Purpose: This study introduces a standardized 2-plane approach using 8 landmarks to assess alveolar bone levels in mice using micro-computed tomography. Materials and Methods: Bone level differences were described as distance from the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to alveolar bone crest (ABC) and as percentages of vertical bone height and vertical bone loss, comparing mice infected with Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg) to controls. Eight measurements were obtained per tooth: 2 in the sagittal plane (mesial and distal) and 6 in the coronal plane (mesiobuccal, middle-buccal, distobuccal, mesiolingual, middle-lingual, and distolingual). Results: Significant differences in the CEJ-to-ABC distance between Pg-infected mice and controls were found in the coronal plane (middle-lingual, mesiobuccal, and distolingual for the first molar; and mesiobuccal, middle-buccal, and distolingual for the second molar). In the sagittal plane, the distal measurement of the second molar was different. The middle-buccal, mesiobuccal, and distolingual sites of the first and second molars showed vertical bone loss relative to controls; the second molar middle-lingual site was also different. In the sagittal plane, the mesial sites of the first and second molars and the distal site of the second molar showed loss. Significantly different vertical bone height percentages were found for the mesial and distal sites of the second molar (sagittal plane) and the middle-lingual and distolingual sites of the first molar(coronal plane). Conclusion: A reliable, standardized technique for linear periodontal assessments in mice is described. Alveolar bone loss occurred mostly on the lingual surface of the coronal plane, which is often omitted in studies.

GaN 기반 반도체는 넓은 bandgap을 가지고 있어 가시광부터 자외선까지 다양한 광전소자에 유용하게 사용된다. 광전소자중 발광다이오드의 경우 대부분 사파이어 기판위에 성장된다. 하지만 사파이어와 GaN의 격자 불일치 및 열팽창 계수의 차이로 인해 고품질의 GaN를 성장하기가 어렵다. 특히 열팽창 계수의 차이는 GaN 성장 공정이 고온에서 이루어지기 때문에 성장후 상온으로 온도가 떨어질 때 웨이퍼의 bowing을 발생시키고 동시에 dislocation이나 crack과 같은 결함이 생성되 GaN 성장막의 품질을 떨어트린다. 웨이퍼의 크기가 커지면 커질수록 웨이퍼 bowing은 커져 이에 대한 연구는 중요하다. 본 논문에서 2인치 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 GaN의 bow특성을 알아보기 위해 먼저 simulation을 하였고 실제로 성장된 GaN 웨이퍼와 비교를 하였다. c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 c-plane GaN의 bow특성을 알아보기 위해 성장 온도 $1,100^{\circ}C$에서 GaN두께를 1 ${\mu}m$에서 10 ${\mu}m$까지 1 ${\mu}m$씩 변화시켜 가며 simulation을 하였다. GaN두께가 1 ${\mu}m$일때는 bow가 11 ${\mu}m$, 6 ${\mu}m$ 일때는 54.7 ${\mu}m$, 10 ${\mu}m$ 일때는 108 ${\mu}m$를 얻어 GaN두께가 1 ${\mu}m$씩 증가할 때 마다 bow가 약 10 ${\mu}m$씩 증가하였다. 성장온도에 대한 영향을 알아보기 위해 $700^{\circ}C$에서 $1,200^{\circ}C$까지 $100^{\circ}C$씩 증가시켜며 bow특성 simulation을 하였다. 6 ${\mu}m$성장된 GaN의 경우 성장온도가 $100^{\circ}C$ 씩 증가할 때 bow는 약 6 ${\mu}m$ 증가하였다. 실제 성장된 c-plane GaN웨이퍼와 비교하기 위해 GaN을 각각 3 ${\mu}m$와 6 ${\mu}m$를 성장시켰고 high resolution x-ray diffraction장비를 사용하여 bow를 측정한 결과 각각 28 ${\mu}m$와 61 ${\mu}m$ 였고 simulation결과는 각각 33 ${\mu}m$와 65.5 ${\mu}m$를 얻어 비슷한 결과를 보였다. c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 c-plane GaN는 방향에 무관하게 동일한 bow 특성을 가지는 반해 r-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 a-plane GaN는 방향에 따라 다른 bow특성을 보인다. a-plane GaN 이방향성적인 bow 특성을 알아보기 위해 simulation을 하였다. $1,100^{\circ}C$에서 a-plane GaN을 성장할 때 두께가 1 ${\mu}m$ 증가할 때마다 bow가 c축 방향으로는 21.7 ${\mu}m$씩 증가하였고 m축 방향으로는 11.8 ${\mu}m$ 씩 증가하여 매우 큰 이방향성적인 bow 특성을 보였다. 실제 r-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 a-plane GaN의 bow를 측정하였고 simulation 결과와 비교해 보았다.

A simple simulative test was developed to evaluate stamping formability in plane strain stretching mode. The stamping formability was evaluated by limit punch height(LPH) in plane strain punch stretching test(PSST) compared to limit dome height(LDH) in hemispherical punch stretching test. PSST shows stable plane strain condition and good reproducibility with minimum scatter. Moreover LPH-value in PSST well ranks the stamping formability of various material and correlates with press performance.

We set up a four-wave holographic interferometer using a symmetric dual-beam illumination which is to measure in-plane and out-of-plane displacement simultaneously. In order to acquire the displacement phase map we applied the phase-shifting method and removed the noise of the phase map with least-squares fitting. In this approach the access to information relative to both the difference and sum of phases existing in the two arms of four-wave holographic interferometer was allowed. As a result, in-plane and out-of-plane displacement was measured to the accuracy of λ/40 and λ/100, respectively at λ=632.8nm

The paper describes the quantitative determination of out-of-plane displacement from result of Shearogrpahy, which can measure the first-order partial derivative of out-of-plane displacement directly. However, the differential sensitivity of Shearography is related to the amount of shearing, which is manually adjustable in optical interferometer and affects the quantitative determination. The relationship between those is inspected by comparing ESPI with Shearography. From the result, the amount of shearing plays a modulation factor of out-of-plane displacement and small amount of shearing gives good agreement with out-of-plane displacement.

In-plane piezoelectric charge constant of Electro-Active paper (EAPap) was investigated based on direct and converse piezoelectric effects. EAPap samples were made with cellulose film with very thin gold electrode coated on both sides of the film. To characterize direct piezoelectricity of EAPap, induced charge was measured when mechanical stress was applied to EAPap. In-plane piezoelectric charge constant was extracted from the relation between induced charge and applied in-plane normal stress. To investigate converse piezoelectricity, induced in-plane strain was measured when electric field was applied to EAPap. Piezoelectric charge constant was also extracted from the relation of induced in-plane strain and applied electric field. Piezoelectric charge constants obtained from direct and converse piezoelectricity are 31 pC/N and 178 x 10-12m/V for 45 degree sample, respectively. Measured piezoelectric charge constants of EAPap provide promising potential as a piezoelectric material.

In-plane ESPI(Electronic Speckle Patten Interferometry)was devised to measure in~plane defamation and rotation of a specimen with laser in this study. The conventional measuring methods of surface deformations such as the strain gauge have many demerits because they are contact and point-to-point measuring ones. But that ESPI is noncontact, nondestructive and whole field measuring method can overcome previous disadvantages. We used ESPI which is sensitive to in-plane displacement for measuring in-plane deformations of a disk. First of all, the system calibration was done due to an in-plane rotation before getting deformations of a disk. Finally we showed good agreement between theexperiment results and those of the FEA(Finit Element Analysis).

An analytical model has been developed to predict the elastic properties of a filled resin reinforced by chopped fibers, a three-phase composite such as a filled sheet molding compound(SMC). In the model the matrix material and fillers form an effective matrix. The effective matrix is then considered to be reinforced with long fibers lying in the sheet plane but randomly oriented in the plane. Expressions for the resulting transversely isotropic composite properties are explicitly presented. Using this model, the Young's and shear moduli are calculated for the SMC sample with filler weight fraction of 35% and fiber content of 30%. The same properties are also determined experimentally. The agreement between the calculated and measured elastic moduli is found to be very good for the in-plane properties. However, the out-of-plane properties show a large difference because the effect of voids is not taken into account in the model.

We review a series of crack problems arising in the general deformations of a linearly elastic solid (Mode-I, Mode-II and Mode-III crack) and, perhaps more significantly, when the contribution of surface effects are taken into account. The surface mechanics are incorporated using the continuum based surface/interface model of Gurtin and Murdoch. We show that the deformations of an elastic solid containing a single crack can be decoupled into in-plane (Mode-I and Mode-II crack) and anti-plane (Mode-III crack) parts, even when the surface mechanics is introduced. In particular, it is shown that, in contrast to classical fracture mechanics (where surface effects are neglected), the incorporation of surface elasticity leads to the more accurate description of a finite stress at the crack tip. In addition, the corresponding stress fields exhibit strong dependency on the size of crack.

In orthodontic field, the study on gnathostatic model is very important to the diagnosis and analysis of malocclusion. The purpose of this study is to observe that relation of orbital plane and upper canine in Koreans. We selected 230 cases with normal occlusion, 124 male and 106 female cases aged from 12 years to 25 years, to prepare 230 gnathostatic models, and measured the distance from midpoint of mesio-distal distance of upper canine to orbital plane in gnathostatic model. The results obtained were as follows: 1) The mean value of the distance from upper canine to orbital plane showed no significant change with age. 2) The mean value of the distance from the upper canine to orbital plane was -3.11mm in male and -3.84mm in female. 3) The orbital plane passed through the upper canine in normal occlusion of Koreans.
