Crossed occlusion can be treated either by overdenture and telescopic denture or by placing an implant at the edentulous area to reestablish the support on the occlusion. If alveolar bony support is sufficient and an the environment where an implant is inserted is favorable to restoring the masticatory and aesthetic function of a patient, the implant-supported fixed prosthesis can provide more definitive occlusal support and more aid for other oral functions. In this case report, a patient with a severe residual alveolar bone resorption following the extraction of teeth and who had a crossed occlusion was treated with sinus bone graft and alveolar bone augmentation in order to place the implants at prosthetically position. The definitive restoration was made to reflect the patient's occlusal and aesthetic function using the CAD/CAM double scanning method. Finally, the treatment had the masticatory and aesthetic function adequately restored, which is reported here.

A crossed occlusion resulting from the presence of posterior teeth in one arch but no opposing teeth in the opposite arch results in collapse of the vertical dimension. In this case, the patient has a class III malocclusion with crossed occlusion and anterior crossbite. In order to evaluate the proper vertical dimension, provisional denture was used to stabilize the vertical occlusal dimension for 3 months. After, provisional fixed restoration was used for the stabilizing occlusal relationship and aesthetic improvement for lip support. Definitive prosthesis in implants in the mandible and abutments in the maxillary were using Porcelain-fused-to-metal crown (PFM) crown and the maxillary unilateral edentulous area was treated with removable partial dentures. Through this, proper support of the posterior region and normal anterior occlusal relationship were formed, and the patient was able to obtain aesthetically and functionally satisfactory treatment results.

This study measured the natural-convection heat transfer of two vertically staggered cylinders with varying vertical pitch-to-diameter ($P_v$/D) and horizontal pitch-to-diameter ($P_h$/D) ratios. The measured heat-transfer rates for the lower cylinder agreed well with the existing heat-transfer correlations for a single cylinder. At the smallest $P_v$/D, the rising plume from the lower cylinder provides the upper cylinder with a preheated flow, and the heat-transfer rates of the upper cylinder decrease, but increase very sensitively with $P_h$/D. However, at the largest $P_v$/D, the velocity effect dominates, and the heat-transfer rates of the upper cylinder are larger than that of a single cylinder, and decrease less sensitively with $P_h$/D. Even if $P_h$/D is increased, the heat-transfer rate of the upper cylinder is higher than that of the lower cylinder because of the chimney and side flow effects. This work expanded the flow ranges to turbulent flows. The cupric acid-copper sulfate ($H_2SO_4-CuSO_4$) electroplating system was adopted for the measurements of the mass-transfer rates instead of the heat-transfer experiments based on the analogy concept. The measurements were made by varying $P_v$/D (1.02-5) and $P_h$/D (0-2) in both laminar and turbulent flows. The Rayleigh number ranged from $1.5{\times}10^8$ to $2.5{\times}10^{10}$, and the Prandtl number was 2,014.

In flip chip packaging, underfill process is used to fill epoxy bonder into the gap between a chip and a substrate in order to improve the reliability of electronic devices. Underfill process by capillary motion can give rise to unwanted air void formations since the arrangement of solder bumps affects the interfacial dynamics of flow meniscus. In this paper, the unsteady flows in the capillary underfill process are visualized and then the racing effect and merging of the meniscus are investigated according to the arrangement of solder bumps. The result is shown that at higher bump density, the fluid flow perpendicular to the main direction of flow becomes stronger so that more air voids are formed. This phenomenon is more conspicuous at a staggered bump array than at a rectangular bump array.

The present study investigates the convective heat/mass transfer inside a cooling passage of rotating gas-turbine blades. The rotating duct has various configurations made of ribs with 70。 attack angle, which are attached on leading and trailing surfaces. A naphthalene sublimation technique is employed to determine detailed local heat transfer coefficients using the heat and mass transfer analogy. The present experiments employ two-surface heating conditions in the rotating duct because the surfaces, exposed to hot gas stream, are pressure and suction side surfaces in the middle passages of an actual gas-turbine blade. In the stationary conditions, the parallel rib arrangement presents higher heat/mass transfer characteristics in the first pass, however, these characteristics disappear in the second pass due to the turning effects. In the rotating conditions, the cross rib present less heat/mass transfer discrepancy between the leading and the trailing surfaces in the first pass. In the second pass, the heat/mass transfer characteristics are much more complex due to the combined effects of the angled ribs, the sharp fuming and the rotation.
