Recently the sub-micron structured substrates of 0.74 ${mu}ell$ track pitch and 800 $\AA$groove depth are required for DVD-RAM and the track pitch is expected to be narrower as the need for the information storage density is getting higher. For the accurate replication of the land-groove structure in the stamper to the plastic substrates it is important to control the injection -compression molding process such that the integrity of the replication for the land-groove structure is maximized. in the present study polycarbonate substrates were fabricated by injection comression molding and the land-groove structure regarded as one of mold temperature and the compression pressure on the integrity of the replication were examined experimentally. An efficient design methodology using the response surface method (RSM) the central composite design(CCD) technique and the analysis-of-variance (ANOVA) was developed to obtain the optimum processing conditions which maximize the integrity of the replication with a limited number of experiments.

The development of the lobe pattern in the human dentition plays a part in the form and function of each individual teeth. In order to determin the morphological categories used to describe the occlusal surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular molars, the variation of the developmental grooves which separate each lobe in the molars was examined and analysed. The obtained conclusions were as follow. 1. Most of the maxillary first molars with more distinct and more developmental grooves than the other molars but in most cases of the third molar, a heart-shaped outline due to poorly developed or abscent distolingual cusp was most frequent and in this case the third molar had the 3 cusps separated by the central developmental groove and the buccal developmental groove. 2. In most cases, the mandibular first molar had the 5-cusp type that the groove patter resembles a Y, the second molar the 4-cusp type arranged in such a way that the buccal and lingual developmental grooves meet the central developmental groove at right angle on the occlusal surface and many instances of the mandibular third molars had the 5-cusp thpe with a+groove pattern which separatess the mesiolingual cusp from the distobuccal cusp and the 4-cusp type with a+groove pattern. 3. The maxillary and mandibular third molar were most variable in the developmental groove.

Statement of problem : Clinically, maxillary first premolar has a high risk of fracture. This is thought to be caused by the susceptible figure which the maxillary first premolar has In other words, sharp cusp angles of the premolar is thought to influence this situation. Purpose : This study was to know stress distribution of all-ceramic crown according to the cusp angle. Material and Method : It was manufactured a three dimensional finite element model simplified maxillary first premolar, and then analyzed stress distribution when cusp angle was each $80^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, $100^{\circ}$, $110^{\circ}$ and $120^{\circ}$. Results and conclusion : 1. The von Misses stress showed that stress decreases as cusp angle increases in the central groove of the occlusal surface. 2. It showed that maximum principal stress was centered at the region of the central groove of the occlusal surface and a region which the force was inflicted. And also it appeared high on the lingual and buccal side of finish line. 3. The X axis of normal stress was focused in the central groove of the occlusal surface. The Y axis normal stress appeared high in the central groove of the occlusal surface, buccal and lingual side. 4. The Stress near the finish line showed a low value compared with stress in the region of the central groove of the occlusal surface. 5. It shows that the most dangerous angle for tooth fracture was on $80^{\circ}$ of the cusp angle and low on $120^{\circ}$ of its.

Purpose : Average humeral head retroversion was showed significant wide range from literatures based on variable measuring technique, We performed computed tomography(CT) study in an effort to define the specific anatomy relationships and evaluate their use. Materials and Methods : Two hundreds shoulders and distal humeri CT scan with no known pathology were examined. The study population was divided to 10 groups by gender and age (from third to seventh decade). The number of each group was twenty. Retroversion of proximal humerus and glenoid were measured using the lines that were connected the central axis of humeral head, central points of the humeral epicondyles paralleling to the trochlea, paralled to the glenoid surface, midpoint between the transverse glenoid diameter and medial edge of the scapular. We also measured the bicipital groove distance from the humeral central axis and scapulothoracic angle. Results: Retroversion of proximal humerus was highly variable, ranging in this study from 13 to 58 degrees(mean 28.73) These values correlated with sex, not age, height or hand dominance. Glenoid retroversion at the inferior sections showed average 1.3 degree, did not signigicant differences. The central axis was an average of l0mm(5-15mm) posterior to the posterior margin of the bicipital groove. Scapulothoracic angle was average 43 degrees(25-53 degrees) Conclusion: Anatomical reconstruction of retroversion angle should be individualized and bicipital groove could be useful as landmark for the lateral fin of the prosthesis to be positioned an average of 10mm posteriorly.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the cusp variation pattern of the Korean mandibular second premolar and to determine the difference in tooth diameter and surface area using a virtual three-dimensional model. Methods: Dental casts from 69 students were scanned as a virtual dental models with a three-dimensional dental model scanner. Tooth diameter, absolute and relative individual areas, total crown area, the number of lingual cusps and central groove pattern were analyzed using RapidForm 2004. The Mann-Whitney U-test and the Kruskal-Wallis test were performed to verify sexual dimorphism, the difference in tooth diameter and surface according to the cusp variation pattern (α=0.05). Results: There was no significant difference except in buccolingual diameter (p<0.05) and buccolingual diameter at the cervix (p<0.05). The relative surface area of the total clinical crown was 65.76% for the buccal half and 34.24% for the lingual half, with a ratio of 2:1. In the case of the presence of two lingual cusps, the ratio was 21.47% for the mesiolingual half and 14.12% for the distaolingual half, with a ratio of 3:2. The dominant central groove patterns of the second premolar were the H-pattern (42.0%), followed by the Y-pattern (37.7%), then the U-pattern (20.3%). The relative buccal half was largest in the U-pattern central groove and the relative lingual half was largest in the Y-pattern central groove (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study is significant in that it measured quantitative surface areas and the findings could be a meaningful reference to comprehend dental anatomy in Koreans.

In this work, the dynamic characteristics of an oil-lubricated, short SFD with a central feeding groove are derived based on a theoretical analysis considering the effect of a groove. The validity of the analysis is investigated experimentally using an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system as an exciter. For the theoretical solution, the fluid film forces of a grooved SFD are analytically derived so that the dynamic coefficients of a SFD are expressed in terms of its design parameters. (omitted)

We made a 12-Laser Diode Array consisting of 12 Graded Index Separate Confinement (GRINSCH) InGaAs/Inp Buried Heterostructure 4 Quantum Well Laser Diodes and examined the potential of controlling lasing operation of each laser diode by the voltage to its electroabsorption region. Using Si V-Groove with 12 V-grooves, a 12-Laser Diode Array, and 12 optical fibers, we investigated the various characteristics of each laser diode by changing the voltage to its electro-absorption region. Finally, we thought over the promising way of implementing optical local area communication between electric circuit boards or between subscribers and a central office using a 12-Laser Diode Array, Si V-groove, and optical fibers.

In this work, the dynamic characteristics of an oil-lubricated, short SFD with a central feeding groove are derived based on a theoretical analysis considering the effect of a groove. The validity of the analysis is investigated experimentally using an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system as an exciter. For the theoretical solution, the fluid film forces of a grooved SFD are analytically derived so that the dynamic coefficients of a SFD are expressed in terms of its design parameters. For the experimental validation of the analysis, a test rig using AMB as an exciter is proposed to identify the dynamic characteristics of a short SFD with a central groove. As an exciter, the AMB represents a mechatronic device to levitate and position the test journal without any mechanical contact, to generate relative motions of the journal inside the tested SFD and to measure the generated displacements during experiments with fairly high accuracy. Using this test rig, experiments are extensively conducted with different clearance, which is one of the most important design parameters, in order to investigate its effect on the dynamic characteristics and the performance of SFDs. Damping and inertia coefficients of the SFD that are experimentally identified are compared with the analytical results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the analysis. It is also shown that AMB is an ideal device for tests of SFDs.
