Two gaskets of Al 2024-T4 and annealed al 2024-T4 were made. We had acquired 2 $\times$ 10-12torr in a chamber using them. Microstructures, hardness and stress concentration of the gaskets were examined before and after baking. Knife edge damages such as decrease of edge height(H) and increase of edge angle() were found on knife edges when the Al 2024-T4 gasket was used. But no damage was found with the annealed Al 2024 gasket.

When subjected to severe shear deformation by ECAP, microstructure of Al2024 becomes extremely refined. To measure the strength of that, small punch(SP) testing method was adopted as a substitute for the conventional uniaxial tensile testing because the size of material processed by ECAP were limited to ${\psi}12\;mm$ in transverse direction. SP tests were performed with specimens in longitudinal and transverse directions of Al2024 ECAP metal. For comparing the strength values with those assessed by SP tests, uniaxial tensile tests were also conducted with specimens in longitudinal direction. Failure surfaces of the tested SP specimens showed that failure mode was shear deformation and Al 2024 ECAP metal has an anisotropy in strength. Thus, conventional equations proposed for assessing the strength characteristics were improper to assess those of Al2024 ECAP metal. In this paper a way of assessing the strength of Al 2024 ECAP metal was proposed and was proven to be effective.

When subjected to severe shear deformation by ECAP, microstructure of Al2024 becomes nanocrystalline grained texture material. To measure the strength of that, small punch (SP) testing method was adopted as a substitute for the conventional uniaxial tensile testing because the size of material processed by ECAP were limited to $\varphi12mm$ in transverse direction. SP tests were performed with specimens in longitudinal and transverse directions of Al 2024 ECAP metal. For comparing the strength values with those assessed by SP tests, uniaxial tensile tests were also conducted with specimens in longitudinal direction. Failure surfaces of the tested SP specimens showed that failure mode was shear deformation and Al 2024 ECAP metal has an anisotropy in strength.

2024 Aluminium was welded by domestic manufactured continuous type friction welder. The problems and optimum condition were studied in 2024 Al-2024 Al cases. Mechanical tests and microstructure analysis were studeid. Interfacial temperature of welding was predicted by FDM. The obtained results are as follows: 1) In case of Al-Al, the optimum condition range was wide. 2) At the boundary zone, fine recrystallized zone was not harmful to the mechanical property and no growth of precipitation was observed. 3) In case of Al-Al, temperature gradient can be predictedby FDM and heat input can be taken as weld parameter.

In many manufacturing such as the components of airplane and automobile, aluminum alloys(Al2024) which remarkable in low specific gravity and high strength have been utilized effectively. Face milling machining technology for surface roughness quality of workpiece has been applied in these fields. A face milling machining with chamfered throw away type insert tip can produce a perfect flat surface only in theory. But It is impossible because of many unwanted factors, namely, cutting temperature, plastic deformation, dynamic effect, etc. In this paper, experimental investigations are performed to improve surface roughness after high speed machining of Al2024 using qualified face milling cutter body for high speed machining.

Aluminum alloy 2024 matrix composites reinforced with $Al_2O_3$ particles, were prepared by rheo-compocasting, a process which consists of the incoporation distribution of reinforcement by stirring within a semi-solid alloy. The microstructures and characteristics of the interfaces have been studied using optical microscope and scanning electon microscope in 2024 aluminum alloy composites reinforced with $Al_2O_3$ particles. The main results are as follows: (1) $Al_2O_3$ particles were well distributed in composites by using rheo-compocasting. (2) As the addition of $Al_2O_3$ particle increases, the average dendrite numbers and the hardness were increased. (3) Interaction between $Al_2O_3$ particles and alloy 2024 resulted in the formation of Mg and Cu element rich region around the $Al_2O_3$ particles.

Theoptimum preparation conditions for Al2O3$.$SiC partticle by SHS process were described. The influence of the Al2O3$.$SiC voiume fraction on the mechanical was composite was also discussed. Despite adiabatic temperature was about 2367K, SHs reaction was completed not by itself, but by using pre-heating. Mean particle size of final particle synthesized was 0.73 ${\mu}$m and most of the particle was smaller than 2${\mu}$m. Elastic modulus and tensile strength of the composite increased with increase the volume fraction of reinforcement but, tensile strength depreciated at 30 vol% of reinforcement.

SiCp/pure Al and SiCp/2024Al MMCs were fabricated by in-situ VHP process designed specially just in this study which is composed of the vacuum hot press at range from R.T. to $500^{\circ}C$ and the continuous extrusion without canning process at $520^{\circ}C$. It was investigated the effect of SiC particle size, volume fraction and extrusion ratio on the tensile properties and micro structure in auf composites. In case of the 10:1 extrusion ratio, but SiCp/pure Al and SiCp/2024Al composites were shown a sound appearance and a good micro structure without crack of SiCp as well as uniform distribution of SiCp. However, in case of the 16:1 extrusion ratio, the number of cracked SiC particles more than increased in a higher volume fraction composite and 2024Al matrix composite compared with pure Al matrix one. The tensile strength of the composites reinforced smaller SiCp was higher than that of the bigger SiCp reinforced in same volume fraction and extrusion ratio.

Shape memory alloy has been used to improve the tensile strength of composite by the occurrence of compressive residual stress in matrix using its shape memory effect. In order to fabricate shape memory alloy composite, TiNi alloy fiber and Al2024 sheets were used as reinforcing material and matrix, respectively. In this study, TiNi/Al2024 shape memory alloy composite was made by using hot press method. In order to investigate bonding condition between TiNi reinforcement and Al matrix, the micro-structure of interface was observed by using optical microscope and diffusion layer of interface was measured by using Electron Probe Micro Analyser. And the mechanical properties of composite with three parameters(volume fraction of fiber, cold rolling amount and test temperature) were obtained by tensile test. The most optimum bonding condition for fabrication the TiNi/Al2024 composite material was obtained as holding for 30min. under the pressure of 60MPa at 793K. The strength of composite material increased considerably with the volume fraction of fiber up to 7.0%. And the tensile strength of this composite increased with the reduction ratio and it also depends on the volume fraction of fiber.
