Nano powders of $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$ compounds made by high energy ball milling were pulsed current activated sintered for studying their sintering behaviors and mechanical properties. The advantage of this process is that it allows very quick densification to near theoretical density and inhibition of grain growth. Nano-structured $Al_2TiO_5$ with small amount of $Al_2O_3$ and$TiO_2$ was formed by sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 5 minute, in which average grain size was about 96 nm. Hardness and fracture toughness of the nano-structured $Al_2TiO_5$ compound with a small amount of $Al_2O_3$ and$TiO_2$ were $602kg/mm^2$ and $2.6MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively.

An effective way of increasing the strength and fracture toughness of reactor pressure vessel steels is to change the material specification from that of Mn-Mo-Ni low alloy steel(SA508 Gr.3) to Ni-Mo-Cr low alloy steel(SA508 Gr.4N). In this study, we evaluate the effects of alloying elements on the microstructural characteristics of Ni-Mo-Cr low alloy steel. The changes in the stable phase of the SA508 Gr.4N low alloy steel with alloying elements were evaluated by means of a thermodynamic calculation conducted with the software ThermoCalc. The changes were then compared with the observed microstructural results. The calculation of Ni-Mo-Cr low alloy steels confirms that the ferrite formation temperature decreases as the Ni content increases because of the austenite stabilization effect. Consequently, in the microscopic observation, the lath martensitic structure becomes finer as the Ni content increases. However, Ni does not affect the carbide phases such as $M_{23}C_6 $ and $M_7C_3$. When the Cr content decreases, the carbide phases become unstable and carbide coarsening can be observed. With an increase in the Mo content, the $M_2C$ phase becomes stable instead of the $M_7C_3$ phase. This behavior is also observed in TEM. From the calculation results and the observation results of the microstructure, the thermodynamic calculation can be used to predict the precipitation behavior.

The pulsed current activated sintering method (PCAS) is a new rapid sintering method that was developed recently for fabricating ceramics and composites. This method combines a high temperature for a short time with pressure application. In this work, PCAS was used to fabricate $WC-5wt%Mo_2C-5wt%$ Co hard material using WC, $Mo_2C$, and Co. The $WC-Mo_2C-Co$ was almost completely dense with a relative density of up to 100% after the simultaneous application of a pressure of 60 MPa and electric current for 11 min without grain growth. The average grain size of WC that was produced through PCAS was about $0.5-0.6{\mu}m$. The vickers hardness and fracture toughness of the $WC-5wt%Mo_2C-5wt%$Co hard materials were about $2453.5kg/mm^2$ and $7.9MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively, for 60 MPa at $11200^{\circ}C$.

3Y-TZP (3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals) ceramics have excellent mechanical properties including high fracture toughness, good abrasion resistance as well as chemical and biological stability. As a result, they are widely used in mechanical and medical components such as bearings, grinding balls, and hip implants. In addition, they provide excellent light transmittance, biocompatibility, and can match tooth color when used as a dental implant. Recently, given the materials' resemblance to human teeth, these ceramics have emerged as an alternative to titanium implants. Since the introduction of CAD/CAM in the manufacture of ceramic implants, they've been increasingly used for prosthetic restoration where aesthetics and strength are required. In this study, to improve the surface roughness of zirconia implants, we modified the 3Y-TZP surface with a biocomposite of hydroxyapatite and forsterite using room temperature spray coating methods, and investigated the mixed effect of the two powders on the evolution of surface microstructure, i.e., coating thickness and roughness, and biological interaction during the in vitro test in SBF solution. We compared improvement in bioactivity by observing dissolution and re-precipitation on the specimen surface. From the results of in vitro testing in SBF solution, we confirmed improvement in the bioactivity of the 3Y-TZP substrate after surface modification with a biocomposite of hydroxyapatite and forsterite. Surface dissolution of the coating layer and the precipitation of new hydroxyapatite particles was observed on the modified surface, indicating the improvement in bioactivity of the zirconia substrate.

Titanium alloys are widely recognized among engineering materials owing to their impressive mechanical properties, including high strength-to-weight ratios, fracture toughness, resistance to fatigue, and corrosion resistance. Consequently, applications involving titanium alloys are more susceptible to damage from unforeseen events, such as scratches. Nevertheless, the impact of microscopic damage remains an area that requires further investigation. This study delves into the microscopic wear behavior of α-titanium crystal structures when subjected to linear scratch-induced damage conditions, utilizing molecular dynamics simulations as the primary methodology. The configuration of crystal lattice structures plays a crucial role in influencing material properties such as slip, which pertains to the movement of dislocations within the crystal structure. The molecular dynamics technique surpasses the constraints of observing microscopic phenomena over brief intervals, such as sub-nano- or pico-second intervals. First, we demonstrate the localized transformation of lattice structures at the end of initialization, indentation, and wear processes. In addition, we obtain the exerted force on a rigid sphere during scratching under linear movement. Furthermore, we investigate the effect of the relaxation period between indentation and scratch deformation. Finally, we conduct a comparison study of nanoindentation between crystal and amorphous Ti substrates. Thus, this study reveals the underlying physics of the microscopic transformation of the α-titanium crystal structure under wear-like accidental events.

고상 반응법을 통해 $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_{3-{\delta}}$ 페롭스카이트계 산소투과 분리막을 제조하였으며, 미세구조에 따른 산소투과 특성 및 기계적 특성을 고찰하였다. 분리막의 미세구조는 소결온도 및 소결 유지시간을 달리함으로써 조절하였으며, 미세구조에 따른 평균 입경 및 상대밀도의 변화를 평가하였다. 입계 분율의 감소에 따라 산소투과유속이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 본 연구에서 고찰한 소결조건 중에서는 1300${\circ}C$에서 10시간 유지하여 제조한, 상대밀도가 높고 비교적 입경이 조대한 분리막 시편의 경우, 최대 0.37 ml/$cm^2$${\cdot}$min의 산소투과유속이 특정되었다. 파괴강도는 소결체의 상대밀도에 의존적이었으며, 파괴인성은 결정립의 크기에 따라 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

최근 국내에서는 고분자 화합물인 폴리우레아를 이용하여 보강 성능의 향상을 위한 연질형 폴리우레아를 개발하여 구조물에 적용하였지만 보강 성능은 미비한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 폴리우레아를 구조물의 보강재로 사용하기 위하여 연질형 폴리우레아의 구성 요소를 변화시켜 경질형 폴리우레아를 개발하였다. 개발된 경질형 폴리우레아는 연질형 폴리우레아에 비해 경도와 인장강도가 향상된 성능을 나타내었다. 경질형 폴리우레아를 일반 구조물의 보강재로 사용하기 위하여 RC 슬래브 시험체를 제작하여 보강 성능을 평가하였으며, 현재 보강재로 사용되는 섬유 시트와 적층하여 보강한 후 성능을 평가하였다. 실험 결과 경질형 폴리우레아만으로 보강한 시험체가 무보강 시험체보다 우수한 강성 증진 효과와 연성 증진 효과를 나타내는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 섬유 시트를 부착한 후 경질형 폴리우레아를 외부에 도포하여 보강한 시험체는 섬유 시트만으로 보강한 시험체보다 보강 성능이 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 경질형 폴리우레아를 도포한 후 섬유 시트를 부착한 시험체는 경질형 폴리우레아의 변형을 강성이 높은 섬유 시트가 억제하여 하중이 가해지며 생기는 응력이 한곳에 집중되어 취성적인 파괴 거동을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.
