The effects of Au addition on the structure and the superconducting properties of Bi system bulk have been investigated. Au exists in the metalic form in above materials. It does not affect the formation and structure of the BiSrCaCuO(2223) phase. The superconducting transition temperature Tc does not change for $Bi_{1.7}Pb_{0.3}Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3O$ composite However Au doping can make the grains smaller. Metallic Au can make gathers on the grains boundary and lead to the increment of critical transport current density. The current density of $Bi_{1.7}Pb_{0.3}Sr_2Ca_2Cu_3Au_{0.5}O$ was 1000A/$cm^2$ at liquid nitrogen temperature.

The rotor drive system in rotor-craft carries out power transmission from powerplant to rotors and the drive shafts are fallen into misaligned condition by the vibration of engine and shafts and the deformation of supporting structures. The high performance flexible coupling accommodates these misalignments of drive shafts. In this study, we compare the performance of the metalic flexible coupling with the composite flexible coupling through analytic method to develop the high performance flexible coupling used in the rotor drive system of UAV tilt-rotor.

In this study, synthesized Ni/Ce_xZr_1-xO₂ catalysts were coated on the surface of honeycomb metalic monoliths to investigate catalytic activity in steam reforming of methane reactions. Supports with varying Ce/Zr ratios were synthesized to observe their behavior in the reforming reaction, and catalysts with Ni contents ranging from 5 wt% to 20 wt% were prepared to analyze the effect of Ni loading contents on catalytic activity. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, TPR, and SEM. The TPR analysis indicated the formation of Ni-Ce-Zr oxide with a strong interaction between the active metal Ni and CeO₂-ZrO₂ support. The 15 wt% Ni/Ce_0.80Zr_0.20O₂ catalyst exhibited the highest activity and stability in the steam reforming of methane reaction. Catalysts with enhanced activity and stability were synthesized by manufacturing composite materials using excellent oxygen storage and donor properties of CeO₂ and the thermal properties of ZrO₂.
