In this study, the effect of scrap ratio on the mechanical properties of Zr alloys was studied. Oxygen content in the ingot cake increased rapidly with increasing fraction of scrap, which can be attributed to the surface oxide of scrap including small pieces of turning, chips, etc. Iron content did not increase much with the increasing addition of scrap, suggesting scrap materials was well reserved in the iron-free container. As-cast structure of Zr alloy with the scrap:sponge ratio displayed plate/or needle ${\alpha}$ phase and no appreciable change of the cast structure was observed with change of scrap fraction. The strength increases with increasing fraction of scrap, which can be attributed to the increase of oxygen content. The ductility decreased slightly with increase of scrap fraction. Dislocation-oxygen interaction is known to increase the strength at the expense of ductility. Ingot cake with intentionally added $Fe_2O_3$ exhibited the drastic decrease of the formability, even exhibited the brittle fracture behavior during rolling. The oxidation resistance, however, increased with the increase of scrap fraction because of high oxygen content, which may prevent more penetration and diffusion of oxygen into matrix.

By using Ni-Cr and Co-Cr alloys, porcelain fused to metal (PFM) samples were prepared to examine the interface and the surface corrosion behavior. The potentiodynamic polarization analysis showed that the corrosion current density of Co-Cr alloy ($1.61{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^2$) was three times lower than that of Ni-Cr alloy ($4.83{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^2$) at room temperature. A dental prosthesis consisting of the porcelain fused to Ni-Cr alloy extracted from a patient after approximately four years of usage was examined to assess its resistance to corrosion. OM and SEM images of the metal part revealed a typical pitting corrosion. As compared to porcelain fused to Ni-Cr alloy having a thick layer (${\sim}10{\mu}m$) of oxide at the interface, a relatively thin oxide layer (less than $5{\mu}m$) was formed on Co-Cr alloy, indicating that the interface between Co-Cr alloy and porcelain may have a better adhesion strength than the interface between Ni-Cr alloy and porcelain.

철도차량의 기계제동에 사용되는 제동 디스크의 표면에는 반복적인 마찰제동에 의해 열피로에 기인한 열균열이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 열균열은 제동성능 저하, 제동장치 유지보수비용 증가를 발생시키고 심지어는 대규모 열차사고의 원인으로 작용할 수도 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라의 새마을 및 무궁화 열차를 대상으로 고내열성을 지닌 제동 디스크 재질을 개발하기 위하여 FC280, FC250, NCM 등의 후보 재질을 선별하여 각 재질의 화학원소 성분과 비율을 결정하였다. 선별된 후보 재질로 주물 공시재를 제작하여 화학적 성분 분석, 결정 및 흑연조직 분석을 하였고 후보재질 시편에 대한 기계적 특성 시험 및 마찰특성 시험을 실시하여 현재 사용되는 제동 디스크 재질 특성과 비교하였다. 기계적 특성시험 결과 NCM이 가장 큰 인장강도를 보이나 마찰계수는 가장 작았다. 소형 다이나모 시험기에서 마찰제동 시 제동 속도 및 제동압력 변화에 대해 가장 안정적인 마찰계수를 나타내는 것은 현재의 사용품인 것으로 나타났다.

A 25kW-class polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell system has been developed for the propulsion of a leisure boat. The fuel cell system was designed to satisfy various performance requirements, such as resistance to shock, stability under rolling and pitching oscillations, and durability under salinity condition, for its marine applications. Then, the major components including a 30kW-class PEM fuel cell stack, a DC-DC converter, a seawater cooling system, secondary battery packs, and balance of plants were developed for the fuel cell system. The PEM fuel cell stack employs a unique design structure called an anodic cascade-type stack design in which the anodic cells are divided into several blocks to maximize the fuel utilization without hydrogen recirculation devices. The performance evaluation results showed that the stack generated a maximum power of 31.0kW while maintaining a higher fuel utilization of 99.5% and an electrical efficiency of 56.1%. Combining the 30-kW stack with other components, the 25kW-class fuel cell system boat was fabricated for a leisure. As a result of testing, the fuel cell system reached an electrical efficiency of 48.0% at the maximum power of 25.6kW with stable operability. In the near future, two PEM fuel cell systems will be installed in a 20-m long leisure boat to supply electrical power up to 50kW for propelling the boat and for powering the auxiliary equipments.

체결부품의 사이즈가 작아질수록 실제 접합부의 면적이 줄어들기 때문에 체결력은 감소한다. 이러한 체결부품의 체결력을 결정하는 요소는 소재(Material), 구조(Geometry), 마찰(Friction)이 있다. 본 연구에서는 체결부품의 사이즈가 줄어들면서 체결력을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법 중의 하나인 소재 변경에 대하여 연구하였다. SWCH18A 와 SUS XM7 을 적용하여 초소형 나사를 제작하였으며, 3 차원 치수 측정을 통하여 피치정밀도와 두께정밀도를 측정하였다. 비커스 경도 측정을 통하여 나사가 외부의 힘에 의해 변형에 대한 저항력을 분석하였다. 또한 파단토크 시험과 SEM 을 이용한 파단면 분석을 통해 파단특성을 분석한다.

In recent years, techniques for micro-assembly with high repeatability under a scanning electron microscope (SEM) are required to construct highly functional micro-devices. Adhesion phenomenon is more significant for smaller objects, becanse adhesional force is proportional to size of the objects while gravitational force is proportional to the third power of it. It is also known that adhesional force between micro-objects exposed to Electron Beam irradiation of SEM increases with the elapsed time. Therefore, mechanical manipulation techniques using a needle-shaped tool by adhesional force are often adopted in basic researches where micro-objects are studied. These techniques, however, have not yet achieved the desired repeatability because many of these could not have been supported theoretically. Some techniques even need the process of trial-and-error. Thus, in this paper, mechanical and adhesional micro-manipulation are analyzed theoretically by introducing new physical factors, such as adhesional force and rolling-resistance, into the kinematic system consisting of a sphere, a needle-shaped tool, and a substrate. Through this analysis, they are revealed that how the micro-sphere behavior depends on the given conditions, and that it is possible to cause the fracture of the desired contact interfaces selectively by controlling the force direction in which the tool-tip loads to the sphere. Based on the acquired knowledge, a mode diagram, which indicates the micro-sphere behavior for the given conditions, is designed. By refening to this mode diagram, the practical technique of the pick and place manipulation of a micro-sphere under an SEM by the selective interface fracture is proposed.

Recently, in order to enhance the function and usefulness of products, cladding of dissimilar materials that maximizes the performance of the material is being widely used in all areas of industry as an important process. Clad steel plate, produced by cladding stainless steel plate, an anticorrosive material, on carbon steel plate, is being used to produce pressure vessels. Stainless steel plate has good corrosion resistance, and carbon steel plate has good rigidity and strength; clad steel can satisfy all of these qualities at once. This study aims to find the ${\delta}$-ferrite behavior, mechanical properties, structure change, integrity and reliability of clad steel weld on hot rolled steel plates. For this purpose, multi-layer welding, repair welding and post weld heat treatment were implemented according to welding procedure specifications (WPS). In order to observe the mechanical properties and toughness of clad steel weld zone, post weld heat treatment was carried out according to ASME Sec. VIII Div.1 UW-40 procedure for post weld heat treatment. With heat treatment at $625^{\circ}C$, the hold time was used as the process variable, increased by intervals that were doubled each time, from 80 to 1,280 min. The structure of weld part was typical cast structure; localized primary austenite areas appeared near central vermicular ferrite and fusion line. The heat affected zone showed rough austenite structure created by the weld heat input. Due to annealing effects of heat treatment, the mechanical properties (tensile strength, hardness, impact value) of the heat affected area tended to decrease. From the results of this study, it is possible to conclude the integrity of clad steel welds is not affected much in field welding, repair welding, multi-layer welding, post weld heat treatment, etc.

Antiroll-bar Assembly는 철도 차량의 롤링을 제어하도록 설계된 정밀 부품이고 안전과 편안한 승차감을 위해 중요하다. Antiroll-bar Assembly의 주부품인 토션바는 소모품으로써 프랑스에서 전량 수입되고 있다. 따라서 비용절감과 성능향상을 위해 국내 환경에 적합한 토션바 국산화 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 국내 철도에서 측정된 로드 히스토그램을 활용하여 개발된 토션바에 대한 해석 및 시험을 진행하였고, 수입품과의 비교 시험 결과 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 또한 토션바의 부식현상을 방지하기 위해서 스테인리스강 소재의 Ring cover를 씌울 수 있도록 설계를 변경하였다. 변경된 설계 안전성은 CAE해석과 마모시험을 통해서 검증하였다. 이 결과 설계변경에 의한 정적 및 피로에 대한 안전성은 큰 차이가 없었다. 그리고 2종류의 스테인리스강 중에서 내마모성이 우수한 소재를 채택하였다.

열간 압연을 거친 $800^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온 철강 판재는 일반적으로 다중 봉상 수분류(multiple circular water jets)에 의해서 급속 냉각된다. 이 과정은 소재의 온도가 냉각수의 끓는점보다 훨씬 높기 때문에 소재 표면과 냉각수 사이에 막비등 열전달 현상이 발생하며 소재 표면에 매우 얇은 증기층이 형성되며, 이 증기층은 소재와 냉각수의 열교환을 방해하는 중요한 열저항으로 작용한다. 본 문제에는 비등 열전달 이외에도 소재 표면에 쌓이는 체류수의 자유표면 유동, 소재의 고속 주행 등 복잡한 물리현상들이 복합적으로 작용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 모든 물리현상들을 동시에 고려할 수 있는 해석 절차를 적용하여 일정한 속도로 주행하는 고온 철강 판재의 상하부 동시 냉각 과정을 3 차원 수치해석 하였으며, 소재 상부 및 하부 면의 냉각 특성을 비교하였다.
