This study was performed to investigate the effect of root canal shaping techniques on the change of the shape of prepared root canal. 40 mesiobuccal canals of recently extracted mandibular 1st and 2nd molars were divided into 4 groups and shaped by step-down/balanced force technique, step-down/step-back technique, step-back technique and conventional technique respectively. The change of the shape of root canal was traced by superimposing the radiographs obtained before and after shaping of each root canal. The results were as follows. 1. By the experimented techniques except conventional technique, the root canals were more shaped in convex side of apical area and in concave side of most curved and coronal area than in the other sides(P<0.05). By conventional technique, the root canals were more shaped in convex side than in convave side from apex to orifice(P<0.05). 2. By step-down/balanced force technique, the cancave sides at C and D points of proximal view and C point of clinical view were more shaped than the convex side(P<0.05). Through the entire canal, the concave side was more shaped than the convex side in proximal view(P<0.01). But there was no statistical difference between both sides in clinical view. 3. By step-down/step-back technique, the change of root canal shape was not statistically different in concave and convex sides at each point of both views(P>0.05). And through the entire canal in proximal view, there was no statistical difference in shaping percentage between both sides. But through the entire canal in clinical view, the concave side was more shaped than the convex side(P<0.1). 4. By step-back technique, the convex side at B point of clinical more shaped than the other sides(P<0.05). Through the entire canal in proximal and clinical views, there was no statistical difference in shaping percentage between both sides. 5. Comparing the total shaping percentage among techniques, that in conventional technique was the greatest numerically, and followed by the percentages in step-down/step-back, step-down/balanced force and step-back technique. But, in proximal view, shaping percentages were not statistically different among techniques(P>0.05, ANOVA test). In clinical view, shaping percentages in step-back and conventional techniques were statistically different(P<0.01, ANOVA test). * Proximal view: radiograph taken in mesiodistal direction. * Clincal view: radiograph taken in faciolingual direction. A point : 1mm point from radiographic apex B point : center point between A and C points C point : most curved point of root canal D point : center point between C point and canal oriffice.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the changes in root canal configuration with canal instrumentation using different file types and techniques and to investigate most appropriate instrumentation technique in maintaining the original canal configuration with different file types. Fifty curved mesiobuccal or distobuccal canals of extracted human maxillary molar teeth were instrumented using a step-back technique with stainless steel K-files or nickel-titanium K-files, a crown-down pressureless technique with stainless steel K-files or nickel-titanium K-files and nickel-titanium engine-driven files. Radiographs were taken before and after instrumentation using a specially designed device that allowed for the pre-and postinstrumentation canals to be taken with the same X-ray angulation. Magnified X-ray images on a magnifier screen were traced and post instrumentation canal images were compared with the preinstrumentation ones. Changes in canal curvature and the incidence of procedural accidents were analyzed. The results were as follows : Crown-down pressureless technique with nickel-titanium K-files and nickel-titanium engine-driven filing produced no significant changes in canal curvature (p>0.05), while the step-back technique with stainless steel K-files or nickel-titanium K-files (p<0.01) and the crown-down pressureless technique with stainless steel K-files (p<0.05) produced significant changes. With nickel-titanium K-file, crown-down pressureless technique produced significantly less changes in canal curvature than step-back technique (p<0.05), while there was no significant difference between techniques with stainless steel K-files (p>0.05). File types exerted no significant influences in the changes of canal curvature both in the step-back technique and crown-down pressureless technique (0>0.05). Regardless of the file types used, step-back technique produced more procedural accidents such as ledge or elbow formation, apical zipping and apical transportation than the crowndown pressureless technique and nickel-titanium engine-driven filing. Both with stainless steel K-files and with nickel-titanium K-files, the incidence of apical extrusion of canal debris was higher in step-back technique than in crown-down pressureless technique.

근관 형성중 잔사의 치근단 정출은 치근단 조직의 반응을 유발하여 동통과 부종을 일으키며 치유를 지연시킬 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 수종의 기구와 방법을 사용하여 근관을 형성하고 이에 따른 근관 잔사의 치근단 정출량을 비교함으로써 잔사의 정출을 최소화 할 수 있는 기구 조작법을 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 120개의 발거된 사람의 하악 절치에서 근관형성중 치근단으로 정출되는 잔사의 양을 비교하였다. 첫 번째 실험에서는 40개의 치아를 10개씩 4군으로 나누어 2.52% 치아염소산나트륨용액으로 근관을 세척하면서 다음의 4방법 중 하나를 이용하여 근관을 형성하였다. 수동 스테인레스 스틸 K-화일을 이용하여 step-back technique, crown-down pressureless technique으로 근관을 형성하였고 전동 니켈 티타늄 기구로는 Quantec SC series 2000과 Profile .04 taper series 29를 이용하여 근관을 형성하였다. 두 번째 실험에서는 80개의 치아를 16개씩 5군으로 나누고 근관 세척에 의한 잔사의 치근단 정출 영향을 배제하고자 근관 세척을 시행하지 않고 근관을 형성하였다. 이 때에는 첫 번째 실험의 방법중 Quantec SC series 2000 대신에 Quantec SC 및 Quantec LX를 이용하여 근관을 형성하였고 나머지는 첫 번째 실험과 동일하게 시행하였다. 각 치아로부터 정출되는 잔사를 용기에 모아 24 시간동안 건조시킨 후 전자 저울로 무게를 측정, 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 근관 세척을 시행한 경우와 시행하지 않은 경우 공히 step-back technique을 사용한 군에서는 다른 군에 비해 현저히 많은 량의 치근단 정출 잔사가 나타났다. 그러나, crown-down technique을 이용하여 근관 형성한 군과 수종의 Ni-Ti 파일을 이용하여 전동으로 근관 형성한 군들 사이에는 정출 잔사량에 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 따라서, 본 실험에 사용된 수동 및 전동 기구의 종류는 근관 잔사의 치근단 정출에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 생각되며, 근관잔사의 치근단 정출을 최소화하기 위해서는 수동 및 전동 기구 공히 step-back 방법에 의한 filing 동작보다는 crown-down technique의 reaming 동작을 사용하여 근관을 형성하는 것이 바람직하다고 사료된다.

구조물의 형상 변화를 연속적으로 고려할 수 있는 유한요소법 원리에 기초하여 탄성지반내에 단계적 터널굴착시 임의의 굴착단계에서 발생한 증분변위와 굴착전 암반내에 존재하는 초기응력의 크기가 선형관계에 있음을 유도하였다. 즉, 총변위가 아닌 임의 단계에서 계측된 증분변위만으로 탄성지반내 초기음력의 역산이 가능함을 이론적으로 증명하였다. 이러한 이론적 관계식에 기초하여 다단계 터널굴착시 계측된 증분변위를 이용하여 초기응력을 역산할 수 있는 역해석 프로그램을 작성하였다. 간단한 예제를 통하여 구성한 프로그램의 정확성과 현장 적용 가능성을 검토하였다.

Welding is the most convenient method for fabricating steel materials to build ships and of shore structures. However, welding using high heat processes inevitably produces welding displacements on welded structures. To mitigate these, heavy industries introduce various welding techniques such as back-step welding and skip-step welding. These techniques effect on the change of the distribution of high heat on welded structures, leading to a reduction of welding displacements. In the present study, various cases using different and newly introduced welding techniques are numerically simulated to ascertain the most efficient technique to minimize welding displacements. A numerical simulation using a finite element method based on the inherent strain, interface element and multi-point constraint function is introduced herein. Based on several simulation results, the optimal welding technique for minimizing welding displacements to build a general ship grillage structure is finally proposed.

In this study a truss model is used for the geometrically nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of a thin shallow arch subject to snap-through. Thanks to the very simple geometry of a truss, the equilibrium conditions can be easily written and the global stiffness matrix can be easily updated with respect to the deformed structure, within each step of the analysis. A very coarse discretization is applied; so, in a very simple way, the high frequency modes are suppressed from the beginning and there is no need to develop a complicated reduced-order technique. Two short computer programs have been developed for the geometrically nonlinear static analysis by displacement control of a plane truss model of a structure as well as for its dynamic analysis by the step-by-step time integration algorithm of trapezoidal rule, combined with a predictor-corrector technique. These two short, fully documented computer programs are applied on the geometrically nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of a specific thin shallow arch subject to snap-through.
