The choice of suitable hip implant is one of important factors in the total hip arthroplasty (THA). In clinical view point, an improper adaptation of hip implant might induce abnormal stress distribution to the bone, which can shorten the lifespan of replaced hip implant. Currently, interest in the custom-designed hip implants has increased as studies reveal the significance of geometric shape of patient's femur in modeling and designing the implants. In this study, we have developed custom-designed hip implant models with various sizes, and analyzed the stress distribution in the bone and bone cement using the Finite Element Method. It was found that minimizing the gap between implant stem and femoral cavity is crucial to minimize the stress concentration in the bone.

Acoustic characteristics of a sound absorbing material can be identified, if the characteristic impedance and propagation constants are known, which have generally been determined experimentally. One easy method determining these two essential parameters is to measure the one dimensional wave characteristics in the impedance tube. In th udy, the effects of backing conditions on the impedance tube measurement have been examined using several pairs of generally used end conditions. The results showed that the measured values are similar for most pairs of end conditions: however, it was observed that the measured characteristic impedance for different thickness did not agree well for some pairs. In this work, the multi termination method, using three or more known backing con ns, was suggested to reduce such random errors, which are mostly caused by the test procedure. Employing three terminations as a set, comprised of a rigid end, an end with porous material, and an end with a backing cavity, it was demonstrated that improved measured results could be obtained for an open cell PU foam varying widely with three different thicknesses.

Cavities of Class V are caused by heavy occlusal loads due to bruxism and clenching habit. It is general to restore abfraction lesions with dental filler materials to reduce stress concentration. A material should be selected from various dental products based on long term clinical experiences or personal preference concerning filler methods. A quantitative criterion is necessary to make an evaluation of the results as dentists decide treatment methods and dental materials relying on their clinical experiences. The purpose of this study is to find an optimal restoration method and material for noncarious cervical lesions using the finite element method. An objective function was defined to minimize the sum of tensile and compressive stresses. Several models with different combinations of resins were suggested and compared in terms of the values of objective function. An optimal solution was to fill TetricFlow inside the lesion and Z100 in the remaining region with a thickness ratio of 0.125.

Warm forming technology was classified into hot gas forming of using compressible fluid as a nitrogen gas and warm hydroforming of using the incompressible fluid as a thermal oil by using medium fluid. In this study, the aluminum side-rail part was developed with warm hydroforming technology. For the warm hydroforming system, top and bottom die was designed to insert heating cartridge in die cavity and special indirect fluid heating system was designed to heat the thermal oil. As increase the temperature, hydroformability was increased linearly. Aluminum side-rail center part was formed 90% at the internal pressure of 100bar and perfectly formed at 300bar within a moderate temperature. The tube material used for warm hydroforming was a aluminum 6000 series alloy with the diameter of 120mm, thickness of 5mm, length of 1,300mm. Warm hydroformed side-rail center part had 20% of maximum expansion ratio and below 20% of maximum thinning ratio at corner radius. This results were provided to show warm hydroforming possibility for aluminum automotive components.

Rapid mold heating has been recent issue to enable the injection molding of thin-walled parts or micro/nano structures. Induction heating is an efficient way to heat material by means of an electric current that is caused to flow through the material or its container by electromagnetic induction. It has various applications such as heat treatment, brazing, welding, melting, and mold heating. The present study covers an experimental investigation of induction heating in order to rapidly raise the mold temperature. It is observed that the mold surface temperature is raised up to $200^{\circ}C$ in 2 seconds. This induction heating is applied to injection molding of a flexspline for a plastic harmonic drive, which has difficulty in cavity filling because its minimum thickness is only 0.35 mm. The induction heating is then successfully implemented on this ultra-thin wall molding by raising the mold surface temperature around the glass-transition temperature of the molding material.

The purpose of this study was to observe the minim pins of Link plus (which has buttress thread and shoulder stop design) inserted into dentin and the dentin surrounding pin. The gingival walls of class II cavity were prepared with high speed handpiece in molar teeth not elapsed time after teeth were extracted, and pinhole of 2mm in depth was positioned about 1 mm to the dentinoenamel junction and minim pin was inserted with wrench. After initial examination of the specimens, the specimens were sectioned longitudinally and horizontally to the pins with carborundum disc and low speed diamond saw (Isomet Buehler Ltd) All specimens were coated Au of 250-300${\AA}$ in thickness with Ion Sputter JFC 100 and observed under Scanning Electron Microscope (JSM-35) The following results were obtained. 1. The shoulder stop was seated on the enterance of pinhole in gingival wall, and there were the irregular space between the pin and dentin at the enterance to the pin hole and flakes of dentin lifting from the dentin floor. 2. In case of section to pin horizontally or longitudinally, the dentin debris were observed in gap between pin and dentin, and small cracks were often seen in the dentin surrounding minim pins.

Micro cell structures with high aspect ratio were fabricated by injection molding method. The mold inserts had dimension $1.9cm\times8.3cm$ composed of a lot of micro posts and were fabricated by LIGA process. The size of the micro posts was $157{\mu}m\times157{\mu}m\times500{\mu}m$ and the gaps between two adjacent posts were $50{\mu}m$. Using Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) injection molding was performed. The key experimental variables were temperature, pressure, and time. By controlling these, good shaped mim cell structures with $50{\mu}m$ in wall thickness and $500{\mu}m$ in depth were obtained. In order to understand micro molding mechanism, shape changes of molded PMMA were studied with experimental variables. And the durability of mold insert was investigated, too. The results show that the most important factor in molding processes was the mold temperature that is closely related to the filling of the melt into the micro cavity. And the holding time before cooling showed a great effect on the quality of molded PMMA.

A dash panel component, close to passengers, plays a very important role to protect heat and noise from a power train. Meanwhile, it is also a main path that transfers vibration energy and eventually radiates acoustic noise into the cavity. Therefore, it seems important to provide an optimal design scheme incorporating sound packages such as dash isolation pad and carpet, as well as structures. The present study is the extension of the previous investigation how design variables affect sound radiation, which was carried out using the simple plate and framed system. The system taken into account in this paper is a dash panel component of a sedan, which includes A pillar, front side member, dash panel and the corresponding sound packages. Design variables such as panel thickness and sound package layers are investigated how they are related for the better radiation performance (i.e. structure-borne) and sound transmission loss (i.e. air borne).

이상으로부터 비 cavitation 정상상태인 박용 TP620 익형의 점성의 영향에 의한 배제두께를 고려했을 경우의 익특성을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 점성의 영향에 의한 압력분포는 전연부분에서는 부압의 피크가 사라지고 후연부에서는 겉보기 익두께 생성에 의해서 potential 유동의 상이형을 보이는 것은 burst 유동으로 후연부분 유동에 큰 영향이 없음을 알 수 있다. 2. 배제 두께 및 운동량 두께는 층류부분보다 난류부분의 증가비율이 크고 속도 구배가 0인 천이점 부근에서 불연속으로 인해 점성력에 의한 초생 cavity의 존재 가능성을 배제 투께 a 및 운동량 두께 분포로부터 알 수 있다. 3. 점성에 의한 배제 두께의 생성으로 원익형의 단면은 사실상 증가하며 이를 고려한 경우 익성능이 약간 감소했다.

To determine the thickness of coronal hard structure the minimal distance between pupal surface and outer surface of crown was measured by means of Bowley gauge on extracted first molars. Upper(28 teeth) and lower(24 teeth) were carefully collected from 30-39 years of age and male. The teeth were split mesio-distally through central pit. On the split surface various part which are deeply related in cavity preparation were measured (schematic drawing). The results were as follows: A : Distance from mesio-cervical enamel to pulp chamber surface. upper $2.63{\pm}0.19$(mm) Lower $2.18{\pm}0.27$(um) B : Distance from mesial chamber ceiling to mesial surface upper $2.75{\pm}0.34$ Lower $2.62{\pm}0.31$ C : Distance from mesial chamber ceiling to occlusal surface upper $3.82{\pm}0.51$ Lower $3.49{\pm}0.50$ D : Distance from distal chamber ceiling to occlusal surface upper $4.28{\pm}0.69$ Lower $3.90{\pm}0.52$ E : Distance from distal chamber ceiling to distal surface upper $2.79{\pm}0.45$ Lower $2.41{\pm}0.40$ F : Distance from disto cervical enamel to pulp chamber surface upper $2.49{\pm}0.24$ Lower $2.39{\pm}0.25$.
