It was verified that the effect of the distance between current input point and output point on direct current potential drop(DCPD) in the material with two-dimensional surface notch. If the distance between potential drop measuring points was fixed at a certain distance, the potential drop was decreased with increasing the distance between current input and output points. Hence it is the effect way to increase sensitivity in DCPD that the current input and output points should be located near the potential measuring points. DCPD was a useful method for surface crack sizing because the potential drop was proportional to the length of notch. When the current input and output points are located near the potential measuring points, even small length crack can be measured by DCPD technique.

DCPD technique was a useful method for surface crack sizing because the potential drop was proportional to the length of notch. In this paper, we suggest a statistical model to describe the data and want to find a significant variables to effect to potential drop. We use R program to analyze the data.

The effects of the position of potential probe on the measurements of the ground resistance in the fa11-of-potential method are described. The ground resistance is theoretically calculated by applying the 61.8[%] rule, and then the potential probe is located on the straight line between the grounding electrode to be measured and the current probe. However, sometimes the grounding electrode to be measured and the measuring potential and current probes in on-site test might not be arranged on the straight line with adequate distance because there are building, roadblock construction and other establishments. Provided that the grounding electrode to be measured and the measuring potential probes are out of position on the straight line, the measurement of the ground resistance classically falls into an error and the measured ground resistance should be corrected. In this work, measurements were focused on the grounding electrode system made by the ground rods of 2.4 m long. The measuring error was increased with increasing the angle which is made by the 3-points of the grounding electrode to be measured, the potential anti current probes, and it was a negative. That is, all of the measured ground resistances ware less than the true ground resistance.

Dental impression materials often become contaminated with patients' saliva and blood which creates the potential for cross-infection. It was the purpose of this study to investigate the effects of disinfection of three different rubber impression materials with four different disinfecting solutions. Polysulfide, vinyl polysiloxane and polyether impression materials were mixed according to the manufacturer's directions and samples were formed on a stainless steel model. On removal from the standard model, impressions were immersed in a disinfectant (acid-potentiated glutaraldehyde, phenollic compound, chlorine compound, iodophor) at room tempera tures for ten minutes. After disinfection, the distance between reference points(linear dimension) was measured using the non-contact automatic cordinate measuring projector(MZ-1, Nikon). Through statistical analyses on the data from this study,. the following conclusions were obtained. 1. Polysulfide, vinyl polysiloxane impressions were disinfected without dimensional change.(p>0.05) 2. Polyether impressions which were immersed in acid-potentiated glutaraldehyde were statistically different from control group.(p<0.05) But the amount of shrinkage(0.04%) would not be clinically significant. 3. By immersion of polysulfide, vinyl polysiloxane, polyether impressions in Banicide, Biocide, Multicide plus, sodium hypochlorite for ten minutes, clinically accurate impressions were obtained without dimensional change.

Purpose. The aim of this study was (1) to compare the reverse engineering technique with other existing measurement methods and (2) to analyze the effect of implant angulations and impression coping types on implant impression accuracy with reverse engineering technique. Materials and methods. Three different master models were fabricated and the distance between the two implant center points in parallel master model was measured with different three methods; digital caliper measurement (Group DC), optical measuring (Group OM), and reverse engineering technique (Group RE). The 90 experimental models were fabricated with three types of impression copings for the three different implant angulation and the angular and distance error rate were calculated. One-way ANOVA was used for comparison among the evaluation methods (P < .05). The error rates of experimental groups were analyzed by two-way ANOVA (P < .05). Results. While there was significant difference between Group DC and RE (P < .05), Group OM had no significant difference compared with other groups (P > .05). The standard deviations in reverse engineering were much lower than those of digital caliper and optical measurement. Hybrid groups had no significant difference from the pick-up groups in distance error rates (P > .05). Conclusion. The reverse engineering technique demonstrated its potential as an evaluation technique of 3D accuracy of impression techniques.
