하악의 개구운동 시, 과두-관절원판 복합체는 관절융기를 따라서 활주운동을 하게 되므로 관절융기의 형태는 측두하악관절의 기능적인 움직임을 이해하는데 매우 중요한 부분이다. 본 연구의 목적은 치과용 cone-beam CT를 이용하여 관절융기의 후방경사를 계측하고, 관절융기의 경사도에 대한 과두의 병적 변화의 영향을 평가하며, 성별과 연령에 따른 관절융기의 차이를 비교 하는 것이다. 이를 위해 원광대학교 산본치과병원에 내원한 102명(남자:43명, 여자:49명, 평균나이: 37.7세)의 204개 측두하악관절의 cone-beam CT 영상을 평가하였으며, 모든 영상은 측두하악관절 분석모드로 전환하여 양측 관절의 연속된 시상 단면 이미지와 관상 단면 이미지를 관찰하였다. 신뢰성있는 데이터를 얻기 위해 숙련된 3명의 치과의사가 동일한 이미지 파일을 보며 판독 작업을 시행하였고, 3명 중 2명의 판독 결과가 동일할 경우만 최종 판독 결과로 기록하였다. 정상과두(NCBC)와 골변화를 동반한 과두(CBC)의 관절융기 경사도는 내측이 $57.0^{\circ}$(NCBC)과 $51.8^{\circ}$(CBC), 중심이 $57.9^{\circ}$(NCBC)과 $52.4^{\circ}$(CBC), 그리고 외측이 $55.1^{\circ}$(NCBC)과 $49.5^{\circ}$(CBC)를 나타냈고, 골변화를 보이는 과두가 정상과두보다 낮은 관절융기 경사도를 보였다. 이러한 차이는 성별이나 연령에 따른 통계적 유의성은 없었다.

2-edge box girder bridges have been widely used in civil engineering practice. However, these bridges show weakness in aerodynamic stability. To overcome this weakness, additional attachments, such as fairing and flap, are usually used. These additional attachments can increase the cost and decrease the constructability. Some previous researchers suggested an aerodynamically stabilized 2-edge box girder section, giving a slope to the edge box instead of installing additional attachments. However, their studies are limited to only dynamic stability, even though static aerodynamic coefficients are as important as dynamic stability. In this study, focus was given to the evaluation of static aerodynamic response for a stabilized 2-edge box girder section. For this, the slopes of the edge box were varied from $0^{\circ}$ to $17^{\circ}$ and static coefficients were obtained through a series of wind tunnel tests. The results were then compared with those from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. From the results, it was found that the drag coefficients generally decreased with the increasing box slope angle, except for the specific box slope range. This range of box slope varied depending on the B/H ratio, and this should be avoided for the practical design of such a bridge, since it results in poor static aerodynamic response.

Active range finders using laser beam have been widely used for the factory automation and quality assurance, but they may be unreliable if the object' slope is steep or its surface is specular. The reliability of an active range finder was analyzed for the variation of the reflected laser beam intensity. First, the properties of the object's reflection were modeled by using the bidirectional reflectance-distribution function(BRDF), and then the variation of the laser beam brightness was formulated for the different configuratioin of the object and sensor. The experimental data of the laser beam reflection were obtained for two materials, mild steel and stainless steel. The parameters of the proposed model were obtained by fitting the data of the mild steel to the model and it was found that the results calculated from the proposed model were in good agreement with the experimental data.

The current waveform model of a laser altimeter is based on a Gaussian laser beam of fundamental mode, while the flattened Gaussian beam has many advantages such as nearly constant energy distribution on the center of the cross-section. Following the theory of the flattened Gaussian beam and the waveform theory of the laser altimeter, some of the primary parameters of the received waveform were derived, and a laser altimetry waveform simulator and waveform processing software were programmed and improved under the circumstance of a flattened Gaussian beam. The result showed that the bias between theoretical and simulated waveforms was less than 3% for every order mode, the waveform width and range error would increase as target slope or order number rose. Under higher order mode, the shapes of the received waveforms were no longer Gaussian, and could be fitted more precisely as a generalized Gaussian function with power bigger than 2. The flattened beam got much better performance for a multi-surface target, especially when the small surface is far from the center of the laser footprint. This article provides the waveform theoretical basis for the use of a flattened Gaussian beam in a laser altimeter.

This paper deals with the analysis of the natural frequencies, mode shapes of an axially loaded beam system carrying ends consisting of non-concentrated tip masses and three spring-two mass sub-systems. The influence of system design and sub-system parameters on the combined system characteristics is the major part of this investigation. The effect of material properties, rotary inertia and shear deformation of the beam system is included. The end masses are elastically supported against rotation and translation at an offset point from the point of attachment. Sub-systems are attached to center of gravity eccentric points out of the beam span. The boundary conditions of the ordinary differential equation governing the lateral deflections and slope due to bending of the beam system including developed shear force frequency dependent terms, due to the sub.system suspension, have been formulated. Exact formulae for the modal frequencies and the modal shapes have been derived. Based on these formulae, detailed parametric studies are carried out. The geometrical and mechanical parameters of the system under study have been presented in non-dimensional analysis. The applied mathematical model is presented to cover wide range of mechanical, naval and structural engineering applications.

This paper deals with the active vibration control of a simply-supported beam traversed by a moving mass using fuzzy control. Governing equations for dynamic responses of a beam under a moving mass are derived by Galerkin's mode summation method, and the effect of forces (gravity force, Coliolis force, inertia force caused by the slope of the beam, transverse inertia force of the beam) due to the moving mass on the dynamic response of a beam is discussed. For the active control of dynamic deflection and vibration of a beam under the moving mass, the controller based on fuzzy logic is used and the experiments are conducted by VCM (voice coil motor) actuator to suppress the vibration of a beam. Through the numerical and experimental studies, the following conclusions were obtained. With increasing mass ratio y at a fixed velocity of the moving mass under the critical velocity, the position of moving mass at the maximum dynamic deflection moves to the right end of the beam. With increasing velocity of the moving mass at a fixed mass ratio ${\gamma}$, the position of moving mass at the maximum dynamic deflection moves to the right end of the beam too. The numerical predictions of dynamic deflection of the beam have a good agreement with the experimental results. With the fuzzy control, more than 50% reductions of dynamic deflection and residual vibration of the tested beam under the moving mass are obtained.

본 연구에서는 처짐각법을 개선하여 강박스형교의 뒤틀림 거동을 분석할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 박스거더의 뒤틀림 거동을 분석하는 대표적인 방법으로 BEF유사법과 EBEF법이 있으나, 전자는 등단면에 국한되고 경계조건에 따른 적분상수를 계산하기 위해 복잡한 삼각함수를 적용해야 하는 번거로움이 있다. 후자는 격벽의 강성을 무한으로 하여 연속보로 해석하는 근시적인 수치해석 방법이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 변단면과 격벽의 강성을 해석에 반영할 수 있는 방법을 개발하였다. 몇 가지 예제 해석을 통하여 본 연구에서 개발한 프로그램의 타당성을 검증하였고, 격벽의 강성에 따른 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다.

Exact analytical solutions for in-plane static problems of planar curved beams with variable curvatures and variable cross-sections are derived by using the initial value method. The governing equations include the axial extension and shear deformation effects. The fundamental matrix required by the initial value method is obtained analytically. Then, the displacements, slopes and stress resultants are found analytically along the beam axis by using the fundamental matrix. The results are given in analytical forms. In order to show the advantages of the method, some examples are solved and the results are compared with the existing results in the literature. One of the advantages of the proposed method is that the high degree of statically indeterminacy adds no extra difficulty to the solution. For some examples, the deformed shape along the beam axis is determined and plotted and also the slope and stress resultants are given in tables.

In estimating the freguency-dependent attenuation coefficient, we analyzed the range-dependent ultrasonic beam and proposed the method of calculating the experimental equation of beam pattern in order to reduce the error on the influence of beam pattern. These experimental equations are divided into the spectral centroid and the spec ural standard deviation slope according to axial propagation length. These are repnesented by the first-order equation in the near field of the beam and the second- order eqLlatlon In the far field. In order to prove the validity of this method, the attenuation coefficients of the non-corrected ease and the corrected case are compared. Using the reflected signal from acryle plate, the attenuation coefficients were estimated by the spectral shift method ann the spectral difference method. The result shows attenuation coeffi talents after correction are better than attenuation coefficients before correction. And this method can be applied In vivo measurement.
