The appearance and function of corpora lutea(CL) with a central cavity in the ovaries of Korean Native Cattle (KNC) were investigated endocrinologically and histochemically. The CL were enucleated from KNC ovaries within 2~3 hrs local slaughter house and classified with central cavity CL or not. Enzymatically dispersed luteal cell (1$\times$106 live cell/ml of Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Media) with or without cavity of CL cultured at 37$^{\circ}C$ in a humidified incubation (5% CO2 : 95% air) for 72hr. A central cavity in the CL of KNC was found in 58.8% of CL-1, 34.9% of CL 2, 39.1% of CL-3, and 11.1% of CL-4, respectively. There were no significant difference between protein content of CL with and without a central cavity. Mean progesterone secretion after 36h of in vitro luteal cell culture were significantly (p<0.05) higher in CL with central cavity than without cavity. However, the luteal cavitic wall was composed of the connective tissue band of the reticular and collagen fibers and then these connective tissue band extended into the CL with cavity. These results suggest that the central cavity of CL may be caused infertility in KNC.

This study was conducted to investigate total protein, DNA, and RNA content in corpus luteum(CL) without and with central cavity in dairy cow. Stage of the estrous cycle of corpus luteum from slaughterhouse(CL3, days 11 to 17) was classified by method of Ireland et. al.(1980). Corpus luteum was classified into corpus luteum without(less than 2mm in diameter) and with central cavity(more than 2mm in diameter) by method of Kastelic et. al.(1990). 1 In total protein content, CL with central cavity did not differ from CL without central cavity. 2. In DNA content, CL with central cavity was significantly lower than CL without central cavity(p＜0.05). 3. In protein: DNA ratios, CL with central cavity was significantly lower than CL without central cavity(p＜0.05). 4. But in RNA content, protein:RNA and RNA:DNA ratios, CL with central cavity did not differ from CL without central cavity.

For the purpose of an estimation of age based on the changes in the human dental cavity caused by increase in age, 1,208 extracted teeth in the parts from central incisors and lateral incisors and lateral incisors to second premolars of upper and lower, right and left side were evaluated and analized all of surface index of pulp cavity. The results are as follows : 1. The surface index of pulp caxities of upper and lower, central and lateral incisors, and tend to decrease regularly as the age increase. So above teeth are more applicable to age estimation than canine and premolars. 2 For the purpose of age estimation by surface index of pulp cavity of central and lateral incisor, linear equations are as follows. Upper central incisor: X=(16.301-Y)/0.12 Upper lateral incisor: X=(16.620-Y)/0.11 Lower central incisor: X=(20.963-Y)/0.16 X=Age Y=Surface index of pulp cavity Correlation coefficient between chronologic age and estimated age is 0.699 3.The least error(3.3 yrs of age)reveals in 41-45 age group, which shows the highest possibility of estimation of age. The highest error(4.1 yrs of age)reveals in 61-65 age group and 56-60 age group.

An elastic-plastic solution for cavity expansion problem considering strength degradation, undrained condition and initial anisotropic in-situ stress is established based on the Tresca yield criterion and cavity expansion theory. Assumptions of large-strain for plastic region and small-strain for elastic region are adopted, respectively. The initial in-situ stress state of natural soil mass may be anisotropic caused by consolidation history, and the strength degradation of soil mass is caused by structural damage of soil mass in the process of loading analysis (cavity expansion process). Finally, the published solutions are conducted to verify the suitability of this elastic-plastic solution, and the parametric studies are investigated in order to the significance of this study for in-situ soil test.

In injection molding, the quality of an injection molded product varies greatly depending on the molding conditions. Many researche studies have been conducted on the quality analysis of molded parts according to the molding conditions such as injection pressure, injection temperature, and packing pressure. However, there have not been many studies on the V/P switchover timing. It is known that when a large pressure is applied to a cavity in the packing phase, the cavity pressure is most affected by the packing pressure. In addition, depending on the position (timing) of the packing pressure, it can have a direct influence on quality based on the shrinkage and dimensions of the molded parts. In this study, the change in pressure profile in the cavity according to the V/P switchover position is confirmed. A CAE analysis program (Moldflow) was used to simulate and analyze two models using the PC and PBT materials. In order to compare these results with the actual injection molding results, injection molding was performed for each V/P switchover position, and the correlation between simulation and experiment, especially for the shrinkage of molded parts, was evaluated.

This study presents an elasto-plastic (EP) solution for drained cavity expansion on the basis of unified strength failure criterion and considers the influence of initial stress state. Because of the influence of initial consolidation of soil mass, the initial stress may be anisotropic in the natural soil mass. In addition, the undrained hypothesis is usually used in the calculation of cavity expansion problem, but most of the cases are in the drained situation in practical engineering. Eventually, the published solution and the presented solution are compared to verify the suitability of the study.

In this study, both 2D and 3D failure shapes of rock mass above the water-filled cavity are put forward when the surrounding rock mass cannot bear the pressure caused by the water-filled cavity. Based on the analytical expressions derived by kinematic approach, the profiles of active and passive failure patterns are plotted. The sensitivity analysis is conducted to explore the influences of different rock parameters on the failure profiles. During the excavation of the deep tunnels above the karst cavity, the water table always changes because of progressive failure of cavity roof. Therefore, it is meaningful to discuss the effects of varying water level on the failure patterns of horizontal rock layers. The changing laws of the scope of the failure pattern obtained in this work show good consistency with the fact, which could be used to provide a guide in engineering.

In this study, we propose a new short dental implant and investigate its bio-mechanical characteristics by using three dimensional finite element analyses. The proposed dental implant has the central cavity which can be integrated with the core of cancellous bone remained by trepanning drill. We take the Bicon short implant as a reference model for studying the effects according to the shape of cavity. The parametric finite element model using ANSYS APDL has been built to determine which length, diameter and thread of central cavity would be effective to dissipate stress. The reduction of undesirable stress in adjacent bone which can suppress bone defects and the eventual failure of implants. The numerical results shows that the cavity of well-determined shape has the beneficial effects on reducing the bone absorption in cancellous bone.

The problem of cylindrical cavity expansion incorporating deformation dependent of intermediate principal stress in rock or soil mass is investigated in the paper. Assumptions that the initial axial total strain is a non-zero constant and the axial plastic strain is not zero are defined to obtain the numerical solution of strain which incorporates deformation-dependent intermediate principal stress. The numerical solution of plastic strains are achieved by the 3-D plastic potential functions based on the M-C and generalized H-B failure criteria, respectively. The intermediate principal stress is derived with the Hook's law and plastic strains. Solution of limited expansion pressure, stress and strain during cylindrical cavity expanding are given and the corresponding calculation approaches are also presented, which the axial stress and strain are incorporated. Validation of the proposed approach is conducted by the published results.
