In this paper, we propose a fast block-matching motion estimation method using the cross pattern and the hexagonal pattern. For the block-matching motion estimation method, full search finds the best motion estimation, but it requires huge search time because it has to check every search point within the search window. The proposed method makes use of the fact that most of motion vectors lie near the center of block. The proposed method first uses the cross pattern to search near the center of block, and then uses the hexagonal pattern to search larger motion vectors. Experimental results show that our method is better than recently proposed search algorithms in terms of mean-square error performance and required search time.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the axial displacement of the hexagonal and conical abutment in internal conical connection implant after screw tightening and cyclic loading. Materials and Methods: Internal conical connection implants were divided into two groups (n = 10): group HEX, hexagonal abutment; and group CON, conical 2-piece abutments. The axial displacement and removal torque values were measured after 30 Ncm torque tightening and 250N loading test of 100,000 cycles. The Student t test with 5% significance level was used to evaluate the data. Results: HEX group demonstrated significantly higher axial displacement values after 30 Ncm tightening in comparison to the CON group (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in axial displacement after cyclic loading (P = 0.052). Removal torque loss before and after the cyclic loading both revealed no significant difference between groups (P = 0.057 and P = 0.138). Removal torque value decreased after cyclic loading in both groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Overall, both abutment with or without hexagon index presented similar biomechanical performance except HEX group demonstrated significantly more axial displacement after applying tightening torque.

최근들어 반도체 및 디스플레이 소자의 구조가 복잡해짐에 따라 다층 박막 증착에 대한 중요성이 날로 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다층 박막을 효율적으로 증착하기 위해 회전이 가능한 육각건을 개발하였고, 이를 이용하여 에너지 절약형 단열 유리 증착 공정을 구현 하였다. 개발된 회전형 육각건은 기존 플래너형 스퍼터링 건의 확장형으로서 최대 6개의 물질을 하나의 챔버에서 증착이 가능하도록 구성되었다. 기존 공정의 경우 서로 다른 물질 증착을 위해서는 각각의 챔버가 필요한 반면, 회전형 육각건을 이용할 경우 하나의 챔버에서 공정을 진행할 수 있어 원가 절감이 가능하다. Fig. 1은 개발된 회전형 육각건의 모식도로서, 스퍼터링 타겟이 장착 가능한 건과, 회전부로 구성되어 있다. 이를 이용하여 투명전극-금속-투명전극-금속-절연체로 구성되어 있는 에너지 절약형 단열 유리용 다층 박막 증착 공정을 개발하였다. 이때 알루미늄이 도핑된 ZnO (AZO)는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터로, 금속 박막은 DC 스퍼터, $SiO_2$ 및 SiN과 같은 절연 박막은 $O_2$와 $N_2$ 분위기에서 반응성 RF 스퍼터로 각각 증착하였다. Base pressure는 $10^{-7}$ torr였으며, 증착 시 공정 압력은 1~3 mTorr로 조정하였다. 증착 균일도 향상을 위해 20 rpm의 속도로 기판을 회전시켰다. Fig. 2(a)는 ZnO-Ag-ZnO 구조로 이루어진 다층 박막의 단면을 관찰한 투과전자 현미경 사진으로 각 층간의 계면이 뚜렷하게 나타남을 확인할 수 있으며, 각 층간의 intermixing 현상이 발생하지 않음을 확인 가능하다. 이를 보완하기 위해 Fig. 2(b)에서 보는 바와 같이 XPS를 이용하여 depth profile을 측정하였다. 각 층에서 서로 다른 물질이 발견되는 현상, 즉 교차 오염이 발생함에 따라 나타나는 intermixing 없이 거의 순수한 형태의 ZnO, Ag 박막 성분이 검출되었다. 이는 6개의 서로 다른 물질이 장착된 회전형 육각건을 이용하여 고 품질의 다층 박막 증착이 가능함을 제시하는 결과이다. 증착된 다층 박막의 균일도는 3.8%, 가시광선 영역에서 80% 이상의 투과도, 면저항 값은 3 ${\Omega}/{\Box}$ 이하를 보임으로서 에너지 절약형 단열 유리로서의 사양을 만족시키는 결과를 제시하였다.

Retroreflective article is different from other reflecting objects as it returns the incidence ray to the near of its source. This characteristic makes the retroreflectors have many applications in reflective highway signs, reflective vests, and other safety-relaxed items. These articles may have various shapes. However, the quantitative evaluation of performance for the best shape of retroreflector needs much time and cost for manufacturing prototypes and for performance experiments. In this work, we have developed a program for simulating the trace of ray entered into a retroreflective element, in order to determine the optimal shape of retro-reflection. We have also proposed new performance criterion of retroreflective articles, which can confide the range of incidence angle, instead of the criterion with the merely retroreflective strength.

In the clinical application of ultrasonic hyperthermia, selective heating of tumor is essential and thus precise control of ultrasonic intensity in both tumor and normal tissue is needed. In this paper, a hexagonal array transducer for ultrasonic hyperthermia is designed and manufactured of which focal point and focal region can be ocntrolled by the digital phase control circuit proposed by authors. Profiles of the focussed ultrasound beam in water and those of temperature in phantom were determined. The experimental and computed results are in good agreement.

Bonsai is part of export forest products in Korea. Demand for bonsai exports to other countries is growing but the need for quarantine hazards must be eliminated in other to export. Plant parasitic nematode is also an important factor in quarantine. The nematodes were surveyed from bonsai farms in 6 areas of Korea. The surveyed deciduous bonsai plants were Acer palmatum, Zinnia elegans, Ligustrum obtusiflium, Carpinus turcaninowii, and Malus sieboldii. Three plant parasitic nematodes (Hemicyliophora koreana, Rotylenchus blothrotylus and Xiphinema americanum) and three non-parasitic nematodes (Aporclaimellus donghwaens, Egtitus andhricus, and Mesodorylaimus usitatus) were isolated from bonsai. Non-parasitic nematode, Mesodorylaimus usitatus was isolated from all surveyed bonsai trees. Only two species of quarantine nematodes (Hemcylicopora koreana and Xiphinema americanum) were found from bonsai. A. donghwaens and M. usitatus were isolated from root of bonsai tree. However other nematodes were isolated from soil in bonsai trees.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fracture strength of straight and angled zirconia abutments for internal hex and external hex implants. Materials and methods: Twenty internal hex implants and 20 external hex implants were prepared. The prefabricated straight zirconia abutments and 17-degree-angled zirconia abutments were connected to those 40 implants. The specimens were classified into 4 groups depending on the connection type and abutment angulation; internal hex implant/straight abutment, group INS; internal hex implant/angled abutment, group INA; external hex implant/straight abutment, group EXS; external hex implant/angled abutment, group EXA. All specimens were loaded at a 30-degree angle with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min using universal testing machine. The fracture loads were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and independent t-test (${\alpha}=.05$). Results: The mean fracture load for INS was 955.91 N, 933.65 N for INA, 1267.20 N for EXS, and 1405.93 N for EXA. External hex implant showed a significantly higher fracture load, as compared to internal hex implant (P < .001). No significant differences in fracture loads were observed between the straight and angled abutment in internal hex implants (P = .747) and external hex implants (P = .222). Internal hexes of abutments were fractured horizontally in internal connection implants, while lingual cervical neck portions were fractured in external connection implants. Conclusion: The zirconia abutments with external hex implants showed significantly higher fracture strength than those with internal hex implants. However there was no difference in fracture strength between the straight and 17-degree-angled zirconia abutment connected to both implant systems.

The clamping of torque shear bolt is based on KS B 2819. It was misunderstood that the tension force of the TS bolt was induced generally at the break of pin-tail specified. However, the clamping forces on slip critical connections do not often meet the intended tension, as it considerably varies due to torque coefficient dependent on temperature variables despite the break of the pin tail. In this study, the tension of torque shear bolts were compared with two types of high-strength hexagon bolts by temperature parameters from ${-10^{\circ}C}$ to ${50^{\circ}C}$. Torque shear bolts showed that the average clamping force increased to 20kN as the temperature increased. In case of galvanized high-strength hexagon bolts, the average clamping forces at $0^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$ were recorded over standard bolt tension, 178kN, and the worst standard deviation was 50kN. In case of high-strength hexagon bolts, ave rage clamping forces increased as the temperature went up, and the worst standard deviation was 33kN lower than that of galvanized high-strength hexagon bolts. As for the turn-of-the-nut method, at nut rotation of ${90^{\circ}}$, two types of high-strength hexagon bolts did not met the intended design bolt in tension, 162kN.it is neccessary to re-evaluate the range of turn of nut, ${120^{\circ}{\pm}30^{\circ}}$.
