This study was performed, by Finite Element Method, to evaluate the stress distribution on the periodontal tissue according to activation of the various closing loops and to predict the pattern of movement of maxillary incisors. At the same time, bull loop, key-hole loop, T-loop, combination loop and asymmetrical T-loop which were used for retraction of maxillary incisors was analysed by Finite Element Method. The following results were obtained 1. Horizontal force was the greatest in bull loop, the followed by key-hole loop, combination loop, T-loop and initial tooth movement exhibited uncontrolled tipping. 2. Horizontal force in asymmetrical T-loop compared to other closing loops was remarkably decreased, and the intrusive force on the incisors occurred. 3. As torque was increased, the moment was increased as a linear increment. 4. As moment was increased, initial movement of tooth changed to root movement from uncontrolled tipping.

This study deals with the university students who experienced closing department in the restructuring process of university. The purpose of this study is to examine what kind of experience university students have experienced and to understand the essence of the experience in depth. For this purpose, the subjects of the study conducted in - depth interviews with 6 students who expressed their intention to participate in the study. Results of the study were analyzed through the phenomenological study procedure of Giorgi, a qualitative research method. As a result, eight essential themes and sixteen sub themes were derived. The eight essential themes are 'an event of a psychological difficulty', 'deepening a negative emotions', 'anxiety about the future', 'desperation', 'discrimination', 'efforts to overcome difficulties', 'regret and sorriness' and 'acceptance'. Participants in this study suggested ways to reduce psychological difficulties for students who were in closing department condition. Participants said that they needed to provide accurate information about closing department, provide students with the right to know, prepare alternative plans, and emotional cares. The implications of these results are discussed.

We study the closing characteristics of a self-sustainable poppet valve which serves as a main oxidizer shut-off valve for liquid rocket engines. Numerical analysis for predicting closing transient responses are presented and the calculated results have been verified by a comparison with experimental data. The effective area of a pilot gas discharge system and the pressure distribution of passage flow around the valve moving part are shown to be main parameters in determining the closing characteristics for dry and cryogenic conditions, respectively. Moreover, it is presented that the passage flow pressure at the valve closing moment as well as the valve closing velocity can be effectively adjusted by the appropriate employment of the pilot gas.

Recently the instantaneous centre concept has been used to understand the biomechanics by which a tissue derangement causes a mechanical derangement in temporomandibular joint. In this study, four male subjects without temporomandibular joint disorder and malocclusion were selected for the determination of the instantaneous centre of rotation (I.C.R) in the mandibular movement. The habitual opening and closing paths were recorded on the sagittal plate by two spring pencils attached on the lower anterior teeth which was designed for this study, and the I.C.R. was calculated by the computer program of Rouleaux's method. Also the computer graphic opening and closing movements of mandible were obtained according to the determined I.C.R. The results obtained from this study were as follows. 1. The instantaneous centres of rotation were not positioned within the condyle in the mandibular opening and closing movement. 2. There was some similarity between the anatomical curvature of the articular emience and the movement pattern of condyle. 3. The opening path and the closing path of the most superior pl)int of the condyle stowed a slight difference. 4. At the early stage of the habitual opening movement, the condyle was moved downward. 5. The opening and closing mandibular movements were simulated by the instantaneous centre of rotation which was determined by the computer program of Rouleaux's method.

Background This study evaluated dynamic changes in eyebrow position related to aging. Methods Female participants were recruited and separated into two groups aged 20-30 years (the younger group, n=20; mean age, 24.8 years) and 50-70 years (the older group, n=20; mean age, 55.8 years). Photogrammetry was used to determine the eyebrow position at the medial canthus (MC), lateral limbus, lateral canthus, and lateral end point (EP) for 6 actions: smooth opening (the reference action) and closing of the eye, forward gaze, maximum opening and closing of the eye, and maximum frown. Videos were also recorded. Results No differences in eyebrow position were detected at the MC when opening or closing the eyes smoothly, gazing straight ahead, or closing the eyes maximally. For all 6 actions, the position of the lateral EP in the older group was significantly lower than in the younger group (P=0.003), and the smallest degree of vertical movement at this point was found in both age groups (P<0.001). Vertical movement at the 4 landmarks of the eyebrows decreased with aging. Conclusions Eyebrow position was unchanged at the MC with aging, except at maximal eye opening and maximal frown. No differences in eyebrow position were observed between the younger and older groups when eyes were maximally closed, except at the EP. It is important to focus on correction of the lateral EP for periorbital rejuvenation.
