The aim of this study was to compare the effects of three Ni-Ti instruments on leaning ability by evaluating the volumetric and morphological changes in the apical 6mm of the root canals before and after preparation, using three-dimensionally reconstructed root canals of extracted human teeth. Forty-five teeth were used in this study. They were opened the chambers and removed the all pulp remnants ultrasonically. Subsequently, the canal wall was coated with silver paste and prepared using ProTaper, ProFile and GT rotary files according to the manufacturers instructions. Before and after root canal preparation, all the specimens were scanned with micro computed tomography and examined the differences in dentine volume removed, canal straightening, the proportion of the unchanged area and canal transportation. Quantitative analysis revealed that instrumentation increased in canal volume ranging between 0.081 and $1.866{\;}\textrm{mm}^3$. On average, the large apical preparation produced by ProTaper demonstrated smaller proportions of unchanged surface areas compared to the two other instruments in small canals. But in large canals like maxillary central incisor, the preparation of ProTaper instruments was not enough. ProTaper instrument was tended to increase more in canal volume as compared with the other two instruments but unchanged area was no significant difference. These results showed that three instruments had similar preparation ability and micro computed tomography in combination with the coated wall of root canal using silver paste is a nondestructive and valuable tool to study root canal geometry and changes after preparations in detail.

In order to improve the performance of electrodeposited diamond-nickel composite, surface modification of diamond particles was carried out using powder immersion reaction assisted coating (PIRAC). Titanium and chromium were selected as coating elements, which are known as carbide former. With respect to the powder elements, various phases were formed on diamond; metallic Ti and TiC for Ti powder, $Cr_3C_2$ for Cr powder, and TiC and $Cr_3C_2$ for Ti-Cr mixed powder. Surface modified diamond particle showed higher specific surface area, especially Ti coating induced considerable increase of specific surface area. The increase of specific surface area suggests increase of surface roughness, and that was confirmed by surface observation using FE-SEM. In addition, wear properties of diamond-nickel composite including surface modified diamonds were improved, and Ti coated diamond showed the highest performance. The wear property of diamond-nickel composite is dependent on adhesion strength between diamond particle and nickel layer. Therefore, surface modification of diamond particle by PIRAC increasing surface roughness is effective to improve the properties of diamond-nickel composite.

An experimental study is carried out to investigate the performance of the cutting tool regarding the insert wear, surface roughness, cutting forces, cutting power and material removal rate of three coated carbides GC2015 (TiCN-Al₂O₃-TiN), GC4215 (Al₂O₃-Ti(C,N)) and GC1015 (TiN) during the dry turning of AISI4140 steel. For this purpose, a Taguchi design (L₉) was adopted for the planning of the experiments, the effects of cutting parameters on the surface roughness (R_a), tangential cutting force (F_z), the cutting power (P_c) and the material removal rate (MRR) were studied using analysis of variance (ANOVA), the response surface methodology (RSM) was used for mathematical modeling, with which linear mathematical models were developed for forecasting of R_a, F_z, P_c and MRR as a function of cutting parameters (V_c, f, and a_p). Then, Multi-Objective Ant Lion Optimizer (MOALO) has been implemented for multi-objective optimization which allows manufacturers to enhance the production performances of the machined parts. Furthermore, in order to characterize and quantify the flank wear of the tested tools, some machining experiments were performed for 5 minutes of turning under a depth of 0.5 mm, a feed rate of 0.08 mm/rev, and a cutting speed of 350 m/min. The wear results led to a ratio (V_B-GC4215/V_B-GC2015) of 2.03 and (V_B-GC1015/V_B-GC2015) of 4.43, thus demonstrating the efficiency of the cutting insert GC2015. Moreover, SEM analysis shows the main wear mechanisms represented by abrasion, adhesion and chipping.

Cutting oil cools the chip and a tool as well as lubricates the chip-tool interface, the flank and machined surface. Rehbinder effect has been known as a phenomenon, the reduction of mechanical strength, when the metal is exposed to a polar organic environment or the surface of metal is coated with some polar organic substances. About the cause of Rehbinder effect there have been many different ideas by Rehbinder, Shaw, Barlow, Sakida and etc. In this report, the efect of polar organic substance( $C_{6}$ $H_{5}$C $H_{3}$+ $C_{6}$ $H_{4}$(C $H_{3}$)$_{2}$+ $C_{4}$ $H_{9}$OH+ $C_{6}$ $H_{12}$ $O_{2}$) (magic ink) upon the mechanism of chip formation on the orthogonal cutting of copper and mechanical properties of the work material are experimentally discussed with various rake angles. As expected no lubrication action could be noticed, but the shear angle increased and the cutting force and shear strain on the shear plane decreased, therefore the work material must be embrittled under polar organic substance.substance.

Metal cutting operations involve generation of heat due to friction between the tool and the pieces. This heat needs to be carried away otherwise it creates white spots. To reduce this abnormal heat cutting fluid is used. Cutting fluid also has an important role in the lubrication of the cutting edges of machine tools and the pieces they are shaping, and in sluicing away the resulting swarf. As a cutting fluid, water is a great conductor of heat but is not stable at high temperatures, so to improve stability an emulsion type mixed fluid with water and oil is often used. It is pumped over the cutting site of cutting machines as a state of atomized water droplet coated with oil by using jet. In this paper, to develop cutting fluid supplying nozzle to obtain ultra thin oil film for coating water droplet, a numerical analysis of three dimensional mixed fluid Jet through multi-stage nozzle was carried out by using a finite volume method. Jet flow characteristics such as nozzle exit velocity, development of mixing region, re-entrance and jet intensity were analyzed. Detailed mixing process of fluids such as air, water and oil in the nozzle were also investigated. It is easy to understand complex flow pattern in multi-stage nozzle. Important flow Information for advance design of cutting fluid supplying nozzle was drawn.

Graphite has excellent mechanical and physical properties. It is known to advanced materials and is used to materials for molds, thermal treatment of furnace, sinter of diamond and cemented carbide tool etc. SiC materials are coated on the surface and holes of graphite to protect particles emitted from porous graphite with 5%~20% porosity and make graphite hard surface. SiC materials have high durability and thermal stability. Thermal CVD method is widely used to manufacture SiC thin films but high cost of machine investment and production are required. SiC thin films manufactured by Si reaction liquid and vapore with carbon are effective because of low cost of machine and production. SiC thin films made by vapor silicon infiltration into porous graphite can be obtained for shorter time than liquid silicon. Si materials are evaporated to the graphite surface in about $10^{-2}$ torr and high temperature. Si materials are melted in $1410^{\circ}C$. Si vapor is infiltrated into the surface hole of porous graphite and $Si_xC_y$ compound is made. $Si_x$ component is proportional to the Si vapor concentration. Si diffusion coefficient is estimated from quadratic equation obtained by Fick's second law. The steady stae is assumed. Si concentration variation for the depth from graphite surface is fitted to quadratic equation. Diffusion coefficient of Si vapor is estimated at about $10^{-8}cm^2s^{-1}$.

Smartphone is integrated into the daily lives of all types of people not even young generation. A touch screen display is a primary input device of a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc. While there are many tough technologies in existence, resistive and capacitive are dominant and currently lead the touch screen panel industry. And a capacitive touch screen panel widely used in smart phones is coated with a material that stores electrical charges. In this study, we tried to manufacture gloves produced with electro-conducting leather as a tool to operate a touch panel screen. Therefore, electrically conductive materials, Polyaniline(PANI), Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), and Carbon nanotubes (CNT) were applied to the surface of leather to be used as a touching operator for capacitive touch screen panel. The leather samples were treated by simple painting method; firstly, they were painted with aqueous solution containing each of the electrically conductive materials and then dried. This cycle was repeated three times. Consequently, the treated leather samples showed electrical conductivity and reasonable working performance to the capacitive touch screen. And, PANI showed the best performance and highest electrical conductivity, and then PEDOT and, CNT in decreasing order. This is because the solubilities of PANI and PEDOT show higher than dispersibility of CNT. Thus, the concentration of conducting polymers was greater than that of CNT in the treating solutions.

The object of this study is to discuss the effect of cutting fluid on the mechanism of chip formation in orthogonal cutting. Rehbinder effect has been known as a phenomenon, the reduction of mechanical strength, when the metal is exposed in a polar organic environment or the surface of metal is coated with some polar organic substances. About the cause of Rehbinder effect there have been many different ideas by Rehbinder, Merchant, Shaw, Sakakida and etc. In this report, the effects of surface active medium (magic ink) upon the mechanism of chip formation on the orthogonal cutting of copper and the mechanical properties of the work material are experimentally discussed with constant rake angle. Under the condition of polar organic environment the experimental results are as follows; 1) The chip thickness becomes thinner and slip line pitch on the free surface of chip becomes smaller than that of dried cutting area. 2) The order of alternation of cutting ratio was changed. 3) The friction angle on the tool face is not affected by the depth of cut. 4) The cutting force and shear strain on the shear plane decrease remarkably, therefore the work material must be embrittled under polar organic environment.

Heat storage/release system in textile is a useful tool to increase energy efficiency and enhance comfortable microclimate of clothing. Phase change materials(PCM) are used in regulating storage and release properties of thermal energy. To investigate the temperature regulating ability of fabrics with PCM microcapsule(PCMMc), Nylon fabrics were coated with PCMMc via wet processing and they were characterized by SEM, DSC and infrared thermal analyzer. Also, water moisture transpiration, water penetration resistance, peel strength and washing durability of the fabrics were assessed. The water vapor permeation and water penetration resistance decreased with increasing PCMMc content. In DSC analysis, it can be seen that the microencapsulated fabric showed both exothermic md endothermic phenomena at specific temperature. Peel strength was decreased with increasing PCMMc content.

Ultrasonic machining (USM) has been considered a new, cutting-edge technology that presents no heating or electrochemical effects, with low surface damage and small residual stresses on brittle workpieces. However, nowadays, many researchers are paying careful attention to the disadvantages of USM, such as low productivity and tool wear. On the other hand, in this study, a high-performance rotary ultrasonic drilling (RUD) spindle is designed and assembled. In this system, the core technology is the design of an ultrasonic vibration horn for the spindle using finite element analysis (FEA). The maximum spindle speed of RUM is 9,600 rpm, and the highest harmonic displacement is $5.4{\mu}m$ noted at the frequency of 40 kHz. Through various drilling experiments on glass workpieces using a CVD diamond-coated drill, the cutting force and cracking of the hole entrance and exit side in the glass have been greatly reduced by this system.
