In this paper, we apply a three-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method to simulate an unsteady-state roll forming process. A typical roll forming process is investigated from the standpoint of computer simulation and its realistic analysis model is proposed. The material is considered as bulk material and discretized into hexahedral finite elements. The presented approach is applied to simulating the roll forming process of straight stringer used for aircraft structure.

한국형 시험용 달 궤도선(KPLO)에 실릴 과학 탑재체 가운데 하나인 광시야 편광 카메라(PolCam)는 최초로 달 표면전체의 편광 특성을 관측한다. 편광 특성은 태양-달-관측기기 사이의 각도인 위상각에 따라 달라지므로, 다양한 위상각에서의 반복 관측을 통해 달 전 지역에 대한 각각의 편광곡선을 얻을 예정이다. 편광곡선으로부터 달 표면의 입자 크기와 성분 등의 분포를 알 수 있다. 이는 과학적으로도 흥미로울 뿐 아니라, 미래의 달 탐사 임무를 위한 착륙지 선정 시에도 중요한 참고자료가 된다. 여기에서는, PolCam이 1년간의 KPLO 임무 동안 관측할 수 있는 지역 및 위상각의 분포를 소개한다. 또한, 임무 도중 관측이 일시중지되거나 임무 자체가 비정상종료되는 경우 불완전한 관측 자료로부터 편광곡선을 구하는 방법에 대해 알아본다.

Purpose: We used tibialis allograft for the reconstruction of ACL and used Hybrid femoral fixation utilizing $Endobutton^{(R)}$ and $Rigidfix^{(R)}$ for femoral fixation, and used $Retroscrew^{(R)}$ and additional fixation for tibial fixation to evaluate the clinical results. Materials and Methods: The ACL reconstruction were performed from February 2004 to February 2007 utilizing Hybrid femoral fixation and $Retroscrew^{(R)}$ and 32 patients, 32 cases which were available for year-long observation (12 to 25 months). The clinical results (Lysholm knee score, IKDC grade) and the radiologic results(bone tunnel expansion, Telos anterior displacement test) were evaluated. Results: The Lysholm knee score was improved from the average of $67.9{\pm}5.4$ points (range: 51~77) before operation and to $94.1{\pm}6.8$ points (range: 68~98) at the last follow up (p<0.05). 22 cases (69%) were evaluated normal (A), 9 cases (28%) were evaluated nearly normal (B) and only 1 case (3%) was evaluated not normal (C) at IKDC final evaluation and no case was evaluated abnormal. From $Telos^{(R)}$ stress x-ray evaluation, difference from the opposite knee was improved average 13.2 mm{\pm}5.8 (range: 6~21 mm) to average $3.4\;mm{\pm}2.8$ (range: 0~11 mm) after operation (p<0.05). The femoral and tibial tunnel were widened by 18.7% and 9.6% in the AP view and 12.4% and 8.5% in the lateral view, respectively (p<0.05). However, any statistic significance was not observed between bone tunnel expansion and knee joint functions (p>0.05). Conclusion: An ACL reconstruction with tibialis allograft using Hybrid femoral fixation and $Retroscrew^{(R)}$ enabled anatomical fixation of the graft tendon with satisfactory clinical results.

In this study, the objective masticatory efficiency of two groups of temporomandibular disorder patients, pain and sound groups, was compared with that in a normal group using the MAI (mixing ability Index). The subjective chewing ability was evaluated using questionnaires, such as the Food Intake Ability Index (FIA) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-49K of the patients was also examined to measure the oral health-related quality of life. The results were as follows: 1. The MAI, FIA and VAS in the pain group were significantly lower than in the normal and sound groups. This shows that the chewing efficiency of the pain group was lower than the normal and sound groups (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the sound and normal groups. 2. The OHIP-49K for the oral health-related quality of life showed a significant increase in both the pain and sound groups compared with normal group. This means that the oral health-related quality of life was lower in both the pain and sound groups. 3. There was a correlation between the MAI, FIA and VAS (P<0.01) in all subjects (71 persons). The OHIP-49K was associated with the FIA and VAS. 4. There was a correlation between the FIA and VAS (P<0.05) in the sound group but no correlation in the other groups. 5. There was a correlation between the FIA and VAS in all groups. 6. The VAS was increased significantly in the pain group according to the level of pain reduction after treatment (P<0.05). However, there was no significant increase in the MAI, even though there was an improvement in masticatory efficiency. In addition, there was no difference in the FIA and OHIP-49K according to the level of pain reduction after treatment. In this study, it is believed that pain is a main factor decreasing the masticatory efficiency in patients with temporomandibular disorders. Moreover, TMJ sounds decrease the quality of life but do not decrease the masticatory efficiency. Therefore, it is important to control the pain in order to improve the masticatory efficiency in temporomandibular disorder patients. Moreover, managing both pain and sound can improve the quality of life.

This study was aimed to determine the fish physical status according to the gross and histopathological findings of liver in cultured black rock fish, Sebastes schlegeli. All 47 fish submitted had no marked abnormalities in the external findings. 42.55% of fish showed normal liver, 25.53% yellow liver, 25.53% atrophic brown liver, 4.26% yellowish-green liver and 2.13% fatty liver in gross examination. Grossly normal liver showed no remarkable change in lobular structure but many vacuoles were found in hepatic cell. Hepatic cells took normal roundish, polygonal shapes containing spherical nuclei. In group of yellow-brown liver, many brown pigments were seen in hepatic cells, MMCs and brown-colored hyaline droplets within cytoplasm of hepatocytes. Yellowish green pigments were seen in hepatic cells and MMCs of yellow green liver and green colored hyaline droplets within hepatocytes. The dilated central veins are highlighted with atrophy of hepatic cells. Outline of atrophic hepatocyte became ambiguous and nucleus frequently become small and pyknotic. Fatty liver showed prominent vacuolar structures in cells as clear spaces or foamy cytoplasm with degenerative nuclei. From these results, it was strongly suggested that hepatic gross and histological findings could be used as important and critical health parameters of fish prior to progression to substantial manifestation as clinical disease.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of various factors such as recipient parity, delivery season, offspring number, pregnancy period, delivery type, midwifery type and dystocia, on the viability of calves derived from embryos produced in vitro. There was no difference in the abnormality of calves among treatments ($0\~25\%$, respectively). The incidence of a disease was significantly higher in delivered by multiparous $(40\%)$ than nulliparous$(9.9\%)$, in eutocia than dystocia group, in delivered on spring $(20.4\%)$ and winter $(22.7\%)$ than summer$(4.3\%)$ and autumn $(0\%)$, in single offspring $(18.4\%)$ than twin offsprings $(6.7\%)$, and in eutocia group $(17\%)$ than dystocia $(2.7\%)$, respectively (p<0.05). The rate of mortality was significantly higher when transferred into mulliparous $(22.3\%)$ than multiparous$(0\%)$, when were delivered within 270 day $(53.3\%)$ than over 270 day $(14.3\~16.1\%)$, when were dystocia $(41.7\%)$ than eutocia$(14.1\%)$ group, when were induced delivery $(44.4\%)$ than self-delivery $(18.1\%)$, when were non-midwifery $(34\%)$ than midwifery$(10.8\%)$, and when delayed midwifery $(31.6\%)$ than earlier midwifery$(11.5\%)$, respectively (p<0.05). The present study suggested that the proper treatment of parturition may be increased the viability of calves derived from in vitro.

The major causes of the facial bone fractures are fractures are automobile collision or other accident, and fights. Of the facial bone fractures, the nasal bone fractures are monst common. According to Schroeder et al., 50% of facial bone fractures are isolated fractures of the nasal pyramid. But the fractured nasal bone is not immediately treated as other facial bone fractures. And it is necessary to delay the treatment of the combined nasal bone fractures with other jaw bone fractures because of the difficult anesthetic techniques. Therefore there are many residual nasal deformities following a fracture; nasal hump, saddle nose and alar rim defect. Many authors have suggested the methods to correct the post-traumatic nasal deformities. We have treated several patients with several methods and this paper presents the operating methods and results.

Objective: Activating mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor-2 (FGFR2) have been shown to cause syndromic craniosynostosis such as Apert and Crouzon syndromes. The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the resultant phenotypes induced by the two distinctive bone-targeted gene constructs of FGFR2, Pro253Arg and Cys278Phe, corresponding to human Apert and Crouzon syndromes respectively. Methods: Wild type and a transgenic mouse model with normal FGFR2 were used as controls to examine the validity of the microinjection. Micro-CT and morphometric analysis on the skull revealed the following results. Results: Both Apert and Crouzon mutants of FGFR2 induced fusion of calvarial sutures and anteroposteriorly constricted facial dimension, with anterior crossbite present only in Apert mice. Apert mice differed from Crouzon mice and transgenic mice with normal FGFR2 in the anterior cranial base flexure and calvarial flexure angle which implies a possible difference in the pathogenesis of the two mutations. In contrast, the transgenic mice with normal FGFR2 displayed normal craniofacial phenotype. Conclusion: Apert and Crouzon mutations appear to lead to genotype-specific phenotypes, possibly causing the distinctive sites and sequence of synostosis in the calvaria and cranial base. The exact function of the altered FGFR2 at each suture needs further investigation.

This in vitro study was undertaken to observe whether citric acid application aids the attachment and proliferation of human periodontal ligament cells to the root surfaces of periodontally diseased teeth. The roots were prepared so that the comparison could be made among the control healthy root surface, citric acid demineralized and non-demineralized root planted surfaces. Prior to the cell attachment experiment, each groups were prepared for scanning electron microscopic (SEM) examinations of root surface morphology, All specimens were fixed with phosphate buffered glutaraldehydes, postfixed with phosphate buffered osmium tetraoxide and stained with phosphate buffered tannic acid. dehydrated in ethanol, critical point dried, sputter coated with gold and examined under the SEM. In the cell attachement experiment, human cultured periodontal ligament cells at concentration to $4.5{\times}\;10^4\;cells/ml$ were seeded in each culture well which contained prepared roots and incubated for 30min 1, 2, 6, 12 and 24 hours at 37, 5% $CO_2$air incubator. Than the specimens were prepared for SEM examination using, the same methods as described above. In the cell proliferation experiment, $5{\times}\;10^4\;cells/ml$ cells were seeded incubated with the specimens for 6 hours. Then, all of the specimens were moved into fresh culture well and incubated for 24, 48, and 72 hours. The cell counting was done after trypsinization, under light microscope. The results were as follows. When viewed the surface morphology prior to the cell attachment, the non acid treated root planed surface displayed scaling striation and occasional bacteria and calculus. The citric acid treated specimens displayed little debris on the surface and funnel shaped orifices of dentinal tubules. There were no apparent differences in the morphology of cells attached to the control and experiment groups. However, in initial attachement, there was a slight more enhanced appearance in attachment in citric acid treated groups than other root surfaces. After 6 hours of incubation, most of the cells initiated the alteration of cell morphology from ovoid to spindle shapes. After 24 hours of incubation, most of the cells displayed proliferated appearance and connected with each other via numerous processes. In the cell proliferation experiments, there were statistically significant increased number of cells in citic acid treated groups than other groups.
