Buildability of fresh concrete, a key element of Concrete 3D printing, is the ability to build filaments at a desirable height without excessive deformation or collapse. Buildability is closely related to yield stress, and the higher the yield stress, the better. Also, the shear stress of fresh concrete increases as it hardens over the time after extruded, and consequently the buildability increases. Therefore, in concrete 3D printing, proper time gaps between printed layers (Printing Time Gap, PTG) are required to ensure the buildability of fresh concrete. As the PTG increases, the buildability increases; however, an excessive PTG reduces the bond performance between the printed layers, and the extrudability can be lowered as the printing time increases. In this research, therefore, 3D printing experiments were conducted with the variable of PTG to examine the buildability of 100 MPa-high strength concrete. In addition, a pseudo-layer loading method was applied to simulate the buildability test for 3D concrete printing and its applicability was examined.

다양한 응용에서 저장 매체로 사용되는 NAND 플래시 메모리는 저비용과 대용량을 위해 셀 당 비트 수 증가, 제조 공정의 미세화, 그리고 적층 기술 등 다양한 기술을 사용한다. 그렇지만 이러한 기술들은 플래시 메모리 셀의 안정성과 성능에 악영향을 준다. 특히 QLC 3D 플래시 메모리인 경우, 셀 상태가 많고 상태 간 임계 전압 간격이 좁기 때문에 프로그램과 읽기에 필요한 시간이 길다. 본 논문에서는 프로그램 수행 시간을 줄이고 셀 안정성에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있도록 데이터 코드를 변환하는 비균일 스크램블 기법을 소개하고, 실제 시스템 데이터를 이용하여 스크램블 기법의 성능을 평가한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 얻은 결과에 따르면 데이터 코드를 변환하여 저장하는 스크램블 기법은 최대 204%의 프로그램 성능 개선 효과를 보인다.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of the shrinkage stress induced by polymerization process of several light curing filling materials according to filling methods. High power light curing unit which has a plasma arc lamp was used and filling materials used were Filtek $Z-250^{(R)}$ composite resin, $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP compomer and $Tetric^{(R)}$ Flow flowable composite resin. Cavities were prepared on the permanent molars with width 3 mm, height 3 mm and depth 1.5 mm and the filling materials were filled with 1 step, 2 step layering technique and 3 step oblique filling methods. The results can be summarized as follows; 1. Strain values showed rapid increase from the start of light curing followed by gradual decrease afterwards with time. 2. Although the shrinkage stress value of $Z-250^{(R)}$ were shown to be relatively higher than $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP and $Tetric^{(R)}$ Flow, no statistically significant could be found between tested materials(p>0.05). 3. There were no statistically significant difference between 3 filling methods when using $Dyract^{(R)}$ AP and $Z-250^{(R)}$(p>0.05). 4. There were no statistically significant difference between shrinkage stress values obtained from samples prepared by different filling methods and materials(p>0.05).

A technique for producing the ear shell for a hearing aid using DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine) image and a 3D printing was studied. It is a new application method, and is an application technique that can improve the safety and infection of hearing aid users and can reduce the production time and process stages. In this study, the effects on the shape surface were examined before and after the printing of the ear shell using a 3D printer based on the values obtained from the raw data of the DICOM images at the volumes of 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, and 2.0 mm, respectively. Before the printing, relative relationship was compared with respect to the STL (STereoLithography) file structure; and after the printing, the intervals of the layered structure of the ear shell shape surface were compared by magnifying them using a microscope. For the STL file structure, the numbers of triangular vertices, more than five intersecting points, and maximum intersecting points were large in the order of 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm, and 2.0 mm, respectively; and the triangular structure was densely distributed in the order of the bending, angle, and crest regions depending on the sinuosity of the external auditory meatus shape. As for the ear shell shape surface examined by the digital microscope, the interval of the layered structure was thick in the order of 2.0 mm, 1.0 mm, and 0.5 mm. For the STL surface structure mentioned above, the intersecting STL triangular structure was denser as the sinuosity of the 3D ear shell shape became more irregular and the volume of the raw data decreased.

Recently with the advance in digital dentistry, the fabrication of dentures using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) is on the rise. The denture designed through a CAD software can be produced in a 3-dimensional manufacturing process. This process includes a subtractive processing method such as milling and an additive processing method such as 3D printing and in which it can be applied efficiently in more complex structures. In this case, complete dentures were fabricated using Stereolithography (SLA)-based 3D printing to shorten the production time and interval of visits in patient with physical disabilities due to cerebral infarction. For definitive impression, the existing interim denture was digitally replicated and used as an individual tray. The definitive impression obtained with polyvinyl siloxane impression material was including information about the inclination and length of the maxillary anterior teeth, vertical dimension, and centric relation. In addition, facial scan data with interim denture was obtained so that it can be used as a reference in determination of the occlusal plane and in arrangement of artificial teeth during laboratory work. Artificial teeth were arranged through a CAD program, and a gingival festooning was performed. The definitive dentures were printed by SLA-based 3D printer using a FDA-approved liquid photocurable resin. The denture showed adequate retention, support, and stability, and results were satisfied functionally and aesthetically.

The following experiments were carried out at rock method oyster field at Uduri, Dolsan-myon, Yeocheon-gun, Jeon-nam, Korea, in 1966. In this experiment, the settling rate of oyster at each exposure level and their growth rate were checked. 1. The settling rate of oyster spats was highest at 4 hour exposure level in the day-time during spring tide, and the growth rate became greater the lower stratum until 3 hours and 30 minutes exposure level. 2. Rocks applied at the place higher than 5 to 6 hour exposure level which amount 26 percents of applied rocks, were not utilized properly because the settling rate of spats and their growth rate were very bad. 3. For the future application of rocks for oyster culture, effort should be paid to instruct the oyster farmers to apply all rocks at proper exposure Ie el with bottom leveling and the rocks should be spaced properly for better barvest.

In this study, we develop MPI-OpenMP hybrid parallelization for multibody peridynamic simulations. Peridynamics is suitable for analyzing complicated dynamic fractures and various discontinuities. However, compared with a conventional finite element method, nonlocal interactions in peridynamics cost more time and memory. In multibody peridynamic analysis, the costs increase due to the additional interactions that occur when computing the nonlocal contact and ghost interlayer models between adjacent bodies. The costs become excessive when further refinement and smaller time steps are required in cases of high-velocity impact fracturing or similar instances. Thus, high computational efficiency and performance can be achieved by parallelization and optimization of multibody peridynamic simulations. The analytical code is developed using an Intel Fortran MPI compiler and OpenMP in NURION of the KISTI HPC center and parallelized through MPI-OpenMP hybrid parallelization. Further parallelization is conducted by hybridizing with OpenMP threads in each MPI process. We also try to minimize communication operations by model-based decomposition of MPI processes. The numerical results for the impact fracturing of multiple bodies show that the computing performance improves significantly with MPI-OpenMP hybrid parallelization.

Purpose: We have performed SRS (stereotactic radiosurgery) for avm (arterry vein malformation) and brain cancer. In order to verify dose and localization of SRS, dose distributions from TPS ($X-Knife^{(R)}$ 3.0, Radionics, USA) and GafChromic $EBT^{(R)}$ film in a head phantom were compared. Materials and Methods: In this study, head and neck region of conventional humanoid phantom was modified by substituting one of 2.5 cm slap with five 0.5 cm acrylic plates to stack the GafChromic $EBT^{(R)}$ film slice by slice with 5 mm intervals. Four films and five acrylic plates were cut along the contour of head phantom in axial plane. The head phantom was fixed with SRS head ring and adapted SRS localizer as same as real SRS procedure. CT images of the head phantom were acquired in 5 mm slice intervals as film interval. Five arc 6 MV photon beams using the SRS cone with 2 cm diameter were delivered 300 cGy to the target in the phantom. Ten small pieces of the film were exposed to 0, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 cGy, respectively to calibrate the GafChromic $EBT^{(R)}$ film. The films in the phantom were digitized after 24 hours and its linearity was calibrated. The pixel values of the film were converted to the dose and compared with the dose distribution from the TPS calculation. Results: Calibration curve for the GafChromic $EBT^{(R)}$ film was linear up to 900 cGy. The R2 value was better than 0.992. Discrepancy between calculated from $X-Knife^{(R)}$ 3.0 and measured dose distributions with the film was less than 5% through all slices. Conclusion: It was possible to evaluate every slice of humanoid phantom by stacking the GafChromic EBT film which is suitable for 2 dimensional dosimetry, It was found that film dosimetry using the GafChromic $EBT^{(R)}$ film is feasible for routine dosimetric QA of stereotactic radiosurgery.
