본 연구에서는 심부시추공 처분을 위한 밀봉시스템으로서 Gibb's Group에 의해 제안된 화강암 용융 및 재결정화에 의한 시추공 밀봉 방안에 대해 KURT 화강암을 대상으로 실현 가능성을 확인하였다. 화강암 용융 실험은 첨가제를 이용한 상압 용융시험과 물의 기화에 의한 수증기 고압용융시험 2가지로 수행되었다. 상압 용융시험 결과, KURT 화강암 분말에 NaOH를 첨가하여도 기본 융점보다 낮은 $1,000^{\circ}C$에서 부분용융이 시작되었으며, 냉각된 용융물에서 침상결정의 형성을 확인하였다. 수증기 고압시험은 물의 첨가량에 따라 수증기압을 달리하며 최대 400 bar의 수증기압까지 용융 시험이 진행되었다. KURT 화강암은 낮은 수증기압에도 $1,000^{\circ}C$에서 부분 용융이 시작되었으나, 물이 많이 첨가된 높은 수증기압에서 화강암의 부분 용융은 보이지 않았다. 따라서 소량의 수증기가 있는 고압상태가 화강암의 용융에 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 한편, 고온고압의 수증기는 내부식성의 반응기 벽을 부식시켜, 고온의 수증기에 의한 처분용기의 부식 문제가 발생되었다.

Objectives: This study investigated the nanoleakage of root canal obturations using calcium silicate-based sealer according to different drying methods. Materials and Methods: Fifty-two extracted mandibular premolars with a single root canal and straight root were selected for this study. After canal preparation with a nickel-titanium rotary file system, the specimens were randomly divided into 4 groups according to canal drying methods (1: complete drying, 2: blot drying/distilled water, 3: blot drying/NaOCl, 4: aspiration only). The root canals were obturated using a single-cone filling technique with a calcium silicate-based sealer. Nanoleakage was evaluated using a nanoflow device after 24 hours, 1 week, and 1 month. Data were collected twice per second at the nanoscale and measured in nanoliters per second. Data were statistically analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U-tests (p < 0.05). Results: The mean flow rate measured after 24 hours showed the highest value among the time periods in all groups. However, the difference in the flow rate between 1 week and 1 month was not significant. The mean flow rate of the complete drying group was the highest at all time points. After 1 month, the mean flow rate in the blot drying group and the aspiration group was not significantly different. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, the canal drying method had a significant effect on leakage and sealing ability in root canal obturations using a calcium silicate-based sealer. Thus, a proper drying procedure is critical in endodontic treatment.

We present a simple and low-cost method to fabricate poly(methyl-methacrylate) (PMMA) nanochannels with various shapes by combining the standard optical lithography with a PMMA layer transfer and collapse technique. We utilized PMMA membrane reflowing/collapsing phenomena into microchannels to fabricate nanochannels at both corners of arbitrarily-shaped microchannels. This allows nanochannels with various shapes such as curved nanochannels as well as straight nanochannels to be easily fabricated since the shape of the microchannel determines the shape of the nanochannels. This nanochannel fabrication method is simple, flexible, and low-cost since the standard optical lithography with low-resolution optical masks can be used to fabricate nanoscale channels as small as 100 nm wide with various shapes. Also, the sealing of nanochannels can be naturally achieved while the nanochannels are formed through the polymer layer transfer and collapse.

The term 'antimicrobial' packaging encompasses any packaging technique(s) used to control microbial growth in the food product. These include packaging materials and edible films and coatings that contain antimicrobial agents, and also techniques that modify the atmosphere within the package. In recent years, antimicrobial packaging has attracted much attention from the food industry because of the increase in consumer demand for minimally processed, preservative-free products. Reflecting this demand, the preservative agents must be applied to packaging in such a way that only low levels of preservatives come into contact with the food. The film or coating technique is considered to be more effective, although more complicated to apply. New antimicrobial packaging materials are being developed continually. Many of them exploit natural agents, to control common food-borne microorganisms. Current trends suggest that in due course, packaging will generally incorporate antimicrobial agents and the sealing systems will continue to improve. The focus of packaging in the past has been on the appearance, size and integrity of the package. A greater emphasis on safety features associated with the addition of antimicrobial agents is perhaps the next area for development in packaging technology.

There is a many kinds with nondestructive testing such as RT and UT representatively. Referred before two testing methods there is a limit which is spatial such as nuclear pipe, small vessel, sealing up vessel. So a new technique needs to overcome the limit which is spatial. shearography will be able to overcome the limit which is spatial. This paper introducing shearography which was known as non-contact full-field testing method and It is an interferometric technique for measurement of surface deformation such as displacement or displacement gradient. Also, a research about internal defect of the flange welding zone was accomplished. About variation with method pressurized with the Gaseous Nitrogen. Phase map where is various were measured according to changing a sheared direction, size of crack and loaded pressure. Consequently, crack quantitatively to be detected qualitatively was measured by using shearography.

The purpose of these study was to compare the sealing ability of a injection-molded thermoplasticized gutta-percha and silver amalgam as retroseal material in vitro. Sixty two upper and lower extracted human teeth with single root were randomly selected and instrumented in a conventional method with H-file. After instrumentation the root canal was obturated with gutta-percha by lateral condensation technique with AH26 and an apicoectomy was performed by beveling the root tip 45 angle. In the experimental group 1 and 2, a class I preparation was made and filled with silver amalgam or gutta-percha and in the experimental group 3 an apicoectomy only was performed. All specimens were immersed in black Indian ink, decalcified and cleared. The depth of dye penetration into the canals were evaluated by califer. The results were as follows ; 1. The experimental group 1 displayed the smallest mean dye penetration as 0.45mm. 2. The experimental group 3 displayed the greatest mean dye penetration as 0.65mm. 3. There was the difference in dye penetration between each group, but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).

For carbon neutrality, direct-injection hydrogen engines are attracting attention as a future power source. It is essential to estimate the transient injection rate of hydrogen for the optimization of hydrogen injection in direct injection engines. However, conventional injection rate measurement techniques for liquid fuels based on the injection-induced fuel pressure change in a test section are difficult to be applied to gaseous fuels due to the compressibility of the gas and the sealing issue of the components. In this study, a momentum flux measurement technique is introduced to obtain the transient injection rate of gaseous fuels using a force sensor. The injection rate calculation models associated with the momentum flux measurement technique are presented first. Then, the volumetric injection rates are estimated based on the momentum flux data and the calculation models and compared with those measured by a volumetric flow rate meter. The results showed that the momentum flux measurement can detect the injection start and end timings and the transient and steady regimes of the fuel injection. However, the estimated volumetric injection rates showed a large difference from the measured injection rates. An alternative method is suggested that corrects the estimated injection rate results based on the measured mean volumetric flow rates.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of customized master cone on apical sealing in various apical size of prepared root canals, that is MAF(Master Apical File) and to know at which apical size the apical leakage is to be significantly reduced using customized master cone. 120 extracted single rooted premolars were divided into four groups according to their apical size(MAF), #30, 40, 50 and 60. And then, each group was subdivided into three in accordance with three obturation methods, lateral condensation with standardized master cone, lateral condensation with chloroform-dipped customized master cone, and continuous wave of obturation technique. Resorcinol-formaldehyde resin was used for the microleakage test of this study. Teeth were sectioned horizontally at 1.5mm(Level 1), 2.5mm(Level 2), and 3.5mm(Level 3) from the anatomical root apex using low speed microtome. All sections were examined under $\times$40 magnification with a stereomicroscope, photographed, and then scanned. With the scanned images, resin-infiltrated area presenting the microleakage was calculated using SigmaScan/Image, and the ratio of leakage to the total root canal area of each group was analyzed statistically(one way ANOVA). The results were as follows ; 1. In groups of MAF #30, there was no significant difference of mean leakage ratio among three obturation methods at all three levels. 2. In groups of MAF #40, the group using lateral condensation with customized master cone had the low-est mean leakage ratio at all three levels, but there was no significant difference among three obturation techniques. 3. In groups of MAF #50, the mean leakage ratio of the group using lateral condensation with standard master cone was the highest among those of three obturation techniques at level 1, and this difference was statistically significant(p<0.05). 4 In groups of MAF #60, the groups using lateral condensation with standard master cone had also the highest mean leakage ratio at all levels, but there was no significant difference at level 1 and 2. At level 3, the leakage of the group using lateral condensation with standard master cone was significantly higher than that of the group using continuous wave of obturation(p<0.05). The results of this study suggested that the obturation method using customized master cone or the continuous wave of obturation is more effective for apical sealing than that using standardized master cone when MAF is larger than ＃50.

Elastomeric O-ring seals are widely used in static and dynamic applications. A compressed and highly pressurized O-ring seal inserted under laterally one-sided constrained condition has been analyzed experimentally and numerically. The deformed shape and extrusion length of the O-ring under high pressure has been measured by the computed tomography. Through the comparison of experimental and FE results, the numerical analysis technique has been verified. Using verified FE method, the contact stress profiles at sealing surfaces have been investigated and their relevance to the 0-ring performance evaluated based on stress-related and displacement-related parameters. It has been found that the contact stress profiles and deformation behaviors of the seal are affected by friction coefficient, gap clearance, and pressure considerably.

Hot hydrostatic extruder was developed. The main objective of the development is forming fine wire and tube. On account of effectiveness and high performance, the extruder was designed to have double action. Therefore the main cylinder and mandrel can be driven independently. To cope with severe condition of high temperature and pressure, wire-wound container equipped with heater was used. Sealing technique also is important in this process, so seal ring was made of super-elastic metal. Another key for successful forming is choice of proper pressure medium. Fine wire and tube produced by the extruder can be used in semiconductor industry and medicine.
