근관치료된 치아의 수복에서 fiber post 크기와 포스트 공간의 직경이 일치하지 않은 경우, 포스트 공간은 두꺼운 레진 시멘트로 채워지게 된다. 레진 시멘트가 두꺼워지면 시멘트 내에 기포가 형성되어 포스트 분리가 발생되기 쉽다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방법은 composite resin을 이용하여 fiber post를 relining하는 것이다. 이렇게 형성된 해부학적 포스트는 포스트 공간에 잘 적합하고 시멘트의 두께를 감소시킨다. 이 연구의 목적은 relining 과정과 임상 과정의 간소화를 위해 사용되고 있는 luting agents 종류에 따른 fiber post의 push-out 결합 강도를 평가하는 것이다. 42개의 발치된 치아는 6개의 그룹(n=7)으로 나누어졌다. (A1: relined fiber post를 Luxacore/all-bond 2로 합착, A2: non-relined fiber post를 Luxacore/all-bond 2로 합착. B1: relined fiber post를 Calibra/XP-bond로 합착. B2: non-relined fiber post를 Calibra/XP-bond로 합착. C1: relined fiber post를 RelyX Unicem으로 합착. C2: non-relined fiber post를 RelyX Unicem으로 합착.) Push-out 결합 강도는 relining procedure와 cement type의 상호작용에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. relined fiber post 그룹이 non-relined fiber post 그룹보다 더 높은 결합 강도를 가지며 fiber post relining 과정은 결합강도에 유의한 영향을 가진다.(p<0.05) Luting agent에 따라 모든 그룹에서 RelyX Unicem의 결합강도가 Luxacore/All-bond 2와 Calibra/XP bond에 의한 것보다 유의하게 더 높았다(p<0.05).

신경 손상 정도를 평가하기 위한 정량적감각평가(Quantitative Sensory Testing, QST) 방법 중 하나인 전류인지역치(Current Perception Threshold, CPT) 검사는 비교적 짧은 시간 내에 3가지 감각신경, 2000 Hz(A${\beta}$ fiber), 250 Hz(A${\delta}$ fiber), 5 Hz(C fiber)에 대한 기능을 평가 할 수 있다고 알려져 있지만, 그 재현성에 대해서는 여전히 상반된 견해가 존재한다. 본 연구는 CPT 검사의 재현성을 확인하고, 재현성을 향상시키기 위한 방법을 모색하고자 하였다. 건강한 남성 지원자 10명(평균 22.4세)을 대상으로 3주 동안 1주일 간격으로 2명의 검사자가 하악신경 영역을 각각 좌우로 나누어 3회 측정하여 비교 하였다. 3주에 걸친 측정 실험에서 2000 Hz(A${\beta}$ fiber)의 CPT는 3회 모두 좌우 측정치가 차이를 보인 반면(p<0.05), 250Hz(A${\delta}$ fiber)는 1회만 유의한 차이를 보였고(p<0.05), 5 Hz(C fiber)는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 좌우를 나누어 3회의 실험을 비교했을 때 모든 신경 검사에서 첫 회의 CPT가 가장 낮았으며, 250 Hz(A${\delta}$ fiber)와 5 Hz(C fiber)의 CPT는 첫 번째 실험과 나머지 실험사이에 유의한 차이가 있었고(p<0.05), 두 번째 실험 이후로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 상기의 결과로 보아 2000 Hz(A${\beta}$ fiber)의 CPT를 이용한 좌우 신경의 기능 비교는 적절하지 않은 반면, 250 Hz(A${\delta}$ fiber)와 5 Hz(C fiber)에서는 좌우 비교가 가능할 것으로 생각된다. 또한 반복 측정을 통해 250 Hz(A${\delta}$ fiber)와 5 Hz(C fiber)의 CPT 검사의 재현성을 높일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The effect of heat treatment temperature (HTT) on the mechanical properties of polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based carbon fiber had been investigated. The heat treatment on the carbon fiber was conducted under high vacuum atmosphere of $10^{-6}mmHg$, and the range of temperature of $1,000^{\circ}C$ to $2,000^{\circ}C$. As a results, The tensile strength of carbon fiber and carbon fiber composites showed increasing tendency with the rise of heat treatment temperature. And, the shape parameter of Weibull distribution for the strength of carbon single fiber showed an increasing trend until $1,800^{\circ}C$. But the shape parameter of Weibull distribution for the strength of carbon fiber composites showed no clear tendency with the rise of heat treatment temperature. The cause of reinforcement effect of the carbon fiber by the heat treatment was regarded as the carbonization of carbon single fiber.

The use of optical fiber makes it possible to transfer a large amount of data, thereby enabling a high-speed image transmission with a high response speed and a large number of frames. The need for an optical fiber HDMI System has grown in importance due to the rapid development of displays with large sizes and high-resolution images. In this paper, we have studied the structural design and FEM analysis of a 4C fiber guide for hybrid interconnection implementation. According to the structural analysis of the fiber guide, we have confirmed the safety of the design and we will make additional design changes to minimize the optical loss and fabricate a fiber guide for photoelectric composite HDMI in the future.

SiC fibers were coated with Cu, Ag and Ni metallic thin films by magnetron sputtering in order to improve wetting properties between Al matrix and SiC fiber. The wetting behavior of metal coated SiC fiber by pure Al has been studied at $670^{\circ}C{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ range for $10{\sim}90min$. under vacuum atmosphere. Besides, the effect of coated film thickness on the wettability has been investigated. The wetting behavior and interfacial reaction between Al and SiC fibers were analysed with optical microscope and SEM (scanning electron microscope). The wetting behavior of the as-received SiC fiber with Al melt was not uniform, indicated by the contact angles from less than $90^{\circ} to more Al melt was appeared in the initial stage of reation. It was considered that the metallic thin film played an important role in reducing the interfacial free energy and breaking down the aluminum oxide film by eutectic reaction with Al melt. However the wettability of Ni coated SiC fiber was not improved as much as that of Cu or Ag coated SiC fiber. The improvement of wettability by coating thickness is clearly showed in $1{\mu}m$ coated SiC fiber compared with $0.25{\mu}m$ coated SiC.

Calcium ions are implicated in a variety of physiological functions, including enzyme activity, membrane excitability, neurotransmitter release, and synaptic transmission, etc. Calcium antagonists have been known to be effective for the treatment of exertional angina and essential hypertension. Selective and nonselective voltage-dependent calcium channel blockers also have inhibitory action on the acute and tonic pain behaviors resulting from thermal stimulation, subcutaneous formalin injection and nerve injury. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of iontophoretically applied $Ca^{++}$ and its antagonists on the responses of WDR (wide dynamic range) cells to sensory inputs. The responses of WDR cells to graded electrical stimulation of the afferent nerve and also to thermal stimulation of the receptive field were recorded before and after iontophoretical application of $Ca^{++}$, EGTA, $Mn^{++}$, verapamil, ${\omega}-conotoxin$ GVIA, ${\omega}-conotoxin$ MVIIC and ${\omega}-agatoxin$ IVA. Also studied were the effects of a few calcium antagonists on the C-fiber responses of WDR cells sensitized by subcutaneous injection of mustard oil (10%). Calcium ions and calcium channel antagonists ($Mn^{++}$, verapamil, ${\omega}-conotoxin$ GVIA & ${\omega}-agatoxin$ IVA) current-dependently suppressed the C-fiber responses of WDR cells without any significant effects on the A-fiber responses. But ${\omega}-conotoxin$ MVIIC did not have any inhibitory actions on the responses of WDR cell to A-fiber, C-fiber and thermal stimulation. Iontophoretically applied EGTA augmented the WDR cell responses to C-fiber and thermal stimulations while spinal application of EGTA for about $20{\sim}30\;min$ strongly inhibited the C-fiber responses. The augmenting and the inhibitory actions of EGTA were blocked by calcium ions. The WDR cell responses to thermal stimulation of the receptive field were reduced by iontophoretical application of $Ca^{++}$, verapamil, ${\omega}-agatoxin$ IVA, and ${\omega}-conotoxin$ GVIA but not by ${\omega}-conotoxin$ MVIIC. The responses of WDR cells to C-fiber stimulation were augmented after subcutaneous injection of mustard oil (10%, 0.15 ml) into the receptive field and these sensitized C-fiber responses were strongly suppressed by iontophoretically applied $Ca^{++}$, verapamil, ${\omega}-conotoxin$ GVIA and ${\omega}-agatoxin$ IVA. These experimental findings suggest that in the rat spinal cord, L-, N-, and P-type, but not Q-type, voltage-sensitive calcium channels are implicated in the calcium antagonist-induced inhibition of the normal and the sensitized responses of WDR cells to C-fiber and thermal stimulation, and that the suppressive effect of calcium and augmenting action of EGTA on WDR cell responses are due to changes in excitability of the cell.

In this study, SiC powder was added to twill woven carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites to improve its mechanical properties. An acoustic emission (AE) frequency analysis method was suggested for the prediction of failure behaviors. Tensile tests were conducted and the fracture characteristics of each component of the SiC reinforced composite were evaluated using AE. The results showed that SiC powder improved the strength of twill woven CFRP composites and the fracture behavior of the SiC reinforced CFRP composite and its crack extension could be effectively evaluated on the basis of the specific AE frequency bands which are 100 to 228 kHz and 428 to 536 kHz upon the resin failure and 232 to 424 kHz due to addition of SiC powder and 576 to 864 kHz at the fiber breakage.

Continuous SiC fiber-reinforced SiC-matrix composites ($SiC_f$/SiC) had been fabricated by electrophoretic infiltration combined with ultrasonication. Nano-sized ${\beta}$-SiC added with 12 wt% of $Al_2O_3-Y_2O_3$ additive and Tyranno$^{TM}$-SA3 fabric were used as a matrix phase and fiber reinforcement, respectively. After hot pressing at 5 different conditions, the density, microstructure and mechanical properties of $SiC_f$/SiC were characterized. Hot pressing at relatively severe conditions, such as $1750^{\circ}C$ for 1 and 2 h, resulted in a brittle fracture behavior due to the strong fiber-matrix interface in spite of their high flexural strength. On the other hand, toughened $SiC_f$/SiC composite could be achieved by hot pressing at milder condition because of the formation of weak interface in spite of the decreased flexural strength. These results proposed the importance of weak fiber-matrix interface in the fabrication of ductile $SiC_f$/SiC composite.

In this study, the effect of molding condition on the tensile properties for plain woven hemp fiber reinforced green composite was examined. The tensile properties of the composite were compared with those of the plain woven jute fiber composite fabricated by the same process. Emulsion type biodegradable resin or polypropylene sheet was used as matrix. The composites were processed by the compression molding where the molding temperature and its heating time were changed from 160 to $190^{\circ}C$ and from 15 to 25 min, respectively. The following results were obtained from the experiment. The tensile property of hemp fiber reinforced polypropylene is improved in comparison with polypropylene bulk. The strength of composite is about 2.6 times that of the resin bulk specimen. Hemp fiber is more effective than jute fiber as reinforcement for green composite from the viewpoint of strength. The molding temperature and time are suitable below $180^{\circ}C$ and 20 min for hemp fiber reinforced green composite. Hemp fiber green composite has a tendency to decrease its tensile strength when fiber content is over 50 wt%.

Hi-Nicalon SiC fiber reinforced SiC composites (SiC/SiC) have been fabricated by the reaction sintering process. Braided Hi-Nicalon SiC fiber with double interphases of BN and SiC was used in this composite system. The microstructures and the mechanical properties of reaction sintered SiC/SiC composites were investigated through means of electron microscopies (SEM, TEM, EDS) and bending tests. The matrix morphology of reaction sintered SiC/SiC composites was composed of the SiC phases that the composition of the silicon and the carbon is different. The TEM analysis showed that the residual silicon and the unreacted carbon were finely distributed in the matrix region of reaction sintered SiC/SiC composites. Reaction sintered SiC/SiC composites also represented proper flexural strength and fracture energy, accompanying the noncatastrophic failure behavior.
