Zirconia polycrystalline (Y-TZP) showed better mechanical properties and superior resistance to fracture than other conventional dental ceramics. Zirconia-based ceramics have been successfully introduced into the clinic to fabricate fixed dental prostheses (FDPs), along with a dental computer-aided/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) system. It has been clinically available as an alternative to the metal framework for fixed dental prostheses (FDPs). The most frequent clinical complication with zirconia-based FDPs was chipping of the veneering porcelain that was affected by many factors. Another option was full-contour zirconia FDPs using high translucent zirconia. Full-contour zirconia FDPs has many clinical advantages but it caused concern about the wear of antagonist enamel, because the hardness of Y-TZP was over double that of porcelain. However, many articles demonstrates that highly polished zirconia yielded lower antagonist wear compared with porcelains. In this article (1) advantages of full zirconia restorations, (2) clinical applications of zirconia restorations, (3) abutment preparation, (4) surface finish of zirconia restoration and antagonist enamel wear, (5) bond of zirconia with resin-based luting agents, (6) communication in clinical & lab.procedures for full zirconia restorations are reviewed.

결정질 태양전지 제작에서, passavtion은 표면의 반사도를 줄여주는 반사 방지막의 역할과 표면의 dangling bond를 감소시켜, 표면 재결합 속도를 줄이고 minority carrier lifetime을 증가하는 데 큰 영향을 미친다. 그렇기 때문에 저가형 고효율 태양전지 제작에서 우수한 특성을 가지는 passivation막은 매우 중요한 이슈이다. 본 연구에서는 LBC(local back contact) 구조를 가지는 단결정 태양전지 후면에, 기존의 Full Al-BSF의 passivation 막을 SiNx와 ONO passivation 막으로 각각 대체하여, LBC 구조에서 더 적합한 passivation 막을 찾고자 하였다. SiNx와 ONO passivation 막은 단결정 LBC 구조 태양전지 후면에 각각 형성되었고 $800^{\circ}C$, 20 sec 조건으로 소성되었다. 실험결과는 minority carrier lifetime과 surface recombination velocity로 관찰하였다. 그 결과, SiNx passivation 막의 표면 재결합 속도는 29.7cm/s이고, ONO passivation 막의 표면 재결합 속도는 24.5cm/s로, Full Al-BSF 표면 재결합 속도 750cm/s에 비해 더 적합한 passivation 막으로 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로 SiNx,ONO passivation 막이 Full Al-BSF보다 전극에 수집되는 캐리어의 양이 많아짐에 따라 효율향상을 가져올 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of light-cured glass ionomer cements to dentin surface according to curing time induced by argon laser. In this study, 160 extracted human molars with sound crown were used. The dentin surface of these teeth were exposed with high speed diamond bur under water spray and polished with 120, 320, 400, 800, 1200 grits sand paper. 160 extracted human molars were randomly assigned into four groups (control, experimental 1, 2 & 3) with 40 teeth each. Control group used a visible light curing unit, XL 1000(3M Co., U.S.A) and experimental groups used argon laser($SPECTRUM^{TM}$). And then each group subdivided into two groups (A, B) according to filling materials. Subdivided A group used Fuji II LC(GC Co., Japan), B group used Vitremer(3M Co., U.S.A). The curing units and curing time of each group were as follows : Control group : visible light, 40 seconds Experimental group 1 Experimental group 2 Experimental group 3 : argon laser, 10 seconds : argon laser, 20 seconds : argon laser, 30 seconds The glass ionomer cements were bonded to dentin surface of each specimen. The specimens were stored in 100% relative humidity at 37"c for 7days. And then, the shear bond strength were measured by universal testing machine(Shimatzu Co. Japan) at crosshead speed of 5mm/min and 100kg in full scale and analyzed statistically. The following results were obtained : 1. Experimental group 2-A showed the highest shear bond strength with $9.87{\pm}1.24$ kgf and control group B showed the lowest shear bond strength with $4.08{\pm}0.78$ kgf(P<0.01). 2. The Fuji II LC showed higher shear bond strength with $9.49{\pm}1.24$ kgf than that of the Vitremer with $4.23{\pm}1.24$ kgf. There was significant difference between Fuji II LC and Vitremer(p<0.01). 3. There was no significant differences among experimental groups according to curing time induced by argon laser. 4. There was no significant differences between control group and experimental groups according to curing units.

Thermo-mechanical behaviors of wire-bond plastic ball grid array (WB-PBGA) package assemblies are characterized by high-sensitivity moire interferometry. Using the real-time moire setup, fringe patterns are recorded and analyzed for several temperatures. Experiments are conducted for three types of WB-PBGA package that have full grid pattern and perimeter pattern with/without central connections. Bending deformations of the assemblies and average strains of the solder balls are investigated, with an emphasis on the effect of solder interconnection grid patterns, Thermal strain distributions and the location of the critical solder ball in package assemblies are quite different with the form of solder ball grid pattern. For the WB-PBGA-PC, The largest of effective strain occurred in the inner solder ball of perimeter closest to the chip solder balls. The critical solder ball is located at the edge of the chip for the WB-PBGA-FG, at the most outer solder ball of central connections for the WB-PBGA-P/C, and at the inner solder ball closest to the chip for the WB-PBGA-P.

Over the past couple decades, externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have emerged as a repair and strengthening material for many concrete infrastructure applications. This paper presents an analytical investigation of the use of carbon FRP (CFRP) for a specific problem that occurs in concrete bridge girders wherein the girder ends are damaged by excessive exposure to deicing salts and numerous freezing/thawing cycles. A 3D finite element (FE) model of a full scale prestressed concrete (PC) I-girder is used to investigate the effect of damage to the cover concrete and stirrups in the end region of the girder. Parametric studies are performed using externally bonded CFRP shear laminates to determine the most effective repair schemes for the damaged end region under a short shear span-to-depth ratio. Experimental results on shear pull off tests of CFRP laminates that have undergone accelerated aging are used to calibrate a bond stress-slip model for the interface between the FRP and concrete substrate and approximate the reduced bond stress-slip properties associated with exposure to the environment that causes this type of end region damage. The results of these analyses indicate that this particular application of this material can be effective in recovering the original strength of PC bridge girders with damaged end regions, even after environmental aging.

The discovery of the Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) by Farran in 1956 initiated a new era in the study of the behaviour of concrete. Acknowledged as the weak link, this ITZ was studied extensively, numerically as well as experimentally. While the complementary experimental tests illustrated the visual behaviour of this specimen under increasing monotonic compression loading, a perfect bond within the ITZ has also been studied by using finite element analysis for comparison purposes. Finite element analysis was used to evaluate the degree of correctness and precision of the proposed ITZ model. This paper discusses the use of the cutoff bar in finite element modeling, representing the ITZ of a single aggregate (inclusion) in a mortar matrix. Experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of the ITZ model on the single inclusion specimen's strength. The model was tested for some inclusions that varied in dimension and shape. The effect of inclusion shape on the stress concentrations of the specimens was examined. The aim of this research work is to propose a simple yet accurate ITZ model to be used in the commercially available finite element software packages.

This study was undertaken to know the difference that margin fittness in metal bond porcelain crown. When we use porcelain precious metal and non-precious metal as porcelain-fused metal, the results were as following. 1. The precious metal was showed best result in margin fittness and shade. 2. The non-precious metals were showed good results, especially Gemini II was excellent, but that was not good than precious metal. 3. 10k. gold plating on non-precious metal cap showed same result as nonprecious metal in margin fittness, and not good in shade. 4. When we use the non-precious metals at upper part of crown, and using precious metal in 2mm cervical portion, the margin fittness were very good, and the results same as full veneer precious metal.

Small-scale models of reinforced concrete beam-column joints and anchorage-bond specimens were subjected to large cyclic displacements at two rates. To assess damage, free vibration tests were conducted. The reliability of the modeling techniques was established by comparison of the results for the slower rate with those obtained from the full-scale tests on prototype. The higher rate of loading caused a greater damage than that at the slower rate. This was evidenced by the measurements of the stiffness obtained from the free-vibration test. The relatively greater extent of damage appears to result from the different bond behavior at different rates of loading.

The crystal structure of diflunisal, 2',4'-difluoro-4-hydroxy-3-biphenyl-carboxylic acid, was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The compound was recrystallized from a mixture of acetone and water in monoclinic, space group C2/c, with $a\;=\;34.666(6),\;b\;=\;3.743(1),\;c\;=\;20.737(4)\;{\AA},\;{\beta}=\;110.57(2)^{\circ}$, and Z = 8. The calculated density is $1.324\;g/cm^3$. The structure was solved by the direct method and refined by full matrix least-squares procedure to the final R value of 0.045 for 1299 observed reflections. It was found that the molecules in the crystal are partially disordered, that is, the two equivalent conformers $(180^{\circ}$ rotated ones through C(1)-C(7)) are packed alternatively without regular symmetry or sequence. The two phenyl rings of the biphenyl group is tilted to each other by the dihedral angle of $43.3^{\circ}$. The carboxyl group at the salicylic moiety is just coplanar to the phenyl ring, and the planarity of this salicylic moiety is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond of O(3)-H(O3) O(2). The molecules are dimerized through the intermolecular hydrogen bonds at the carboxyl group in the crystal.

Shear tests are performed on four full-scale 12.5 m proto-type models, "least depth double tee," which are resulted from the optimization process. Domestic superimposed live load regulation, domestic material properties which is available to product. Korean building code requirements, construction environments and economy are considered as the main factors to establish the process. All of the specimens tested fully comply with the shear strength requirements as specified by ACI 318-95. The research has shown following results. 1) The development length requirement of ACI 318-95 does not seem a good predictor for the estimation of bond failure in a beam with the strands below the supports. 2) The load required for the first initial coner cracking in the dap end and first web shear cracking does not seem to have any relation with the dimension and shear strength of the section in the test beams. 3) The strand slip has a direct relationship with the web shear cracking. However, the coner cracking in the dap end does not give any help for the slip in anchorage. 4) Use of whole area for bearing steel at the bottom of dap end is desired for safe bearing pressure design in the precast prestressed double tee beams. 5) The deflection of beam influences directly on the amount of strand slip at the anchorage after initiation of it, and relationship between them are very linear.
