Statement of problem. One of the common problems of dental implant prosthesis is the loosening of the screw that connects each component, and this problem is more common in single implant-supported prostheses with external connection, and in molars. Purpose. The purposes of this study were: (1) to compare the initial abutment screw detorque values of the six different implant-abutment interface designs, (2) to compare the detorque values of the six different implant-abutment interface designs after cyclic loading, (3) to compare the detorque values of regular and wide diameter implants and (4) to compare the initial detorque values with the detorque values after cyclic loading. Material and methods. Six different implant-abutment connection systems were used. The cement retained abutment and titanium screw of each system were assembled and tightened to 32Ncm with digital torque gauge. After 10 minutes, initial detorque values were measured. The custom titanium crown were cemented temporarily and a cyclic sine curve load(20 to 320N, 14Hz) was applied. The detorque values were measured after cyclic loading of one million times by loading machine. One-way ANOVA test, scheffe’s test and Mann-Whitney U test were used. Results. The results were as follows : 1. The initial detorque values of six different implant-abutment connections were not significantly different(p>0.05). 2. The detorque values after one million dynamic cyclic loading were significantly different (p<0.05). 3. The SS-II regular and wide implant both recorded the higher detorque values than other groups after cyclic loading(p<0.05). 4. Of the wide implants, the initial detorque values of Avana Self Tapping Implant, MIS and Tapered Screw Vent, and the detorque values of MIS implant after cyclic loading were higher than their regular counterparts(p<0.05). 5. After cyclic loading, SS-II regular and wide implants showed higher detorque values than before(p<0.05).

To evaluate the bearing strength of red pine cross-laminated timber (CLT) with self-tapping screw (STS), which is widely used as a fastener for connection in CLT building, the bearing test was conducted. Accoring to the STS's diameters (8, 10, 12 mm), the bearing test specimens with half hole were manufactured. Bearing strength was compared and reviewed in consideration of the configuration in STS and the loading direction to the grain of red pine. As a result of the bearing test on the STS's diameter, the yield bearing load increases as the larger diameter of the STS in all directions of the red pine. The bearing strength of the thread part (thread + tip) was higher than the shank part (shank + shank cutter). In compared with the directions to the grain of red pine, the bearing strength of the cross section parallel to the loading direction was the highest, and the tangent section was the lowest bearing strength. The average bearing strength of the loading direction in parallel to the grain was 23.43 MPa, which was about 45% higher than the average 16.16 MPa in perpendicular to the grain. The predicted bearing strength calculated by Eurocode (EN) and Korean Building Code (KBC)'s equation was lower than the experimental value. It is nessesary to propose the new equations of bearing strength reflected the configuration information of STS.

탄소섬유 강화플라스틱은 비강도, 비강성이 크고, 높은 감쇠 특성과 중량감소 측면에서 우수한 특성을 나타낸다. 그러나 탄소섬유 강화플라스틱은 재료의 적층각 또는 적층 순서에 따라 기계적 특성 차이가 크다. 또한 인장과 굽힘과 같은 하중을 받을 때 금속과 달리 파괴 예측이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 최근 실생활에 밀접한 휴대용 스마트기기에 CFRP 적용을 위한 외부 충격에 정형화, 최적화 설계방식을 제시하고자 한다. CFRP 를 적층각도별 기계적 특성을 얻고자 인장실험을 하였고, 각 적층각도별 체결 특성을 얻고자 판에 탭 가공 후 토크 측정기를 이용하여 풀림 토크와 체결토크를 측정하였다. 위 두 실험에 비교 분석하여 최적의 조건을 찾고자 한다. 인장실험에서 적층각이 Woven 시편에서 강도와 강성 값이 가장 우수하였다. 또한 복합재료에서는 기지와 적층배열 때문에 풀림방지 코팅나사의 효과를 보기 힘들다. [$0_8/+45_2/-45_2/90_8$]s 에서 체결력이 가장 우수했으나, 인장응력이 상대적으로 낮았다. 핸드폰에 적용을 위해 인장 특성과 체결력을 모두 충족하는 최적의 시편은 Woven 이다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the machining accuracy and consistency of implant/abutment/screw combination or internal connection type. Material and methods: In this study, each two randomly selected internal implant fixtures from ITI, 3i, Avana, Bicon, Friadent, Astra, and Paragon system were used. Each abutment was connected to the implant with 32Ncm torque value using a digital torque controller or tapping. All samples were cross-sectioned with grinder-polisher unit (Omnilap 2000 SBT Inc) after embeded in liquid unsaturated polyester (Epovia, Cray Valley Inc). Then optical microscopic and scanning electron microscopic(SEM) evaluations of the implant-abutment interfaces were conducted to assess quality of fit between the mating components. Results : 1) Generally, the geometry of the internal connection system provided for a precision fit of the implant/abutment into interface. 2) The most precision fit of the implant/abutment interface was provided in the case of Bicon System which has not screw. 3) The fit of the implant/abutment interface was usually good in the case of ITI, 3I and Avana system and the amount of fit of the implant/abutment interface was similar to each other. 4) The fit of the implant/abutment interface was usually good in the case of Friadent, Astra and Paragon system. The case of Astra system with the inclined contacting surface had the most Intimate contact among them. 5) Amount of intimate contact in the abutment screw thread to the mating fixture was larger in assembly with two-piece type which is separated screw from abutment such as Friadent, Astra and Paragon system than in that with one-piece type which is not seperated screw from abutment such as ITI, 3I and Avana system. 6) Amount of contact in the screw and the screw seat of abutment was larger in assembly of Friadent system than in asembly of Astra system of Paragon system. Conclusion: Although a little variation in machining accuracy and consistency was noted in the samples, important features of all internal connection systems were the deep, internal implant-abutment connections which provides intimate contact with the implant walls to resist micro-movement, resulting in a strong stable interface. From the results of this study, further research of the stress distribution according to the design of internal connection system will be required.

이음새 없는 용기의 돔(Dome) 및 넥크(Neck) 부분 성형을 위해 일반적으로 열간 스피닝 공정이 이용되나, 대부분 현장 작업자들의 경험이나 시행착오에 의해 제작되고 있다. 이로 인하여 열간 스피닝 공정 시, 용기 넥크 부위의 저부부터 상부까지 내경이 동일한 성형을 요구하지만, 고속회전하는 롤러의 이동에 의하여 재료가 성형되는 스피닝 공정의 특성상, 돔 부분의 끝단부인 넥크 부위에서 내경이 벌어지는 형상오차의 문제가 발생한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 스피닝 가공 후, 탭핑 공정을 위하여 이종재료(Cr-13)가 보충된 나사산 모델에 대하여 이론적 해석 및 유한 요소 해석을 수행한 후, 해석결과를 토대로 작동환경하에서 용기의 구조안전성을 검증하였다.

In this study, an easily recyclable separable glued-laminated timber (GLT)-steel beam was developed, and a structural design method was presented. The GLT and steel were mechanically composited using self-tapping screws. The GLT-steel beam was designed to fail in the compression of GLT. The bending moment and load-carrying capacity of the GLT-steel beam were predicted based on composite beam theory and compared with experimental test data. As a result, the GLT-steel beam exhibited ductile behavior, and compression failure of GLT was observed. The screw connection showed no damage while the steel plate was extended. The load-carrying capacity of GLT after failure was similar to the load resistance predicted by the compressive strength of GLT and the tensile strength of steel. This indicates that the ductile behavior of the GLT-steel beam can be safely designed by the tensile strength (yield) of steel.

Currently, an EDM tapping procedure has comprised some parts of the engraving discharge process for the press die. Usually, tapping has been used in cases where we are unable to mechanically machine using steelwork processes due to an increase in the hardness of a material after heat treatment in relation to a design change or missing process. Here, we analyze the influence of discharge tap shape on discharge time, discharge current, and the number of repetition conditions when a cold-work tool steel (STD11) has been treated with a discharge tapped by a screw-shaped cu electrode. The most important influence on processing condition has been determined to be the number of discharge repetitions. As this number increases, the angle reduction of a thread closes to an angle of the electrode via a power generation reduction. The optimal combination of conditions has been determined to be three discharge repetitions, $180{\mu}s$ of discharge time (same as existing regulations), and 25.4A of peak current. A 0.2749db advantage has emerged after comparing between this combination of optimal conditions and the SN rate of existing regulations.

본 증례는 구순구개열 환자에서 상순의 반흔, 상악 잔존치조제의 과도한 흡수, 협소한 구개 및 상악골의 열성장을 동반한 3급 악간관계로 인해 통상의 가철성 국소의치 수복에 한계를 보이기 때문에 상악 무치악 부위에 4개의 임플란트를 식립 후, CAD/CAM 시스템으로 밀링한 titanium bar를 이용한 상악 가철성 임플란트 피개 국소의치를 계획하였다. 통상의 주조방법은 주조 후 수축을 하게 되지만 CAD/CAM 시스템으로 밀링한 titanium bar는 높은 정밀성과 경제성 그리고 가벼운 장점이 있다. 하지만 실제 임상에서 milled bar는 아주 균등하고 정확한 마찰결합을 얻기 힘들며 의치의 반복적인 착탈에 의해 마찰 유지력이 감소 할 수 있다. 이에 milled bar와 함께 사용할 수 있는 다양한 보조 유지장치(e.g. friction pin, $ERA^{(R)}$, $CEKA^{(R)}$, magnetics, $Locator^{(R)}$ 등)를 같이 사용함으로써 부가적인 유지력, 경제성 및 교체의 용이성 등을 추가적으로 얻을 수 있다. 본 증례에서 milled titanium bar의 상부면에 drill and tapping 방법으로 $Locator^{(R)}$ 유지장치를 연결하였다. milled bar에 screw hole을 형성하고 3개의 $Locator^{(R)}$ 유지장치를 20 Ncm으로 체결하여 추가적인 유지력을 확보하였다. 보철수복 후, 환자가 원하는 심미적인 안모, 저작 기능 및 의치 유지에 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Purpose: The bony mallet finger injury is generally managed by conservative treatments, but operative treatments are needed especially when the fractures involve above 30% of articular surface or distal phalanx is accompanied by subluxation in the volar side. This is the reason they often result in chronic instability, articular subluxation and unsatisfactory cosmetic. In this report, We describe new method using the hook plate as an operative treatment of Mallet finger deformity. Methods: Among 13 patients with Mallet finger deformity who came from February 2006 to February 2008, six patient were included in surgical indication. Under local anesthesia, H or Y type incision was made at the DIP joint area. After the DIP joint extension, the hook plate was put on the fracture line, and one self tapping screw was used for fixation. 2 hole plate which was one of the holes in 1.5 mm diameter was cut in almost half and bended through approximately $100^{\circ}$. Results: In all six cases which applied the hook plate, complications such as loss of reduction or nail deformity were not seen. In only one patient, hook pate was removed due to inflammatory reaction after surgery. At 2 weeks after operation, active motion of DIP joint was performed. The result was satisfactory not only cosmetically but also functionally. At 6 weeks after operation, the range of motion of DIP joint was average $64^{\circ}$. Conclusion: The purpose of the operative treatment for mallet finger deformity using the hook plate is to provide anatomical reduction with rigid fixation and to prevent contracture at the DIP joint. While other operations take 6 weeks, the operation using the hook plate begins an active motion at 2 weeks after operation. Complication rate was low and the method is rather simple. Thus, the operation using the hook plate is recommended as a good alternative method of the mallet finger deformity treatment.

본 연구는 self-tapping screw의 특징적 구조인 cutting flute의 길이 및 형태 변화에 따른 미니 임플랜트의 식립 및 제거 토크를 비교해보기 위해 시행되었다. 외경, 내경, 길이 및 pitch 등 다른 조건이 모두 동일하고 cutting flute의 형태만 다른 세 종류의 미니 임플랜트를 사용하였다(A군; 2.6 mm 길이의 flute가 형성된 그룹, B군; 3.9 mm의 길이이면서 직선형의 flute를 갖는 그룹, C군; 3.9 mm의 길이이면서 나선형의 flute를 갖는 그룹). 골밀도를 균일하게 하기 위해 실험용 인공골(Sawbones Inc., USA)을 사용하였으며, 수직력 및 회전속도를 일정하게 하기 위해 구동식 토크시험기를 이용하였다. 그 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 총 삽입 시간은 2 mm 두께의 피질골 시편에서는 세 군간에 차이를 보이지 않으나, 4 mm 두께의 피질골 시편에서는 C군 > B군 > A군 순으로 짧은 삽입 시간을 보였다. 최대 삽입 토크는 2 mm 두께의 시편에서는 A군이 다른 두 군에 비해 높은 값을 보이나, 4 mm 두께의 피질골 시편에서는 C군 > A군 > B군 순으로 높은 값을 보였다. 최대 제거 토크는 2 mm 두께의 피질골 시편에서는 세 군 사이에 차이가 없으나, 4 mm 두께의 피질골 시편에서는 C군이 다른 두 군에 비해 높은 값을 보여주었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 피질골이 두꺼운 부위에 미니 임플랜트를 식립할 경우 cutting flute의 길이 및 형태 또한 고려하여 미니 임플랜트를 선택하는 것이 바람직하다.
