To study the mechanical behaviors of the margins of porcelain-fused-to-metal crown on the posterior teeth, 5 types of margins on the lower first molar were chosen, and then the finite element models were constructed. 50kg forces were applied to the porcelain on the axial wall supported by the metal vertically. The displacements and stresses of the porcelain-fused-to-metal crown were analyzed to investigate the influence of the type of margins. The results were as follows; 1. High tensile stresses were exhibited on the porcelain of the portion of the coronal line angle insufficient metallic support. 2. In case metal coping had a good supporting form to vertical force, uniform compressive stresses were exhibited on their supporting form. 3. Tensile stresses in the inframetallic margin on the series of the shoulder with a bevel margins were decreased in the bevel portion. 4. Principal stresses on the metal of the chamfer marginal portion were decreased comparing with the series of the shoulder margins. 5. The noticeable compressive stress gradients were exhibited between axial cement layer and metal on the series of the shoulder margins. 6. The principal stresses on the marginal cement layer were higher than that of the occlusal surface and axial wall.

This study investigated the applicability of four empirical equations (Morihira et al., 1967; Goda, 2010; Jensen, 1984 and Bradbury et al., 1988; Pedersen, 1996) suggested for estimating the horizontal wave force on the crown wall of sloping breakwaters. For the two exemplary cross sections of the breakwaters whose geometry are apparently different each other, the estimates of horizontal wave force calculated by the four equations were compared. The values of estimated wave force showed considerable discrepancy among the equations for each of the two exemplary breakwater cross sections, respectively. In addition, the relative magnitude of the wave force was quite different according to the breakwater geometry as well as the design wave condition. In general, Morihira's or Goda's formulae produced larger estimates of the horizontal wave force than Jensen/Bradbury's or Pedersen's formulae if the wave period (or wavelength) is comparatively short. In contrast, exactly opposite result was obtained when the wave period or wavelength is comparatively long. Further detailed study based on physical experiments is required to examine the applicability of the four empirical equations considered in this study more thoroughly.

배관 엘보우의 내호면(intrados)의 과 내부에 국부적으로 두께 감육이 발생한 경우, 내압과 엘보우를 닫는 방향으로의 굽힘하중을 부가하여 파손 모드를 연구하였다. 탄소성해석 시 반력-변위 곡선이 세 그룹으로 나뉘므로 각 그룹의 한 경우씩을 해석하여 소성붕괴에 의한 파손모드의 차이를 확인하였다. 이를 위해 주요 부위에서 하중-국부적응력 곡선이 어떻게 변화하는지 결정하여, 이로부터 관찰된 파손모드와 비교하여 설명하였다. 감육폭이 $90^{\circ}$인 경우 배관은 엘보우 측면부터 소성붕괴가 시작되었으며, $360^{\circ}$인 경우 내호면으로부터 소성변형이 시작되어 서로 다른 파손모드를 보여주었다. 배관의 감육측정에 의한 건전성 평가 시 이와 같은 파손 모드의 차이점을 고려하여 평가를 실시하여야 한다.

PURPOSE. This study aims to compare the marginal fitness of two types of implant-supported fixed dental prosthesis, i.e., cementless fixation (CL.F) system and cement-retained type. MATERIALS AND METHODS. In each group, ten specimens were assessed. Each specimen comprised implant lab analog, titanium abutment fabricated with a 2-degree tapered axial wall, and zirconia crown. The crown of the CL.F system was retained by frictional force between abutment and relined composite resin. In the cement-retained type, zinc oxide eugenol cement was used to set crown and abutment. All specimens were sterilized with ethylene oxide, immersed in Prevotella intermedia culture in a 50 mL tube, and incubated with rotation. After 48 h, the specimens were washed thoroughly before separating the crown and abutment. The bacteria that penetrated into the crown-abutment interface were collected by washing with 500 µL of sterile saline. The bacterial cell number was quantified using the agar plate count technique. The BacTiter-Glo Microbial Cell Viability Assay Kit was used to measure bacterial adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-bioluminescence, which reflects the bacterial viability. The t-test was performed, and the significance level was set at 5%. RESULTS. The number of penetrating bacterial cells assessed by colony-forming units was approximately 33% lower in the CL.F system than in the cement-retained type (P<.05). ATP-bioluminescence was approximately 41% lower in the CL.F system than in the cement-retained type (P<.05). CONCLUSION. The CL.F system is more resistant to bacterial penetration into the abutment-crown interface than the cement-retained type, thereby indicating a precise marginal fit.

Since pipes with wall-thinning defects can collapse at fluid pressure that are lower than expected, the collapse moment of wall-thinned pipes should be determined accurately for the safety of nuclear power plants. Wall-thinning defects, which are mostly found in pipe bends and elbows, are mainly caused by flow-accelerated corrosion. This lowers the failure pressure, load-carrying capacity, deformation ability, and fatigue resistance of pipe bends and elbows. This paper offers a support vector regression (SVR) model further enhanced with a fuzzy algorithm for calculation of the collapse moment and for evaluating the integrity of wall-thinned piping systems. The fuzzy support vector regression (FSVR) model is applied to numerical data obtained from finite element analyses of piping systems with wall-thinning defects. In this paper, three FSVR models are developed, respectively, for three data sets divided into extrados, intrados, and crown defects corresponding to three different defect locations. It is known that FSVR models are sufficiently accurate for an integrity evaluation of piping systems from laser or ultrasonic measurements of wall-thinning defects.

The pipe bends and elbows in nuclear power plants (NPPs) are vulnerable to degradation mechanisms and can cause wall-thinning defects. As it is difficult to detect both the defects generated inside the wall-thinned pipes and the preliminary signs, the wall-thinning defects should be accurately estimated to maintain the integrity of NPPs. This paper proposes a deep fuzzy neural network (DFNN) method and estimates the collapse moment of wall-thinned pipe bends and elbows. The proposed model has a simplified structure in which the fuzzy neural network module is repeatedly connected, and it is optimized using the least squares method and genetic algorithm. Numerical data obtained through simulations on the pipe bends and elbows with extrados, intrados, and crown defects were applied to the DFNN model to estimate the collapse moment. The acquired databases were divided into training, optimization, and test datasets and used to train and verify the estimation model. Consequently, the relative root mean square (RMS) errors of the estimated collapse moment at all the defect locations were within 0.25% for the test data. Such a low RMS error indicates that the DFNN model is accurate in estimating the collapse moment for wall-thinned pipe bends and elbows.

Shake table tests were conducted on scaled tunnel model to investigate the mechanism and effect of seismic loadings on horseshoe scaled tunnel model in ground fissure site. Key technical details of the experimental test were set up, including similarity relations, boundary conditions, sensor layout, modelling methods were presented. Synthetic waves and El Centro waves were adopted as the input earthquake waves. Results measured from hanging wall and foot wall were compared and analyzed. It is found that the seismic loadings increased the subsidence of hanging wall and lead to the appearance and propagation of cracks. The values of acceleration, earth pressure and strain were greater in the hanging wall than those in the foot wall. The tunnel exhibited the greatest earth pressure on right and left arches, however, the earth pressure on the crown of arch is the second largest and the inverted arch has the least earth pressure in the same tunnel section. Therefore, the effect of the hanging wall on the seismic performance of metro tunnel in earth fissure ground should be considered in the seismic design.

This paper presents plastic limit loads and approximate J estimates for axial through-wall cracked pipe bends under internal pressure and in-plane bending. Geometric variables associated with a crack and pipe bend are systematically varied, and three possible crack locations (intrados, extrados and crown) in pipe bends are considered. Based on small strain finite element limit analyses using elastic-perfectly plastic materials, effect of bend and crack geometries on plastic limit loads for axial through-wall cracked pipe bends under internal pressure and in-plane bending are quantified, and closed-form limit solutions are given. Based on proposed limit load solutions, a J estimation scheme for axial through-wall cracked pipe bends under internal pressure and in-plane bending is proposed based on reference stress approach.
