Therefore, their material composition basically decides the sound quality and decay time rather than the skill of the player. In this study, specimens of cymbals to which Titanium, Zirconium and Iron were added were prepared. From the difference of diffraction rings by synchrotron radiation X-rays, the crystal structure of the specimens of cymbals prepared by various manufacturing processes was analyzed in order to investigate the relationship between the crystal structure associated with the material and manufacturing process used and the damping of the sound of cymbals. As a result, it was found that the changes in the crystal structure were due to the manufacturing process used. In addition, it was clarified that the changes affected the damping of the sound of cymbals.

C alloy) for the improvement of severe accident assessment methodology for sodium-cooled fast reactors. In this study, the viscosities of the molten nickel (Ni) and stainless steel (SUS316L) were measured by the oscillating crucible method to confirm the performance of the viscosity measurement apparatus as a first step. The viscosities of molten Ni and SUS316L melts were measured up to 1823 K. It was found that the measured viscosity values of molten Ni and SUS316L were estimated from the deviation of the experimental data, were 
4% and 3%, respectively. It was also found that those of molten Ni and SUS316L were close to those of the literature values of molten Ni and similar composite stainless steels. Moreover, we tentatively measured the viscosity of molten SUS316L-5 mass%BC alloy. The fitted results of the viscosity for molten Ni and SUS316L were obtained.

We have found the transient intermediate phase between the solid solution and hydride phases of LaNiSn under non-equilibrium hydrogen pressure condition at room temperature. LaNiSn has transformed into the hydride through three phase co-existing state. The hydrogen content of the intermediate phase estimated from the unit cell volume is independent of the induced hydrogen gas pressure. The variation of lattice constants indicate that the hydrogen atoms are located at the La
Ni(Ni,Sn) octahedron and La(Ni,Sn) tetrahedron in the intermediate phase.

The applicability of multi-axis residual stress field into SCC tests was evaluated. The hard sphere ball was stuffed into small flat-plate of type 304SS. Numerical analysis was conducted in order to compare with the experimental results. The numerical analysis was comparatively in agreement with the experimental results. Parameters of the test were selected by numerical analysis to optimize the residual stress of specimen. SCC test in MgCl was performed using the specimen with optical residual stress condition. It is confirmed that the multi-axis residual stress field was useful in quick and quantitative SCC test by comparing the initiation of cracks with the distribution of residual stress obtained by numerical analysis.

While the first plastic deformation occurs by the dislocation bow-out motion within the grain region for both models, the subsequent plastic deformation is strongly influenced by the resistance of the slip transfer by dislocation transmission through grain boundaries. The influence of the competition between the intragranular dislocation nucleation and intergranular slip transfer on the material strength is considered.

From first-principles calculations, we show here that the calculated cohesive energy (

The rate of the decrease/increase in the was excellently proportional to the experimental ductile-to-brittle transition temparature (DBTT) shift with increasing segregation; this demonstrates that the grain boundary embrittlement is governed by the change in the 2

C and 550C for 3000 h to investigate the applicability of CrN coating to a liquid Pb-Bi environment. CrN coatings on F82H (Fe-8Cr-2W-0.3V-0.04Ta-0.1C) and 316SS exhibited good compatibility in liquid Pb-Bi during corrosion test at 450C. The CrN coating layer suffered heavy damage such as cracking and spalling, and showed no effectiveness as a protective layer in corrosion test at 550C. Nickel and chromium in 316SS dissolved into Pb-Bi through the damaged coating layer at 550C. The cracking and spalling were not found after heating CrN-coated steels in Ar gas at 550C. It is considered that stresses caused by the difference of thermal expansion coefficients between CrN and steels led to cracking and spalling of the CrN coating through corrosion attack by liquid Pb-Bi at 550C.
