Gradual tooth wear is a natural process of aging, but pathological wear over physiologic ranges leads to functional and esthetic problems. The loss of posterior support may cause pathological wear of anterior teeth, which results in reduction of vertical dimension and disharmony of occlusal plane. To solve this problem, determination of proper vertical dimension considering centric relation is necessary. This case report presented 71-year-old male, who had the severe wear of lower anterior teeth due to loss of posterior support. By meticulous evaluation, a full mouth rehabilitation with elevation of vertical dimension was planned. After 8 months of follow-up, stable occlusal scheme is maintained and patient was satisfied with clinical outcome functionally and esthetically.

Although physiologic abrasion in normal range need not to be corrected, when hard tissue of teeth are worn abnormally fast, it can cause severe damage and destroy esthetics and, functional structure of occlusion consequently. To establish a correct occlusal plane and space for the patient with worn dentition, it is necessary to increase vertical dimension. However, actual occlusal vertical dimension remains unhanged with compensation for the increase of alveolar bone height equivalent to the decrease of teeth length. A 74-year-old male presented with worn dentition and fractured tooth. Based on the assessment of OVD including clinical findings, full-mouth rehabilitation without increase of OVD was planned. This case presents that a satisfactory clinical result was achieved by restoring the worn dentition without changing occlusal vertical dimension.

In this study the wear behavior of ultra high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) filled with kaolin particles by different methods was investigated. UHMWPE/kaolin composites were prepared by two different methods: polymerization-filling and powder mixing. Particularly in a powder mixing method. Particle dispersion and wear property according to powder mining method were examined. It was found from wear test that filling of inorganic filler into UHMWPE by polymerization filling was more effective way than by powder mixing method in improving Wear resistance of UHMWPE. It was also confirmed that abrasive wear was dominant wear mechanism and particle dispersion in the composite as well as interface property was an important factor in controlling the wear behavior of the resulting composites.

Attrition characteristics of PKM1-SU particles, $CO_2$ absorbents for pre-combustion $CO_2$ capture process, and FCC particles, catalytic particles for hydro cracking of crude oil, were investigated at high temperature and high pressure conditions. Particle attrition tests were executed at various kinds of temperature ($0-400^{\circ}C$) and pressure (0-20 bar) conditions in a cylinder type bubbling fluidized bed with 15.1 cm diameter, 120 cm height and 1 mm orifice-sparger tube. Attrited particles before and after tests were analyzed by BET, optical microscopy, and particle size analyzer. Effects of bed material height (solid inventory) and steam injection were also verified by using ASTM D5757-95, conventional attrition test method.

Pathologic attrition leads to pathologic damage on occlusal plane, functional disorders, occlusal disharmony, esthetic problems, pulpal lesion, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder. In this case, treatment plan should be considered for possibility of vertical dimension loss, occlusal pattern, esthetics, phonetics, amount of vertical dimension increase. This case report was a 71-year-old man who had severely worn dentition. Full mouth rehabilitation was carried out with vertical dimension increase due to limited space for prosthesis. After evaluation of provisional restorations for patient's compliance, final restorations were fabricated and routine clinical assessments were made. This case presents that a satisfactory clinical result was achieved by restoring the worn dentition.

Pantograph sliding plate abrasion auto-detect system, one of the electric rail car auto-detecting devices, is a system that decides how much abrasion and when to replace without an inspector physically looking at the abrasion on the wet plate using machine vision, a cutting-edge technology. This paper covers the cause of deteriorating reliability that affects pantograph wet plate edge detection due to noise added to the video when it rains. In order to remove such noise, problems should be checked through Smoothing, Averaging mask and Median filter using filtering technique and stable edge detection without being affected by noise should be induced in video measurement used in machine vision technology.

최근 경수로 핵연료 손상 원인 중의 하나인 연료봉 마모(Fretting Wear)가 지지격자의 스프링력 저하뿐만 아니라 원자로 냉각재 유동에 기인한 집합체 진동(Self-excited Fuel Assembly Vibration)에 의해 유발될 수 있는 것으로 밝혀져 해외 연료공급자들은 새로운 연료개발시 집합체 유동시험을 수행하여 냉각재 유동에 의한 집합체 진동 여부를 확인하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경수로 핵연료집합체에 대한 모드해석 및 진동시험으로부터 고유진동수 및 진동모드형태를 구하여 모의 집합체 유동시험 결과와 비교 평가하였고 냉각재 유동에 의해 과도한 집합체 진동이 발생됨을 확인하였으며 가연성흡수봉집합체를 삽입한 경우에 대한 유동시험 결과와도 비교하였다. 또한, 이들 집합체의 진동 변위량과 손상 연료의 마모량 분포의 상관성을 비교 평가하였다.

Korea Utility Helicopter(KUH) is a project to replace the aging helicopter presently being operated by the military with a domestic helicopter. The auxiliary power unit is a device that supplies emergency power to the system by an alternator installed when the main generator fails and the start motor converts the electrical energy of the battery into mechanical rotational energy to rotate the auxiliary power unit engine. With continuing power and operation, defects of the starting motor were found and improvements were carried out to solve it. In the failure mode analysis, the causes of possible defects were classified into 5 categories. Analysis of the 5 factors revealed that the main cause of defects is mechanical wear, which was found to be related to spring pressure. 250 tests were conducted through the theoretically determined pressure and regression analysis was performed with 4 sampling.The results showed that pressure was related to wear rate. In conclusion, early wear and breakage due to wear can be controlled through spring force and test showed the prediction of wear and the validity of the result were confirmed.

Sealing structure to prevent flowing hot gas into the driving device, located between the driving shaft and the liner of On-Off valve for controlling the hot gas flow path was studied. Wear occurs due to the constant movement of the driving shaft controlled by actuator on graphite as the sealing material. In this paper, the dynamic wear behavior in high temperature of graphite(HK-6) to be used as sealing material was evaluated. Reciprocating wear test was carried out for the graphite(HK-6) to the relative motion between shaft materials(W-25Re). The results of friction coefficient and specific wear rate according to contact load, sliding speed at room temperature and $485^{\circ}C$ considering the actual operating environment were evaluated. Through the SEM analysis of the worn surface, third body as lubricant films were observed and lubricant effect of third body was considered.

일반 금속은 부식에 약하다는 단점을 보완하기 위해 개발된 스테인레스 스틸은 내식성이 필요로 하는 다양한 분야에서 이용되고 고크로뮴을 포함한 오스테나이트 스테인레스 스틸은 일반적으로 엔지니어링 재료로 사용되고 있다. 하지만 오스테나이트 스테인레스 스틸은 낮은 표면 경도와 지지용량으로 인해 내마모특성이 필요한 제품에는 사용이 미약한 수준이다. 현재 이러한 내마모특성을 높이기위해 오스테나이트 스테인레스 스틸은 이온질화와 이온주입등의 방법을 사용하여 표면 특성을 향상시키고자 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 저진공 하에서 플라즈마를 이용하여 시편에 질화층과 Nitrogen Supersaturated Austenite층(S-phase)을 형성하여 경도와 인성을 향상시키고, 형성된 S-phase층의 두께에 따른 내식성, 내열성 특성을 확인하였다. 그리고 스테인레스 계열 시편의 질화시 나타나는 CrN층과 비교하였다. 특성 확인을 위한 시편은 약 $400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ 사이의 공정온도로 질소와 수소가스를 혼합하여 플라즈마를 형성하고 약 4시간동안의 공정을 통해 제작하였다. 제작된 시편의 경도와 조직, S-phase층의 두께를 분석하고 CrN층의 형성여부를 확인하였다. 이와 더불어 공정압력과 가스비의 변화에 따른 실험을 진행하여 질화특성을 확인하고자 하였다.
