Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength between various commercial zirconia coping and veneering ceramic, and to observe the failure mode. Methods: For each zirconia block (iJAM Emerald, LUXEN Smile block, ICE Zirkon transluzent), 10 rectangular specimens were layered with Cercon ceram kiss, IPS e.max ceram, ICE Zirkon ceramic according to recommended by the manufacturer. The shear bond strength tests of the veneering porcelain to zirconia were carried out until fracture by a universal testing machine. After the shear bond tests, failure modes were characterized visually, under a stereomicroscope, such as adhesive, cohesive, or mixed. Data were analyzed with One-way ANOVA followed by Scheffe's tests. Results: The shear bond strength ($mean{\pm}SD$) of zirconia-veneer ceramic were JC group $13.9{\pm}3.6MPa$; JE group $17.7{\pm}2.4MPa$; JI group $15.1{\pm}2.5MPa$; LC group $9.5{\pm}1.5MPa$; LE group $16.2{\pm}2.3MPa$; LI group $12.6{\pm}0.8MPa$; ZC group $16.0{\pm}2.3MPa$; ZE group $18.5{\pm}3.4MPa$; and ZI group $15.3{\pm}3.2MPa$. The One-way ANOVA showed a significant difference between groups (p<0.05). The failure mode in most experimental groups was mixed failure, except for the LC group, which showed adhesive failure, and JE group, LE group and ZE group showed cohesive failure. Conclusion: For IPS e.max ceram, the shear bond strength value was highest for all kinds of zirconia blocks. For ICE Zirkon transluzent, the shear bond strength value was highest for all kinds of veneering ceramics. Most of experimental group interfaces revealed mixed failure mode.

The need for insect and mite resistant turfgrass cultivars arose because of problems associated with pesticide use. Representative cultivars and genotypes of 18 warm-season turfgrass [Zoysia japonica Steud., Z. japonica${\times}$Z. metrella hybrids, Z. japonica${\times}$Z. tenuifotia hybrids, Z. matrella (L.) Merr., Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers., C. dactylon${\times}$C. transvallensis hybrids, Paspalum notatum Flugge., P. vaginatum Swartz., Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze, Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro.) and Buchloe dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm.] and 20 cool-season turfgrasses [Poa pratensis L., Festuca arundinacea Schreb., F. rubra L., F. rubra var. commutata Gaud., F. ovina var. duriuscula L. Koch. Agrostis tenuis Sibth., A. palustris Huds., and Latium perenne L.] were evaluated for host resistance to feeding by the Spodoptera depravata (Butler) in the laboratory. Two experiments were set up in the laboratory using 8.5cm diameter${\times}$4.0cm deep plastic petri dishes as larvae feeding chambers. In experiment 1, one neonate larvae were place on the grass in each dish and the dishes were arranged with 5 replicates each within an environmental chamber maintained at $25^{\circ}C$ and 15h light: 9h dark Larval survival and larval weights at 7d and 14d, pupal weights, and days to pupation were compared among turfgrasses. In Experiment 2, 4cm sections of all grasses were oriented equidistant from each other in a pattern resembling the spokes of a wheel. Five one neonate larvae were introduced to the center of each dish. Dishes were immediately placed in an environmental chamber held at $25^{\circ}C$, 15h light: 9h dark Larvae were allowed to feed for 24h. Damage was rated from 0(no damage) to 9(completely consumed) were made for eachturfgrass. Resistance as antibiosis (high mortality, slowed growth, and least preference) was identified in Z. japonica${\times}$Z. tenuifolia hybirids ‘Emerald’, Z. japonica${\times}$Z. metrella hybirds ‘Miyako’ and Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro.). Cool-season turfgrasses tested were susceptible to feeding by Spodoptera depravata (Butler).

Waste glass has been increased with the development of industry. The utilization of waste glass for concrete can cause the concrete to be cracked and to be weakened due to an expansion by alkali-silica reaction(ASR). In this study, ASR expansion and properties of strength were analyzed in terms of waste glass color(amber, emerald-green), industrial by-products(ground granulated blast-furnace slag, fly ash), and the content of industrial by-products for reducing ASR expansion caused by the waste glass. The possibility of using glass ground as pozzolanic properties was also analyzed. From the result of this study, the pessimum size of waste glass was 2.5∼1.2 mm regardless of waste glass color. And the smaller than 2.5∼1.2 mm waste glass is, the more decreasing expansion of ASR is. Also, the combination of waste glass with industrial by-products have an effect on reducing the expansion and strength loss caused by ASR between the alkali in the cement paste and the silica in the waste glass, and the glass ground of less than 0.075 mm is applicable as a pozzolanic material.

Recently, as industrialization is rapidly growing and the standard of life is rising, the quantities of waste glasses have been hastily increased and most of them are not recycled but abandoned. It cause some problems such as the waste of natural resources and environmental pollution. Therefore, this study was conducted basic experimental research to analyze the possibilities of recycling of waste glasses(crushed waste glasses outbreaking from our country such as amber, emerald-green, flint and mixed) as fine aggregates for concrete. Test results of fresh concrete, slump and compacting factors decrease because grain shape is angular and air content increase due to involving small size particles so much in waste glasses. Also compressive, tensile and flexural strengths decrease with increase of the content of waste glasses. In conclusion, the content of waste glasses below 30% is reasonable and usage of pertinent admixture is necessary to obtain workability and air content.

Purpose: This study examined the effect of wettability of gypsum materials and rubber impression material on the marginal fitness of zirconia copings. Methods: Three commercially available gypsum materials(Fugirock EP, Snow Rock, Tuff Rock) and three zirconia blocks(iJAM Emerald, LUXEN Smile block, ICE Zirkon transluzent) were studied. The zirconia copings were fabricated by using dental CAD/CAM system. Contact angles on the impression materials were measured with contact angle measuring device. Silicone replica method was used to measure the marginal fitness and cutting was performed on the bucco-lingual and mesio-distal sides. It were observed with a stereomicroscope at °ø40 magnification. The data were statistically analyzed with One-way ANOVA. Results: Mean values of contact angles were $58.3{\pm}0.7^{\circ}$ for Tuff Rock, $77.5{\pm}0.5^{\circ}$ for Fugirock EP and $87.8{\pm}0.5^{\circ}$ for Snow Rock and the difference between them was statistically significant(p<0.05). The smallest values of marginal fitness for the JF groups were $30.7{\pm}3.0{\mu}m$ for bucco-lingual direction, $29.3{\pm}3.0{\mu}m$ for mesio-distal direction. One-way ANOVA showed statistically significant difference between groups for marginal fitness(p<0.05). Conclusion: Tuff rock gypsum material had superior wettability to others. The mean marginal fitness of the Tuff rock gypsum material group were significantly better than other groups. Thus they can be also expected to show clinically satisfactory marginal fitness.

The purpose of this study was to categorize the decorative characteristics of the Rococo Age, which displays the most glamorous and elegant decorative beauty, in architecture, interior decorations, paintings, and patterns, and to analyze these characteristics and graft them onto art masks in a modern way. Piece I is a mixed media piece that based its motif on the ceilings and pulpits of the German Vis Pilgrimage Church, which is representative architecture of the Rococo Age. It was glamorously produced using gold and cubic zirconia. Piece II is also a mixed media piece that borrowed its motif from the exterior and gazebo of the Sanssouci Palace in Germany, another representative piece of architecture from the Rococo Age, and it was produced to clearly display the image of the Sanssouci Palace, using emerald and ivory. Piece III applies the furniture trends of the Rococo Age. Curves in S and C shapes, which can often be found in Chinese furniture, along with dark backgrounds, common in portrait paintings, were applied to give a sense of weight and dignity. Piece IV is an application of the fabric patterns of the Rococo Age. Continuous patterns of flowers and greenery stems were drawn on the mask to recreate the fabric patterns of the age. Piece V used the painting 'Swing' of the Rococo Age as its inspiration. Lace and ribbon decorations were used to emphasize feminine beauty and express the loveliness of the woman that appears in the painting. Piece VI borrows from the painting 'Madame de Pompadour' of the Rococo Age and the clothing worn by Pompadour. This piece grafted colors and themes through the painting and expressed a fusion of the dresses of Pompadour and lace that is clearly displayed in the architecture, paintings, clothing, interior decorations, and patterns of the Rococo Age, along with the rocaille (asymmetrically shaped decorations that resemble clams), flowers, leaves, stems, and Chinoiserie styles. These motifs clearly display the decorative characteristics of the age and these were grafted them onto art masks, confirming that it is possible to create new designs.

Purpose: This study investigated the accuracy of laser-scanned models and 3-dimensional(3D) rendered cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) compared to the gold standard (plaster casts) for linear measurements on dental arches. Materials and Methods: CBCT scans and plaster models from 30 patients were retrieved. Plaster models were scanned by an Emerald laser scanner (Planmeca, Helsinki, Finland). Sixteen different measurements, encompassing the mesiodistal width of teeth and both arches' length and width, were calculated using various landmarks. Linear measurements were made on laser-scanned models using Autodesk Meshmixer software v. 3.0 (Autodesk, Mill Valley, CA, USA), on 3D-rendered CBCT models using OnDemand 3D v. 1.0 (Cybermed, Seoul, Korea) and on plaster casts by a digital caliper. Descriptive statistics, the paired t-test, and intra- and inter-class correlation coefficients were used to analyze the data. Results: There were statistically significant differences between some measurements on plaster casts and laser-scanned or 3D-rendered CBCT models (P<0.05). Molar mesiodistal width and mandibular anterior arch width deviated significantly different from the gold standard in both methods. The largest mean differences of laser-scanned and 3D-rendered CBCT models compared to the gold standard were 0.12±0.23 mm and 0.42±0.53 mm, respectively. Most of the mean differences were not clinically significant. The intra- and inter-class correlation results were acceptable for all measurements(>0.830) and between observers(>0.801). Conclusion: The 3D-rendered CBCT images and laser-scanned models were useful and accurate alternatives to conventional plaster models. They could be used for clinical purposes in orthodontics and prostheses.

This study aimed to determine effects of the use of water-retention additive, hydrophilic polymer, for extensive green roofs on growth of Juniperus chinensis var. sargentii and Euonymus fortunei 'Emerald and Gold' for woody plants, and Carex kobomugi and Carex pumila for herbaceous plants. Five different contents of hydrophilic polymer including 0% (Control), 1.0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, and 10% (polymer: medium (w/w), dry weight basis) were added to each of the container filed with a 100 kg of growth medium. Ten of plants were transplanted in each of square container ($1m(L){\times}1m(W){\times}0.3m$ (H)) built on the roof platforms in randomized complete block design in the $20^{th}$ of May, 2013. In results, excessively high volumetric soil water content, about 97-98%, was found in the substrate under elevated hydrophilic polymer concentration of at least 2.5%, during the entire growing period. The moisture content of the substrate containing 1.0% of hydrophilic polymer was higher about 20% in the range between 70% and 80%, compared tho that of Control substrate in the range between 50% and 60%, for 27 days after transplanting prior to abundant rainfall, indicating that the application of hydrophilic polymer to the extensive green roof substrate is effective to eliminate drought condition by retaining water in the substrate. Euonymus fortunei 'Emerald and Gold' and Carex kobomugi resulting in higher plant growth with 2.5% than those of the other treatment plants. Juniperus chinensis var. sargentii was observed the highest growth under 1.0% hydrophilic polymer treatement, and Carex pumila was founded the best growth with Control respectively. Plants that grown in both the 1.0% and 2.5% hydrophilic polymer survived all, while the plants that grown in the 5.0% and 10% hydrophilic polymer died after 3 months. These results suggest that advantage of the addition of hydrophilic polymer may be greater in drought-tolerant plants, but the mixture proportion of hydrophilic polymer should be determined according to the different features of the plant species being grown.

수열법은 밀폐용기중에서 10$0^{\circ}C$이상의 가열, 가압된 수용액이 반응에 관여하는 것으로써, 수정, CaCO3, AlPO4, GaPO4 등과 같은 단결정의 육성 뿐만 아니라 균일분산계로부터 균일한 결정성의 미립자 합성에도 폭넓게 이용되고 있다. 세라믹분말의 합성에 있어서, 이 방법은 특히 형상, 입자크기의 제어가 용이할 뿐만 아니라 고상법, 졸-겔법, 공침법에서와 같은 열처리, 분쇄과정이 필요없기 때문에 고순도의 초미립자를 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있다. 근년 미국, 일본에서는 수열법을 이용한 유전, 압전체 등 세라믹분말의 일부가 공업적인 규모로 대량 생산되고 있다. 그러나 이에 대한 국내 기술은 아직 초기단계에 이르고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구실에서는 수열법에 의한 단결정 육성 (예; 자수정, CaCO3, AlPO4, GaPO4, KTP, Emerald 등), 박막제조 (예; GaP, PbTiO3, BaTiO3 등), 정제 (고령토, 장석, 도석 등), 원석처리 (진주, 인공 emerald, 비취 등) 그리고 각종 세라믹분말의 합성 등과 같은 다양한 기반기술의 축적과 동시에 공업화에 대응한 수열장치를 위하여 반응용기의 대형화, 엄밀한 밀폐방식, 실용적인 수열조건 등을 개발해 오고 있다. 본 발표에서는 현재까지의 연구개발 내용 중에서 결정성 미립자에 관련한 세라믹분말의 합성에 대한 일부의 결과들을 보고한다. 일반적으로 수열장치는 전기로, 반응용기, 온도 및 압력제어계 등을 기본으로 하고 있으며 시판용의 대부분이 교반기가 부착된 수직형 (vertical type)이다. 이와 같은 방식에 있어서는 엄밀한 밀폐가 곤란, 반응온도의 한계성 (25$0^{\circ}C$ 이하), 증진율의 한계성 (소량생산) 등과 같은 점이 있기 때문에 본 연구실에서는 개폐식 전기로내에 엄밀한 밀폐가 가능한 수평식(horizontal type)의 반응용기를 채택한 뒤 이를 회전 또는 시이소(seesaw)식으로 움직일 수 있도록 하여 연속공정화, 온도구배의 자율조절 그리고 보다 저온에서도 인위적인 이온의 확산을 효율적으로 유도할 수 있도록 하였다. 이와 같은 방식은 기존의 방식과 비교하여 반응용기 내에 응집현상과 미반응물이 존재하지 않으며 또한 단분산으로 결정성 미립자를 대량적으로 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있었다. 다음은 이상과 같이 본 연구실에서 자체 개발한 수열장치를 이용하여 PbTiO3, (Pb,La)TiO3Mn, BaTiO3, ZnSiO4:Mn, CaWO4 등과 같은 세라믹분말에 대한 합성 실험의 결과이다. 압전성, 초전성이 우수한 PbTiO3 및 (Pb,La)TiO3:Mn 분말의 수열합성은 PbO, TiO2, La2O3 등의 분말을 출발원료로 하여 합성도도 25$0^{\circ}C$부근의 알카리성 용액중에서 결정성 PbTiO3 및 (Pb,La)TiO3:Mn 미립자를 단상으로 얻었으며 입자의 형상 및 크기는 합성온도와 수열용매의 종류에 의존하였다. 유전체로서 폭넓게 응용되고 있는 BaTiO3 분말은 Ba(OH)2.8H2O, TiO2와 같은 최적의 출발원료를 선택함으로써 15$0^{\circ}C$ 부근의 저온영역에서도 용이하게 합성할 수 있었다. 특히 본 연구에서는 수용성인 Ba(OH)2.8H2O를 사용함으로써 host-guest적인 반응을 유도시키는데 있어 물의 가장 실용적이고 효과적인 수열용매임도 알았다. ZnSiO4:Mn, CaWO4, MgWO4와 같은 형광체 분말은 공업적으로 고상반응 또는 습식법에 의해 얻어지고 있으나 이들 방법에 있어서는 분쇄공정으로 인한 형광특성의 저하와 같은 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수열법을 이용하여 이들 화합물의 합성을 시도하였으며 그 결과 합성온도 30$0^{\circ}C$ 부근의 알칼리성 용액중에서 수열적으로 얻어짐을 알았다. 여기서의 합성분말을 이용하여 실제 조명램프로 제조한 결과 녹색, 청색 발광용 형광체로서 우수한 형광특성을 나타내었다. 천연에서 소량 산출되고 있는 고가의 (Li,Al)MnO2(OH)2:Co 분말은 도자기의 전사지용 청색안료로써 이용되고 있다. 본 연구실에서는 LiOH.H2O, Al(OH)3, MnO2 등의 분말을 출발원료로 하고 24$0^{\circ}C$ 온도 부근 그리고 물을 수열용매로 하여 천연산에 필적하는 (Li,Al)MnO2(OH)2:Co 분말을 인공적으로 합성하였다.
