Purpose: This study was conducted to obtain difference in fracture strength according to the diameter of one-body O-ring-type of mini implant fixture, to determine the resistance of mini implant to masticatory pressure, and to examine whether overdenture using O-ring type mini implant is clinically usable to maxillary and mandibular edentulous patients. Materials and methods: For this study, 13 mm long one body O-ring-type mini implants of different diameters (2.0 mm, 2.5 mm and 3.0 mm) (Dentis, Daegu, Korea) were prepared, 5 for each diameter. The sample was placed at $30^{\circ}$ from the horizontal surface on the universal testing machine, and off-axis loading was applied until permanent deformation occurred and the load was taken as maximum compressive strength. The mean value of the 5 samples was calculated, and the compressive strength of implant fixture was compared according to diameter. In addition, we prepared 3 samples for each diameter, and applied loading equal to 80%, 60% and 40% of the compressive strength until fracture occurred. Then, we measured the cycle number on fracture and analyzed fatigue fracture for each diameter. Additionally, we measured the cycle number on fracture that occurred when a load of 43 N, which is the average masticatory force of complete denture, was applied. The difference on compressive strength between each group was tested statistically using one-way ANOVA test. Results: Compressive strength according to the diameter of mini implant was $101.5{\pm}14.6N$, $149{\pm}6.1N$ and $276.0{\pm}13.4N$, respectively, for diameters 2.0 mm, 2.5 mm and 3.0 mm. In the results of fatigue fracture test at 43 N, fracture did not occur until $2{\times}10^6$ cycles at diameter 2.0 mm, and until $5{\times}10^6$ cycles at 2.5 mm and 3.0 mm. Conclusion: Compressive strength increased significantly with increasing diameter of mini implant. In the results of fatigue fracture test conducted under the average masticatory force of complete denture, fracture did not occur at any of the three diameters. All of the three diameters are usable for supporting overdenture in maxillary and mandibular edentulous patients, but considering that the highest masticatory force of complete denture is 157 N, caution should be used in case diameter 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm is used.

In the preoperative evaluation before coronary artery bypass surgery, review of the coronary arteriogram is the most important step. Expected "normal" lumen diameter at a given coronary anatomic location is a basis for quantative estimation of coronary disease severity that could be more useful than the traditional "percent stenosis". The distribution and number of major coronary artery branches are determinants of number of bypass grafts needed. We reviewed the coronary artery anatomy in 174 adult patients who revealed no coronary pathology in angiographic studies done from September 1994 to June 1996. Quantative analysis was done in all cases by a single person using a Computerized System (Arripro 35ⓡ). The results were follows; 1) The mean diametre of left main coronary artery was 4.45 mm(range 2.74~6.72). The pattern of branching was bifurcation in 67.24%, trifurcation in 28.74% and quadrifurcation in 4.02% of the patients. 2) The mean diametre of left anterior descending artery was 3.17 mm(range 2.10~5.85), 2.79 (range 1.55~5.59) and 2.17 mm(range 1.37~3.81) in the proximal, mid, and the distal portions, respectively. The number of diagonal branches of left anterior artery was from one to four(mode=2). 3) The mean diametre of proximal and distal left circumflex artery were 3.17mm(range 1.74~4.89) and 2.19 mm(range 1.21~4.46). The number of obtuse marginal branches of left circumflex artery is from one to six(mode 2). 4) The mean diametre of proximal and distal right coronary artery, the posterior descending artery and the largest posterolateral branch were mean 3.51 mm(range 2.07~5.67), 2.09 mm (range 1.42~3.60), 2.09 mm(range 1.02~3.60) and 2.30 mm(range 1.39~4.39). 5) The right coronary artery dominant was 163 cases(93.68%) of the total 174 cases. 6) The large significant acute marginal artery was visualized in more than half of the people. half of the people.

This paper presents shear characteristics of a ground improved by sand piles. The sand piles have different length and diameter depending on the depth of a clayey layer. A series of CU triaxial compression tests are carried out on specimens covered with/without soft material which is similar to geotextile. The results show that the shear strength and stress ration increase as the length and the diameter of the sand pile increase. In addition, covering the specimen with the soft material appears to affect those characteristics as well. The increase of cohesion seems to be more remarkable compared to internal frictional angle.

This work investigated the influence of the chimney dimensions(exit and entrance length, and diameter) on the heat transfer of a vertical cylinder in a duct. The measured mass transfer rates for the natural convection of vertical cylinder in a duct were presented for Prandlt number 2,094, Rayleigh number in the range of $4.55{\times}10^9$, $5.79{\times}10^{10}$, and $1.69{\times}10^{11}$. Experiments were performed using a copper sulfate electroplating system to simulate heat transfer based upon the analogy concept. The diameter of the duct was varied from 0.06 m to 0.14 m, and the heights from 0.30 m to 1.10 m. Nusselt numbers measured at open channel condition agreed well with the existing laminar heat transfer correlations for vertical plate developed by Le Fevre. The increase of the exit length enhanced the heat transfer up to a certain duct height but further increase does not affects the heat transfer. The heat transfer decreased with increasing the entrance length up to a certain duct height and was constant at further increase. The Nusselt number decreased with increasing the diameter of duct, until Nusselt number becomes similar to that at open channel beyond a certain diameter.

Twenty-four beam specimens were tested to examine the effect of the maximum aggregate size on the shear behavior of lightweight concrete continuous beams. The maximum aggregate size varied from 4 mm to 19 mm and shear span-to-depth ratio was 2.5 and 0.6 in each all-lightweight, sand-lightweight and normal weight concrete groups. The ratio of the normalized shear capacity of lightweight concrete beams to that of the company normal weight concrete beams was also compared with the modification factor specified in ACI 318-05 for lightweight concrete. The microphotograph showed that some unsplitted aggregates were observed in the failure planes of lightweight concrete beams, which contributed to the enhancement of the shear capacity of lightweight concrete beams. As a result, the normalized shear capacity of lightweight concrete continuous beams increased with the increase of the maximum aggregate size, though the increasing rate was lower than that of normal weight concrete continuous beams. The modification factor specified in ACI 318-05 was generally unconservative in the continuous lightweight concrete beams, showing an increase of the unconservatism with the increase of the maximum aggregate size. In addition, the conservatism of the shear provisions of ACI 318-05 was lower in lightweight concrete beams than in normal weight concrete beams.

We designed a model composed a ring type magnet, a yoke, and a sensing coil buried in a projectile for calculating the muzzle velocity based on the voltage induced from sensing coil by simulation. The muzzle velocity was calculated from the master curve obtained through the voltage induced from sensing coil by simulation. The induced voltage increased with increasing the diameter of sensing coil. The projectile's velocity was proportional to the induced voltage when the sensing coil was buried in projectile. The projectile will be surely exploded at the target region by inputting the information of muzzle velocity variation corrected the diameter effect of induced voltage of sensing coil.

Seven different size of orifice were applied in a constant volume combustion chamber for evaluating the effects of torch-ignition on combustion. The initial flame development and flame propagation were analyzed by the mass fraction burn and combustion enhancement rate. The combustion pressures were measured to calculate the mass fraction burn and the combustion enhancement rates. In addition, the flame propagations were visualized by the shadowgraph method for the qualitative comparison. The result showed that the combustion pressure and mass burned fraction were increased when using the torch-ignition device. The combustion enhancement rates of torch-ignition cases were improved in comparison with conventional spark ignition. Finally, the visualization results showed that the torch-ignition induced faster burn than conventional spark ignition due to the earlier transition to turbulent flame and larger flame surface, during the initial stage.

3D 패키징 기술은 전기소자의 소형화, 고용량화, 저전력화, 높은 신뢰성등의 요구와 함께 그 중요성이 대두대고 있다. 이러한 3D 패키징의 연결방법은 와이어 본딩 또는 플립칩등의 기존의 방법에서 TSV(Through Silicon Via)를 이용하여 적층하는 방법이 주목받고 있다. TSV는 기존의 와이어 본딩과 비교하여 고집적도, 빠른 신호전달, 낮은 전력소비 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. TSV의 세부 공정 중 비아필링(Via filling)기술은 I/O수 증가와 미세피치화에 따른 비아(Via) 직경의 감소 및 종횡비(Via Aspect Ratio)증가로 인해 기존 필링 공정으로는 한계가 있다. 기존의 비아 홀(Via hole)에 금속을 필링하기 위한 방법으로 전기도금법이 많이 사용되고 있으나, 전기도금법은 전기도금액 조성, 첨가제의 종류, 전류밀도, 전류모드 등에 따라 결과물에 큰 차이가 발생되어, 최적공정조건의 도출이 어렵다. 또한 20um이하의 비아직경과 높은 종횡비로 인하여 충진시 void형성등의 문제점이 발생하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 용융솔더와 진공을 이용하여 비아를 필링시켰다. 이 방법은 관통된 비아가 형성된 웨이퍼 양단에 압력차를 주어, 작은 직경을 갖는 비아 홀의 표면장력을 극복하고, 용융상태의 솔더가 관통된 비아 홀 내부로 필링되는 방법이다. 관통 비아홀이 형성 된 웨이퍼 위에 솔더페이스트를 $250^{\circ}C$이상 온도를 가해 용융상태로 만든 후 웨이퍼 하부에 진공을 형성하여 필링하는 방법과 용융솔더를 노즐을 통하여 위쪽으로 유동시켜 그 위에 비아홀이 형성된 웨이퍼를 접촉하고 웨이퍼 상부에 진공을 형성하여 필링하는 방법으로 실험을 각각 실시하였다. 이 때, 웨이퍼 두께는 100um이하이며 홀 직경은 20, 30um, 웨이퍼 상부와 하부의 진공차는 약 0.02~0.08Mpa, 진공 유지시간은 1~3s로 실시하여 최적 조건을 고찰하였다. 각 조건에 따른 필링 후 단면을 전자현미경(FE-SEM)을 통해 관찰하였다. 실험 결과 0.04Mpa 이상에서 1s내의 시간에 모든 비아홀이 기공(Void)없이 완벽하게 필링되는 것을 관찰하였으며 이 결과는 기존의 방법에 비하여 공정시간을 감소시켜 생산성이 대폭 향상 될 수 있는 방법임을 확인하였다.

Acute obstruction of the upper airway from trachea, a foreign body or Iaryngospasm may lead to death in a few minutes. The immediate restoration of an adequate airway in these patients may be lifesaving. Spontaneous respiration by means of a needle inserted into the trachea was studied in 21 rabbits using 16, 18, and 20 gauge extrcatheters. The results are as follows; 1) Airway resistance was markedly increased in all experimental animals. consequently tidal volume was also significantly decreased, but this seems to be compensatory by increased of respiratory frequency in l6G group. 2) Blood gas analysis revealed adequate pulmonary ventilation through the constricted airway (about 1/3 of normal sized trachea) during 60 minutes. In the other hand, hypercarbia, hypoxemia, and metabolic acidosis were developed in the group with severe constriction of the upper airway (about 1/4-1/6 of normal sized trachea). 3) The further study is postulated to confirm the the possibility of application of needle trcheostomy in man, but the rabbits were tolerable to the constricted airway with a small sized needle (l6G) into the trachea for 60 minutes.
