Dynamic deformation behavior of ultra-fine-grained pure coppers fabricated by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was investigated in this study. Dynamic torsional tests were conducted on four copper specimens using a torsional Kolsky bar, and then the test data were analyzed by their microstructures and tensile properties. The 1-pass ECAP'ed specimen consisted of fine dislocation cell structures elongated along the ECAP direction, which were changed to very fine, equiaxed subgrains of 300~400 nm in size as the pass number increased. The dynamic torsional test results indicated that maximum shear stress increased with increasing ECAP pass number. Adiabatic shear bands were not found at the gage center of the dynamically deformed torsional specimen of the 1- or 4-pass ECAP'ed specimen, while some weak bands were observed in the 8-pass ECAP'ed specimen. These findings suggested that the grain refinement according to the ECAP was very effective in strengthening of pure coppers, and that ECAP'ed coppers could be used without serious reduction in fracture resistance under dynamic torsional loading as adiabatic shear bands were hardly formed.

In this study, the high-temperature oxidation properties of austenitic 316L stainless steel manufactured by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is investigated and compared with conventional 316L manufactured by hot rolling (HR). The initial microstructure of LPBF-SS316L exhibits a molten pool ~100 ㎛ in size and grains grown along the building direction. Isotropic grains (~35 ㎛) are detected in the HR-SS316L. In high-temperature oxidation tests performed at 700℃ and 900℃, LPBF-SS316L demonstrates slightly superior high-temperature oxidation resistance compared to HR-SS316L. After the initial oxidation at 700℃, shown as an increase in weight, almost no further oxidation is observed for both materials. At 900℃, the oxidation weight displays a parabolic trend and both materials exhibit similar behavior. However, at 1100℃, LPBF-SS316L oxidizes in a parabolic manner, but HR-SS316L shows a breakaway oxidation behavior. The oxide layers of LPBF-SS316L and HR-SS316L are mainly composed of Cr₂O₃, Fe-based oxides, and spinel phases. In LPBF-SS316L, a uniform Cr depletion region is observed, whereas a Cr depletion region appears at the grain boundary in HR-SS316L. It is evident from the results that the microstructure and the high-temperature oxidation characteristics and behavior are related.

This study focuses on the microstructural development of 99% magnesium alloy sheet manufactured using twin roll casting (TRC) process. Herein, a plate with a thickness of 5 mm was manufactured using the TRC process, homogenization heat treatment was performed at 400℃ for 2-32 h, and finally, the change in microstructure was evaluated via optical microscopy and textural analysis. The results suggest that the plate manufactured using the TRC process was not destroyed and was successfully rolled into a plate. Microscopic observation suggested that the dendritic cast structure was arranged along the rolling direction. And the central layer of the rolled plate, where was present in a liquid state at the beginning of rolling, solidified later during the TRC process to form central segregation. The initial cast structure and inhomogeneous structure of the plate were recrystallized by homogenization heat treatment for only 2 h, and it was confirmed that the segregated part of the central layer became homogeneous and recrystallization occurred. Grain growth occurred as the heat treatment time increased, and secondary recrystallization occurred, wherein only some grains were grown. The textural analysis, which was conducted via X-ray diffraction, confirmed that the relatively weak basal plane texture developed using the TRC process was formed into a random texture after heat treatment.

Wood veneer-bamboo zephyr composite board (WBCB) was manufactured to evaluate the properties of bamboo as alternative raw materials for the manufacture of composite panels. Bamboo zephyr was prepared using Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubesens Mazel. et Z), Giant timber bamboo (Phyllostachys bambusoides Sieb. et Zucc), and Hachiku bamboo (Phyllostachys nigra var. henosos Stapf). The effect of age and species of bamboo on zephyr production was investigated in terms of the pass number of bamboo split through the rollers, and the width increasing rate of bamboo split. Five-ply WBCBs were produced with Keruing veneers as face and back layers, leading to three layers of bamboo zephyr sheets as core layer. Each layer was placed so that its grain direction was at right angles to that of the adjacent layer and the layers were bonded together with phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin.The pass number of bamboo split was increased with an increase of the thickness of culm wall. At the same thickness, Moso bamboo showed no effect of the age of bamboo on the pass number. The pass number of split of Giant timber bamboo was lower than that of Moso bamboo. No significant effect of bamboo species and age on the width of zephyr produced was observed. The width of zephyr obtained could be expressed as a function of diameter multiplied by thickness of culm wall. The physical and mechanical properties of WBCB manufactured in all given conditions did not show any significant differences, and they were above the requirement of Korean Standard (KS).

TiN coatings were applied for VarIOUS application fields, because of a good wear-resistance and a high hardness. Typically, TiN thin films show the hardness of 25GPa and friction coefficient of 0.6. However, in many field, one is looking for a more improved tool which has low friction coefficient and high wear resistance. The main motivation of this study is to characterize the influence of copper dopant content on TiN thin films. Ti-Cu-N thin films were deposited onto D2 steel substrates by PVD processing with various magnetron current densities (Cu contents). In this work, we synthesized titanium nitride films similar with reported typical titanium nitride films and synthesized Ti-Cu-N thin films with the addition of elemental copper which is measured improved hardness more than pure TiN films with copper content variables. This films has preferred oriented films of (111) direction. In addition, It was found that there is a strong correlation between content of various metal and film characteristics such as preferred orientation, grain size, hardness and friction coefficient and so, in future study, improved mechanical properties of TiN films can be controlled by change in target current density. The Ti-Cu-N film will show apparent hardness improvement and mechanical properties enhancement, when doping element is added onto TiN thin films. Film structure, chemical composition, mechanical properties were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS), wear resistance tester and nanohardness tester.

In the hope of realizing carbon neutrality, Korea has established the goal of expanding the supply of hydrogen electric vehicles through a roadmap to revitalize the hydrogen economy. A prerequisite for successful supply expansion is securing the safety of hydrogen electric vehicles. Certain parts, such as the hydrogen transport pipe and tank, in hydrogen electric vehicles are exposed to high-pressure hydrogen gas over long periods of time, so the hydrogen enters the grain boundary of material, resulting in a degradation of the parts referred to as hydrogen embrittlement. In addition, since the safety of parts utilizing hydrogen varies depending on the type of material used and its environmental characteristics, the necessity for the enactment of a hydrogen embrittlement regulation has emerged and is still being discussed as a Global Technical Regulation (GTR). In this paper, we analyze a hydrogen compatibility material evaluation method discussed in GTR and present a direction for the development of Korean-type hydrogen compatibility material evaluation methods.

Recently, soybean production and market price are unstable, even if demand of soybean is maintained. Diverse conditions such as climate change, a decrease in rural population, and consuming affect food industry. In this situation, food security is soaring as important key-word again, and MAFRA is promoting policies for improving soybean self-sufficiency with the goal of 40% until 2030. The point of policy is to extend a production and stabilize a demand for soybean with supporting large-scale soybean paddy-field complex. According to the background, soybean breeding and production research in NICS are proceeded with three parts. First, production improvement with soybean cultivation land enlargement and high-yield cultivar development. Various growth period soybean cultivars for double cropping, irrigation management technologies in paddy field, and hyper-yield and specific-region adaptable cultivar development. Second, reduction of production expense with mechanized cultivation and digital-based field management technologies. Third, consumer-friendly and high quality soybeans with high protein cultivar for alternative protein usage and high food process-ability for soy milk, tofu, soybean sprouts, and grain usage. Each part need to be combined and advanced to improve soybean industry and soybean self-sufficiency.

Corrosion behaviors of laser-welded super duplex stainless steel (SDSS) tubes after exposure to an actual power plant environment for one year and those of fin-tube welded SDSS were evaluated. Results showed that corrosion damage on the back side of the SDSS tube in the direction of hot air was higher than that on the front side regardless of weldment location. However, corrosion damage showed no difference between weldment and base metal due to recovery of phase fraction in the weldment through post weld heat treatment (PWHT). Nevertheless, the SDSS tube showed severe corrosion damage along grain boundary due to surface phase transformation (δ → γ) and Cr₂N precipitation caused by PWHT with a high N₂ atmosphere. Corrosion resistance of the SDSS tube was recovered when degraded surface was removed. Corrosion sensitivity of a fin-tube increased significantly due to pre-existing crevice, unbalanced phase fraction, and σ phase precipitation adjacent to the fusion line. Although corrosion resistance was improved by recovered phase fraction and sufficient dissolution of σ phase during PWHT, corrosion reaction was concentrated at the pre-existing crevice. These results suggest that welding conditions for fin-tube steel should be optimized to improve corrosion resistance by removing pre-existing crevice in the weldment.

자갈해빈에 대한 태풍의 영향력을 조사하기 위하여 태종대 감지 자갈해빈에서 2018년 10월에 내습한 태풍 '콩레이'와 2019년 7월의 태풍 '다나스'에 대하여 VRS-GPS, 드론 측량을 수행하였다. 감지해빈의 전반적인 퇴적물 분포를 파악하기 위해서 입도분석을 하였으며, 자갈해빈의 회복력을 확인하기 위해 주기적으로 감지해빈의 지형측량을 수행하였다. 감지해빈의 자갈퇴적물은 서쪽에서 동쪽으로 갈수록 평균 -6.2Φ에서 -5.4Φ로 세립해지며, 해안선의 수직방향으로는 포말대(swash zone)에서 상대적으로 세립한 구형의 퇴적물(-4.5Φ)이, 범(berm)에서는 상대적으로 조립하고 편평한 퇴적물(-5Φ - -6Φ)이 나타난다. 감지 자갈해빈은 특징적으로 2열의 범을 갖는데, 해빈의 전방에 정상조건에서 형성되는 하부 범(lower berm)과 약 10 m 후방에 상부 범(upper berm)이 존재한다. 태풍 콩레이 내습 후 감지해빈은 육지쪽에 위치한 상부 범에서 약 1.4 m의 침식이 발생하여 상부 범이 사라졌고, 상부 범의 배후지에서는 평균 약 50 cm 침식되어 그 고도가 낮아졌으나, 하부 범에서의 침식은 관찰되지 않았다. 한편 상대적으로 위력이 약한 태풍 다나스의 경우, 내습 직후 감지해빈은 하부 범과 상부 범에서 침식이 발생하여 평균 80 cm 높이의 퇴적물이 침식되었으나, 반면 배후지에서는 50 cm 높이의 퇴적이 확인되었다. 하지만 내습 후 하부 범에서 빠른 속도로 퇴적이 발생하여 내습 약 3일내에 소실되었던 하부 범이 생성되었다. 이러한 결과는 감지 자갈해빈이 태풍에 의한 지형변화가 일시적으로 발생하지만, 이후 정상조건에서 태풍 이전의 지형으로 매우 빠르게 회복됨을 시사한다. 따라서 자갈해빈의 경우 태풍침식에 대한 복원력이 매우 뛰어나다고 평가된다.

볼트 간격에 따른 국내산 낙엽송 집성재 이중 볼트접합부의 내력성능을 검토하기 위하여 휨 type 전단강도실험을 실시하였다. 전단시편은 강판삽입형 볼트접합부 시편으로서 볼트구멍은 볼트직경(12 mm, 16 mm), 볼트 개수(단일 볼트 : Control, 이중 볼트), 볼트 열 방향(섬유평행 : Type-A, 섬유직교 : Type-B) 그리고 볼트 간격(Type-A : 4 d, 7 d, Type-B : 3 d, 5 d)을 달리하여 제작하였다. 조건에 따른 볼트접합부의 강도성능과 파괴형상을 비교, 검토하였다. 설계표준(KBCS, 2000)시 볼트간격이 감소된 기준허용전단내력에 대한 저감계수를 산출하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 단일 볼트접합부와 Type-A의 이중 볼트접합부의 볼트 한 개당 지압응력은 볼트의 직경, 볼트 간격과 비례 관계를 보여주었다. Type-B의 지압응력은 볼트의 직경이 증가할 때 감소하였고, 볼트 간격이 증가할 때 2~10% 정도 감소하였다. 2) 단일 볼트접합부와 Type-A의 이중 볼트접합부의 파괴형상은 연단거리 방향으로 할렬파단이 일어났다. Type-B의 경우 볼트간격이 3 d일 때 인장부위 볼트가 압축부위 볼트보다 더 굴곡되었고 인장부위볼트에서 할렬파단이 시작되었다. 5 d 시편의 경우 인장부위와 압축부위 볼트의 굴곡은 비슷하게 나타났으며, 압축부위볼트에서 할렬파단이 시작되었다. 3) 설계표준시 기준볼트 간격(Type A : 7 d, Type B : 5 d)에 따른 항복하중을 무차원화시켜 저감계수를 산출하였다. 12 mm 볼트접합부의 경우 Type-A인 볼트 간격 4d와 단일 볼트접합부의 저감계수는 각각 0.87, 0.55였고 Type-B인 볼트 간격 3 d와 단일 볼트접합부의 저감계수는 0.91, 0.55였다. 16 mm 볼트접합부의 경우 Type-A인 볼트 간격 4 d와 단일 볼트접합부의 저감계수는 0.96, 0.76이었고 Type-B인 볼트 간격 3 d, 단일 볼트접합부의 저감계수는 0.91, 0.77이었다.
