  • 섬유보강 콘크리트의 균열 후 인장 거동을 예측하기 위해서는 균열면에 걸쳐 있는 섬유의 개수를 산정하는 섬유분포계수를 합리적으로 예측하는 것이 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 분석하기 위해, 콘크리트 압축강도, 단면 크기, 섬유 종류 및 섬유혼입률 등을 변수로 강섬유보강 콘크리트 공시체를 제작하였으며, 제작한 공시체들을 타설 방향에 수직인 방향으로 절단한 후, 절단된 원형 단면에서의 섬유 개수로부터 섬유분포계수를 측정하였다. 측정 결과, 섬유가 타설면에 평행하게 분포할 확률이 증가함에 따라 실제 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수가 일반적으로 알려진 0.5보다 작은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 단위 면적 당 섬유 개수가 증가할수록 섬유분포계수가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 논문에서는 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 합리적으로 예측하기 위해 섬유가 분포할 수 있는 각을 기하학적으로 분석하고, 이로부터 상세 모델과 단순화한 식을 유도하였다. 제안된 모델과 실험에서 측정된 섬유분포계수를 비교한 결과, 제안된 모델이 실제 원형단면에서의 섬유분포계수를 잘 예측하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구로부터 확보된 실험 결과 및 제안 모델은 향후 원형단면을 지닌 섬유보강 콘크리트 기둥 부재 등의 구조적 거동 연구에 매우 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

  • PURPOSE. This study aims to clinically compare the fitness and trueness of zirconia crowns fabricated by different combinations of open CAD-CAM systems. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Total of 40 patients were enrolled in this study, and 9 different zirconia crowns were prepared per patient. Each crown was made through the cross-application of 3 different design software (EZIS VR, 3Shape Dental System, Exocad) with 3 different processing devices (Aegis HM, Trione Z, Motion 2). The marginal gap, absolute marginal discrepancy, internal gap(axial, line angle, occlusal) by a silicone replica technique were measured to compare the fit of the crown. The scanned inner and outer surfaces of the crowns were compared to CAD data using 3D metrology software to evaluate trueness. RESULTS. There were significant differences in the marginal gap, absolute marginal discrepancy, axial and line angle internal gap among the groups (P < .05) in the comparison of fit. There was no statistically significant difference among the groups in terms of occlusal internal gap. The trueness ranged from 36.19 to 43.78 ㎛ but there was no statistically significant difference within the groups (P > .05). CONCLUSION. All 9 groups showed clinically acceptable level of marginal gaps ranging from 74.26 to 112.20 ㎛ in terms of fit comparison. In the comparison of trueness, no significant difference within each group was spotted. Within the limitation of this study, open CAD-CAM systems used in this study can be assembled properly to fabricate zirconia crown.

  • The analytical solutions for the free vibration of cross-ply laminated composite cyllindrical shell with axial stiffeners(stringers) are presented usint the energy method. The stiffeners are taken to be smeared over the surface of shell with the smeared stffener theory. The effect of the parameters such as the stacking sequences, the shell thichness, the shell radius-to stringer depth ratio, the stringer depth-to width ratio, the shell length-to radius ratio are studied. By comparison with the previously published experimental results and the analytical results for the stiffened isotropic cylindrical shell and the unstiffened orthotropic composite laminated cylindrical shell, it is shown that natural frequencies can be determined with adequate accuracy.

  • The local heat transfer and pressure drop of developed turbulent flows in the smooth convergent/divergent channels with rectangular and square cross-sectional areas along the axial distance have been investigated experimentally. The measurement was conducted within the range of Reynolds numbers from 15,000 to 89,000. The channel hydraulic diameter ratios of 0.67 and 1.49 in the rectangular channel with 2 inclined walls and the ratios 0.75 and 1.33 in the square channel with 4 inclined walls are considered. The comparison showed that among the four channels the square divergent channel has the highest thermal performance at the identical mass flow rate, at the identical pumping power, and at the static pressure drop.

  • In order to study the cleansing effect of air-driven sonic system, the author prepared root canals on 48 extracted human permanent single rooted teeth using hand instrumentation and aforementioned method, half and half of the cases. In order for comparison of the degree of remnant debris and cleanliness, the cross sections at 3mm and 7mm levels from the apex were stereomicroscopically observed and scored in accordance with predetermined degree. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Air-driven sonic system was more effective in cleansing root canal than hand instrumentation at apical 3mm level. (p < 0.01) 2. Air-driven sonic system was more effective in cleansing root canal than hand instrumentation at apical 7mm level. (p < 0.01) 3. In hand instrumentation, Helisonic file was more effective in cleansing root canal than Rispisonic file. (p < 0.05) In air-driven sonic system, on the other hand, there were no significant difference between the two files.

  • In this paper, we propose new adaptive search range motion estimation methods where the search ranges are constrained by the probabilities of motion vector differences and a search point sampling technique is applied to the constrained search ranges. Our new methods are based on our previous work, in which the search ranges were analytically determined by the probabilities. Since the proposed adaptive search range motion estimation methods effectively restrict the search ranges instead of search point sampling patterns, they provide a very flexible and hardware-friendly approach in motion estimation. The proposed methods were evaluated and tested with JM16.2 of the H.264/AVC video coding standard. Experiment results exhibit that with negligible degradation in PSNR, the proposed methods considerably reduce the computational complexity in comparison with the conventional methods. In particular, the combined method provides performance similar to that of the hybrid unsymmetrical-cross multi-hexagon-grid search method and outstanding merits in hardware implementation.

  • This paper proposes thermometer-code latches having five and six transistors for unidirectional and bidirectional thermometer-code shift-registers, respectively. The proposed latches omit the set and reset transistors by changing from two supply voltage nodes to the set and reset signals in the cross-coupled inverter. They set or reset the data by changing the supply voltage to ground in either of two inverters. They reduce the number of transistors to five and six compared with the conventional thermometer-code latches having six and eight transistors, respectively. The proposed thermometer-code latches were simulated using a 65 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process. For comparison, the proposed and conventional latches are adapted to the 64 bit thermometer-code shift-registers. The proposed unidirectional and bidirectional shift-registers occupy 140 ㎛2 and 197 ㎛2, respectively. Their consumption powers are 4.6 ㎼ and 5.3 ㎼ at a 100 MHz clock frequency with the supply voltage of 1.2 V. They decrease the areas by 16% and 13% compared with the conventional thermometer-code shift-register.

  • Mortality risk is a significant threat to individual life, and quantifying the risk is necessary for making a national population plan and is a traditionally fundamental task in the insurance and annuity businesses. Like other advanced countries, the sustainability of life pensions and the management of longevity risks are becoming important in Asian countries entering the era of aging society. In this study, mortality and pension value sustainability trends are compared and analyzed based on national population and mortality data, focusing on four Asian countries from 1990 to 2017. The result of analyzing the robustness and accuracy of generalized linear/nonlinear models reveals that the Cairns-Blake-Dowd model, the nonparametric Renshaw-Haberman model, and the Plat model show low stability. The Currie, CBD M5, M7, and M8 models have high stability against data periods. The M7 and M8 models demonstrate high accuracy. The longevity risk is found to be high in the order of Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, and Japan, which is in general inversely related to the population size.

  • Unknown parameters of a nonlinear system were estimated using a signal compression method. The estimated parameters were natural frequency and tile damping coefficient. This study applied a algorithm using tile comparison of the cross-correlation coefficient between the impulse response from a model and it from the signal compression method. The impulse through linear element included in a nonlinear system could be obtained by the signal compression method. The unknown parameters of the linear element could be estimated by comparing the Bode plots of system's impulse response with them of model's response. In this study, a LSCM(LabVIEW-Signal-Compression-Method) was developed to identify a nonlinear system. The LSCM consisted of National Instrument's (NI) Data Acquisition (DAQ) Board (Model PCI-1200), a monitoring program using LabVIEW software package, DAQ Signal Accessory Board, and 2nd-order electric circuits. The designed electric circuits consisted of resistors, inductors and capacitors. To evaluate the performance of the LSCM, the response from model with known parameters is compared with the response from the real system using the monitoring program. The results from simulation of experiment showed that the developed LSCM provided a reliable estimation performance.
