본 연구는 교정용 금속 브라켓에 다양한 방향에서의 복합적인 응력을 가하여 힘의 방향과 적용점에 따른 교정용 브라켓의 결합강도를 비교하고, 브라켓의 유지력을 평가하는데 기준이 되는 최소결합강도의 특성에 대해 알아보고자 시행되었다. 일정 한 표면특성을 갖는 금속봉에 Micro-Loc base, Chessboard base, Non-etched Foil-Mesh base 등 서로 다른 기저 면 형태를 가지는 3가지 종류의 금속 브라켓을 부착시키고, $0^{\circ},\;15^{\circ},\;30^{\circ},\;45^{\circ},\;60^{\circ},\;75^{\circ},\;90^{\circ}$의 Peel 결합강도$(_0PBS, \;_{15}PBS,\;_{30}PBS,\;_{45}PBS,\;_{60}PBS,\;_{75}PBS,\;_{90}PBS)$ 및 전단결합강도(SBS)와 인장결합강도(TBS)에 대한 브라켓의 결합강도를 측정하고, 각 브라켓의 기저면 면적을 고려하여 단위면적당 결합강도를 산출하여 비교한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Micro-Loc base와 Chessboard base 및 Non-etched Foil-Mesh base 브라켓 모두에서 전단결합강도(SBS)가 가장 컸다(P<0.01). 2. Peel 응력의 방향 변화에 따른 peel 결합강도(PBS)의 변화양상은 Micro-Loc base와 Chessboard base, Non-etched Foil-Mesh base 브라켓 모두에서 유사하였으며 (p>0.05), peel 응력의 적용 각이 증가할수록 peel 결합강도(PBS)는 감소하였고 $60^{\circ}$에서 최저값을 보였다(p<0.05). 3. Micro-Loc base에서 최저 peel 결합강도$(_{60}PBS)$는 전단결합강도(SBS)의 $29\%$ 수준이었으며, 인장결합강토(TBS)에 대해서는 $52\%$ 수준이었고, Chessboard base에서 최저 Peel bond strength$(_{60}PBS)$는 전단결합강도(SBS)의 $34\%$ 수준이었으며, 인장결합강도(TBS)에 대해서는 $61\%$ 수준이었으며, Non-etched Foil-Mesh base에서 최저 Peel 결합 강도$(_{60}PBS)$는 전단결합강도(SBS)의 $34\%$ 수준이었으며, 인장결합강도(TBS)에 대해서는 $55\%$ 수준이었다. 4. 단위 면적 당 결합강도에 있어서 전단결합강도(SBS)와 인장결합강도(TBS) 및 $75^{\circ}\;와\;90^{\circ}$ peel 결합강도는 Micro-Loc base와 Chessboard base에서 차이 가 없었으며 Non-etched Foil-Mesh base에서 가장 작았고(p<0.05), $0^{\circ},\;15^{\circ},\;30^{\circ},\;60^{\circ}$ peel응력을 적용한 결과 Chessboard base에서 가장 큰 Peel결합강도를, Non-etched Foil-Mesh base에서 가장 작은 결합강도를 보였다(p<0.05).

The multi-story timber structure with high platform base is one of the important architectural types in the traditional Chinese buildings. To study the dynamic characteristics and seismic responses on this kind of traditional structure, the 3-D finite element models of Xi'an drum tower which included the high platform base, upper timber structure and whole structure was established considering the structural form and material performance parameters of the structure in this study. By the modal analysis, the main frequencies and mode shapes of this kind of traditional building were obtained and investigated. The three kinds of earthquake excitations included El-Centro wave, Taft wave and Lanzhou wave were separately imposed on the upper timber structure model and the overall structure model, and the seismic responses on the tops of columns were analyzed. The results of time history analysis show that the seismic response of the upper timber structure is obviously amplified by high platform base. After considering the effect of high platform base, the mean value on the lateral displacement increments of the top column in the overall structure is more than 20.478% and the increase of dynamic coefficients was all above 0.818 under the above three different earthquake excitations. Obviously, it shows that the existence of high platform base has a negative influence on the seismic responses of upper timber structure. And the high platform base will directly affect the safety of the upper timber structure. Therefore, the influence of high platform base on the dynamic response of its upper timber structure cannot be neglected.

PURPOSE. The aim of this study was to investigate the destructive effects of biofilm formation and/or biocorrosive activity of 6 different oral microorganisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three different heat polymerized acrylic resins (Ivocap Plus, Lucitone 550, QC 20) were used to prepare three different types of samples. Type "A" samples with "V" type notch was used to measure the fracture strength, "B" type to evaluate the surfaces with scanning electron microscopy and "C" type for quantitative biofilm assay. Development and calculation of biofilm covered surfaces on denture base materials were accomplished by SEM and quantitative biofilm assay. According to normality assumptions ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis was selected for statistical analysis (${\alpha}$=0.05). RESULTS. Significant differences were obtained among the adhesion potential of 6 different microorganisms and there were significant differences among their adhesion onto 3 different denture base materials. Compared to the control groups after contamination with the microorganisms, the three point bending test values of denture base materials decreased significantly (P<.05); microorganisms diffused at least 52% of the denture base surface. The highest median quantitative biofilm value within all the denture base materials was obtained with P. aeruginosa on Lucitone 550. The type of denture base material did not alter the diffusion potential of the microorganisms significantly (P>.05). CONCLUSION. All the tested microorganisms had destructive effect over the structure and composition of the denture base materials.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity and mutagenicity of denture base resins. According to manufacturer's instructions, resin specimens were made. Group 1 : heat-polymerizing acrylic resin (Luciton $199^{(R)}$) Group 2 : heat-polymerizing acrylic resin containing polyhedraloligosilsesquioxane(POSS resin) Group 3 : auto-polymerizing acrylic resin (Repair $Acrylic^{(R)}$) Group 4 : direct relining auto-polymerizing acrylic resin (Tokuso $Rebase^{(R)}$). Fresh specimens 24 hrs. and 72 hrs. soaked specimens in distil)ed water were made. Responses with metabolic assay and mutagenesis assay to eluates from resin specimens were measured. Cultures with medium alone provided controls. Cytotoxicity was assessed with agar overlay test. The results were as follows; 1. Group 4 showed higher cytotoxicity than Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 in fresh, 24-an4 72-hour immersion caries (p<.05). Group 3 showed higher cytotoxicity than Group 2 in fresh cases and showed higher cytotoxicity than Group 1 and Group 2 in 24-and 72-hour immersion cases (p<.05) . Group 1 and Group 2 showed no significant difference. 2. All acrylic denture base resins skewed significant increase of cell activity as immersion time increased (p<.05). 3. Auto-polymerizing acrylic denture base resins skewed higher cytotoxicity than heat-polymerizing acrylic denture base resins (p<.05). 4. All acrylic denture base resins showed lower mutagenicity than controls (p<.05).

Recently, magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) material and its devices have been developed and attracted a good deal of attention for their potentials in vibration control. Among them, a highly adaptive base isolator based on MRE was designed, fabricated and tested for real-time adaptive control of base isolated structures against a suite of earthquakes. To perfectly take advantage of this new device, an accurate and robust model should be built to characterize its nonlinearity and hysteresis for its application in structural control. This paper first proposes a novel hysteresis model, in which a nonlinear hyperbolic sine function spring is used to portray the strain stiffening phenomenon and a Voigt component is incorporated in parallel to describe the solid-material behaviours. Then the fruit fly optimization algorithm (FFOA) is employed for model parameter identification using testing data of shear force, displacement and velocity obtained from different loading conditions. The relationships between model parameters and applied current are also explored to obtain a current-dependent generalized model for the control application. Based on the proposed model of MRE base isolator, a second-order sliding mode controller is designed and applied to the device to provide a real-time feedback control of smart structures. The performance of the proposed technique is evaluated in simulation through utilizing a three-storey benchmark building model under four benchmark earthquake excitations. The results verify the effectiveness of the proposed current-dependent model and corresponding controller for semi-active control of MRE base isolator incorporated smart structures.

Management of traumatic skull base fractures and associated complications pose a unique reconstructive challenge. The goals of skull base reconstruction include structural support for the brain and orbit, separation of the central nervous system from the aerodigestive tract, volume to decrease dead space, and restoration of the three-dimensional appearance of the face and cranium with bone and soft tissues. An open bicoronal approach is the most commonly used technique for craniofacial disassembly of the bifrontal region, with evacuation of intracranial hemorrhage and dural repair performed prior to reconstruction. Depending on the defect size and underlying patient and operative factors, reconstruction may involve bony reconstruction using autografts, allografts, or prosthetics in addition to soft tissue reconstruction using vascularized local or distant tissues. The vast majority of traumatic anterior cranial fossa (ACF) injuries resulting in smaller defects of the cranial base itself can be successfully reconstructed using local pedicled pericranial or galeal flaps. Compared with historical nonvascularized ACF reconstructive options, vascularized reconstruction using pericranial and/or galeal flaps has decreased the rate of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak from 25 to 6.5%. We review the existing literature on this uncommon entity and present our case series of n = 6 patients undergoing traumatic reconstruction of the ACF at an urban Level 1 trauma center from 2016 to 2018. There were no postoperative CSF leaks, mucoceles, episodes of meningitis, or deaths during the study follow-up period. In conclusion, use of pericranial, galeal, and free flaps, as indicated, can provide reliable and durable reconstruction of a wide variety of injuries.

Purpose: Most unilateral secondary cleft lip nose deformities have depressed nostril base and sill on the cleft side. To obtain a symmetric nose, correction of the recession on nostril is critical. The authors have worked out effective methods to elevate the nostril of the cleft side according to the extent of the depression. Methods: A total of 115 unilateral secondary cleft lip nose deformity patients with nostril depression were evaluated. Data were acquired from patients' charts and photography with special reference to the height difference of the nostrils between the cleft side and the non - cleft side. Patients were divided into three groups based on the difference and operated with various techniques : (1) mild degree(< 1 mm) with graft, (2) moderate degree(1 ~ 3 mm) with C - flap or suspension suture of septal cartilage (3) severe degree(> 3 mm) with graft, C - flap and suspension suture. Follow - up period averaged 21.3 months. Results: Forty - six patients(40 percent) were in mild group, and forty - two(37 percent) were in moderate. In twenty - seven patients(23 percent), nostril recession was more than 3 mm. The elevated nostril base and sill were maintained without height alteration during follow - up. Conclusion: The symmetry of the nostril base, especially projection of nostril sill influences successful correction of unilateral cleft lip nose deformity. Our tolerable techniques can be applied to most deformities with nostril depression and can present a new guideline.

Cancer is a highly complex medical problem with ramifications for public health throughout the world. Most studies have mainly focused on change in the nuclei as being aetiologically responsible. Few have examined the relationship between the cytoplasm and cancer, despite the fact that research has indicated that the cytoplasmic environment is an important factor for cellular differentiation and that the genetic information provided by the nucleus is entirely dependent on this environment for its expression. Gene mutations may be the result, rather than the cause of carcinogenesis. We submit a new concept - "short base sequences" (50-500 bps, including DNA or RNA sequences) in the cytoplasm which could play an important role in carcinogenesis. This is a new theory to explain the origin of the cancer.
