The nondestructive test is widely used in the field of diagnosis and maintenance to evaluate the degree of damaging of structures caused by aging, and the demand for this test method is expected to continue increasing. However, there is a lack of standards related to the nondestructive test, and South Korea is relying heavily on developed nations for original technologies related to diagnosis. It is an urgent task to establish a nondestructive test method appropriate for the circumstance of South Korea. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze estimated error of compressive strength in single-story structures comprised of vertical and horizontal reinforced concrete members using the impact testing method and rebound hardness method, which are nondestructive test methods, and to review on-site applicability of these methods. Based on compressive strength of the structures estimated, overall mean error was 21.2% for the impact testing method and 15.6% for the rebound hardness method. The necessity of a reliable diagnostic method based on compound nondestructive test methods to increase accuracy of estimation was confirmed.

Herpes zoster is caused by reactivation and multiplication of a latent varicella-zoster virus infection. Reactivation can frequently occur in older adults and immunosuppressed individuals. It is hypothesized that this is related to an aging society and a corresponding increase in the number of people with underlying chronic diseases, such as cancer and diabetes, that lower immunity. Clinically, the patient complains of pain, and a vesicular rash presents on one side of the face up to the midline in the dermatomes associated with the affected ganglion. Herpes zoster of the oral mucosa is rare. When oral lesions do occur, they are most often concurrent with pathognomonic unilateral linear vesicular skin lesions, facilitating both clinical diagnosis and management of the condition. Cases limited to the oral mucous membrane alone are most unusual. Treatment includes antiviral agents and analgesics for pain control. Antivirals should be administered within 72 hours of onset. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to avoid complications, such as postherpetic neuralgia. The present case report describes the adequate management of a patient diagnosed with shingles which affected the right side of the face and oral cavity. In addition, a literature review is presented.

It has been confirmed that the inner defect of insulator and the perfect diagnosis for aging are closely related to safe electric power transmission system and that the detection of accident and diagnosis technique turn out to be very important issues. But perfect diagnosis is difficult because discharge pattern is irregular. Thus, we investigated discharge pattern using the new distribution statistical models with cross-inked polyethylene(XLPE) specimens. Voltage was applied to power frequency by step method, and calibration of discharge was set to 50 pC. After the voltage was applied, it measured the discharge occurring during 10s. We investigated discharge pattern using the K-means analysis and Weibull function. We also investigated variation of centroid and shape parameter due to variation of voltage. As a result of analyzing K-means, it was confirmed that cluster including many object numbers was formed by the presence of void. And result of Weibull distribution, it was confirmed that shape parameter of discharge varied from 1.28 to 1.62 in no void specimens, and that shape parameter of discharge number varied from 1.28 to 1.62. In the void, shape parameter of discharge varied from 5.66 to 6.43, and shape parameter of discharge number varied from 5.05 to 5.08.

균열치는 저작운동과 온도자극에 대한 치아의 통증을 호소하는 환자에서 자주 발견되는 질환으로 균열의 진행정도에 따라 다양하게 분류할 수 있다. 가장 흔한 원인으로는 저작과정 중의 갑작스러운 사고로 알려져 있지만 대부분 증령, 기존 수복물 또는 의원성 응력집중과 같은 기여요인이 있을 때 발생한다. 균열의 진행정도 및 치수침범에 대한 정확한 진단이 필수적이며 저작시 통증을 확인한 후 균열을 가급적 눈으로 확인하는 것이 좋다. 이를 위해 투과광이나 염색과 같은 보조적 방법을 이용할 수 있다. 치료는 즉각적인 통증완화를 위한 교합조정이나 파절편 고정이 필요하며 치수의 상태에 따라 근관치료가 추가적으로 필요할 수도 있다. 궁극적인 치료로는 복합레진이나 접착 아말감으로 균열부위에 가해지는 충격을 완화시킨 후 주조수복물을 이용한 교두보호가 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 균열치에 대한 다양한 원인, 치료, 예후 등에 관한 문헌을 고찰할 것이다.

수냉각 발전기 고정자 권선에서의 냉각수 누수 및 흡습에 의한 절연파괴 손상사례가 국내 및 국외에서 자주 발생되고 있다. 이러한 사고는 막대한 경제적 피해뿐만 아니라 전력의 안정적 공급 측면에서 매우 심각한 계통 사고로 연결될 수 있다. 특히 국내 발전기는 15년 이상 운전되어 열화가 진행된 발전기가 50% 이상이며, 계획예방정비 기간 중에 권선에서의 누설 및 흡습 권선이 종종 발견되고 있다. 기존에는 누수 시험 전 과정인 권선 건조 과정을 무시한 채 누수 시험 결과만으로 권선 누설 여부를 진단하였으나 본 논문에서는 누수 시험을 위한 준비 단계인 진공 건조 시의 권선 내부의 진공도 패턴 분석을 통해 권선 누설 및 흡습 여부를 예측진단할 수 있는 방법을 실험적으로 증명하였다.

Recently, polymer insulators that are used for high voltage applications have some advantages such as light weight, small size, vandalism resistance, hydrophobicity and easy making process. During outdoor service of polymer insulators, the surface of the insulating material is frequently subjected to moisture and contamination that lead to dry band arcing. Their tracking resistance, erosion resistance, end sealing and shed design are very important because dry band arcing causes degradation of polymer surface. Aging test to estimate life property of polymer insulator is executed through several international standard such as IEC 61109 and CEA tracking wheel test, but is not getting clear conclusion yet. There are two methods in the diagnosis method of polymer insulator such as off-line and on-line. The diagnosis methods in off-line are external condition analysis by the eye, contaminant analysis on surface, surface analysis, pollution withstand voltage test, power frequency flashover voltage test, lightning impulse flashover test, tensile fracture load test and flexural load test. Polymer material is also investigated it's tracking resistance by adding surface active agent in IEC 587. In this paper, the tracking performance of polymer insulator with salt solution which is added surface active agent. The diagnosis of insulator sample has been analyzed by leakage current and visual examination, STRI guide and thermal image camera.

Background: With increasing interest in health in old age, aspects of oral aging are being considered. The Korean Academy of Geriatric Dentistry recently proposed the diagnostic criteria for oral frailty in older adults in Korea. This study aimed to conduct a cross-sectional survey of factors related to oral frailty among community-dwelling older adults and identify differences in oral frailty status according to age and sex. Methods: Among 217 older adults aged ≥60 years who visited a senior center in Wonju, 206 completed all tests for oral frailty. Among them, data from those with a Korean Version of the Modified Barthel Index score ≥90 were used in the final analysis. After evaluating oral frailty diagnostic factors such as chewing ability, occlusal force, tongue pressure, oral dryness, oral cleanliness, and swallowing function, oral hypofunction was determined according to the oral frailty diagnostic criteria. Subsequently, the evaluation results were compared based on sex and age. Results: Significant differences in chewing ability, maximum occlusal pressure, and maximum tongue pressure were observed between sexes. However, these differences did not affect oral frailty diagnosis. All diagnostic factors of oral frailty, except for the risk of oral dryness and swallowing dysfunction, showed significant differences with age. However, no significant difference was observed in the prevalence of oral frailty. Additionally, this study found no relationship between sex and oral frailty factors using the oral frailty diagnostic criteria. However, it also found that age plays a significant role as an oral frailty diagnostic indicator, in addition to oral dryness and swallowing function. Conclusion: Sex and age did not affect oral frailty diagnosis. However, patients' chewing ability, occlusal force, and tongue pressure were affected by sex and age. Therefore, sex and age should be considered when diagnosing and intervening in oral frailty in the future.

Maintenance of semiconductor equipment processes is crucial for the continuous growth of the semiconductor market. The process must always be upheld in optimal condition to ensure a smooth supply of numerous parts. Additionally, it is imperative to monitor the status of the robots that play a central role in the process. Just as many senses of organs judge a person's body condition, robots also have numerous sensors that play a role, and like human joints, they can detect the condition first in the joints, which are the driving parts of the robot. Therefore, a normal state test bed and an abnormal state test bed using an aging reducer were constructed by simulating the joint, which is the driving part of the robot. Various sensors such as vibration, torque, encoder, and temperature were attached to accurately diagnose the robot's failure, and the test bed was built with an integrated system to collect and control data simultaneously in real-time. After configuring the user screen and building a database based on the collected data, the characteristic values of normal and abnormal data were analyzed, and machine learning was performed using the KNN (K-Nearest Neighbors) machine learning algorithm. This approach yielded an impressive 94% accuracy in failure diagnosis, underscoring the reliability of both the test bed and the data it produced.

과거로부터 사회 경제학적인 문제로 주목을 받고 있는 요통은 노화와 유의한 관계가 있음이 보고되고 있으며, 이러한 노화에 의해 추간판의 여러 형태 조직학적 변화도 이미 여러 연구를 통해 보고되었으나 노화에 따른 추간판의 크기 변화에 대한 연구와 이러한 추간판의 변화가 요통과 관련이 있는지에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지고 있지 않고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 노화에 의한 추간판 변인의 변화를 알아보고, 이런 요인들이 정상 피검자와 요통 환자 사이에 차이가 있는지를 MRI 실계측에 의해 알아보고자 수행하였다. 본 연구는 근골격계 질환이 없는 20대$\sim$60대의 정상 성인 50명과 $20{\sim}60$대 요통 환자 50명을 대상으로 L4-5, L5-S1 추간판의 가로 직경, 세로 직경 그리고 면적을 MRI 영상을 통해 실계측하여 노화에 따른 변화와 정상 피검자와 요통 환자 사이의 차이를 비교하는 방식으로 진행하였다. 본 연구 결과 L4-5와 L5-S1 추간판의 가로 및 세로 직경, 면적은 노화에 의해 의미 있는 증가 경향을 보였으며 정상 피검자에 비해 요통 환자의 추간판 변인들이 큰 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 추간판의 크기 변화는 노화에 의한 자발적인 변화이며, 요통 환자의 추간판 변인 증가를 요통 진단에 참조할 수 있는 자료로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료되나, 차후 광범위한 피검자를 대상으로 하는 보다 폭넓고 다각적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.
