Plastic hardener and softener based ultrasound phantoms were made in various constitutions and their acoustic properties were measured. Speed of sound is approximately $1.4\;mm/{\mu}sec$ in all the phantoms, which is about 7% less than that of in soft tissue. Attenuation coefficient is strongly dependent on the ratio between hardener and softener. In order to achieve the tissue level attenuation (0.5 dB/cm/MHz), 60% of hardener or less is required. The synthesized phantoms can be preserved for more than 6 months without structural degradation.

초음파 의료용 탄성 영상 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위한 인체 조직 모사 팬텀을 제작하였다. 인체에서 종양이나 암 조직은 주위의 정상조직보다 단단한 특성을 가진다. 이러한 조직의 단단함을 영상화하는 기법이 탄성 영상 기법이다. 인체의 병변 조직의 기계적인 특성을 모사하기 위하여 플라스틱 경화제와 연화제를 이용하여 탄성도가 다른 균일 탄성 팬텀을 제작하였다. 제작된 균일 탄성 팬텀은 시료의 비율에 따라 $11.1{\sim}79.6$ kPa 범위의 탄성계수 값을 얻었다. 이를 바탕으로 외부 매질과 내부 매질의 탄성계수 차이가 5배와 7배 정도인 초음파 병변 모사 팬텀을 제작하여 탄성 영상을 획득하였다. 본 논문에서는 제작된 플라스틱 기반의 탄성 팬텀이 인체의 탄성 특성을 모사하는 탄성 팬텀으로서 유용함을 확인하였다.

방사선량 측정을 위하여 섬광체와 광섬유를 이용한 원격 측정용 센서를 개발하였다. 유리 광섬유와 상용화된 플라스틱섬광체로 원거리 측정 가능성을 시험하였고, 에폭시 수지로 자체 개발한 섬광검출소재로 방사선 측정센서로써의 성능을 평가하였다. 에폭시 수지와 유기섬광물질의 배합별 물질 특성을 측정하여 최적의 조건을 도출하였다. 광섬유와 섬광체를 연결할 때, 불완전한 접속으로 인한 광 손실을 줄이기 위하여 섬광검출소재 제조 과정 중 소재내로 광섬유를 삽입하여 일체형으로 센서를 제조하였다. 일체형 센서는 유리광섬유의 단점을 보완하여 플라스틱 광섬유를 적용하였으며, 방사선 반응 체적별 검출효율을 평가하기 위하여 검출소재 밑단으로부터 일정 거리의 광섬유를 배치하여 측정하였다. 개발한 방사선 검출용 센서는 오염도 원거리 측정뿐만 아니라 측정센서로써의 적용도 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

섬유강화플라스틱(Fiber-reinforced plastic, FRP)은 복합재료 보트를 만드는 데 주 구조물로 사용되고 그것들 대부분은 몰드에서 만들어진다. 이러한 제품들은 몰드에서 분리될 때나 높은 온도의 환경에서 변형이 생긴다. 그러므로 다양한 제작 및 작동 조건에서 적층복합재료 구조물의 변형에 대한 실험적 조사 및 평가는 필수적이다. 불포화 폴리에스테르수지와 유리섬유를 이용하여 L-shape과 Curve-shape 시편을 제작하였다. 경화제 비율과 제작온도, 네 가지 작동온도가 입력인자(독립변수)로 사용되었고 출력인자는 시편에서 측정되는 변형이다. 결과로부터 경화제 비율이 높을수록 또한 제작온도가 높을수록 변형이 작게 생김을 알 수 있었다. 작동온도가 상승할 때 초기 변형 값에 따라 큰 변화를 보였다. 또한 변형 값이나 입력인자들은 회귀 방정식으로부터 예측할 수 있었다.

Diseases caused by indurate tissues of the internal organs are liver cirrhosis and abdominal sclerosis. The cause of chronic gastro-intestinal disease is a digestive system disorder and a defecation disorder. They impede peristaltic movement and digestive system with the symptom that indurate tissues. The purpose of the present study was to determine the disease grade quantitatively by measuring an indurated standard of tissues and organs. For the measurement of elasticity, we designed the system that measure the displacement of the substance and approved pressure using ultrasound transducer. For verification of developed system, we compared elasticity as results of experiment between the developed system and public elasticity measurement machine at individual plastic phantoms made by plastic hardener and softener. Elasticity of the plastic phantoms is averagely 0.007MPa lower measured by developed system than Micro-indenter, and less than 10% errors. Comparing with economical value and accuracy between developed system and Micro-indenter, the system is significant of measurement for tissue elasticity. Thus, it is possible to measure a elasticity at human tissue and organ. A chronic gastro-disease as well as grade could be decided objective validity using this system.

Recently Digital TV industry has drastically been moving the illuminating system, which causes an obvious product change from PDP and LCD to LED model to provide high-definition image. Due to strong competition in the digital industry, TV manufacturers make a great efforts to reduce production cost by using low-priced materials such as steels instead of aluminum and plastic etc. In this paper we have developed a new low-priced electrogalvanized steel sheet, which has a black resin composite layer, to substitute conventional high-priced PCM steel and plastic mold for rear cover panel in the digital TV. The black resin composite was prepared by mechanical dispersion of the mixture solution that consists of high solid polyester resin, melamine hardener, black pigment, micronized silica paste, polyacrylate texturing particle and miscellaneous additives. The composite solution was coated on the steel sheet using roll coater followed by induction furnace curing and cooling. Although the coated layer has a half thickness compared to the conventional PCM steels having $23{\mu}m$ thickness, it exhibits excellent quality for the usage of rear cover panel. The new steel sheet was applied to test products to get quality certification from worldwide electronic appliance customers. Detailed discussion provides in this paper including preparation of composite solution, roll coating technology, induction curing technology and quality evaluation from customers.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the magnitude and distribution of stress using a photoelastic model from a distal extension removable partial dentures with three kinds of mandibular major connectors, that is, lingual bar, linguoplate, and swing-lock attachment. A photoelastic model was made of the epoxy resin(PC-1) and hardener(PCH-1) and coated with plastic cement-1 (PC-1) at the lingual surface of the epoxy model and set with three kinds of chrome-cobalt removable partial dentures. A bilateral vertical load of 15kg to the middle portion of the metal bar crossing both the first molars of the right and the left, and a unilateral vertical load of 12.5kg to the right first molar were applied with the use of specially designed loading device and the reflective circular polariscope was used to analyze the photoelastic model under each condition. The following results were obtained : 1. When the bilateral vertical load was applied, the magnitude and distribution of the stress concentration of the edentulous area and the terminal abutment or adjacent teeth was in the order of lingual bar, linguoplate, swing-lock attachment. 2. When the unilateral vertical load was applied, the magnitude and distribution of the stress concentration of the edentulous area and the terminal abutment or adjacent teeth was in the order of lingual bar, linguoplate, swing-lock attachment. 3. When the unilateral vertical load was applied, the magnitude and distribution of the stress concentration of the termial abutment or adjacent teeth on the non-loaded side showed the least stress distribution in case of swing-lock attachment. 4. When the bilateral vertical load and the unilateral vertical load were applied the swing-lock attachment showed the mildest uniform stress distribution on the edentulous area and the alveolar bone around the abutment teeth.
