  • Recognizing the importance of the multi-purpose management of natural deciduous forest, this study was carried out to implement the partial cutting for stand regulation to examine agroforestry practice as well as other concurrent forest resource production, and to investigate the changes in stand characteristics and understory vegetation in a silvopasture practiced natural deciduous stand in the Research Forest of Kangwon National University, Korea. Three different partial cutting intensities (68.1%, 48.6%, and control) were performed in the unmanaged natural deciduous stand in order to improve the growing condition, especially light condition, for introducing some commercial herbaceous plants on the forest floor to establish agroforestry and/or silvopastoral system. Dominated by Quercus varibilis Blume (50.5%) and Quercus dentata Thum. ex Murray (42.6%), eight tree species were composed of the study forest, including poles of Pinus desiflora Siebold & Zucc and sapling of Pinus Koraiensis Siebold & Zucc. The total of 87 (13 tree species, 12 shrub species, 58 herbaceous species, and 4 woody climbers) vascular plant species were observed in study site after partial cutting treatments, while that of before partial cutting was 53 species (14 tree species, 8 shrubs species, 30 herbaceous species, and 1 woody climbers). The proportion of life form spectra in plot B was Mi (28.4%)-Na (23.0%)-Ge (17.5%)-Ch (10.8%)-He (9.5%)-MM (6.7%)-Th (4.1%). No statistically significant differences were observed in changes of life form spectra from before to after partial cutting treatment and among partial cutting gradients in this study. Partial cutting and scratching for forage sowing made plants invade easily on the forest floor, and light partial cutting (LPC) plot (500 stems/ha) had much higher number of undersory species than those of heavy partial cutting (HPC) plot (310 stems/ha) and control plot (1,270 stems/ha).

  • A series of soil bin experiment was carried to investigate the effects of rotary blade shape, rotational direction of rotary blade, number of blade and soil cutting disk blade on the characteristics of partial tillage. Among the three types of rotary blades, rotary blade for cultivator was considered to be proper for partial tillage of direct seeder considering the torque requirements and ratio of soil breaking. There is no need to attach so many blades to the rotary shaft. Four rotary blades were enough for efficient partial tillage by rotary tiller. Though soil cutting disk blade assisted the better formation of seedbed furrow, attachment of the soil cutting disk blade increased torque requirements.

  • Clearcutting has been the dominant harvesting method in British Columbia (representing 95% of the total area harvested annually). However forest managers are increasingly recommending the use of alternative silvicultural systems and harvest methods, including various types of partial cutting, to meet ecological and social objectives. In this study we compared harvesting productivity and harvesting costs between treatments through detailed and shift level time studies in 300-350 year-old Interior Cedar-Hemlock stands in British Columbia, Canada. Recommendations for improving operational planning/layout and the implementation of clearcut and partial cutting silvicultural systems were made. Harvesting costs varied in the ground-based clearcut treatments from $10.95/$m^3$ - $15.96/$m^3$ and $16.09/$m^3$ - $16.93/$m^3$ in the group selection treatments. The ground-based group retention treatment had a cost of $13.39/$m^3$, while the cable clearcut had a cost of $15.70/$m^3$. An understanding of the traditional and alternative wood products that could be derived from the harvested timber was imperative to increasing the amount of merchantable volume and reducing the corresponding harvesting costs. Stand damage was greatest in the group selection treatments; however, mechanized felling showed an increase in stand damage over manual felling while grapple skidding showed a decrease in skidding damage compared to line skidding.

  • 최근 fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)를 적용한 near surface mounted (NSM) 보강공법은 열화된 콘크리트구조물에 대해 유지관리 측면에서 활발하게 적용되고 있다. 그러나, 기존 NSM 보강공법은 보강깊이가 부족한 콘크리트구조물에 대해서는 그 적용함에 있어 다소 제약이 있어왔으며 또한 비교적 얇게 보강된 특성으로 인하여 공용 시 부착특성에 대한 우려도 함께 부각되어 왔다. 이 문제점을 해결하고자, 본 연구에서는 스터럽 부분절단형 NSM 공법 (이하 SCNSM 공법)을 개발하여 노후화된 콘크리트구조물의 보강성능을 향상시키고자 한다. 본 공법은 기존 NSM 보강공법 적용 시 보강깊이 확보가 어려운 노후화된 콘크리트구조물의 성능향상에 적합한 공법이다. 본 연구에서는 새로 개발된 SCNSM 보강공법의 휨 성능을 검증하고자 휨 실험을 수행하였으며, 이를 기존 NSM 보강공법이 적용된 휨구조물과 비교분석하였다. 시험변수로는 보강길이 (순지간의 32%, 48%, 70%, 80%, 96%)를 적용하였으며, 하중-변위관계, 변형률관계 등이 분석되었다. 시험 결과, SCNSM 보강시험체는 기존 NSM 보강시험체와 유사한 극한하중 및 구조거동을 나타내었으며, 특히, 하부 스터럽 부분절단에 따른 구조적 취약성은 확인되지 않았다. 따라서, SCNSM 보강공법은 노후화된 콘크리트구조물의 내하력 증진을 위한 보강 시 피복두께가 확보됨의 유무에 따른 제약을 받지 않는 효과적인 보강공법이 될 수 있을 것으로 분석되었다.

  • Tool-chip adhesion impacts on cutting performance significantly, especially in finish cutting process. To promote cutting tools' anti-adhesion property, the concave micro-grooves texture (MGT) and convex volcano-like texture (VLT) were fabricated separately on lathe tools' rake faces by laser surface texturing (LST). Various orientations of MGT and different area densities (9% and 48%) and regions (partial and full) of VLT were considered in textured patterns designing. The following orthogonal cutting experiments, machining of aluminum alloy 5038, analyzed tools' performances including cutting force, cutting stability, chip shape, rake face adhesion and abrasion. It indicated that under dry finish cutting conditions, MGT contributed to cutting stability and low cutting forces, meanwhile friction and normal force reduced by around 15% and 10%, respectively with a weak correlation to the grooves' orientation. High density VLT tools, on the other hand, presented an obvious anti-adhesion property. A $5{\mu}m$ reduction of crater wear's depth can be observed on textured rake faces after long length cutting and textured rake faces presented half size of BUE regions comparing to the flat tool, however, once the texture morphologies were filled or worn, the anti-adhesion effect could be invalid. The bearing ratio curve was employed to analysis tool-chip contact and durability of textured surfaces contributing to a better understanding of anti-adhesion and enhanced durability of the textured tools.

  • Background: Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy is one of the major surgical techniques for small renal masses. However, it is difficult to manage cutting and suturing procedures within acceptable time periods. To overcome this difficulty, we applied a three-dimensional (3D) video system with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy, and evaluated its utility. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 31 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy between November 2009 and June 2014. A conventional two-dimensional (2D) video system was used in 20 patients, and a 3D video system in 11. Patient characteristics and video system type (2D or 3D) were recorded, and correlations with perioperative outcomes were analyzed. Results: Mean age of the patients was $55.8{\pm}12.4$, mean body mass index was $25.7{\pm}3.9kg/m^2$, mean tumor size was $2.0{\pm}0.8cm$, mean R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score was $6.9{\pm}1.9$, and clinical stage was T1a in all patients. There were no significant differences in operative time (p=0.348), pneumoperitoneum time (p=0.322), cutting time (p=0.493), estimated blood loss (p=0.335), and Clavien grade of >II complication rate (p=0.719) between the two groups. However, warm ischemic time was significantly shorter in the 3D group than the 2D group (16.1 min vs. 21.2min, p=0.021), which resulted from short suturing time (9.1 min vs. 15.2 min, p=0.008). No open conversion occurred in either group. Conclusions: A 3D video system allows the shortening of warm ischemic time in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and thus may be useful in improving the procedure.

  • Power signals resulting from spindle and feed motor, present a rich content of physical information, the appropriate analysis of which can lead to the clear identification of the nature of the tool wear. The partial least-squares regression (PLSR) method has been established as the tool wear analysis method for this purpose. Firstly, the results of the application of widely used techniques are given and their limitations of prior methods are delineated. Secondly, the application of PLSR is proposed. The singular value theory is used to noise reduction. According to grey relational degree analysis, sample variable is filtered as part sample variable and all sample variables as independent variables for modelling, and the tool wear is taken as dependent variable, thus PLSR model is built up through adapting to several experimental data of tool wear in different milling process. Finally, the prediction value of tool wear is compare with actual value, in order to test whether the model of the tool wear can adopt to new measuring data on the independent variable. In the new different cutting process, milling tool wear was predicted by the methods of PLSR and MLR (Multivariate Linear Regression) as well as BPNN (BP Neural Network) at the same time. Experimental results show that the methods can meet the needs of the engineering and PLSR is more suitable for monitoring tool wear.

  • Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate the practicality and the validity of different surface treatments of self-drilling orthodontic mini-implants (OMIs) by comparing bone cutting capacity and osseointegration. Methods: Self-drilling OMIs were surface-treated in three ways: Acid etched (Etched), resorbable blasting media (RBM), partially resorbabla balsting media (Hybrid). We compared the bone cutting capacity by measuring insertion depths into artificial bone (polyurethane foam). To compare osseointegration, OMIs were placed in the tibia of 25 rabbits and the removal torque value was measured at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after placement. The specimens were analyzed by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Results: The bone cutting capacity of the etched and hybrid group was lower than the machined (control) group, and was most inhibited in the RBM group (p < 0.05). At 4 weeks, the removal torque in the machined group was significantly decreased (p < 0.05), but was increased in the etched group (p < 0.05). In the hybrid group, the removal torque significantly increased at 2 weeks, and was the highest among all measured values at 8 weeks (p < 0.05). The infiltration of bone-like tissue surface was evaluated by SEM, and calcium and phosphorus were detected via EDS only in the hybrid group. Conclusions: Partial RBM surface treatment (hybrid type in this study) produced the most stable self-drilling OMIs, without a corresponding reduction in bone cutting capacity.

  • 용접변형은 용접 시 구조물 내에서의 불균일한 온도분포특성으로 인하여 필연적으로 유발되는 현상이다. 또한 용접변형이 발생된 용접구조물의 일부를 제거하는 과정에서 구조물내의 용접잔류응력과 강성의 연속적인 변화에 따라 추가적인 변형이 발생하여 변형의 재분포가 이루어진다. 특히, 이러한 현상은 선박의 제조과정 중 대형블럭을 옮기기 위해 설치된 러그의 절단과정에서 살펴볼 수 있다. 용접구조물의 부분 제거 시 발생되는 변형의 재분포는 절단공구의 파손 등의 문제를 야기하기도 한다. 본 논문은 실험을 통하여 용접구조물의 부분 제거에 따른 용접변형의 재분포가 어떠한 양상으로 발생되는지 연구하기 위한 것이다. 실험을 위해 필릿용접을 실시하였고, 용접된 리브의 일부를 제거함에 따라 발생되는 종굽힘과 각변형을 측정하여 비교 및 분석하였다.
