Abstract
The tensile fracture behavior of an Al-bearing TWIP steel was investigated by conducting a series of tensile tests on smooth and notched specimens with different notch geometries, focusing on the effects of evolution of the stress triaxiality and the effective strain during deformation. The flow curve and digital image correlation..... More

Abstract
The effect of powder processing on the microstructure and sinterability of the heavy alloy W-Ni-Cu was investigated. The heavy alloy powders were prepared by the ball milling and hydrogen reduction of metal oxide powders. As the milling time increased, the size of the powder mixture decreased and at 5 h..... More

Abstract
Ti6Al4V is commonly used in implants because of its excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. While Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is typically used for strong biological bonding between Ti6Al4V implants and bone tissue, this study takes a different approach by incorporating Equine Bone (EB), which has a chemical structure similar to.....

Abstract
A Cu-based paste containing Cu formate and Cu particles was prepared for the compressionassisted sinter-bonding of Cu-finished wide-bandgap power devices onto a Cu-finished substrate at a relatively low bonding temperature of 250 oC in air. A mixture of Cu formate and Cu particles was designed to mitigate the tremendous volume..... More

Abstract
AlN-MgO composites with different compositions were prepared by spark plasma sintering, and the effects of their composition on their microstructure, thermal properties, and mechanical properties were systemically investigated. MgO compositions in the AlN-MgO composites were controlled from 20 to 80 wt%. The results indicated that a phase transition did not..... More

Abstract
This study explores Mg-composition dependent cycle stability in a Zn_1-xMg_xO Li-ion battery, where battery cycles transition from an electronic transport-limited to an ionic transport limited regime. We investigated the impact of Mg doping in Zn_1-xMg_xO nanocrystals on Li-ion battery performance, focusing on Mg compositions between x=0.05 and x=0.15. Mg composition..... More

Abstract
Because n-type Bi₂Te₃-based materials exhibit lower thermoelectric performance than p-type materials and because their thermoelectric properties are sensitively changed by the composition and carrier concentration, optimizing these aspects in n-type materials is necessary to improve the thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT). In this study, the thermoelectric performance of n-type Bi₂Te₃-based..... More

Abstract
Archaeological excavations in Buyeo had revealed Bronze vessels interred within a hole in the building at the Gwanbuk-ri site. These bronze vessels are dated to the Unified silla period (9-10th centuries). To identify the bronze vessels’ manufacturing technology, metallurgical analyses were carried out using Optical Microscopy, SEM-EDS and EPMA. The..... More

Abstract
In this study, we designed and manufactured a new Fe-bearing Al-10Si-Mg casting alloy (F alloy) and investigated its microstructure, mechanical properties, and thermal conductivity. Two types of Fe-bearing Al-10Si-Mg alloys were used: the Conventional-F alloy, injected at 720 ℃ and cooled by water quenching, and the Superheated-F alloy, heated to..... More
