The purpose of this study was to compare the initial apical file(IAF) first Ole that fits to the apex in each canal before and after early flaring to analyze if the size of file to fit to the apex would increase after flaring. Eighty anterior teeth with complete apical formation and patent foramens were selected. The samples were randomly divided into 4 groups(GG, OS, GT, PT Group) of 20 teeth each. A file was fit to the apex in each canal and that size recorded. Radicular flaring were completed using different types of instruments. After flaring a file was again fit to the apex in the same manner as before and its size recorded. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The mean diameter of IAF before flaring(file diameters in $mm{\times}10^{-2}$) was $19.81{\pm}8.32$ before and $25.94{\pm}9.21$ after(p<0.05). 2. The increase in diameter of IAF was approximately one file size for all groups. 3. Ranking of increasing diameter of IAF were GG>CT>OS>PT group. There was a statistically significant difference between before and after flaring(p<0.05). 4 Ranking of the time for flaring were GG>GT>OS>PT group. There was a statistically significant difference between GG group and other groups(p<0.05). 5. In the case without change of IAF diameter, they showed decrease in force after flaring when IAF was pulled out from root canal(p<0.05). This study suggested that early radicular flaring increases the file size that is snug at the apex, and awareness of that difference gives the clinician a better sense of canal size. Early flaring of the canal provides better apical size information and with this awareness, a better decision can be made concerning the appropriate final diameter needed for complete apical shaping.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quantity of debris which was extruded apically after canal instrumentation using different types of enlarging instrument in endodontic resin models. Five groups of 9 endodontic resin models were instrumented using each different technique : hand instrumentation without early coronal flaring. hand instrumentation after early coronal flaring. and three nickel-titanium engine-driven instrumentations (Hero 642, Protaper, $K^$). Debris extruded from apical foramen during instrumentation was collected on preweighed CBC bottle, desiccated and weighted using electronic balance. The results were analyzed using Kruskal-wallis test and Mann-Whitney U rank sum test at a significance level of 0.05. The results were as follows: 1. All of instrumentation techniques produced apically extruded debris. 2. Group without early coronal flaring extruded significant more debris than groups with early coronal flaring. 3. There was no significant difference among early coronal flaring groups. The early coronal flaring is very important to reduce the amount of debris extruded apically.

The flaring system of FPSO burns out the byproduct natural gas. The thermal loading due to radiative heat of flaring gas leads to undesirable thermal-stresses on itself. Nowadays it needs to understand the amount of thermal loading of flaring system since the requirement for the safety of the flaring system. However, few studies have been performed on the thermal environment and radiative heat flux on the FPSO flaring system. Present study suggests a procedure to model the thermal environment and a FEA process to analyze the temperature distribution and thermal stresses of FPSO flaring system. In order to get the temperature distribution, the radiative heat conditions and convective heat conditions are included in the heat transfer analysis. By making the use of temperature obtained through heat transfer analysis, the thermal stress analyses are performed. The results of the present study can be used to design the flaring system and determine the heat shield in the flaring system.

Proper motion of sunspots in several active regions was studied to detect their indicator on flare onset, using data from the Solar Flare Telescope at Mitaka (four flaring active regions), TRACE (e.g. NOAA 0424, M1.7 flare on 5 Aug. 2003) and Hinode (e.g. NOAA 10930, X3.4 flare on 13 Dec. 2006). The proper motion of individual sunspots was derived using a local correlation tracking method. As a result, we found that the sunspots that are located under or close to a part of chromospheric flaring patches showed a change in their moving direction prior to the flare onset. The change in their movements took place a half to two hours before the flare onset. On the other hand, sunspots in non-flaring areas or non-flaring active regions did not show this kind of change. It is likely, therefore, that if a sunspot shows the particular movement, a chromospheric flare is to occur in its nearby region. In the most active regions, the part of flare ribbons was located on an emerging bipolar pair of sunspots. The disturbance in the usual motion of the bipolar sunspots and in other sunspots as well can be interpreted as a sign of magnetic shear development leading to final magnetic energy buildup before its sudden release. We suggest that the change in sunspot motion in a short time scale prior to the flare onset can be regarded as a good indicator in predicting the onset timing and location of chromospheric flares.

We prepared composite membrane which was made with polysulfone supported hollow fiber membrane coated with Hyflon AD to eliminate $CO_2$ gas from mixed-gases which were generated in DME manufacturing processes. The performance of module about simulated flaring gas was measured by using manufactured composite membrane. 1-stage evaluation result shows $CO_2$ concentration was below 3% at 1.2 MPa and at Stage cut 0.24 above. In addition $CO_2$ removal rate and $CH_4$ recovery rate was 80% respectively at the same condition. 2-stage evaluation result shows, when the $CO_2$ concentration of product gas was fixed at 5%, recycled $CO_2$ at stage cut 0.074 had the same concentration as the feed gas and the recovery rate of $CH_4$ was 99% at the moment.

The objective of this in vitro study was to evaluate the efficacy of a Ca(OH)$_2$removal before and after early coronal flaring using different types of instruments. 100 plastic blocks with 30$^{\circ}$artificial curved canals were used in this study and randomly divided into a control group and 4 experimental groups(GG, OS, GT, PT Group) 20 teeth each. The canals were instrumented, and Ca(OH)$_2$was temporary filled into the each canal. Irrigation was peformed with Max-i-Probe 25- 30-gauge probes before and after recapitulation. The results of this study were as follows 1. There were no significant difference among the groups in size of irrigating needle(p<0.05). 2. There was a significant difference between before and after recapitulation regardless size of irrigating needle(p<0.05). 3. Before recapitulation, there was a significant difference between 25- and 30-gauge needle in all groups(P<0.05). 4. After recapitulation, there was a significant difference between 25- and 30-gauge needle in the control group(p<0.05). But there were no significant difference among the experimental groups. It is concluded that the effectiveness of canal irrigation was decided to the depth of irrigating needle into the canal. The effect of canal irrigation tend to facilitate by the early coronal flaring. The recapitulation was the most effective during canal irrigation regardless the size of irrigating needle. Therefore, the recapitulation is a mandatory way to facilitate the effectiveness of canal irrigation during canal enlargement.

In this study, we report oscillations of the total intensity of white light loops in the off-limb solar flare observed in 2017-Sep-10 with the SDO/HMI. The total intensity oscillations are correlated with the area of the flaring loop in the plane of the sky. The oscillatory pattern is well fitted by two consecutive damped oscillations. The period and damping time of the first oscillation are 12.9 minutes and 9.9 minutes, respectively. Those of the second oscillation are 11.7 minutes and 15.4 minutes. The excitation of the oscillations coincides with two consecutive type III radio bursts observed in meter range. Assuming the oscillations are magnetoacoustic waves in the flaring loops with the loop lengths ranging from 30 to 90 Mm, the temperature of the white light emitting loops could be in the range from 0.3 MK to 2.6 MK.

A model system was used which enabled the same root canal system to be measured before and after coronal flaring of 51 extracted mandibular molars. The concavity of the distal surface of the mesial root was measured and the amount of reduction was compared after coronal flaring using step-back flared preparation, Gates-Glidden dirll or ultrasonic system(Quick-$\varepsilon$) at the furcation and apical 3mm from the furcation. The results were as follows: 1. The mean concavity of mesial root of manchbular molar was $0.73{\pm}0.27mm$ at the bifurcation and $0.65{\pm}0.23mm$ at the 3.0mm apical from the bifurcation. 2. The thickness of the root canal wall of the mesiobuccal canal was $1.08{\pm}0.26mm$ at the bifurcation and $1.00{\pm}0.23mm$ at the 3.0mm apical from the bifurcation. 3. The thickness of the root canal wall of the mesiolingual was $1.09{\pm}0.21mm$ at the bifurcation and $0.98{\pm}0.29mm$ at the 3.0mm apical from the bifurcation. 4. In the amount of reduction at the furcation and at the 3.0mm apical from the furcation there was no statistically significant difference between the step-back preparation and Gates-Glidden drill preparation, and ultrasonic preparation(P>0.05).
