The low-temperature deposition of BaNi_(2-x)Co_xFe₁₆O₂₇ thin films with a Ba hexaferrite structure for electromagnetic shielding was studied. The BaNi_(2-x)Co_xFe₁₆O₂₇ thin films produced through the spin spray process were suitable for thin film deposition on a flexible substrate because it crystallized well at low temperature below 90℃. The change in shielding characteristics depending on the Co content of the BaNi_(2-x)Co_xFe₁₆O₂₇ thin film was investigated, and excellent shielding characteristics with S21 of -1 dB were obtained in a wide frequency range of 26~40 GHz when the Co content was 0.4 or more. The purpose of this study is to analyze changes in shielding properties caused by change in Co content in relation to phase changes in BaNi_(2-x)Co_xFe₁₆O₂₇ and obtain basic data for developing excellent flexible electromagnetic wave shielding materials.

This study investigates the application of alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) anodization techniques on stainless steel 304L (SS304L) in an ethylene glycol and ammonium fluoride (NH4F) electrolyte solution to produce a nano-porous oxide layer. With limited research on AC anodizing of stainless steel, this study focuses on comparing AC and DC anodization in terms of current density versus time response, phase analysis using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and corrosion rate determined by linear polarization. Both AC and DC anodization were performed for 60 minutes at 50 V in an electrolyte solution containing 0.5% NH4F and 3% H₂O in ethylene glycol. The results show that AC anodization exhibited higher current density compared to DC anodization. XRD analysis revealed the presence of ferrite (α-Fe) and austenite (γ-Fe) phases in the as-received specimen, while both AC and DC anodized specimens exhibited only the γ-Fe phase. The corrosion rate of the AC-anodized specimen was measured at 0.00083 mm/year, lower than the corrosion rate of the DC-anodized specimen at 0.00197 mm/year. These findings indicate that AC anodization on stainless steel offers advantages in terms of higher current density, phase transformation, and lower corrosion rate compared to DC anodization. These results highlight the need for further investigation and exploration of AC anodization as a promising technique for enhancing the electrochemical properties of stainless steel.

The thermal behavior of $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ prepared by a co-precipitation wasinvestigated for Hz generation by the thermochemical cycle. The reduction reaction of $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ started from $480^{\circ}C$, and the weight loss was 1.6 wt% up to $1100^{\circ}C$. At this reaction, $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ was reduced by release of oxygen bonded with the $Fe^{3+}$ ion in the B site of ($CO_{0.5}$ $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$. In the $H_2O$ decomposition reaction, $H_2$ was generated by oxidationof reduced $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$. The crystal structure of $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ for reduction reaction maintained spinel structure and the lattice constant of $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ ($8.41\AA$) was enlarged to $8.45\AA$. But the lattice constant of $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ after $H_2O$ decomposition reaction did not change to $8.45\AA$. Then, $(Co_{0.5}\;Mn_{0.5})Fe_2O_4$ is excellent material in the thermochemical cyclic reaction due to release oxygen at low temperature for the reduction reaction and produce $H_2$ maintaining crystal structure for redox reaction.

Yittrium Iron Garnet(YIG) has been used as an important material in the circulator/isolator which is used in RF communication system, mobile phone, adn satellite broadcasting, etc. In this study, we investigated the microstructural and magnetic properties of YIG ferrites with the sintering temperature and additives. We fabricated the YIG ferrites substituted with Ca, In, V by the traditional ceramic sintering method at 1250$\^{C}$, 1275$\^{C}$, 1300$\^{C}$ and 1325$\^{C}$. Powders were granulated by using a spray dryer. Crystallographic and microstructural properties were measured by using XRD and SEM. Magnetic properties were measured by using a VSM for saturation magnetization (4$\pi$M$\_$s/) and FMR (Ferromagnetic Resonance) experiment for ferromagnetic resonance line width (△H). The YIG ferrite, Y$\_$1.6/Ca$\_$1.4/Fe$_4$V$\_$0.7/In$\_$0.3/O$\_$12/, sintered at 1300$\^{C}$, showed higher saturation magnetization and lower ferromagnetic resonance line width than any other sintering temperatures.

A formation and conversion of AFm phases decisively play role in the hydration, hardening and corrosion processes of various cement. In this study, the conversion of Alumino-Ferrite Monohydrates(AFm) phases under the addition of $CaCO_3,;CaCl_2;and;CaSO_4{cdot}2H_2O$was investigated by the XRD quantitative analysis. The thypical AFm phases are $M_S(monosulfoaluminate),;M_C(monocarboaluminate);and;M_{Cl}(monochloroaluminate and also Called Friedel's salts)$in this cementitious system, The conversion reaction were not occurred in $M_C-CaCO_3,;M_{Cl}-CaCO_3$ and $M_{Cl}-CaCl_2$system. However, in $M_S-CaCO_3$ system, ettringite and $monocarboaluminate(M_C)$ were formed. In $M_S-CaCl_2;system;M_S$ was transformed to Friedel's $salts(M_{Cl})$ and ettringite was formed. In the case of $CaSO_4{cdot}2H_2O$ addition, all AFm $phases(M_S,;M_C;and;M_{Cl})$ were transformed to ettringite. The order of stabilization of AFm phases under $CaCO_3,;CaCl_2;and;CaSO_4{cdot}2H_2O$ was as follows : $M_S< M_C

Effects of the microalloyed elements, temperatures and cooling rates on the strength and toughness of the medium carbon microalloyed hot forging steels obtained by air cooling(A.C.) method and the low carbon microalloyed forging steels by direct quenching(D.Q.) method were investigated. Combined additions of V+Nb produced the optimum combination of strength and toughness with ferrite-pearlite structure of the medium carbon steel by the A.C. method. 831MPa in UTS and 52.1J in toughness were obtained for 0.40c+0.12V+0.07Nb. It was martensite structure for the low carbon steel by the D.Q. method. The highest UTS and toughness obtained by Mo additions were 855MPa and 108j by 0.12C+0.10V+0.03Nb+1.13Mo respectively. Especially, the toughness of the low carbon steel was twice better than that of the medium carbon steel. 110$0^{\circ}C$was more appropriate than 120$0^{\circ}C$ for the reheating and forging temperature and 1.$2^{\circ}C$ /s was the best cooling rate from the viewpoint of the strength and toughness. Multiple regression analysis was used to quantify the influence of the microalloyed elements, temperatures and cooling rates on the strength, toughness, austenite grain size, and the pearlite interlamellar spacing.

Recently, the use of duplex stainless steel which with a two-phase microstructure (equal mixture of ferrite and austenite) has been increased in a variety of industrial fields due to higher strength leading to weight saving, greater corrosion resistance(particularly, stress corrosion cracking) and lower price. However, currently, stainless steels are not included in the structural materials of Korean Building Code and corresponding design standards are not specified. In this paper, experimental studies have been performed to investigate the structural behaviors of duplex stainless steel (STS329FLD) bolted connection with two bolts for providing the design data. Main variables are shear connection type (single shear and double shear) and end distance parallel to the direction of applied force. Fracture modes at the final step of test were classified into typical block shear fracture, tensile fracture and curling. Curling occurrence in single shear connection led to ultimate strength drop by up to 20%. Test strengths were compared with those by current design specifications such as AISC/AISI/KBC, EC3 and AIJ and proposed equations by existing studies. For specimens with no curling, Clement & Teh's equation considering the active shear plane provided a higher strength estimation accurancy and for specimens with curling, Kim & Lim's equation considering strength reduction by curling was also overly unconservative to predict the ultimate strength of curled connections.

The goal of this study is to implement a communication system that can monitor the status of the nacelle using the power cable itself, without the dedicated communication lines such as an UTP cable and optical fiber for the offshore wind turbine. An inductive coupling powerline communication system for a MW class offshore wind turbine was proposed and its communication performance was demonstrated. The inductive couplers was designed for operation at up to 500 A using a ferrite composite materials. Field test was carried out on the wind farms of Jeju island. Using the iperf communication test program, we have obtained more than 15 Mbps data transmission rate through the 100 m power cable that was installed between the nacelle and the bottom of the power converter. In the data transmission stability test for a week, there was no failure ever. The minimum transmission rate was 15 Mbps and the average data rate was about 20 Mbps. Next, we have installed an infrared camera inside the nacelle in order to measure the temperature distribution and variation of the nacelle. The real-time thermal image taken by the camera was successfully sent to the monitoring system without error.
