This paper deals with the reaction-bonded silicon nitride I terms of its microstructural development during nitrida-tion. Silicon powder compacts were reacted with nitrogen at 1185$^{\circ}C$ and 13$65^{\circ}C$ according to the nitriding schedule. Microstructures of nitrided specimens were examined by means of optical and scanning electron microscope to discuss the nitridation or microstructural development at initial and intermediat stage of nitridation. Reaction products were also analysed by X-ray diffraction method at each stage of nitridation. The results indicate that ho-mogeneous and uniform microstructure with find porosity can be obtained only under the reaction condition. such as slow and relatively constant reaction rate with time.

Mass transport near grain boundary in a magnetite bi-crystal has been estimated at 823 K by finite element method. Mass transport near grain boundary strongly depends on the diffusivities along grain boundary. If grain boundary diffusion has the same oxygen activity dependence as lattice diffusion, there is no mass transport between grains and grain boundary. On the other hand, mass transport between grains and grain boundary is observed in the case that grain boundary diffusion has different oxygen activity dependence.

The effect of annealing condition on the texture and microstructure development in Ni tapes fabricated by cold-rolling including powder metallurgy was investigated. The Pole-figure results showed that the Ni tapes annealed at lower temperature than 50$0^{\circ}C$ were the mixture of brass deformation texture and cube texture. The specimens annealed at high temperatures had only well-developed cube texture and the FWHMs of in-plane and out-of-plane were in the range of 8-10$^{\circ}$. The degree of texture was not significantly depended on annealing temperatures. The grain morphologies of Ni tapes prepared at low temperatures showed serrated grain boundaries due to incomplete recrystallization, but the specimens prepared at high temperatures showed stabilized grain shape without serrated grain boundaries.

A Monte Carlo simulation based on Potts model in a three dimensional lattice was studied to analyze and design microstructures in porous sintered compacts such as porosity, pore size, grain (particle) size and contiguity of grains. The effect of surface energy of particles and the content of additional fine particles to coarse particles on microstructure development were examined to obtain fundamentals for material design in porous materials. It has been found that the larger surface energy enhances sintering (necking) of particles and increases contiguity and surface energy does not change pore size and grain size. The addition of fine particles also enhances sintering of particles and increases contiguity, but it has an effect on increment of pore size and grain size. Such a simulation technique can give us important information or wisdom for design of porous materials, e.g., material system with high surface energy and fine particle audition are available for higher strength and larger porosity in porous sintered compacts with applications in an automobile.

The effects of anisotropic surface energy on the microstructure development of porous materials have been studied through Monte Carlo simulation using a three dimensional lattice. The changes in porosity ($f_v$), mean grain diameter ($D_s$), fraction of connected pores ($f_{v,c}$) and contiguity of the solid phase (C) were examined in cases with three different ${\gamma}_{SV}$ relations and initial grain diameters ($D_{s,o}$). It has been found that larger ${\gamma}_{SV}$ enhances sintering of particles and increases C and does not change $D_s$. And Introducing anisotropic ${\gamma}_{SV}$ brought an increase in $f_v$ and $f_{v,c}$ and an decrease in $D_s$ and C, and this tendency become more marked for fine $D_{s,o}$.

Since the interaction between the second-phase particle and grain boundary was theoretically explained by Zener and Smith in the late 1940s, the interaction of the second-phase particle and grain boundary on the microstructure is commonly referred to as Zener pinning. It is known as one of the main mechanisms that can retard grain growth during heat treatment of metallic and ceramic polycrystalline systems. Computer simulation techniques have been applied to the study of microstructure changes since the 1980s, and accordingly, the second-phase particle-grain boundary interaction has been simulated by various simulation techniques, and further diverse developments have been made for more realistic and accurate simulations. In this study, we explore the existing development patterns and discuss future possible development directions.

To increase the performance of the light diffusion films, we controlled the three dimensional microstructure of the organic fillers(beads). The refractive index, the size distribution and the three dimensional distribution of beads play an important role to determine the performance of light diffusion films for the backlight unit of TFT-LCD.
