Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the insertion depth of an immediately loaded implant on the stress distribution of the surrounding bone and the micromovement of the implant using the three-dimensional finite element analysis. Materials and methods: A total of five bone models were constructed such that the implant platform was positioned at the levels of 0.00 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.50 mm, 0.75 mm, and 1.00 mm depth from the crest of the cortical bone. A frictional coefficient of 0.3 and the insertion torque of 35 Ncm were simulated on the interface between the implant and surrounding bone. A static load of 178 N was applied to the provisional prosthesis with a vertical load in the axial direction and an oblique load at $30^{\circ}$ with respect to the central axis of the implant, then a finite element analysis was performed. Results: The implant insertion depth significantly affected the stress distribution on the surrounding bone. The largest micromovement value of the implant was $39.34{\mu}m$. The oblique load contributed significantly to the stress distribution and micromovement in comparison to the vertical load. Conclusion: Increasing the implant insertion depth was advantageous in dispersing the concentrated stress in the cortical bone and did not significantly affect the micromovement associated with early osseointegration failure.

The numerical simulation of Brazilian fracture toughness test is carried out using PFC code and the influence parameters are analyzed such as shape of loading plane, size of Brazilian disc and unit panicle of model, loading angle and loading rate. The flattened Brazilian disc is adopted for applying uniform load. The range of loading angle(2$\alpha$) necessary to induce the tensile crack at disc center and to obtain the load-displacement curve giving the critical load for the stable crack propagation is shown as 20$^{\circ}$~40$^{\circ}$. In condition that the loading angle is 20$^{\circ}$, the mode-I fracture toughness is evaluated almost constant in the range of particle size less than I mm and loading rate less than 0.01 mm/s. This range of influence parameters seems appropriate condition for the tensile crack initiation at disc center and the control of stable crack propagation, which can give the reliance in evaluation of fracture toughness by Brazilian test.

As concrete structures are getting larger, higher, longer, and specialized, it is more required to develop steel fiber concrete and apply to the real world. In this research, it is aimed to have fatigue strength examined, varying the steel fiber content by 0%, 0.75%, 1.00%, 1.25%, by experimental study of Two-spans Beam with Steel Fibrous with repeated loads. The ultimate load and the initial load of flexural cracking were measured by static test. In addition, the load versus strain relation, load versus strain relation, load versus deflection relation, crack pattern and fracture mode by increasing weight was observed. On the other hand, the crack propagation and the modes of fracture according to cycle number and the relation of cycle loading to deflection relation and strain relation was observed by fatigue test. As the result of fatigue test, Two-spans Beam without Steel Fibrous was failed at 60~70% of the static ultimate strength and it could be concluded that fatigue strength to two million cycle was around 67.2% by S-N curve. On the other hand, that with Steel Fibrous was failed at 65~85% of the static ultimate strength and it could be concluded fatigue strength to two million cycle around 71.7%.

브로네마르크가 골유착성 임플랜트를 소개한 이래로, 현재 골유착성 임플랜트에 의한 치료는 안전하고 안정적인 방법으로 여겨지고 있다. 골유착성 임플랜트를 이용한 초기의 치료는 무치악 환자의 저작기능 회복에 중점을 두어 왔다. 그러나 현재는 환자와 시대의 요구에 따라서 심미성이 주요한 관심사가 되었다. 그래서 표준 지대주보다 더 심미적인 지대주 시스템들이 개발되었다. 다양한 직경의 임플랜트 고정체에 관한 임상가들의 요구에 의해 직경 이 큰 고정체가 생산되기 시작했으며, 5mm의 직경을 갖는 고정체가 그 예이다. 골유착성 임플랜트를 사용하여 보철치료를 할 때, 골과 고정체의 계면은 보철물과 지대주에 가해지는 교합력을 인접골에 전달하게 되며, 이것은 계면에 생물학적인 반응을 야기할 수 있다. 임플랜트의 형태는 골흡수와 같은 바람직하지 않은 반응을 일으키지 않도록 고안되어야 하며, 임플랜트 자체가 교합력을 견딜 수 있어야 한다. 그러므로 골유착성 임플랜트 시스템을 임상에 사용하려고 할 때 이것의 생역학적 분석은 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 삼차원 유한요소분석적 방법을 사용하여 3.75mm직경을 갖는 고정체에 표준 지대주, 이세티콘 지대주, 마이러스콘 지대주를 연결한 모델과 5mm 직경을 갖는 고정체에 표준 지대주를 연결한 모델에 각각 수직하중, 경사하중, 수평하중을 가했을 때의 응력분포를 비교하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 모든 모델에서 금나사의 경부, 금원주, 지대주에 응력의 집중이 일어났다. 2. 임플랜트 고정체에서는 고정체 상방 2/3, 그리고 지대주와 접촉하는 고정체 상면에서 응력의 집중이 관찰되었다. 3. 골에서는 상부 피질골에 응력의 집중이 관찰되었으며, 해면골에서는 두드러진 응력의 집중을 보인 부위는 없었으나 고정체의 근단부 주위 해면골에서의 응력값이 비교적 높았다. 4. 5mm 직경의 고정체를 사용하지 않은 모델 중에서, 표준 지대주를 사용한 경우가 가장 응력분산에 유리하였으며 마이러스콘 지대주를 사용한 경우가 가장 불리하였다. 5. 3가지 하중 조건하에서 수평하중과 경사하중의 경우가 수직하중의 경우보다 더 높은 응력값이 관찰되었다. 6. 응력값은 골에서보다 임플랜트 내부에서 훨씬 높았다.

Hertzian indentation tests with spherical indenters in water were conducted to examine the contact fatigue in three dental ceramics, such as feldspathic porcelain, micaceous glass-ceramic (MGC) and glass-infiltrated alumina, which was used as dental restorations, and evaluated the effect of contact damage on strength. Initial damage was dependent of microstructure, showing cone cracks of brittle behavior in the feldspathic porcelain and deformation of quasi-plastic behavior in the MGC, with an intermediate case in the glass-infiltrated alumina. However, as increasing the number of cyclic loading (n=1~n =$10^6$)all materials showed an abrupt strength degradation, at which fracture was originated from damage in the contact fatigue. There were two strength degradation with increasing the number of cyclic loading in specific loads (200N, 500N, 1000N):first was from the cone cracks, and second was from the radial cracks created by cyclic loading. The radial cracks, once formed, led to rapid degradation in strength properties, Finally the material was failed at the high number of cyclic loading. Strength degradation with indentation load at fixed number of cyclic loading indicated that the feldspathic porcelain should be highly damage tolerant to the contact fatigue.

Launch vehicles are subject to airborne acoustic loads during atmospheric flight and these effects become pronounced especially in transonic region. As the vibration due to the acoustic loads can cause malfunction of payloads, it is essential to predict and reduce the acoustic loads. In this study, a complete process has been developed for predicting airborne vibro-acoustic environment inside the payload pairing and subsequent noise reduction procedure employing acoustic blankets and Helmholtz resonators. Acoustic loads were predicted by Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analysis and a semi-empirical model for pressure fluctuation inside turbulent boundary layer. Coupled vibro-acoustic analysis was performed using VA One SEA's Finite Element Statistical Energy Analysis (FE-SEA) hybrid module and ANSYS APDL. The process has been applied to a hammerhead launch vehicle to evaluate the effect of acoustic load reduction and accordingly to verify the effectiveness of the process. The presently developed process enables to obtain quick analysis result with reasonable accuracy and thus is expected to be useful in the initial design phase of a launch vehicle.

In this study, the structural behavior of reinforced concrete members under simultaneous axial and blast loads was analyzed. Nonlinear dynamic analysis verification was performed using the experimental data of panels under fundamental blast load as well as those of reinforced concrete columns subjected to axial and blast loads. Because Autodyn is a program designed only for dynamic analysis, an analysis process is devised to simulate the initial stress state of members under static loads, such as axial loads. A total of 80 nonlinear dynamic finite element analysis procedures were conducted by selecting parameters corresponding to axial load ratios and scaled distances ranging 0%~70% and 1.1~2.0 (depending on the equivalent of TNT), respectively. The structural behavior was compared and analyzed with the corresponding degree of damage and maximum lateral displacement through the changes in axial load ratio and scaled distance. The results show that the maximum lateral displacement decreases due to the increase in column stiffness under axial loads. In view of the foregoing, the formulated analysis process is anticipated to be used in developing blast-resistant design models where structural behavior can be classified into three areas considering axial load ratios of 10%~30%, 30%~50%, and more than 50%.

It is well known that the shear strength of an RC column subjected to a lateral force decreases with the increase of the displacement ductility of column. This decreasing rate of shear strength is quite dependent on the initial shear strength. Therefore, the evaluation of the initial shear strength is important to predict the shear strength with reasonable accuracy. The shear behavior is complex because many parameters, such as the sectional shape, aspect ratio, axial force, longitudinal bars and ductility, are mutually interactive. In this study, the initial shear strength has been investigated by experiments varying parameters such as the aspect ratios, void ratios, ratio of longitudinal bars and sectional types. A new empirical equation for the initial shear strength, considering the ratio of the longitudinal bars, has been proposed and its validity has been assessed.

This paper investigates the effect of rock discontinuities on a shear stress wave that is induced by earthquake or blasting and provides the result of numerical parametric studies. The numerical tests of different conditions of rock and discontinuity have been carried out after confirming that the numerical approach is valid throughout a verification analysis from which the test results were compared with a theoretical solution. In-situ stress condition was considered as a rock condition and internal friction angle and cohesive value, which are the shear strength parameters, were considered as discontinuities condition. The joint inclination angle was also taken into account as a parameter. With the various conditions of different parameters, the test results showed that a shear stress wave propagating through a mass is highly influenced by the shear strength of discontinuities and the condition of joint inclination angle as well as in-situ stress. The study results indicate that when earthquake or blasting-induced dynamic loading propagates through a jointed rock mass or a stratified soil ground the effect of in-situ stress and discontinuities including a stratum boundary should be taken into account when evaluating the dynamic effect on nearby facilities and structures.
