Filter hardness is important to filter and cigarette manufactures because it is directly related to the ability of a plugmaker during making filter and to the acceptability of the filter by the consumer. In general, glycerol triacetate(Triacetin, TA) is the currently used common plasticizer in making filters from cellulose acetate tow and the effect of triacetin on hardness of filter which is made of mono cellulose acetate tow was well known. But unfortunately, the effect of triacetin on the hardness of cellulose acetate filter containing ativated carbon(carbon filter) was not reported so far. In this study, we manufactured filters with various carbon content at different triacetin concentrations and then analyzed the filter hardness and pressure drop. Filter hardness was directly increased with triacetin concentration but pressure drop was not affected and the effect of carbon content on filter hardness was smaller than that of triacetin concentration. However, pressure drop was directly increased with carbon content.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of midsole hardness of running shoe on muscle fatigue and impact force during distance running. Method: Ten healthy college recreational runners who were performing distance running at least three times a week participated in this experiment. They were asked to run for 15 minutes in the treadmill at 10 km/h with running shoes having three different types of midsole hardness (Soft, Medium, Hard). EMG signal and insole pressure were collected during the first and last one minute for each running trials. Data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures. Results: Midsole hardness did not affect the consistency of stride length. For the median frequency of the EMG signal, only VL was affected by midsole hardness; that of medium was greater than other midsoles (p<.05). The loading rate of impact forces increased by midsole hardness (p<.01). Conclusion: Although soft midsole could attenuate impact forces at heel contact, it might have a negative effect on the fatigue of muscle which could decelerate the body after heel contact. Therefore, it is necessary to select the optimum hardness of midsole carefully for both reduction impact forces and muscle fatigue.

Effect of Notch Shape and Hardness Ratio on Characteristics of Impact Fracture in Dual Phase Steels. In this study, it is investigated the effect of notch shape and hardness ratio on the characteristics of impact fracture in dual phase steels. The impact test was carried out at the temperature range from -40.deg. C to room temperature with Instrumented Charpy Impact Tester. The main results obtained are as follows; 1, The maximum impact bending strength (.sigma.$_{max}$) increases with the tensile strength. Also, the impact energy depends on .sigma.$_{max}$. 2, In room temperature, the impact energy depends on crack-initiation energy (E$_{i}$) in case of the high hardness ratio (R=3.4), whereas depends on crack-propagation energy (E$_{p}$) in case of the low hardness ratio (R=1.8) and the dependence of crack-initiation energy of the impact characteristics decreases with increasing test temperature. These phenomena are result from the difficulty of cleavage facet formation.ion.ion.

In this study, the effect of hot-stamping heat treatment on the microstructure and hardness of TWB(Tailor Welded Blank) laser joints in Al-Si-coated boron steel and Zn-coated DP(Dual Phase)590 steel was investigated. In the TWB joints without heat treatment, hardness profiles showed local hardness deviation near the fusion zone. However, there was no hardness deviation in the heat treated specimen and its hardness was higher than that of the one without the heat treatment, due to a fully martensite microstructure. In the TWB joints of both the boron and DP steels, the maximum hardnesses were observed at the HAZ(Heat Affected Zone) near the base metal, and the hardness decreased gradually to the base metal. In the heat treated joints, the hardnesses of the HAZ and the base metal of the boron steel side were similar to the maximum hardness of the weld, while those of the HAZ and the base metal of the DP steel side were higher than the maximum hardness.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of hot forging on the hardness and impact value of ultra high carbon low alloy steel. With increasing hot forging ratio, thickness of the network and acicular proeutectoid cementite decreased, and than were broken up into particle shapes, when the forging ratio was 80%, the network and acicular shape of the as-cast state disappeared. Interlamellar spacing and the thickness of eutectoid cementite decreased with increasing forging ratio, and were broken up into particle shapes, which then became spheroidized. With increasing hot forging ratio, hardness, tensile strength, elongation and impact value were not changed up 50%, and then hardness rapidly decreased, while impact value rapidly increased. Hardness and impact value was greatly affected by the disappeared of network and acicular shape of proeutectoid cementite, and became particle shape than thickness reduction of proeutectoid and eutectoid cementite.

The effect of batch annealing conditions and austenitizing temperatures on the hardness and microstructural factors were examined by using 420J2 martensitic stainless steel. In spite of the similler hardness after batch annealing, the difference in hardness at the same austenitizing temperature was caused by changes in dissolved carbon during batch annealing. The highest hardness of the specimen was obtained at the batch annealing temperature of $820^{\circ}C$ and austenitizing temperature of $1050^{\circ}C$. The main factor affecting the final hardness of the cold annealed 420J2 specimen was proved to the austenitizing temperature rather than batch annealing temperature.

In this paper, a change of fracture toughness and hardness in PZT-PYW ceramics system before and after poling treatment was measured to investigate the effect of composition on the mechanical properties in PZT-PYW ceramics. The hardness of the PZT-PYW ceramics increased with increasing mole fraction of PYW. The fracture toughness achieved maximum values for x=0.03. Both of the hardness and the fracture toughness also increased with poling treatment. The variation of both hardness and fracture toughness with increasing PYW mole fracture was explained by the change in microstructures such as grain size and second phase. The difference in hardness and fracture toughness in the electrically poled and unpoled specimens was also explained on the bases of internal stress.

This study was investigated the effect of subzero treatment in austempered ductile cast iron. Retained austenite transformed to martensite by subzero treatment and strain. With decreasing subzero treatment temperature and increasing strain, retained austenite transformed more to martensite and transformed 30% above by subzero treatment at $-196^{\circ}C$. With decreasing subzero treatment temperature, the value of strength and ratio of increasing of strength, hardness and ratio of increasing of hardness increased but the value of elongation and ratio of decreasing of elongation decreased. With decreasing subzero treatment temperature, impact value and ratio of decreasing of impact value decreased. In case of subzero treatment at $-196^{\circ}C$, hardness value increased about 18% and impact value decreased above 20%. We could find that in subzero treated specimens had a little of effect on the tensile properties but had very much effect on the hardness and value of the impact.

The various process parameters of thermal spray process affects on quality of Ni-based coatings. Thus, there is need to analyze the effect of process parameters on quality of Ni-based coatings. In this paper, the effects of process parameters on hardness and wear rate of Ni-based coatings were investigated using 4 design of experiments. First, the Ni-based coatings were fabricated according to $L_9(3^4)$ orthogonal array. The hardness tests and the wear tests were performed on the Ni-based coatings. The analysis of variance for the hardness and wear rate were carried out. As a results, the acetylene gas flow and the powder feed rate were identified as main factors effected on the hardness and the oxygen gas flow and the acetylene gas flow were identified as main factors effected on the wear rate. The full factorial experiments design with different levels was applied for investigation of effect of these main factors.
