The purpose of this study was to compare the microleakage of the composite resin cores according to surface treatment, dentin bonding agents, and thermocycling. For this study, 120 extracted premolar teeth were used. Flat occlusal surfaces were prepared with diamond disk, and treated with air-abrasion, acid-etching, combination. The composite resin core was built with Z-100 after application of Scotchbond Multi-Purpose and All-Bond 2. Prepared specimens were thermocycled for 2,000 cycles. Specimens were immersed in 1% methylene blue solution for 24hours at $37^{\circ}C$. The microleakage was measured with a inverted metallurgical microscope(BHS313, Olympus, Japan). The following conclusions were drawn from this study: 1. The microleakages in the groups treated with air-abrasion and with acid etching were greater than that of the groups treated with combination method before thermocycling(p<0.05), the microleakages of the groups treated with air-abrasion were greater than that of the groups treated with acid-etching and combination method after thermocycling(p<0.05) 2. There were no significant difference between groups using Scotchbond Multi-Purpose and the groups using All-Bond 2. 3. Thermocycling didn't affect the change of microleakage in all cases.

Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/epoxy composites are prepared by a vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) method. The mechanical properties, fracture surface morphologies, and thermal stabilities of these nanocomposites are evaluated for epoxy resins with various amounts of MWCNTs. Composites consisting of different amounts of MWCNTs displayed an increase of the work of adhesion between the MWCNTs and the matrix, which improved both the tensile and impact strengths of the composites. The tensile and impact strengths of the MWCNT/epoxy composite improved by 59 and 562% with 0.3 phr of MWCNTs, respectively, compared to the epoxy composite without MWCNTs. Thermal stability of the 0.3 phr MWCNT/epoxy composite increased compared to other epoxy composites with MWCNTs. The enhancement of the mechanical and thermal properties of the MWCNT/epoxy nanocomposites is attributed to improved dispersibility and strong interfacial interaction between the MWCNTs and the epoxy in the composites prepared by VARTM.

In response to the sustainability requirements set in the EU Commission's "Green Deal" towards reduction of the greenhouse gas emissions, it is estimated that the structural design for deconstruction is going to contribute considerably to the sustainable development of the built environment. The demountability of multi-material structural systems basically depends on the shear connectors used in the structural system. This paper focuses on a type of demountable injected shear connector with an injected steel-reinforced resin (iSRR) which consists of spherical steel particles embedded in a resin. Its application to steel-to-concrete and steel-to-Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) decks is presented along with its benefits. In parallel, an overview of the experimental and numerical research on the evaluation of the mechanical properties of the demountable bolted connectors with iSRR is discussed. Last, detailed finite element (FE) models and a parametric study are performed to quantify the confinement level of the SRR material influenced by the oversized hole diameter.

In the case of CAD/CAM ceramic inlay restorations, if isthmus width is widened too much, it may cause fracture of remaining tooth structure or loss of bonding at the luting interface because of excessive displacement of buccal or lingual cusps under occlusal loads. So to clarify the criterior of widening isthmus width, this study was designed to test the tensile bond strength and bond failure mode between dentin and ceramic cemented with luting composite resin cements. Cylindrical ceramic blocks(Vita Cerec Mark II, d=4mm) were bonded to buccal dentin of 40 freshly extracted third molars with 4 luting composite resin cements(group1 : Scotchbond Resin Cement/Scotchbond Multi-Purpose, group2 : Duolink Resin Cement/ All-Bond 2, group3: Bistite Resin Cement/Ceramics Primer, and group4:Superbond C&B). Tensile bond test was done under universal testing machine using bonding and measuring alignment blocks(${\phi}ilo$ & Urn, 1992). After immersion of fractured samples into 1 % methylene blue for 24 hours, failure mode was analysed under stereomicroscope and SEM. Results: The tensile bond strength of goup 1, 2 & 4 was $13.97{\pm}2.90$ MPa, $16.49{\pm}3.90$ MPa and $16.l7{\pm}4.32$ MPa, respectively. There was no statistical differences(p>0.05). But, group 3 showed significantly lower bond stregnth($5.98{\pm}1.l7$ MPa, p<0.05). In almost all samples, adhesive fractures between dentin and resin cements were observed. But, in group 1, 2 & 4, as bond strength increased, cohesive fracture within resin cement was observed simultaneously. And, in group 3, as bond strength decreased, cohesive fracture between hybrid layer and composite resin cement was also observed. Cohesive fracture within dentin and porcelain adhesive fracture were not observed. In conclusion, although adhesive cements were used in CAD/CAM -fabricated ceramic inlay restorations, the conservative priciples of cavity preparation must be obligated.

Clear thermoplastic retainers have been widely used in daily orthodontics; however, they have inherent limitations associated with thermoplastic polymer materials such as dimensional instability, low strength, and poor wear resistance. To solve these problems, we developed a new type of clear orthodontic retainer that incorporates multi-layer hybrid materials. It consists of three layers; an outer polyethylenterephthalate glycol modified (PETG) hard-type polymer, a middle thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) soft-type polymer, and an inner reinforced resin core. The resin core improves wear resistance and mechanical strength, which prevent unwanted distortion of the bucco-palatal wall of the retainer. The TPU layer absorbs impact and the PETG layer has good formability, optical qualities, fatigue resistance, and dimensional stability, which contributes to increased support from the mandibular dentition, and helps maintain the archform. This new type of vacuum-formed retainer showed improved mechanical strength and rate of water absorption.

This manuscript presents an experimental investigation on the effect of Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) addition on the tensile, flexural and impact properties of woven Kevlar fabric reinforced epoxy composites. MWCNTs were dispersed in the epoxy resin by sonication technique and the samples were fabricated by hand layup laminating procedure. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the microstructure of produced samples. The effects of adding small amounts (${\leq}1%$) of MWCNT on the tensile, flexural and impact (Izod) behaviors of laminated composites were analyzed. Results revealed that MWCNTs enhanced the Young's modulus up to 20%, bending modulus up to 40%, and impact strength up to 45% in comparison with woven Kevlar fabric/epoxy composites. It was found that the maximum improvements in mechanical properties were happened for 0.5 wt.% MWCNT.

A kind of modified epoxy resin sheet molding compounds of the impeller has been designed. Through the test, the non-metal impeller has a better environmental aging performance, but must do the waterproof processing design. In order to improve the stability of the impeller vibration design, the influence of uncertainty factors is considered, and a multi-objective robust optimization method is proposed to reduce the weight of the impeller. Firstly, based on the fluid-structure interaction, the analysis model of the impeller vibration is constructed. Secondly, the optimal approximate model of the impeller is constructed by using the Latin hypercube and radial basis function, and the fitting and optimization accuracy of the approximate model is improved by increasing the sample points. Finally, the micro multi-objective genetic algorithm is applied to the robust optimization of approximate model, and the Monte Carlo simulation and Sobol sampling techniques are used for reliability analysis. By comparing the results of the deterministic, different sigma levels and different materials, the multi-objective optimization of the SMC molding impeller can meet the requirements of engineering stability and lightweight. And the effectiveness of the proposed multi-objective robust optimization method is verified by the error analysis. After the SMC molding and the robust optimization of the impeller, the optimized rate reached 42.5%, which greatly improved the economic benefit, and greatly reduce the vibration of the ventilation system.

모든 유치에 알맞은 색조의 복합레진을 수복하는 것은 소아치과 의사에게 큰 어려움이다. 최근 개발된 단일 색조 복합레진은 구조색 현상을 기반으로 주변 치질과 유사한 색상을 나타낼 수 있다. 이 연구는 단일 색조 복합레진의 유치에서의 색조 적응력(Color adjustment potential, CAP)을 일반적인 다색조 복합레진과 비교하여 평가하기 위한 연구이다. 한 개의 단일 색조 복합레진과 두 개의 다색조 복합레진이 연구에 포함되었다. Single, dual 두 종류의 표본이 제작되어 평가되었다. Single 표본은 실험군 레진을 이용하여 제2유구치 인공치를 복제하여 제작하였다. Dual 표본은 발거된 제2유구치 협면에 와동을 형성한 뒤 실험군 레진을 수복하여 제작하였다. 측색계를 이용하여 발거된 치아 및 제작된 표본의 L^*, a^*, b^* 값을 측정하였다. Single, dual 표본에 대한 ΔE_ab^* 값과 CAP 값의 평균을 계산하였으며 Bonferroni 사후 분석을 이용하여 실험군 레진 간의 통계적 유의성을 확인하였다. 실험 결과 단일 색조 복합레진이 다른 복합레진들에 비해 유의하게 큰 ΔE_Single 값을 나타내었다(p < 0.0167). 모든 실험군 레진 간 유의한 ΔE_Dual 값의 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 단일 색조 복합레진은 다른 다색조 복합레진들과 비교 시 가장 높은 CAP 값을 나타내었다. 단일 색조 복합레진은 제2유구치에서 다른 다색조 복합레진에 비해 준수한 색조 적응력을 나타내었다. 단일 색조 복합레진은 제2유구치에서 색조 선택 과정을 단순화하면서 심미적인 수복물을 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
