In order to investigate the solidification characteristics of CV. graphite cast iron, decantation technique and thermal analysis test were used. Solidification characteristics were studied in the specimens with various compositions and graphite shape. The results were as follows; 1. The first surface solidifcation layer is formed along the mold wall by the growth of austenite dendrites in hypoeutectic composition and thin solid film in hypereutectic composition. 2. The mushy degree of solidifcation of hypereutiectic composition is higher than that of hypoeutectic. 3. In hypoeutectic, the effect of change of the mushy degree of solidification on the graphite shape is small, however, in hypereutectic the mushy degree of solidification becomes higher in order of flake, CV, and spheroidal graphite cast iron.

The effect of the mold preheat temperature on the solidification crack strength was investigated in AC2B aluminum alloy. A tension type apparatus as part of a solidification crack test which could measure the stress-strain relationship quantitatively was utilized. The evaluation of the solidification crack strength with varying mold preheat temperatures was performed by the test procedure established in this research. When the mold preheat temperatures were $250^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$, the solidification crack strengths were found to be $7.8Kgf/cm^2$, $12.9Kgf/cm^2$ and $28.6Kgf/cm^2$, respectively. In the same way, when the mold preheat temperatures were $250^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$, the corresponding temperatures of the failure sites were $610^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$ and $571^{\circ}C$, and the calculated solid fractions were 14.0%, 29.3% and 50.8% when the specimens failed, respectively. The solidification crack strength increased in proportion to the solid fraction of the failure site. The solidification crack strength obtained in this test is assumed to reflect the effects of metallurgical factors on the thermo-plastic characteristics of a solidifying alloy such as the grain size of the solid, the grain morphology, and the distribution of solid grain.

A computer program has been developed for analyzing the two-dimensional, unsteady conservation equations for transport phenomena in the molten region of twin-roll continuous casting in order to predict the turbulent velocity, temperature fields, and solidification process of the molten steel. The energy equation of the cooling roll is solved simultaneously with the conservation equations of molten steel in order to consider heat transfer through the cooling roll. The results show the velocity, temperature and solidification pattern in the molten region with roll temperature as a function of time. The results for velocity and temperature fields with solidification are compared with those without solidification, giving different thermofluid characteristics in the molten region. We also investigated the effects of revolutional speed of roll, superheat and nozzle geometry on the turbulent flow, temperature and solidification in the molten steel and temperature fields in the cooling roll.

Many researchers have studied the eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron qualitatively. However quantative studies have not been done. The type of eutectic solidification of CV Graphite Cast Iron treated with CG Alloy (Fe-Si-Mg-5Ti-Ca-Ce) was studied quantitatively through M.D.E. value (Mushy Degree of Eutectic Solidification) = $t_2/t_1)$, where $t_1$ is the difference of the eutectic solidification starting time between surface and center part of the casting sample, and $t_2$ is the time of eutectic solidification of the center part. Following results were obtained. (1) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron lies between that of spheroidal graphite and that of flake graphite cast iron but is closer to that of Flake graphite cast iron. (2) The M.D.E. value of CV graphite cast iron depends upon CV ratio. (3) The time required for eutectic solidification increases as graphite form is changed from Flake, CV. to spheroidal graphite. (4) The M.D.E. value increases as cooling rate increases.

Increased quantities of sewage sludge coupled with stringent regulations make it important to develope alternatives for residuals management. The use of PARAFIX as a solidifying agent for sewage sludge was investigated by several tests. Basic physicochemical characteristics, strength, permeability, and leaching characteristics were examined. PARAFIX was found to be very effective in reducing permeability, increasing strength, and immobilizing heavy metals. Based on the tests, it Is ascertained that PARAFIX enhances the solidification of sewage sludge. Also sewage sludge solidified with PARAFIX may be used effectively for construction materials.

Microstructural characteristics of directionally solidified René 80 superalloy are investigated with optical microscope and scanning electron microscope; solidification velocity is found to change from 25 to 200 μm/s under the condition of constant thermal gradient (G) and constant alloy composition (Co). Based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement, γ phase (1,322 ℃), MC carbide (1,278 ℃), γ/γ' eutectic phase (1,202 ℃), and γ' precipitate (1,136 ℃) are formed sequentially during cooling process. The size of the MC carbide and γ/γ' eutectic phases gradually decrease with increasing solidification velocity, whereas the area fractions of MC carbide and γ/γ' eutectic phase are nearly constant as a function of solidification velocity. It is estimated that the area fractions of MC carbide and γ/γ' eutectic phase are determined not by the solidification velocity but by the alloy composition. Microstructural characteristics of René 80 superalloy after solid solution heat-treatment and primary aging heat-treatment are such that the size and the area fraction of γ' precipitate are nearly constant with solidification velocity and the area fraction of γ/γ' eutectic phase decreases from 1.7 % to 0.955 %, which is also constant regardless of the solidification velocity. However, the size of carbide solely decreases with increasing solidification velocity, which influences the tensile properties at room temperature.

Polycrystalline Al-Cu ribbons were produced by planar flow casting(PFC). Solidification behavior and microstructual changes of the ribbons have been investigated as a function of ribbon thickness and processing parameters. The solidification front velocity, V varies within the ribbon, decreasing with increasing the distance, S from the wheel-contact surface, as $V=17.6S^{-1}$. In Al-4.5wt%Cu alloy, rapid decrease in solidification velocity toward the free surface causes a change in solidification morphology from planar to cellular, and finally, to dendritic. The length and inclination of columnar grains solidified with planar front were related to the wheel velocity. The transition from particulate degenerate eutectic structure to regular lamellar eutectic structure was observed to be caused by a difference of the relative growth velocites of ${\alpha}-Al$ and ${\theta}$ during solidification in the Al-Cu eutectic alloy.

To perform the permanent disposal of metal hydroxide waste from electro-kinetic decontamination, it is necessary to secure the technology for its solidification. The integrity tests on the fabricated solidification should also meet the criteria of the Korea Radioactive Waste Agency. We carried out the solidification of metal hydroxide waste using cement solidification. The integrity tests such as the compressive strength, immersion, leach, and irradiation tests on the fabricated cement solidifications were performed. It was also confirmed that these requirements of the criteria of Korea Radioactive Waste Agency on these cement solidifications were met. The microstructures of all the cement solidifications were analyzed and discussed.

This experimental study was carried out to investigate the solidification characteristics of polystyrene added styronaphthalene pattern materials using various castability test methods. The styronaphthalene showed an excellent filling capacity and shaping behavior having about 0.2 mm meniscus radius. The shell thickness of styronaphthalene showing smooth wall at the solid/liquid interface increased with the increasing of polystyrene addition. The solidification microstructure of styronaphthalene showed a typical thin ribbon reinforced composite structure, which has fibrous amorphous skeleton of polystyrene and crystalline naphthalene. From the results of this study, it was found that the polystyrene added styronaphthalene showed a precision shaping behavior as disposable pattern material under the atmospheric condition.

This study is about penetrability of Micro Cement(MC) used for ground improvement. In this study, the characteristics of chemical grouting such as solidification, penetrability were analyzed experimentally by changing permeability of ground, grain size and relative density of grout material. For evaluating applicability of grout material, solidification test and penetrability test were performed. From the results of the tests, effective solidification ratio and penetrability ratio of MC was each 75%, 86% to be excellent when ground permeability was in the range of 10$^{-2}$ and 10$^{-4}$ cm/sec. Otherwise, those of Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) were both lower than 50% to be poor. When penetrability of grout material is needed for improvement of dam foundation and soft ground, application of MC Is much superior to that of the other materials. The results of the grouting tests in the water flowing ground show that solidification effect of long gel-time grout material is excellent as injection pressure increases when groundwater velocity is relatively low. But when groundwater velocity is relatively high, solidification effect of long gel-time grout material is very poor because most grout materials are outflowed. Therefore, as groundwater velocity is high, effective solidification ratio of long gel-time grout material is better than that of short gel-time grout material, also penetration distance of long gel-time grout material is longer than that of short gel-time grout material.
