 저하를 초래한다고 생각된다. 2.0 mol% $B_2O_3$가 첨가된 BZN 세라믹스를 $950^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 동안 소결하는 경우, $Q{\times}f$=13.600 GHz, $\varepsilon_r$=37.6 그리고 공진 주파수 온도계수 ($\tau_f$) = 19 ppm/$^{\circ}C$의 유전특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

전기적 에너지를 기계적 에너지로 변환하고 또한, 기계적 에너지를 전기적 에너지로 변환할 수 있는 압전 세라믹스는 압전 변압기 (piezoelectric transformer), 초음파 모터, 센서 등과 같은 응용분야에 광범위하게 사용되고 있다. 특히, 전원장치에 있어서 현재 주요 전자제품에 사용되고 있는 권선형 변압기와 같은 전자 변환기의 대체품으로 압전 세라믹스 소재의 특성을 이용한 압전변압기의 개발과 응용연구는 국내외적으로 활발히 연구되어왔다. 압전변압기는 권선형 변압기와 비교 하였을 때 누설자속이 없어 노이즈 발생이 없고, 공진주파수만을 이용하므로 출력의 파형이 정현파에 가까워 고조파 잡음이 없으며, 불연성의 특징을 가지고 있다. 추가적으로 압전 변압기는 소형화, 슬림화, 경량화가 가능하며 90%이상의 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있다. 또한, 단판형 압전변압기의 출력한계를 개선하기 위해 높은 승압비와 고출력을 갖는 적층타입의 압전변압기가 제안되었다. 압전변압기용 조성 세라믹스는 높은 에너지 변환효율을 위해서 전기기계결합계수 ($k_p$)가 커야 하며, 발열에 의한 온도 상승을 억제하기 위하여 기계적 품질계수(Qm)가 큰 것이 바람직하다. 또한, 높은 전류를 발생하기 위해서는 유전상수가 커 압전변압기의 출력측 정전용량을 크게 하여야한다. 이러한 압전변압기의 제작 조건을 위해 우수한 압전 및 유전특성을 갖는 PZT계 세라믹스가 주로 사용 되어져 왔다. 그러나, PZT계 세라믹스의 우수한 압전 및 유전특성에도 불구하고 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 급격히 휘발하는 PbO의 성질 때문에 환경적으로나 인체의 건강문제로 인해 전세계적으로 그 사용량을 제한하고 있다. 또한 적층 압전변압기의 구조적 특성상 내부전극과 함께 소결하여야 하는데, 이때 소결온도가 높으면 값비싼 Pd합량이 높은 전극을 사용하여야 한다. Pd함량이 10%미만인 Ag/Pd 전극을 사용하기 위해서는 $950^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 저온소결이 가능한 세라믹스 제조가 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 소결온도를 낮추는 방법으로는 다른 물질들을 치환하여 소결온도를 낮추는 방법과 미세분말을 만들어 그레인사이즈를 미세화 하는 방법들이 있다. 많은 미세 분말 제조 방법 중에서 Attrition mill은 일반적인 ball mill에 비해 분말의 입도를 미세하게 할 수 있어 증가된 분말의 비표면적에 의하여 반응을 촉진시킴으로써 저온소결이 가능한 세라믹스를 만들 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 소결온도가 낮으면서도 유전 및 압전특성이 우수한 조성을 사용하여 적층 압전변압기를 제작하여 전기적 특성을 조사하였다.

It is important to analyze the dynamic behavior of counter-rotating rigid/deformable rolls in the roll-coating process, because the stability of the process is affected by the dynamic characteristics. In the present study, the effects of material property, angular velocity, and gap size on the contact pressure and contact shape of the deformable roll are numerically investigated. The behavior of two rolls with a negative gap was analyzed using the finite element method, and the material property of the deformable roll was applied with the Mooney-Rivlin coefficients of the hyper-elastic model. The contact shape is affected by the gap size, and the contact pressure mainly depends on the stiffness of the deformable roll and the gap size. To maintain a negative gap between two rolls, controls such as load and displacement controls must be used. The results indicate that displacement control can reduce the instability.

Effects of Sc addition on microstructure, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the as-cast and as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5 wt%) alloys are investigated. The average grain size of the as-cast Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg alloy is 2,334 ㎛; however, this value drops to 914 and 529 ㎛ with addition of Sc element at 0.25 wt% and 0.5 wt%, respectively. This grain refinement is due to primary Al₃Sc phase forming during solidification. The as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg alloy has a recrystallization structure consisting of almost equiaxed grains. However, the as-extruded Sc-containing alloys consist of grains that are extremely elongated in the extrusion direction. In addition, it is found that the proportion of low-angle grain boundaries below 15 degree is dominant. This is because the addition of Sc results in the formation of coherent and nano-scale Al₃Sc phases during hot extrusion, inhibiting the process of recrystallization and improving the strength by pinning of dislocations and the formation of subgrain boundaries. The maximum values of the yield and tensile strength are 126 MPa and 215 MPa for the as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-0.25Sc alloy, respectively. The increase in strength is probably due to the existence of nano-scale Al₃Sc precipitates and dense Al₂Cu phases. Thermal conductivity of the as-cast Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc alloy is reduced to 204, 187 and 183 W/MK by additions of elemental Sc of 0, 0.25 and 0.5 wt%, respectively. On the other hand, the thermal conductivity of the as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc alloy is about 200 W/Mk regardless of the content of Sc. This is because of the formation of coherent Al₃Sc phase, which decreases Sc content and causes extremely high electrical resistivity.

$(Pb,La)TiO_3$(PLT) thin films were prepared on Pt/SiO$_2$/Si substrates by the sol-gel method and investigated the crystalline and electrical properties according to La concentration and post-annealing temperatures. The PLT films annealed at above $600^{\circ}C$ were exhibited the typical perovskite structures regardless of La contents. When the $(Pb,La)TiO_3$(PT) films were doped with La concentration up to 10mol%(PLT-10), the degree of z-axis orientation was greatly decreased from 63% to 26%. From AES depth profiles for the PLT-10 samples, no remarkable inter-reaction between PLT film and lower Pt electrode was found. The remanent polarization$(2Pr,Pr_+-Pr_-)$ were increased from $4\muC\textrm{cm}^2 to 16\muC\textrm{cm}^2$ as the annealing temperature increased from $600^{\circ}C to 700^{\circ}C$. This result may be ascribed to the improvement of crystallinity by the high temperature post-annealing. The dielectric constant$({\varepsilon}r)$ and tangent loss(tan$\delta$) of the PLT-10 films annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ were about 193 and 0.02, respectively with the pyroelectric coefficient($\gamma$) of around $4.0nC/\textrm{cm}^2{\cdot}^{\circ}C at 30^{\circ}C$.

[ $BaZrO_3$ ], nanopowder was added to YBCO powder to make ($BazrO_3)_x(YBCO)_{(100-x)mol.-%}$ ($BZO_x$-YBCO) ($0{\leq}x{\leq}10$) composite targets fur pulsed laser deposition of superconducting layer in order to investigate the effect of the addition of BZO nanopowder in the YBCO target on the flux pinning properties of $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films. All the $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films were grown on single crystal STO substrate under similar conditions in the PLD chamber. The effect of YBCO targets doped with BZO on the flux pinning properties of $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films has been investigated comparatively. The isothermal magnetizations M(H) of the films were measured at temperatures between 5 and 80 K in fields up to 5 T, employing a PPMS. The optimal amount of BZO nanopowders in $BZO_x$-YBCO thin films to obtain the strongest flux pinning effects at high magnetic fields is about 6 mol.-%.

The simplified method drawing the S-N curves in welding joints of the cover plates, the transverse stiffners and the gusset plates of the plate girders by calculation and its computer program without the direct fatigue tests, was established. And the method was applied to the Young- Dong Great Bridge, the 3 th Han River Bridge and the Kang Chon Bridge. Before this, SS 41, SS 50, SWS 50 and SWS 58 were selected, then the compact tension specimens were made by the use of these materials, the things welded by these materials transversely and the ones longitudinally to the crack propagation direction. The fatigue tests were performed by the use of these 'specimens, and the values of material constants c and m were obtained. By these results the followings were obtained. It was showed that the fatigue: strength in the case of the cover plates was much lower than in the case of other two cases. It was showed that, in the case of the cover plates with the cover plates thicker the fatigue strength was lower, but besides this the fatigue strength was not much influenced by the size of specimens. It was showed that in the difference from this the fatigue strength was sensitively influenced by the values of c and m. It was showed that in accordance with the lower values of c and m the fatigue strength was fairly higher, in accordance with the lower values of m the gradient of the S-N curves was abrupter. It was considered that if such data were accumulated continuously, in the near future the basic pattern used availably in providing the indicater of the fatigue design of the plate girders, and presuming the life-proof of the existing plate girders.
