STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Detachment of the magnetic assembly from the denture base has been a problem in magnetic overdenture patients. PURPOSE: The objectives of this study were to compare the dislodging force by the fixing materials and the designs of the magnetic assembly, and to compare the effect between the fixing materials and the designs of the magnetic assembly. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two fixing materials, Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$ and Super-$Bond^{(R)}$ C&$B^{(R)}$ and two types of magnetic assembly designed with or without wing were used. Each magnetic assembly was fixed in the chamber of the denture base resin block ($Lucitone^{(R)}$199) with each fixing material respectively. These specimens were thermocycled 2,000 cycles in the water held at $4^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ with a dwell time of 1 min each time. Each specimen was seated in a testing jig and then a push-out test was performed with a universal testing machine at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min to measure the maximum dislodging forces. RESULTS: Comparing the fixing materials, Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ showed superior dislodging force than Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$. Comparing the design of the magnetic assemblies, the wing design magnetic assembly showed better dislodging force. Combination of the Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ as a fixing material and wing design magnetic assembly revealed a greatest dislodging force. The kind of fixing material was more influential than the type of magnetic assembly. CONCLUSION: The dislodging force of Super-Bond C&$B^{(R)}$ was significantly higher than Jet denture repair $acrylic^{(R)}$. And the dislodging force of magnetic assembly which have wing design was significantly higher than magnetic assembly which have no wing design.

이 연구에서는 다양한 콘크리트를 갖는 전단계면에서의 전단마찰거동에 대한 횡보강근 및 압축응력의 영향을 평가하였다. 12개 직접전단실험체로부터 균열진전, 전단하중-상대 미끄러짐 관계, 균열발생시 전단응력, 최대전단내력 및 횡보강근의 전단저항력 등이 측정되었다. 실험결과 동일 전단하중에서 상대 미끄러짐 제어에 대한 횡보강근 배근형상 및 콘크리트 압축강도의 영향은 미미하였다. 작용 압축응력의 증가와 함께 콘크리트의 전단전달력을 증가하는 반면, 횡보강근의 전단전달력은 감소하였는데, 횡보강근의 전단저항은 배근형태에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다. AASHTO-LRFD, Mattock 및 Hwang and Yang의 모델은 콘크리트의 전단마찰내력을 과소평가하였다. 반면, Hwang and Yang의 모델은 실험결과와의 비교에 대한 평균과 표준편차 값이 각각 1.02과 0.23으로서 기존 모델에 비해 다양한 변수의 영향을 적절히 고려하면서 콘크리트의 전단마찰내력을 잘 예측하였다.

Contemporary design and construction of steel-concrete composite structures employs the use of prefabricated concrete elements and demountable shear connectors in order to reduce the construction time and costs and enable dismantling of elements for their potential reuse at the end of life of buildings. Bolted shear connector with mechanical coupler is presented in this paper. The connector is assembled from mechanical coupler and rebar anchor, embedded in concrete, and steel bolt, used for connecting steel to concrete members. The behaviour and ultimate resistance of bolted connector with mechanical coupler in wide and narrow members were analysed based on push-out tests and FE analyses conducted in Abaqus software, with focus on concrete edge breakout and bolt shear failure modes. The effect of concrete strength, concrete edge distance and diameter and strength of bolts on failure modes and shear resistance was analysed. It was demonstrated that premature failure by breakout of concrete edge occurs when connectors are located 100 mm or closer from the edge in low-strength and normal-strength reinforced concrete. Furthermore, the paper presents a relatively simple model for hand calculation of concrete edge breakout resistance when bolted connectors with mechanical coupler are used. The model is based on the modification of prediction model used for cast-in and post-installed anchors loaded parallel to the edge, by implementing equivalent influence length of connector with variable diameter. Good agreement with test and FE results was obtained, thus confirming the validity of the proposed method.

A novel optical design for high resolution, large field of view (FOV) and multispectral remote sensing is presented. An f/7.3 Korsch and two f/17.9 Cook three-mirror optical systems are integrated by sharing the primary and secondary mirrors, bias of the FOV, decentering of the apertures and reasonable structure arrangement. The aperture stop of the Korsch system is located on the primary mirror, while those of the Cook systems are on the exit pupils. High resolution image with spectral coverage from visible to near-infrared (NIR) can be acquired through the Korsch system with a focal length of 14 m, while wide-field imaging is accomplished by the two Cook systems whose focal lengths are both 13.24 m. The full FOV is 4°×0.13°, a coverage width of 34.9 km at the altitude of 500 km can then be acquired by push-broom imaging. To facilitate controlling the stray light, the intermediate images and the real exit pupils are spatially available. After optimization, a near diffraction-limited performance and a compact optical package are achieved. The sharing of the on-axis primary and secondary mirrors reduces the cost of fabrication, test, and manufacture effectively. Besides, the two tertiary mirrors of the Cook systems possess the same parameters, further cutting down the cost.

PURPOSE. Numerous methods were used to etch the fiber posts to improve its bonding to root canal dentin. Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy of 37% phosphoric acid in etching fiber posts in comparison with 24% hydrogen peroxide. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Ninety human maxillary central incisors were taken and post space preparation was done. Ninety fiber posts were taken and divided into three groups (n=30) based on the surface treatment they received ($H_3PO_4$, $H_2O_2$, distilled water) and each group was further divided (n=10) based on the time period of application (15 seconds, 30 seconds, 60 seconds). All the posts were luted into canals using Rely X UniCem-2. Each tooth was then sectioned into six slices and subjected to push out test. Data obtained was subjected to statistical analysis at P<.05. The surface topography was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS. Highest bond strength values were noted in 15 seconds etched phosphoric acid group and 60 seconds etched hydrogen peroxide group with no significant difference between two groups. Surface topography revealed complete epoxy layer removal with no damage to its structural integrity in those groups. CONCLUSION. $H_3PO_4$ etching for a period of 15 seconds is an effective alternative in improving the adhesion of fiber post to root dentin.

현재 강재와 콘크리트를 합성화 시키는 방법으로 대표적인 것이 스터드를 이용하는 것이다. 그러나 이 방법을 강합성 기둥에 적용할 경우에 용접량이 많아져 이로 인하여 강재의 성능이 변하여 국부좌굴로 유도될 가능성이 매우 크다. 외부가 구속된 CFT 부재나 내부 구속 중공 CFT 부재 그리고 내부가 강관으로 내부 구속 중공 RC 부재에 적용할 경우에 합성 거더에 비하여 강재와 콘크리트가 분리되려는 인발력 대신 슬립에 의한 분리현상이 더 크게 발생한다. 이렇기 때문에 스터드의 높이 보다는 콘크리트와 강재가 합성되는 면적을 넓혀주는 것이 더 필요하다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여 일정부분 강관에 용접을 하여 부착을 하고 ㄷ자 형으로 제작된 슬립앵커의 철근이 콘크리트 속에 삽입되어 강재와 콘크리트의 일체 거동성을 높였다. 이러한 방법의 경우에는 곡률을 가진 강구조물 등에 적용될 경우 큰 효과를 발휘할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 제안된 슬립앵커를 H빔에 설치를 하여 축하중을 가하는 Push-over Test를 통하여 거동 특성을 분석하였다.

Process of screw-pumping system (SPS) was optimized for mass production of encapsulated bifidus. SPS entrapment device was composed of feeding component, with optimized nozzle size and length of 18G (0.91 cm) and 4 mm, respectively, screw pump, and 37-multi-nozzle. Screw component had five wing turns [radius (r)=26 to 15 mm] from top to bottom of axis at 78-degree angle from middle of the screw, and two wings were positioned at screw edge to push materials toward nozzle. For nozzle component, 37 nozzles were attached to 20-mm round plate. Air compressor was attached to SPS to increase productivity of encapsulated bifidus. This system could be operated with highly viscous (more than 300 cp) materials, and productivity was higher than $1128\;{\pm}\;30\;beads/min$. Viability of encapsulated bifidus was $5.45\;{\times}\;10^8\;cfu$/bead, which is superior to that of encapsulated bifidus produced by other methods ($2.51{\times}10^8\;cfu$/bead). Average diameter of produced beads was $2.048\;{\pm}\;0.003\;mm$. Survival rate of SPS-produced encapsulated bifidus was 90% for Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem test and 88% in fermented milk (for 14 days). These results show SPS is effective for use in development of economical system for mass production of viable encapsulated bifidus.

프리스트레스트 중공(PHC) 슬래브는 장경간에 적합하도록 경량화된 효율적인 프리캐스트 부재이며, 국내 외에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 특히, 국내에서는 현장타설콘크리트와 같이 사용되는 합성슬래브 형태로 주로 적용되고 있다. 그러나, 압출성형방식으로 제작되는 PHC 슬래브 부재는 매우 낮은 슬럼프의 콘크리트로 제작되어 타설 직후에도 표면경도가 높기 때문에 계면의 거친면 처리 및 전단연결재 배치가 어려운 단점이 있다. 이 연구에서는 PHC slab 부재와 토핑콘크리트 사이의 합성성능을 고찰하기 위하여 다양한 계면상태를 변수로 직접전단실험을 수행하였으며, 기존 실험결과를 수집하여 국내 외 수평전단강도 설계기준을 평가하였다.

Objectives: It is known that bioactive materials interact with the dentin to undergo biomineralization. The exact role of moisture in this interaction is unknown. Here, we investigate the effects of dentin moisture conditions on the dislocation resistance of two bioactive root canal sealers (MTA Fillapex [Angelus Solucoes Odontologicas] and GuttaFlow BioSeal [Colténe/Whaledent AG]) at 3 weeks and 3 months after obturation. Materials and Methods: Mandibular premolars (n = 120) were prepared and randomly divided into 3 groups based on the dentin condition: group 1, dry dentin; group 2, moist dentin; group 3, wet dentin. Each group was divided into 2 subgroups for root canal filling: MTA Fillapex and GuttaFlow BioSeal. Dislocation resistance was evaluated by measuring the push-out bond strength at 3 weeks and 3 months. Failure modes were examined under a stereomicroscope. Data were statistically analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test with a significance level of 5%. Results: Moist dentin resulted in higher bond strength values for both materials at both time points. This was significantly higher than wet and dry dentin for both the sealers at the 3 months (p < 0.05), while at 3 weeks it was significant only for GuttaFlow Bioseal. The different moisture conditions demonstrated similar trends in their effects on the dislocation resistance of the 2 root canal sealers. Conclusions: The dentin moisture conditions had a significant impact on its interaction with the bioactive materials tested. Maintaining moist dentin, but not dry or wet dentin, may be advantageous before the filling root canals with bioactive sealers.
