Hypoid gears are widely used in rear drive and 4WD vehicle axles. Investigation of their sensitivity to deflections is one of the most important aspects of their design and optimization procedures. The deflection test is performed in the actual gear mounting using completely processed gear. This test should cover the full operating range of gear loads from no load to peak load. Under peak load the contact pattern should extend to the tooth boundaries without showing a concentration of the contact pattern at any point on the tooth surface. Transmission error is tested on an axle assembly triaxial real car load condition.

The author measured the degree of development and the eruption pattern of first permanent molars with orthopantomography in 553 Korean children(male; 302, female; 251) from 4 to 9 years old. The orthopantomographs were obtained from dept. of pedodontics, college of dentistry, Seoul National University. The results of the studies were as follows: 1. Upper first permanent molars were erupted with distal inclination of about 30 degrees in the early stage and they gradually moved in the mesial direction by bodily movement of the tooth to be in contact with the disto-proximal surface of primary secondary molars in the late stage. 2. Lower first permanent molars were erupted with mesial inclination in the early stage and moved mesially by tipping movement of the tooth to be in contact with the disto proximal surface of the second primary molars in the late stage. 3. The eruptive forces were considered to be main etiologic factors of space closure after the premature loss of primary molars.

Hertzian contact tests were used to investigate the evolution of fracturedamage in the coating layer as functions of contact load and coating thickness by studying crack patterns in porcelain on glass-infiltrated alumina bilayer system conceived to simulate the crown structure of a tooth. Cone cracks initiated at the coating top surface without delamination at interface and crack propagation to substrate. Preferentially the cracks made multi-cracks at the coating top surface rather than proceeding to interface. The cracks were highly stabilized with wide ranges between the loads to initiate first cracking and to cause final failure im-plying damage-tolerant capability. Finite element modelling was used to evaluate the stress distribution. Maximum tensile stress were responsible for the cracking at the coating layer and had a profound influence on the crack pattern and fracture damage in the layered structure materials.

The authors have proposed methods (lead crowning and profile modification) for modifying the geometry of spur gears and investigated the contact pattern as well as the transmission errors to recommend the appropriate amount of modification. Based on the investigation, dynamic load of the modified spur gear drive has been calculated, which is helpful to predict the life of the designed gear drive. Computer programs for simulation of meshing, contact and dynamics of the modified spur gears have been developed. The developed theory is illustrated with numerical examples.

This study was performed to investigate the factors related to tooth wear. For this study, 78 patients with temporomandibular disorders and 76 dental students without any signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders were selected as the patients group and as the normal group, respectively. Preferred chewing side, Angle's classification, lateral guidance pattern, head and shoulder posture were observed clinically. Electromyographic activity of anterior temporalis and masseter muscle were recorded with $BioEMG^{(R)}$ and occlusal status were recorded with $T-Scan^{(R)}$. Wear facet area of each tooth was measured from working model of upper arch corresponding to the occlusal status from T-Scan. Wear facet area were measured with planimeter in $mm^2$. Total area were divided into incisal, canine, posterior tooth area. Anterior wearfacet area was incisor area plus canine area, and unilateral area was anterior area plus posterior area. The data collected were analyzed by SAS statistical program and the results of this study were as follows: 1. There was no significant difference between the two groups in total werafacet area, and male subjects showed tendency to have larger area in the normal group but female subjects showed tendency vice versa. 2. There was no significant difference related to preferred chewing side and Angle's classification, however some difference was observed by lateral guidance pattern. Anterior wear facet area in subjects of canine guidance was the largest in the three subgroups. 3. Subjects with head tilting to right side had larger posterior and total area, and subjects with higher shoulder in right side had larger canine and anterior area than any other subgrous. 4. Electromyographic activity of masseter muscle was more correlated with wear facet area than anterior temporalis muscle, and tooth contact number and force were significantly correlated with wear facet area, but the most important factor affecting tooth attrition was age.

The purpose of his study was to investigate the variations of occlusal contact pattern according to chewing side preference. The author selected 59 dental students (mean age 23.6 years) who had no signs and symptoms of masticatory disorders and divided into two groups, that is, bilateral chewing side group and unilateral chewing side group, respectively. For recording, T-Scan System(Teksan Inc., USA) was used and the recorded occlusal contacts were examined as to the number of occlusal contacts, points distribution in dental arch, time sequence and force snapshot. The obtained results were as follow s: 1. Total number of occlusal contacts were more in unilateral chewing side group and there were significant difference in number between right and left side or between chewing and less-chewing side in all two groups. 2. All items related to time sequence showed no statistical significant difference between two groups in any case. 3. Unilateral chewing side group had more occlusal contact force than bilateral group, especially in chewing side. From the above finding, the author considered that there was occlusal unbalance in unilateral chewing side group. 4. Chewing side preference would possibly have more effects on the occurrence rate of anterior tooth contact that the rate of prolonged their contact but proved.

This study was accomplished to analyse and compare the occlusal contact patterns during eccentric mandibular movements in adult with normal occlusion. 50 subjects(male 27, female 23), who had natural occlusion and no symptom of temporomandibular disorder, were selected. Teeth contact patterns during mandibular eccentric movements were recorded and the distribution of tooth contacts in maximum intercuspation analysed by T-scan system. And then, tooth contact numbers recored by T-scan and silicone bite registration at centric occlusion were analysed and compared. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Antero-posteriorly, the qualitative center of occlusal contacts in centric occlusion were in the first molar areas, but there was a slight deviation in left-right directions. Thus, distribution of occlusal contacts were not bilaterally symmetric. 2. During the mandibular movements from centric occlusal position to right lateral and left lateral directions, the frequency that maxillary canine joined in lateral guidance was relatively high, but pure canine protected occlusion or pure group function occlusion had small frequency. 3. During mandibular protrusive movement, one or more maxillary central incisors frequently joined in protrusive guidance. 4. During mandibular eccentric movements, working and balancing side premature contact was observered in relatively high frequency. 5. In centric occlusal position, the numbers of occlusal contacts recorded on T-scan were relatively smaller than on silicone bite registration.

For the manual transmission gearbox used in the automotive industry, gear meshing transmission error is the main source of noise known as gear whine, and radiated gear whine noise plays an important role in the whole gearbox. Therefore, in order to keep competitive in the automotive market, the NVH performance of transmission gearboxes is increasingly important for automotive manufacturers when a new product is developed. In this paper, in order to achieve an optimized tooth contact pattern, gear tooth modification is applied to make up for the deformation of the teeth owing to load. A five-speed MT gearbox is firstly modeled in RomaxDesign software and the prediction of transmission error under the loaded torques is studied and compared. From the simulation, the transmission error and maximum contact stress are also simulated and compared after tooth modification of the loaded torques. Finally, the simulation results are used to optimize the whole gearbox design and the final gearbox prototype is testified to obtain NVH performance in a semi-anechoic room.

The shear behavior of soil-concrete interface is mainly affected by the surface roughness of the two contact surfaces. The present research emphasizes on investigating the effect of roughness of soil-concrete interface on the interface shear behavior in two-layered laboratory testing samples. In these specially prepared samples, clay silt layer with density of $2027kg/m^3$ was selected to be in contact a concrete layer for simplifying the laboratory testing. The particle size testing and direct shear tests are performed to determine the appropriate particles sizes and their shear strength properties such as cohesion and friction angle. Then, the surface undulations in form of teeth are provided on the surfaces of both concrete and soil layers in different testing carried out on these mixed specimens. The soil-concrete samples are prepared in form of cubes of 10*10*30 cm. in dimension. The undulations (inter-surface roughness) are provided in form of one tooth or two teeth having angles $15^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$, respectively. Several direct shear tests were carried out under four different normal loads of 80, 150, 300 and 500 KPa with a constant displacement rate of 0.02 mm/min. These testing results show that the shear failure mechanism is affected by the tooth number, the roughness angle and the applied normal stress on the sample. The teeth are sheared from the base under low normal load while the oblique cracks may lead to a failure under a higher normal load. As the number of teeth increase the shear strength of the sample also increases. When the tooth roughness angle increases a wider portion of the tooth base will be failed which means the shear strength of the sample is increased.
