Theoretical backgrounds on the experimental methods of explosive welding, explosive forming and shock consolidation of powders are introduced. Explosive welding experiments of titanium (Ti) and stainless steel (SUS 304) plate were carried out. It was revealed that a series of waves of metal jet are generated in the contact surface between both materials; and that the optimal collision velocity and collision angle is about 2,100~2,800 m/s and $15{\sim}20^{\circ}$, respectively. Also, explosive forming experiments of Al plate were performed and compared to a conventional press forming method. The results confirmed that the shock-loaded Al plate has a larger curvature deformation than those made using conventional press forming. For shock consolidation of powders, the propagation behaviors of a detonation wave and underwater shock wave generated by explosion of an explosive are investigated by means of numerical calculation. The results revealed that the generation and convergence of reflected waves occur at the wall and center position of water column, and also the peak pressure of the converged reflected waves was 20 GPa which exceeds the detonation pressure. As results from the consolidation experiments of metal/ceramic powders ($Fe_{11.2}La_2O_3Co_{0.7}Si_{1.1}$), shock-consolidated $Fe_{11.2}La_2O_3Co_{0.7}Si_{1.1}$ bulk without cracks was successfully obtained by adapting the suggested water container and strong bonding between powder particles was confirmed through microscopic observations.

ISBP745 has new provisions about sea waybill, road, rail or inland waterway transport documents which ISBP681 did not have provisions about. The main revisions of ISBP745 which were not existent or different from ICC Opinion are as follows: First, where B/L is required when multimodal transport is used as a modes of transport, the revisions stipulates that it is subject to UCP600 article19. this differs from previous ICC Opinion. Second, when a credit requires a transport document to indicate the name, address and contact details of a delivery agent, for the place of final destination or port of discharge, the address need not be one that is located at the place of destination or port of discharge or within the same country as that of the place of destination or port of discharge. Third, in case there exist a number of shippers and a consignee, multiple transport documents are issued. This rule has a clear stipulation on this case. Transport industry regards the indication of "LCL/FCL" or "CFS/CY" common in this case as that requiring multiple transport documents. However, ISBP745 does not regard it the case as that requiring multiple transport documents. This may cause some confusion in examination of documents. Forth, when partial shipment is allowed, and more than one set of original transport documents are presented as part of a single presentation made under one covering schedule and incorporate different dates of shipment, the earliest of these dates is to be used of the calculation of an presentation period.

In this study, the structural analysis is performed on the method of shallow block and deep cement mixing pile, and then their characteristics and associated behaviors were analyzed. In the case of continuous beam analysis, the predicted settlement was very small, and shear force and bending stress are somewhat overestimated. The frame method is similar to numerical analysis in the internal force shallow block and long pile, but because the settlement of pile is underestimated, the additional calculation using the reaction of the long pile is necessary. For soil arching method and piled raft foundation method, the excessive axial force of long pile was predicted because the load sharing of pile is very large compared to the other methods. In the behavior of the shallow block and deep pile method, the settlement of shallow block and contact pressure are much in the center than the edge. In the estimating method considering the interaction between improved material and ground, the load sharing of the soil-cement pile ranges from 20% to 45%, and the stress ratio is 2.0~5.0 less than piled DCM. The maximum member forces at the boundary conditions of pile head are similar, but in fixed head the axial force and vertical displacement are different in accordance with pile arrangement.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of autogenous tooth bone as a graft material for regeneration of bone in vertical bony defects of the minipigs. Material and Methods: Six minipigs were used in this study. Four molars were extracted in the right mandibular dentition and sent to the Korea Tooth Bank for fabrication of autogenous tooth bone. Ten days later, each extraction site was implanted with MS Implant Narrow Ridge $3.0{\times}10mm$ fixture (Osstem, Seoul, Korea) after standardized 2mm-sized artificial vertical bony defect formation. Pineappleshaped Root-On type autogenous tooth bones were applied to the vertical defects around the neck area of the posterior three fixtures and the fore-most one was not applied with autogenous bone as a control group. Each minipig was sacrificed at 4, 8, 12 weeks after fixture installation and examined radiologically and histologically. Histological evaluation was done under light microscope with Villanueva osteochrome bone staining with semi-quantitative histomorphometric study. Percentage of new bone over total area (NBF) and bone to implant contact (BIC) ratio were evaluated using digital software for area calculation. Result: NBF were $48.15{\pm}18.02%$, $45.50{\pm}28.37%$, and $77.13{\pm}15.30%$ in 4, 8, and 12 weeks, respectively for experimental groups. The control group showed $37.00{\pm}11.53%$, $32.25{\pm}26.99%$, and $1.33{\pm}2.31%$ in 4,8,12 weeks, respectively. BIC ratio were $53.08{\pm}19.82%$, $45.00{\pm}28.37%$, and $75.13{\pm}16.55%$ in 4,8,12 weeks, respectively. Those for the control groups were $38.33{\pm}6.43%$, $33.50{\pm}29.51%$, and $1.33{\pm}2.31%$ in 4, 8, 12 weeks, respectively. Conclusion: Autogenous tooth bone showed higher score than control group in NBF and BIC in all the data encompassing 4,8,12 weeks specimens, but statistically significant only 12 weeks data in both NBF and BIC.

A grounding system in a large-scale apartment complex consists of a TT grounding system when viewed in each building unit, but the characteristics of TN grounding system appears when viewed in the total ground system function. Therefore, this study examined the characteristics of a grounding system in a large-scale apartment complex using design draft, field measurements and PSCAD/EMTDC modeling. This paper proposes an algorithm for fault analysis depending on the grounding system structure in large-scale apartment complexes considering the connection of the underground culvert as well as a design algorithm for each grounding system considering the contact voltage and step voltage. The simulation results based on the proposed modeling and algorithm confirmed that it is useful for analyzing the characteristics of a grounding system in a large-scale apartment complex.

We calculated tetragonal-$HfO_2$/Si superstructures using density functional theory. When a and b-axes of cubic-$HfO_2$ were increased to be matched with those of Si for epitaxy contact, c-axis was decreased by 2%. Eight models of interface layers were produced by choosing different terminating layers of tetragonal-$HfO_2$ and Si substrate at the interface. It was found that tetragonal-$HfO_2$ $(004)_{1/4}$/Si $(004)_{3/4}$ superstructure was the most favorable and tetragonal-$HfO_2$ (004)$_{1/4}$/Si (002) superstructure was the most unfavorable. In tetragonal-$HfO_2$ $(004)_{1/4}$/Si (002) superstructure, there were two oxygen vacancies in tetragonal-$HfO_2$ as two oxygen atoms were moved to Si substrate located at the interface.

The purpose of this experiment was to study the effect of implantation of the dense hydroxyapatite (HA) granules$(Apaceram^{(R)})$ in the fresh extraction sockets on the residual ridge resorption in normal and induced diabetic rabbits. Sixty-four white rabbits, weighing 3.0kg, were utilized in this study and they were divided into four group : group 1-sixteen normal rabbits without filling HA granules, group 2-sixteen normal rabbits with filling HA granules, group 3-sixteen diabetic rabbits without filling HA granules, group 4-sixteen diabetic rabbits with filling HA granules. HA granules were filled immediately after extraction in the extraction sockets of the mandibular left 1st, 2nd, and 3rd molar in group 2 and 4, and no HA granules were filled in group 1 and 3. The calculation of residual ridge resoption was done at 4th week, 8th week, 12th week, and 16th week after surgery, and histologic examination was performed to study healing process at 2nd week, 4th week, 8th week, and 16th week after surgery. The results were as follows : 1. The amount of residual ridge resorption was largest in group 3, and smallest in group 2 in every interval. There was no statistically significant difference between group 1 and 4. 2. In all groups, the amount of residual ridge resorption was high until 4th week after surgery, but the rate of residual ridge resolution slowly decreased after 4th week 3. There was more active healing process in group 1 and 2 than in group 2 and 4. 4. According to filling of HA granules, there was no difference in the amount of new bone formation, but direct contact could be observed between newly formed bone and HA granules in group 2 and 4. 5. Group 1 and 3 showed marked bone resorption and adipose marrow from 8th-16th week after surgery, but group 2 and 4 did not show maeked bone resolution, and showed fibrous tissue and a little adipose tissue among trabeculae from 8th week.

When measuring live cable faults and their location based on reflectometry, a coupler is placed between the cable and the test system. This coupler prevents damage to the test circuits by indirectly measuring the live voltage of the cable using reflectometry. It also provides a coupling path that allows the transmission and receive signal to pass into the cable. In this study, we design and construct a contact coupler to locate faults in both dead and live cables using reflectometry. The proposed coupler is of the inductive coupling type and is constructed after the calculation of the signal transmission loss by simulation. The performance of the developed coupler is tested by measuring the transmission loss and frequency flatness. The results showed that the transmission signal loss is less than -1.98dB in the frequency bandwidth above 1 Mhz. The reflectometry system was designed based on sequence time domain reflectometry (STDR) and spread spectrum time domain reflectometry (SSTDR) in order to apply it to the detection of faults and their location in live cables and tests on live cables were performed. The test results showed that the proposed coupler can be used in a reflectometry system for live cable fault detection.

Electrical resistivity survey have been widely conducted at diverse scales, from a few centimeters for laboratory tests to kilometers for field tests. It measures electrical resistance through relationship of electric potential difference and current between two electrodes penetrated on the surface of medium, and eventually quantifies electrical resistivity known as inherent properties of the medium. In field or full-scale test, it assumes the electrodes as equivalent half-sphere electrodes that have a same surface area with different electrodes for ease of calculation because the contact area between electrode and medium is small and sufficient distance between two electrodes. However, small-scale laboratory test is significantly affected by the electrode geometries (penetrated depth, height, radius of electrode and distance between electrodes), which change the equipotential surface and electric current flow. Indeed, the electrode geometries may eventually cause a difference of electrical resistivity value. This study reviews the theoretical electrical resistance derived with various electrode geometries (half-sphere, cylinder, cylindrical with half-spherical tip, cylindrical with conical tip) and verifies the developed numerical module by comparing results with the theoretical electrical resistance. The distributions of electrical resistance around electrodes and among electrodes are analyzed. In addition, it is discussed how the electrical characteristic of cylindrical electrode with conical tip widely used in field test has effect on the electric current flow.

Type A carrier structures that support blocks or equipment gradually deform over time with load changes, reducing the area in contact with the block and changing the load pattern from distributed to concentrated during construction work in the shipyard. This phenomenon has the potential to misrepresent actual service loads. In particular, A carriers are often used by small manufacturers, who often do not have specialized engineering capabilities, necessitating the development of a method for easy calculation of carrier safe working load. This study proposes a quick evaluation method for the long-term safe working load of Type A carriers, to predict the plastic deformation and safety issues resulting from changes in load distribution. Based on the results of finite element analysis (beam and shell modeling) of the centralized load, beam-theory was modified to propose a method for determining the distributed load conditions of the A-carrier. In beam modeling, the theoretical value was multiplied by a correction factor of 0.73 for concentrated loads and 0.69 for distributed loads to obtain a safe working load. For shell modeling, a correction factor of 0.75 can be used for concentrated loads and 0.69 for distributed loads. This study can serve as a basis for improving the safety of shipbuilding, enabling quick and effective decisions for determining safe working loads in actual working environments.
