The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of annealing treatment on cold formability of magnesium alloy sheet AZ31. The AZ31 sheets with three different thickness (1.0t, 1.6t, 2.0t) were annealed at three different temperatures ($345^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$ and $450^{\circ}C$). The mechanical properties and microstructure evolution of the annealed AZ31 were examined as well as limit dome height (LDH) and compared with those of as received one. The cold formability was enhanced but the strength was deteriorated by the annealing treatment.

The effect of ADI heat treatment conditions on the core microstructures and mechanical properties of GCD 45 has been investigated. In the case of $25{\ss}{\AE}$ in diameter, it has been found that pearlite structure is not obtained, and the matrix is consisted of graphite, bainite and retained austenite. Upon cooling isothermally from $900^{\circ}C$, the core structure of 35 mm in diameter is converted to pearlite. However, the structure is transformed to bainite after slow cooling from $900^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties in 90% hot forged Incoloy 825 alloy. With increasing solution treatment temperature, the grain size increased and the volume fraction of total precipitates decreased, and the precipitates disappeared at $1,000^{\circ}C$. With increasing aging time at $700^{\circ}C$, the volume fraction of precipitate increased and the precipitates size increased. Most of the precipitates consist $Cr_{23}C_6$ carbide, and a small amount of TiC carbide was also observed. With decreasing solution treatment temperature and increasing aging time, tensile strength and hardness increased, and the elongation and impact value decreased. With increasing aging time, the impact value decreased sharply by the increased of the precipitate size.

Alumium alloys casting are gaining increased acceptance in the automotive and electronic industeries and squeeze casting is the most efficient method of manufacturing such mass produced parts. This study has been investigated the microstructures and mechanical properties of Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg(AC4C)alloy fabricated by squeeze casting process for development of Engine Mountain Bracket. The microstructure of squeeze casted specimen were composed of eutectic structure Alumimim solid solution and $Mg_2Si$ precipitates. The tensile strength of as-solid solution treatment Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg alloy revealed 2985MPa. It was found that Al-7.0Si-0.4Mg alloy have good aging hardening effect results are presented to show the validity of the control method.

Effect of abnormal grain growth and heat treatment time on the electrical properties of donor-doped semiconductive BaTiO$_3$ceramics was examined. La-doped BaTiO$_3$ceramics was sintered at 134$0^{\circ}C$ for different times from 10 to 600 min in order to change the volume fraction of the abnormal grains in samples. As a result, samples with different volume fraction of abnormal grain growth from 22 to 100% were prepared. The samples were annealed at 120$0^{\circ}C$ for various times. The resistivity of the sam-ples at room and above Curie temperature was examined. The complex impedance measurement as functions of the volume fraction of abnormal grains and annealing time was conducted. Separation of complex impedance semicircle was observed in a sample in which abnormal and fine grains coexist. The results are discussed from a viewpoint of microstructure-property relationship.

The dynamics and Durability of Permanent Form Mortar were observed. The results were as the followings. To construct New permanent form, this study constructed permanent form with fiber mortar. In this course glass fiber and polymer, fine aggregate were substituted with river sand and crush sand. To understand material quality effect, flexible mortar and inflexible mortar were tested. According to the microstructure of polymermatrix test by SEM, higher density by Co-matrix effect from polymer addiction was observed. This is considered to increase acid-resistanc, impact proof strenght. In the test of durability of freezing and thawing, polymer mortar was proved to be water proof. It seems to be improved in its characteristics in proportion to increasing W/C ratio. When the W/C ratio is 30%, it is most effective.

This study was performed to investigation the effect of austempering temperature on the mecanical properties and fracture Characteristic of the ductile cast iron with contains Cu and Mo. The obtained results of this study were as follows; Microstructure of austemped ductile cast iron obtained by austempering were low bainite with some martensite at $250^{\circ}C$, mixture of low and upper bainite at $300^{\circ}C$ and upper bainite at $350^{\circ}C$. With increasing austempering temperature, yield strength, tensile strength and hardness decreased, while the elongation and impact absorption energy increased. With increasing austempering temperature, fracture toughness value increased and mainly controlled by bolume fraction of retained austenite. The volume fraction of retained austenite increased and the fracture surface obtained fibrous and dimple with increasing austempering temperature.

The injection molding process is used in the fabrication of a large variety of plastic articles. A numerical simulation of the filling stage along the thickness direction is proposed by combining the free surface boundary condition with the relevant governing equations. The mathematical model is based on the equations of continuity, momentum and energy along with inelastic power-law model and relevant boundary conditions. Due to the significant implications for microstructure development in the pro duct, the fountain effect at the advancing free surface is explicitly taken into consideration in the simulation. The model yields data on free surface shape as well as velocity, pressure, temperature and shear stress distributions within the mold cavity. The rearrangement of the velocity and temperature profiles in the vicinity of the melt front is considered in detail.

The effect of initial orientation on the microstructure and texture evolution of two ferritic stainless steels was investigated. the columnar and equiaxed crystal specimens which were prepared from continuous casting slab were hot rolled annealed cold rolled and annealed respectively. The rolling and recrystallization textures at each process stage were examined by orientation distribution function (ODF) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD); The observation showed that the orientation density of the $\alpha$-fibre of hot rolled band of columnar crystal specimen was more pronounced than that of the equaxed one at the center layer. Nevertheless the cold rolled textures of Type 430 steel have demonstrated a rather similar development . Compared to Type 430 steel the development of the $\alpha$-fibre in the center layer of Type 409L steel was much more pronounced. The relation between texture evolution and ridging behaviour has been discussed.

In joining alumina ceramics to metal by using Mo-Mn metallizing process the effects of metallizing thickness, temperature, and the composition of paste on the bond strength and the microstructure of joining interface were investigated. The bond strength variation in the range of metallizing temperature, 1350~155$0^{\circ}C$ was more than 150MPa above 145$0^{\circ}C$ and the optimum metallizing thickness was 30${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The optimum contents of Mn in Mo-Mn paste was 5% due to the bond strength decrease with the increase of addition. The effect of SiO2 addition in paste on bond strength was saturated around 200MPa. It was also observed that as the particle size of Mo decreased, the joinning with higher bond strength was shown in spite of low metallizing temperature.
