Although the mechanical properties of high-entropy alloys depend on the annealing conditions, limited works were established to investigate the annealing effect on the mechanical properties of Mo-added high-entropy alloys. Therefore, in the present work, the annealing effects on the microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of Mo-added high-entropy alloy were investigated. As a result, incomplete recrystallization from the limited annealing time not only suppresses deformation-induced phase transformation during cryogenic tensile test but also induces a deformation instability that results into the ductility reduction compare with the fully recrystallized sample. This result represents adjustment of annealing time is useful to control both transformation-induce plasticity and deformation instability of high-entropy alloys, and this can be applied to control the mechanical properties of metallic alloys by combining pre-straining and subsequent annealing.

최근 자동차 산업에서는 연비향상 및 안전규제 강화에 따라 차량 경량화가 필수적으로 요구됨에 따라 DP강(Dual Phase steel), CP강(Complex Phase steel), MS강(Martensitic Steel), TRIP강(Transformation Induced Plasticity steel), TWIP강(Twinning Induced Plasticity steel) 등과 같은 인장강도 700MPa 이상인 초고장력강(Ultra High Strength Steel)의 적용이 증가하고 있다. 초고장력강을 차체에 적용하기 위해서는 용접공정이 필수적이며, 원가 측면에서 유리한 전기저항점용접(Resistance Spot Welding, RSW)이 차체 용접에서 80%이상으로 가장 많이 적용되고 있다. 초고장력강은 강도향상을 위해 합금원소 함량을 늘이기 때문에 일반적으로 용접성이 열악한 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 초고장력강의 저항점용접의 경우 적정 용접조건 영역이 축소되고 용접부에서 계면파단 및 부분계면파단이 발생하는 것으로 보고되어 있어 결함 및 품질을 실시간으로 예측할 수 있는 용접품질 판정 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 저항 점 용접을 수행할 때 검출되는 2차 회로 공정 변수를 이용하여 용접부의 동저항을 모니터링하고, 이 동저항 패턴에서 용접 품질 판단에 필요한 인자들을 추출하였다. 추출한 인자들을 상관분석하여 용접 품질과의 상관성을 파악하였으며, 상관성이 높은 인자들을 이용하여 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 이를 근거로 현장 적용이 가능한 회귀 모델을 제시하였다.

A study on the welding of electrogalvanized TRIP (Transformation-Induced Plasticity) steels was done to compare the life of the electrode and the alloying phenomena on the electrode tip surface using singlephase AC and inverter-DC resistance welding processes. A longer life of the electrode (>200 welds) was achieved using the inverter-DC welding process. The tensile shear strength was higher in the electrode life test when welded with the inverter DC welding machine it maintained a higher value even when the welding nugget diameter was smaller than specified. When spot-welding was conducted using the single-phase AC welding process, a higher wear rate of the electrode was observed compared to that with the inverter-DC process. An alloying layer used to determine the rate of electrode growth showed differences in the metallurgical features of the surface alloying and Zn penetration depending on whether the single-phase AC process or the inverter-DC welding process was used. Moreover, changes in the dynamic resistance during the electrode life test were correlated with the electrode wear (or growth) rate.

The gas atmosphere in continuous annealing and galvanizing lines alters both composition and microstructure of the surface and sub-surface of sheet steel. The formation and morphology of the oxides of alloying elements in High Strength Interstitial Free (HS-IF), Dual Phase (DP) and Transformation-Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels are strongly influenced by the furnace dew point, and the presence of specific oxide may result in surface defects and bare areas on galvanized sheet products. The present contribution reviews the progress made recently in understanding the selective formation of surface and subsurface oxides during annealing in hot dip galvanizing and conventional continuous annealing lines. It is believed that the surface and sub-surface composition and microstructure have a pronounced influence on galvanized sheet product surface quality. In the present study, it is shown that the understanding of the relevant phenomena requires a combination of precise laboratory-scale simulations of the relevant technological processes and the use of advanced surface analytical tools.

304L 스테인리스강판은 멤브레인타입 LNG선 단열시스템의 1차 방벽으로 이용된다. 304L 스테인리스강은 변태유기소성(TRIP)강으로 복잡한 재료거동을 보이는데, 이는 소성변형이 발생하는 동안 상변태를 경험하기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 304L 스테인리스 강의 비선형 기계적 거동분석을 위한 온도의존 일축인장시험을 수행하였으며 재료의 파단이나 비선형 거동을 예측하기 위한 점소성모델을 제안하였다. 수치해석의 결과와 시험 결과를 비교 분석하여 유효성을 검증하였으며 LNG 멤브레인에 대한 적용성을 검토하기 멤브레인 구조시편을 제작하여 구조해석 및 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 재료모델은 개발 서브루틴을 이용하였으며 ABAQUS 사용자지정 재료 서브루틴을 탑재한 유한요소해석 결과와 극저온 구조인장시험을 수행한 결과를 비교하여 구조적용성을 검증하였다.

Nondestructive instrumented indentation test is the method to evaluate the mechanical properties by analyzing load - displacement curve when forming indentation on the surface of the specimen within hundreds of micro-indentation depth. Resistance spot welded samples are known to difficult to measure the local mechanical properties due to the combination of microstructural changes with heat input. Particularly, more difficulties arise to evaluate local mechanical properties of resistance spot welds because of having narrow HAZ, as well as dramatic changed in microstructure and hardness properties across the welds. In this study, evaluation of the local mechanical properties of resistance spot welds was carried out using the characterization of Instrumented Indentation testing. Resistance spot welding were performed for 590MPa DP (Dual Phase) steels and 780MPa TRIP (Transformation Induced Plasticity) steels following ISO 18278-2 condition. Mechanical properties of base metal using tensile test and Instrumented Indentation test showed similar results. Also it is possible to measure local mechanical properties of the center of fusion zone, edge of fusion zone, HAZ and base metal regions by using instrumented indentation test. Therefore, measurement of local mechanical properties using instrumented indentation test is efficient, reliable and relatively simple technique to evaluate the tensile strength, yield strength and hardening exponent.

The microstructures and mechanical properties of Dual Phase (DP), Transformation-Induced Plasticity (TRIP), and Quenching & Partitioning (Q&P) steels were investigated in order to define the strengthening mechanism of 0.2 C steel. An intercritical annealing between Ac1 and Ac3 was conducted to produce DP and TRIP steel, followed by quenching the DP and TRIP steel being quenched at to room temperature and by the TRIP steel being austemperingaustempered-air cooling cooled the steel toat room temperature, respectively. The Q&P steel was produced from full austenization, followed by quenching to the temperature between $M_s$ and $M_f$, and then enriching the carbon to stabilize the austenite throughout the heat treatment. For the DP and TRIP steels, as the intercritical annealing temperature increased, the tensile strength increased and the elongation decreased. The strength variation was due to the amount of hard phases, i.e., martensite and bainite, respectively in the DP and TRIP steels. It was also found that the elongation also decreased with the amount of soft ferrite in the DP and TRIP steels and with the amount of the that was retained in the austenite phasein the TRIP steel, respectively for the DP and TRIP steels. For the Q&P steel, as the partitioning time increased, the elongation and the tensile strength increased slightly. This was due to the stabilized austenite that was enriched with carbon, even when the amount of retained austenite decreased as the partitioning time increased from 30 seconds to 100 seconds.
