In this study, the hot forming quenching process was investigated to improve the deficiencies that arise in materials subjected to conventional cold stamping, such as low formability and undesirable mechanical properties. The hot forming quenching process was mainly discussed in terms of formability and mechanical properties in this study and was first evaluated by preliminary tests. To examine formability, an evaluation was conducted using hot-tensile and hemispherical-dome stretching tests at

Studies have been actively conducted on systems that prevent the breakage of water pipes from freezing in winter. Shape memory alloy (SMA) coil springs have been used as the key components of actuators that can operate automatically by detecting the real-time outside temperature changes, but research on its use as an actuator that can operate at sub-zero temperatures is insufficient. This study proposes the anti-freezing system using Ni-44.08Ti-1.46Co (wt.%) SMA coil springs that operate near su

The microbial eco-physiology has been the vital key of microbial ecological research. Unfortunately, available methods for direct identity of microorganisms and for the investigation of their activity in complicated community dynamics are limited. In this study, metagenomics was considered as a promising functional genomics tool for improving our understanding of microbial eco-physiology. Its potential applications and challenges were also reviewed. Because of tremendous diversity in microbial p

Coagulation is a critical unit process in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs), where accurate dosing of coagulants such as polyaluminum chloride (PAC) and polyaluminum hydroxide chloride silicate (PACS) directly determines turbidity removal and operational stability. However, nonlinear interactions among water-quality variables complicate dosage prediction, and jar tests or operator heuristics cannot support real-time control. This study presents a scientifically interpretable and operationa
