Passive fitting of meso-structure and super-structures is a predominant requirement for the longevity and clinical success of osseointegrated dental implants. However, precision and passive fitting has been unpredictable with conventional methods of casting as well as for corrective techniques. Alternative to conventional techniques, electro discharge machining(EDM) is an advanced method introduced to dental technology to improve the passive fitting of implant prosthesis. In this technique material is removed by melting and vaporization in electric sparks. Regarding the efficacy of EDM, the application of this technique induces severe surface morphological and elemental alterations due to the high temperatures developed during machining, which vary between $10,000{\sim}20,000^{\circ}C$. The aim of this study was to investigate the morphological and elemental alterations induced by EDM process of casting dental gold alloy and non-precious alloy used for the production of implant-supported prosthesis. A conventional clinical dental casting alloys were used for experimental specimens patterns, which were divided in three groups, high fineness gold alloy(Au 75%, HG group), low fineness gold alloy(Au 55%, LG group) and nonprecious metal alloy(Ni-Cr, NP group). The UCLA type plastic abutment patterns were invested with conventional investment material and were cast in a centrifugal casting machine. Castings were sandblasted with $50{\mu}m\;Al_2O_3$. One casting specimen of each group was polished by conventional finishing(HGCON, LGCON, NPCON) and one specimen of each group was subjected to EDM in a system using Cu electrodes, kerosene as dielectric fluid in 10 min for gold alloy and 20 min for Ni-Cr alloy(HGEDM. LGEDM, NOEDM). The surface morphology of all specimens was studied under an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). The quantitative results from EDS analysis are presented on the HGEDM and LGEDM specimens a significant increase in C and Cu concentrations was found after EDM finishing. The different result was documented for C on the NPEDM with a significant uptake of O after EDM finishing, whereas Al, Si showed a significant decrease in their concentrations. EDS analysis showed a serious uptake of C and Cu after the EDM procedure in the alloys studied. The C uptake after the EDM process is a common finding and it is attributed to the decomposition of the dielectric fluid in the plasma column, probably due to the development of extremely high temperatures. The Cu uptake is readily explained from the decomposition of Cu electrodes, something which is also a common finding after the EDM procedure. However, all the aforementioned mechanisms require further research. The clinical implication of these findings is related with the biological and corrosion resistance of surfaces prepared by the EDM process.

당뇨병쥐에 있어서 생체내 항산화방어계에 미치는 zinc투여의 영향을 관찰하기 위하여 비타민 E 투여군과 비교실험하였다. 혈당량은 당뇨군들이 대조군에 비해 현저히 증가되었으나 ZDM군이 DM과 EDM군에 비해 약간 감소되는 경향을 띠었다. 혈장 인슐린수준은 혈당량과 반대의 경향을 띠었다. 간조직중의 TBARS 축적량은 대조군에 비해 DM군은 2.3배 높았고 ZDM군은 DM에 비해 낮아졌으며, EDM군은 대조군과 비슷하였다. 간조직중의 환원형 glutathione(GSH) 함량은 대조군에 비해 DM군은 감소되었으나 ZDM과 EDM군은 DM군에 비해 각각 2.3, 1.7배씩 증가되었다. 산화형 GSH함량은 대조군에 비해 DM군이 증가되었고, DM군에 비해 ZDM군과 EDM군 모두 감소하였으며 GSH/GSSG비는 GSH비와 비슷한 경향이었다. 간조직중의 SOD, GSH-Px, GST활성은 모두 대조군에 비해 DM군은 유의적으로 감소되었으나 ZDM, EDM군은 DM군에 비해 증가되었다. 간장과 신장에서의 metallotruonein 함량은 모두 대조군에 비해 DM, EDM군은 증가하였고, ZDM군은 20배, 5.3배 각각 현저히 증가하였다.

GPS 측량은 Multi-path 오차가 발생하기 때문에 도심 지역이나 숲이 있는 항공사진에서는 지상기준점을 잡기위해 GPS측량이 어렵다. 본 논문은 소규모 지역에서 3차원 정사사진 구현을 위한 GPS와 EDM의 적용에 관한 연구이다. 삼각점에서 연구대상지역에 대한 기준점을 내린 다음 EDM으로 정밀삼각측량으로 지상기준점을 선정하였다. 그리고 항공사진을 정사투영사진으로 변환하기위해 획득된 지상기준점을 적용하였다. 그리고 연구대상지역에 대하여 항공정사사진을 이용한 3차원 모델링을 구현하여 향후 추진될 3차원 GIS 구축을 위한 항공사진의 활용방안에 대해서 연구 하였다. Multi-path 오차로 기인하는 GPS수신이 어려운 지점을 EDM을 이용하여 영상에서 균등히 분포된 지상기준점의 획득이 가능하였고 3차원 공간정보 자료구축에서 가장 기본이 되는 소규모 지역에서 항공사진의 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

The electrode wear in micro-EDM significantly deteriorates the machining accuracy. In this regard, electrode wear needs to be compensated in-process to improve the product quality. Therefore, there are substantial amount of research about electrode wear. In this study a control method for micro-EDM using discharge pulse counting is proposed. The method is based on the assumption that the removed workpiece volume is proportional to the number of discharge pulses, which is verified from experimental results analyzing geometrically machined volume according to various number of discharges. Especially, the method has an advantage that electrode wear does not need to be concerned. The proposed method is implemented to an actual micro-EDM system using high speed data acquisition board, simple counting algorithm with 3 axis motion system. As a result, it is demonstrated that the volume of hole machined by EDM drilling can be accurately estimated using the number of discharge pulses. In EDM milling process a micro groove without depth variation caused by electrode wear could be machined using the developed control method. Consequently, it is shown that machining accuracy in drilling and milling processes can be improved by using process control based on the number of discharge pulses.
