First-principles calculations based on spin density functional theory are performed to study the spin-resolved electronic properties of AlN doped with a Cu concentration of 6.25%-18.75%. The ferromagnetic state is more energetically favorable state than the antiferromagnetic state or the nonmagnetic state. For $Al_{0.9375}Cu_{0.0625}N$, a global magnetic moment of 1.26 mB per supercell, with a localized magnetic moment of 0.75 $m_B$ per Cu atom is found. The magnetic moment is reduced due to an increase in the number of Cu atoms occupying adjacent cation lattice position. For $Al_{0.8125}Cu_{0.1875}N$, the magnetism of the supercell disappears by the interaction of the neighboring Cu atoms. The nonmagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition is found to occur at this Cu concentration. The range of concentrations that are spin-polarized should be restricted within very narrow.

Effects of Cu and B on effective grain size and low-temperature toughness of thermo-mechanically processed high-strength bainitic steels were investigated in this study. The microstructure of the steel specimens was analyzed using optical, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy; their effective grain size was also characterized by electron back-scattered diffraction. To evaluate the strength and low-temperature toughness, tensile and Charpy impact tests were carried out. The specimens were composed of various low-temperature transformation products such as granular bainite (GB), degenerated upper bainite (DUB), lower bainite (LB), and lath marteniste (LM), dependent on the addition of Cu and B. The addition of Cu slightly increased the yield and tensile strength, but substantially deteriorated the low-temperature toughness because of the higher volume fraction of DUB with a large effective grain size. The specimen containing both Cu and B had the highest strength, but showed worse low-temperature toughness of higher ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) and lower absorbed energy because it mostly consisted of LB and LM. In the B-added specimen, on the other hand, it was possible to obtain the best combination of high strength and good low-temperature toughness by decreasing the overall effective grain size via the appropriate formation of different low-temperature transformation products containing GB, DUB, and LB/LM.

Microstructure and phase transformation of Ti-Ni-Cu alloy powders produced by using attrition milling method were studied. Mixed powders of Ti-(50-X)Ni-XCu ($X=0{\sim}20$ at%) in composition range were mechanically alloyed for maximum 20 hours by using SUS 1/4" ball in argon atmosphere. Ball to powder ratio was 50: 1 and impeller speed was 350rpm. Mechanically alloyed with attrition millimg method. powder was heat treated at the temperature up to $850^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in the $10^{-6}$ torr vacuum. Ti-Ni-Cu alloy powders have been fabricated by attrition milling method. and then phase transformation behaviours and microstructual properties of the alloy powders were investigated to assist in improving the the high damping capacity of Ti-Ni-Cu shape memory alloy powders. The results obtained are as follows: 1. After heat treating of fully mechanically alloyed powder at $850^{\circ}C$ for 1hour. most of the B2 and B 19' phases was formed and $TiNi_3$ were coexisted. 2. The B 19' martensite were formed in Ti-Ni-Cu alloy powders whose Cu-content is less than 5a/o. where as the B19 martensite in those whose Cu-content is more than 10at%. 3. The powders of as-milled Ti-Ni-Cu alloys whose Cu-contents is less than 5at% are amorphous. whereas those of as-milled Ti-Ni-Cu alloys whose Cu-content is more than 10at% are crystalline. This means that Cu addition tends to suppress amorphization of Ti-Ni alloy powders.

For better management of micronutrients in crop cultivation, the availability of micronutrients in the soils must be updated and evaluated as a first step. This study was conducted to investigate the distribution of micronutrients in soils of plastic film houses. Total 396 soil samples were collected from the plastic film houses of various crops in Yeongnam province (strawberry, 96; red pepper, 66; tomato, 74; oriental melon, 97; cucumber, 63). Total and available contents of B, Cu, Zn, Fe, and Mn in the soils were determined. Available B was extracted with hot water and available Cu, Zn, Fe, and Mn were extracted with 0.1 N HCl. Mean values of total contents of B, Cu, Zn, Fe, and Mn in the plastic film house soils were 25, 32, 74, 21,316, and $420mg\;kg^{-1}$, respectively. Total contents of micronutrients in the plastic film house soils were similar to those found in the open fields nearby, while they were different among the locations investigated. Mean contents extractable B, Cu, and Zn in the plastic film house soils were 2.1, 7.5, and $35mg\;kg^{-1}$, respectively. The contents of extractable B, Cu, and Zn in the plastic film house soils were higher than those found in the open fields nearby with exceptions of B in soils of strawberry and Cu in soils of red pepper and oriental melon. However, mean contents of extractable Fe and Mn in the plastic film house soils were 156 and $146mg\;kg^{-1}$, respectively, and the mean content of extractable Fe was much lower than that found in open fields nearby. The contents of extractable Zn, Fe, and Mn were higher than the sufficient levels for the crop requirements in most of the plastic film house soils investigated. Contents of extractable Cu in most soils of strawberry, tomato and cucumber cultivations were higher than the sufficient level. However, extractable Cu contents were below the sufficient level in about 30% of investigated soils of red pepper and oriental melon cultivation. Soils containing higher contents of extractable B than the sufficient level were relatively fewer in comparison to the other micronutrients.

The ageing behavior of Cu-bearing HSLA steels was studied by using Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), Transmission electron microscopy and hardness tester. Two heat evolution peaks were observed during DSC scans over the temperature range of 25～590$^{\circ}C$ at a heating rate of 5$^{\circ}C$/min. The peaks appeared in low (241∼319$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-A, 224∼310$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-B) and high temperature (514∼590$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-A, 451∼558$^{\circ}C$ : HSLA-B) are attributed to the formation of coherent Cu-clusters and noncoherent $\varepsilon$-Cu phase, respectively. It was confirmed that as ageing proceeds, the coherent bcc Cu-clusters transform to noncoherent fcc $\varepsilon$-Cu phase. In the case of the ageing to peak hardness at 300$^{\circ}C$ and 400$^{\circ}C$, the coherent Cu-clusters contributed to the hardening. As ageing time and temperature increase over peak hardness, noncoherent $\varepsilon$-Cu are formed and hardness decreases.

The influence of Nd and B contents on the magnetic properties and structures of ${\alpha}-Fe$ based Nd-(Fe,Co)-B-Mo-Cu alloys was investigated. $Nd_{4}{(Fe_{0.9}Co_{0.1})}_{92-x}B_{x}Mo_{3}Cu_{1}$ and $Nd_{x}{(Fe_{0.9}Co_{0.1})}_{86-x}B_{10}Mo_{3}Cu_{1}$ amorphous alloys prepared by rapid solidification process were crystallized to form nanocrystalline structure. The increase of B content in $Nd_{4}{(Fe_{0.9}Co_{0.1})}_{92-x}B_{x}Mo_{3}Cu_{1}$ nanocrystalline resulted in the change of stucture of soft phase in the sequence of ${\alpha}-Fe$->${\alpha}-Fe+Fe_{3}B$->$Fe_{3}B$. The coercivitis of the alloys were increased with increasing B content and was 263 kA/m at x=18. On the contrary, the remanence has shown an opposite trends. The increase of Nd content in $Nd_{x}{(Fe_{0.9}Co_{0.1})}_{86-x}B_{10}Mo_{3}Cu_{1}$ nanocrystalline containing ${\alpha}-Fe$ as main phase had no effect on the structure and improved coercivity up to 256 kA/m. However, the remanence was decreased from 1.4 T to 1.15 T according to the increase of Nd content.

We investigated the effect of the oxygne partial pressure on the phase stability of B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$Ca C $u_{2}$ $O_{8+x}$ and B $i_{2}$S $r_{2}$C $a_{2}$C $u_{3}$ $O_{10+x}$ at 82$0^{\circ}C$. As the oxygen pressure decreased, B $i_{2}$Sr/sb 2/CaC $u_{2}$ $O_{8+x}$ melted at 2.2$\times$10$^{-3}$ atm $O_{2}$.
