본 연구에서는 일방향 생분해성 유리섬유(BGF)와 친환경 생분해성 수지인 폴리락트산(PLA)을 이용하여 골절치료용 복합재료 고정판을 제작하고 체액 노출에 따른 고정판의 성능 변화를 확인하고자 $50.0^{\circ}C$ 온도조건으로 설정된 인산완충식염수(PBS)에 제작된 생분해성 고정판을 0~3주 동안 노출시켜 질량 변화를 측정하고 4점 굽힘 실험을 수행하였다. 굽힘 강성, 수분 흡수율, 그리고 질량 감소율과 같은 기계적 특성 변화를 파악하였으며 실험 결과로부터 노출 기간이 증가함에 따라 고정판을 구성하고 있는 생분해성 재료들의 손실로 인해 기계적 물성이 서서히 저하되는 경향을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

Background: Absorbable plates are widely used in open reduction and internal fixation surgeries for facial bone fractures. Absorbable plates are made of polyglycolic acid (PGA), polylactic acid (PLA), polydioxane (PDS), or various combinations of these polymers. The degradation patterns of absorbable plates made from different polymers and clinical courses of patients treated with such plates have not been fully identified. This study aimed to confirm the clinical courses of facial bone fracture patients using absorbable plates and compare the degradation patterns of the plates. Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted for 47 cases in 46 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation surgery using absorbable plates to repair facial bone fractures. All surgeries used either PLA/PGA composite-based or poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA)/hydroxyapatite (HA) composite-based absorbable plates and screws. Clinical courses were confirmed and comparisons were conducted based on direct observation. Results: There were no naturally occurring foreign body reactions. Post-traumatic inflammatory responses occurred in eight patients (nine cases), in which six recovered naturally with conservative treatment. The absorbable plates were removed from two patients. PLA/PGA compositebased absorbable plates degraded into fragments with non-uniform, sharp surfaces whereas PLLA/HA composite-based absorbable plates degraded into a soft powder. Conclusion: PLA/PGA composite-based and PLLA/HA composite-based absorbable plates showed no naturally occurring foreign body reactions and showed different degradation patterns. The absorbable plate used for facial bone fracture surgery needs to be selected in consideration of its degradation patterns.

The purpose of this study is to predict and understand the hydrodynamic forces and their nonlinear behaviors of fluid motion around the submerged plate oscillating near a free surface. To achieve this objective, we have developed a composite grid method for the solution of a radiation problem. The domain is divided into two different grids; one is a moving grid system and the other is a fixed grid system. The moving grid is employed for the body fitted coordinate system and moves with the body. This numerical method is applied to calculation of radiation forces generated by the submerged plate oscillating near a free surface. In order to investigate the characteristics of the radiation forces, the forced heaving tests have been performed with several amplitudes and different submergences near a free surface. These experimental results are compared with the numerical ones obtained by the present method and a linear potential theory. As a result, we can confirm the accuracy of the present method. Finally, the effect of nonlinear and viscous damping has been evaluated on the hydrodynamic forces acting on the submerged plate.

This study was designed to evaluate the anti cariogenic effect of F in primers, bonding agents, composite resins or glass ionomer cements in enamel. Twenty-five extracted teeth were selected and a cavity was prepared on either the buccal or the lingual surface of each tooth. After pumicing and etching, the samples were divided into 5 groups. In group A, the samples were primed, bonded and filled with ART bond and Brilliant Enamel (Coltene, Switzerland). Group B composed of Optibond and Herculited XRV (Kerr, USA), group C composed of Syntac and Tetric(Vivadent, Lichtenstein), and group D composed of Scotch-bond Multipurpose and Z 100 (3M, YSA). In group E, the samples were filled with glass ionomer cement (Fuji II LC, Japan), All surfaces except the 2mm beyond the cavosurface margin of the sample were protected, and samples were then put into an acid buffer for 3 days to develop the initial caries. The samples were then sectioned through the filling body into thin wafers and then examined with a polarizing microscope under water imbibition. The fluoride in primer, bonding agent, or composite filling material did not prevent the initial caries in the enamel area adjacent to the filling body whereas the fluoride in the glass ionomer did prevent the initial stage caries.

정적인 상태인 체외 환경(in vitro)에서의 세포배양 과정은 실제 생체 내 환경에서의 세포발달과정과는 많은 차이가 존재한다. 따라서, 체내 환경의 정밀한 모사를 위해서는, 기계적인 자극을 세포에 전달하여 줄 수 있는 동적 세포배양장치가 필수적이다. 하지만 기존의 동적 세포배양장치에는 튜브, 펌프, 모터 등의 비교적 복잡한 장치들을 필요로 하였으며, 전달되는 기계적 자극도 단순한 형태였다. 본 연구에서는 단순한 장치로 구동되는 동적 세포배양장치를 위하여 전기활성고분자(EAP) 구동기를 동력원으로 하는 소형 동적 세포배양장치를 설계하였다. 이 장치는 다양한 기계적 자극을 세포에 전달하는 것이 가능하다.

연구목적: 복합레진의 광중합 전후에 일어나는 색과 투명도 변화를 측정하고, CQ의 함량을 정량하였으며, 광중합 전후 복합 레진의 굴절률을 측정해 이들의 상관 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: Esthet-X, Filtek supreme, Gradia Direct, Clearfil Majesty, Beautifil II에 대하여 Colorimeter NF999를 이용하여 광중합 전후의 색과 투명도를 각각 측정하고, GC-MS를 이용해 각 복합레진의 CQ 함량을 측정하였으며, spectroscopic ellipsometer를 이용해 광중합 전후의 굴절률을 측정하였다. 결과: 투명도는 광중합 후에 증가하였고, body shade에서 opaque shade보다 투명도 차이가 크게 나타났다. 모든 레진에서 body shade의 CQ 함량이 opaque shade의 CQ 함량보다 높았다. 굴절률은 광중합 후에 모든 레진에서 증가하였으며, body shade와 opaque shade간에 굴절률의 변화는 유의한 차이가 있었다. 결론: 광중합 후에는 복합레진의 색과 투명도가 상당한 차이를 나타낸다. 따라서 임상에서 direct shade matching을 시행할 때는 중합된 레진을 사용하여야 한다.

In this study, computer applied engineering(CAE) techniques are fully used to efficiently conduct structural and dynamic analyses of a huge composite rotor blade using super-element. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) is used to predict aerodynamic loads of the rotating wind-turbine blade. Structural vibration analysis is conducted based on the non-linear finite element method for composite laminates and multi-body dynamic simulation tools. Various numerical results are presented for comparison and the structural dynamic behaviors of the rotor blade are investigated herein.

This paper examines degradation properties of alkali-activated alumino-silicate composite body by NAS solution exposed to high temperature. Activators include sodium hydroxides and sodium silicate solution. In the result of experiment, flexural and compressive strength of AAS base mortar exposed to high temperature ($400\~600^{\circ}C$) was higher than alumina cement base mortar. Particularly, In case of compressive strength, alumina cement base mortar was decreased by about $60\~70\%$. While, AAS base mortar exposed to high temperature ($400\~600^{\circ}C$) was higher than that curing by room temperature. The above results showed that AAS base inorganic binder has a good mechanical properties exposed to high temperature($400\~600$).

Structural surface becomes an antenna. The integration of antennas into structural body panels is a new high payoff technology. It emerged from the need to improve structural efficiency and antenna performance. In this paper, we developed new design concept for the structural surface which transmits and receives the electromagnetic signals, and it is termed Surface-Antenna-Structure (SAS). Design procedure was presented including structure design. material selection and design of antenna elements, which was processed according to the communication with KORSAT satellite at Ku-Band (12.25-12.75 GHz). The final demonstration article was 350$\times$200$\times$7.5mm flat antenna panel. Experimental results for antenna performances were in good agreements with design requirements. Also structural analysis was performed with SAS. estimating stress distributions under simply supported condition with Laminated Plate Theories and Wavier Solutions. The SAS concept can be extended to give a useful guide to manufacturers of structural body panels as well as antenna designers. promising innovative future communication technology.

This paper addresses the structural design of the front end of Siemens ER24 locomotive body. The steel structure of the frontend is replaced with composite. Optimization of the composite lay-up is performed using Genetic Algorithms. Initially an optimized single design for the entire structure is presented. Then a more refined optimum is developed by considering the separate optimization of 7 separate regions of the structure. Significant savings in the weight of the structure are achieved.
