Results of an experimental study on the pullout behavior of the headed reinforcement are presented. A total of 48 pullout tests was performed to evaluate pullout strengths and load-displacement behaviors in pullout of the headed bars. The square steel heads had gross area of 4 $A_{b}$ and thickness of $d_{b}$ The test program consisted of three pullout test groups: Simple and Edge pullout tests using plain concrete slabs, comparison of pullout performances between the standard hooks and the headed reinforcement, and pullout tests of headed reinforcement using reinforced concrete columns. Test variables included concrete strengths ( $f_{c}$' = 27.1MPa, 39.1MPa), reinforcing bar diameters (D16~D29), embedment depths (6 $d_{b}$~12 $d_{b}$), edge conditions, column reinforcement, and single-vs.-multiple bar pullout. Test results revealed that the heads effectively provided the pullout resistances of the deformed bars in tension. The load-displacement behaviors were similar between the 90-degree hooks and the headed reinforcement. When a multiple number of headed bars installed with small head-to-head spacings was pulled out, reinforcement designed to run across the concrete failure surface in a direction parallel to the headed bars helped improve the pullout performances of the headed reinforcement.t.ement.t.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid for the treatment of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint(TMJ). Sixteen patients with internal derangements of TMJ in 1 male and 15 females aged 68 to 18 years comprised the study material. The patients' complaint was limited mouth opening and pain during function. Patients were divided into 3 groups(articular disc displacement with reduction, articular disc displacement without reduction, osteoarthritis group). The preauricular area was disinfected anesthetized locally with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride. Arthrocentesis was performed. Hyaluronic acid(1.5 ㏄) was then injected into the superior compartment of the TMJ. Active range of motion exercises were instituted at approximately 24 hours postoperatively. Antibiotics and NSAID, three times daily by mouth, was prescribed for 3 days. Clinical evaluation of the patients was done before the procedure, immediately after the procedure, final follow-up visit postoperatively. Pain during function was assessed using visual analog scales(VAS). Maximal mouth opening was recorded as a distance between upper incisal edge and lower incisal edge. Intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid caused significant reduction of pain during function, significant increase of maximal opening range. These findings suggest that intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid is useful for decreasing patient reports of pain while increasing functional mobility of the mandible in internal derangements of the TMJ.

The occurrence of an inclined edge crack in transversely piezoelectric material is analyzed. Concentrated antiplane mechanical and inplane electrical loads are applied at the boundary and crack surface, respectively. The crack surfaces are assumed to be impermeable to the electric field. Using the Mellin transform with the introduction of a generalized displacement vector, the problem is formulated, and the Wiener-Hopf equation is derived. By solving the equation, the solution is obtained in a closed form. The intensity factors of the stress, the electric displacement, and the energy release rate are obtained for any crack length and inclination angle. These solutions can be used as fundamental solutions and can be superimposed to represent any arbitrary electromechanical loading.

The problem of interface crack in the bonded structures has received a great deal of attention in recent years. In this paper the aluminum bonded single lap-joint containing the interface edge crack is investigated. The tensile load and the average shear stress of the adhesive joints which have different crack length are obtained from the static tensile tests. The critical value of crack length to provoke the interface fracture is determined to a/L=0.4, where a is the interface crack length and L is the adhesive lap-length. The fracture mechanical parameters are introduced to confirm the existence of the critical crack length. The compliance and the stress intensity factors are calculated using the displacement and the stress near the interface crack tip by the boundary element method. These numerical results support the experimental results that the critical value of a/L is 0.4. It is known that the compliance and the stress intensity factors are the efficient parameters to estimate the bonded single lap-joint containing the interface edge crack.

Depth calculation of objects in a scene from images is one of the most studied processes in the fields of image processing, computer vision, and photogrammetry. Conventionally, depth is calculated using a pair of overlapped images captured at different view points. However, there have been studies to calculate depths from a single image. Theoretically, it is known to be possible to calculate depth using the diameter of CoC (Circle of Confusion) caused by defocus under the assumption of a thin lens model. Thus, this study aims to verify the validity of the thin lens model to calculate depth from edge blur amount which corresponds to the radius of CoC. For this study, a commercially available DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) camera was used to capture a set of target sheets which had different edge contrasts. In order to find out the pattern of the variations of edge blur against varying combination of FD (Focusing Distance) and OD (Object Distance), the camera was set to varying FD and target sheet images were captured at varying OD under each FD. Then, the edge blur and edge displacement were estimated from edge slope profiles using a brute-force method. The experimental results show that the pattern of the variations of edge blur observed in the target images was apart from their corresponding theoretical amounts derived under the thin lens assumption but can still be utilized to calculate depth from a single image for the cases similar to the limited conditions experimented under which the tendency between FD and OD is manifest.

This study investigated that the stress reduction of single edge cracked plates with patch repairs according to different type of patching such as material, size and thickness of patch and adhesive as well as single sided or double sided patches. As a numerical tool, the p-convergent partial layerwise model has been employed. The proposed model is formulated by assuming piecewise linear variation of in-plane displacement and a constant value of out-of-plane displacements across thickness. The integrals of Legendre polynomials are chosen to define displacement fields and Gauss-Lobatto numerical integration is implemented in order to directly obtain maximum values occurred at the nodal points of each layer without other extrapolation techniques. Also, total strain energy release rate method is adopted to obtain stress intensity factors. Numerical examples are presented not only to demonstrate the stress reduction effect in terms of non-dimensional stress intensity factor and deflection with respect to different type of patch repairs, but also the accuracy of proposed model.

For vacuum seated panel, stresses and displacements in the glass plate were calculated. The geometric variables for our experiment were the thickness of glass plate, the size of panel and the width of sealing line. The fracture behaviors and displacements of its under the vacuum were measured. From the measurement of strains and fracture, it was considered that the maximum stress acted at the middle of the sides of the panel. The stresses and displacement distribution of manufactured panels were greatly dependent on the width of the sealing line in the panel. The measured values are more similar to the values which were calculated from the condition of built-in edge as the width of the sealing line is larger. The measured displacement of the panel, made of 3mm thick glass plate, with size of $80\Times120\textrm{mm}^2$ and 20mm sealing line was $57\mu\textrm{m}$. This value is similar to calculated value, $54\mu\textrm{m}$, from built- in edge condition in the finite element method.

Solution for elastic foundation of plane strain state was derived by the application of variational method. Functions of the transverse distribution of the displacements for the analysis were chosen as linear functions. Loading conditions considered for the analysis were concentrated load and distributed load. Under the loading condition of the concentrated load, surface displacement was decreased drastically as the distance from the point of the loading increased. Under the loading condition of the distributed load, surface displacements were more uniformly distributed beneath the loading area when the ratio of the half of the loading width to the depth(B/H) of the compressible layer was greater. The surface displacement was more quickly converged from the edge of the loading area as the ratio(B/H) increased.

Purpose: Globe displacement due to a blowout fracture is a rare clinical phenomenon. The authors present reduction of a globe displacement to the maxillary sinus due to trauma suffered in a fall and the reconstruction of a large defect left in the medial and inferior orbit. Methods: A 39-year-old male patient was unable to open his left eye after being struck on the periorbital area by a metal edge. Laceration was not noted in that area but we were unable to observe the intraorbital globe. A facial computed tomography (CT) scan showed that the globe was displaced through the maxillary sinus. A transconjunctival approach was used to access the infraorbital margin and the globe entrapped in the inferior margin of the orbit was successfully reduced. A large defect in the medial and inferior orbit was reconstructed using a graft from the iliac bone. Results: In 5 months after the operation, no atrophy of the globe was seen. Both sides retained a similar shape. A satisfactory functionality outcome in terms of improved extraocular muscle movement, and a satisfactory aesthetical outcome were achieved. Conclusion: The authors report the reduction of a globe displaced to the maxillary sinus following a fall and the reconstruction of the large defect left in the medial and inferior orbit.

To examine small fatigue crack behavior, the crack opening displacement (COD) was measured for surface cracks in the range of few tens to hundreds .mu.m using the computerized Interferometric Strain/Displacement Gage (ISDG) which could measure the relative displacement with a resolution of 0.02 .mu.m. The load-COD record is stored and analyzed after the test to determined the opening load. Single-edge notched specimens, 2.3mm thick, of Al 2024-T3 were precracked at load ratios of 0.0, -1.0 and -2.0 to make small fatigue cracks. The opening loads were measured these small cracks and compared with those of long cracks. The opening load ratios for the short cracks are about 10% smaller than those for long cracks at positive R-ratios, but are about 100% smaller at negative R-ratios.
