Statement of problem: Increasing demand of esthetic restorations made lots of kinds of ceramic materials. Among them, zirconia has been being focused by many dentists. But, mechanical properties of zirconia were still unclear. Purpose : The purposes of this study were to analyze the flexural strength of various zirconia ceramics which had been currently used for clinic i.e., In-Ceram Zirconia(Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad $S\"{a}ckingen$, Germany), Celay Zirconia(Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad $S\"{a}ckingen$, Germany) and CAD/CAM Zirconia (Adens Zi-Ceram. Seoul , Korea). Material and methods: The four point bending test(ASTM Cl161) was used to measure the flexural strength of a specimen before and after circular heat treatment and fatigue loading. Results : 1. The average value of flexural strengths of CAD/CAM Zirconia, Celay Zirconia, In-Ceram Zirconia in dry condition were 806.5 MPa, 669.9 MPa, 605.6 MPa, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in strength among the types (P<0.05). 2. After thermocycling, the average flexural strengths of CAD/CAM Zirconia, Celay Zirconia, In-Ceram Zirconia were 791.2 MPa, 604.2 MPa, 605.4 MPa, respectively. CAD/CAM Zirconia showed statistically significant higher strength(P<0.05). The others showed no significant difference after thermocycling(P>0.05). 3. After fatigue loading in wet condition. the average flexural strengths of CAD/CAM Zirconia, Celay Zirconia, In-Ceram Zirconia were 806.0 MPa, 674.9 MPa, 601.7 MPa, respectively. There was a significant difference in strength among the types(P<0.05). 4. There was no statistically significant difference in strength of the specimens according to experimental methods except for before and after thermocycling in Celay Zirconia(P>0.05). Conclusion: Besides high esthetic quality, zirconia had sufficiently high mechanical strength.

The flexural strength of $MoSi_2$ based composites reinforced with Nb sheets has been investigated, based on the detailed examination of their microstructure and fractured surface. Both sintered density and porosity of Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites were also examined. Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites were fabricated by different conditions such as temperature, applied pressure and its holding time, using a hot-press device. The volume fraction of Nb sheet in this composite system was fixed as 10%. The characterization of Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites were investigated by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscope and three point bending test. Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites represented a dense morphology at the interfacial region, accompanying the creation of two types of reaction layer by the chemical reaction of Nb and $MoSi_2$. Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites possessed an excellent density at the fabricating temperature of $1350^{\circ}C$, corresponded to about 95% of theoretical density. The flexural strength of Nb/$MoSi_2$ romposites were greatly affected by the pressure holding time at the same fabricating temperature, owing to the large suppression of porosity in the microstructure. Especially, Nb/$MoSi_2$ composites represented a good flexural strength of about 310 MPa at the fabricating condition of $1350^{\circ}C$, 30MPa and 60min, accompanying the pseudo-ductile fracture behavior by the deformation of Nb sheet and the interfacial delamination.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to compare the fracture strength of the metal and the bond strength in metal-ceramic restorations produced by selective laser sintering (SLS) and by conventional casting (CAST). MATERIALS AND METHODS. Non-precious alloy (StarLoy C, DeguDent, Hanau, Germany) was used in CAST group and metal powder (SP2, EOS GmbH, Munich, Germany) in SLS group. Metal specimens in the form of sheets ($25.0{\times}3.0{\times}0.5mm$) were produced in accordance with ISO 9693:1999 standards (n=30). To measure the bond strength, ceramic was fired on a metal specimen and then three-point bending test was performed. In addition, the metal fracture strength was measured by continuing the application of the load. The values were statistically analyzed by performing independent t-tests (${\alpha}=.05$). RESULTS. The mean bond strength of the SLS group (50.60 MPa) was higher than that of the CAST group (46.29 MPa), but there was no statistically significant difference. The metal fracture strength of the SLS group (1087.2 MPa) was lower than that of the CAST group (2399.1 MPa), and this difference was statistically significant. CONCLUSION. In conclusion the balling phenomenon and the gap formation of the SLS process may increase the metal-ceramic bond strength.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 1) the diameter(0.7,1.0,1.2mm) and number(1,2,3) of commonly available orthodontic metal wires embedded in self-curing orthodontic acrylic resin specimens($64{\times}10{\times}3mm$) and 2) the use of chemical adhesive system(Silicoater, Metalprimer) to prevent slipping at the interface between the resin and the metal wire on reinforcement by using three-point bending test. From this study, the following results were obtained. 1. No statistically significant difference was found among the transverse strengths for the control without reinforcement, one 0.7mm wire, two 0.7mm wires, three 0.7mm wires, and one 1.0mm wire groups(P>.05). 2. In the groups with 1.0 or 1.2mm wires, the transverse strength increased in proportion to the increase of number of wires(P<.05). 3. In the groups with 0.7 or 1.0mm wires, neither of Silicoater and Netalprimer increased the transverse strength significantly(P>.05). 4. No statistically significant difference was found in transverse strength between Silicoater groups and Metalprimer groups with same diameter of wires(P.>05). From these result, it is concluded that diameter of wires is a primary considering factor to reinforce the acrylic resin effectively and, when this requirement is satisfied, increased number of wires or chemical adhesive systems can be expected to produce the additional reinforcing effect.

The paper presents the study on a change in modal parameters and structural stiffness of cable-stayed Fiberline Bridge made entirely of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composite used for 20 years in the fjord area of Kolding, Denmark. Due to this specific location the bridge structure was subjected to natural aging in harsh environmental conditions. The flexural properties of the pultruded GFRP profiles acquired from the analyzed footbridge in 1997 and 2012 were determined through three-point bending tests. It was found that the Young's modulus increased by approximately 9%. Moreover, the influence of the temperature on the storage and loss modulus of GFRP material acquired from the Fiberline Bridge was studied by the dynamic mechanical analysis. The good thermal stability in potential real temperatures was found. The natural vibration frequencies and mode shapes of the bridge for its original state were evaluated through the application of the Finite Element (FE) method. The initial FE model was created using the real geometrical and material data obtained from both the design data and flexural test results performed in 1997 for the intact composite GFRP material. Full scale experimental investigations of the free-decay response under human jumping for the experimental state were carried out applying accelerometers. Seven natural frequencies, corresponding mode shapes and damping ratios were identified. The numerical and experimental results were compared. Based on the difference in the fundamental natural frequency it was again confirmed that the structural stiffness of the bridge increased by about 9% after 20 years of service life. Data collected from this study were used to validate the assumed FE model. It can be concluded that the updated FE model accurately reproduces the dynamic behavior of the bridge and can be used as a proper baseline model for the long-term monitoring to evaluate the overall structural response under service loads. The obtained results provided a relevant data for the structural health monitoring of all-GFRP bridge.

This paper presents an investigation on the dynamic behavior of SRC columns with built-in cross-shaped steels under impact load. Seven 1/2 scaled SRC specimens were subjected to low-speed impact by a gravity drop hammer test system. Three main parameters, including the lateral impact height, the axial compression ratios and the stirrup spacing, were considered in the response analysis of the specimens. The failure mode, deformation, the absorbed energy of columns, as well as impact loads are discussed. The results are mainly characterized by bending-shear failure, meanwhile specimens can maintain an acceptable integrity. More than 33% of the input impact energy is dissipated, which demonstrates its excellent impact resistance. As the impact height increases, the flexural cracks and shear cracks observed on the surface of specimens were denser and wider. The recorded time-history of impact force and mid-span displacement confirmed the three stages of relative movement between the hammer and the column. Additionally, the displacements had a notable delay compared to the rapid changes observed in the measured impact load. The deflection of the mid-span did not exceed 5.90mm while the impact load reached peak value. The impact resistance of the specimen can be improved by proper design for stirrup ratios and increasing the axial load. However, the cracking and spalling of the concrete cover at the impact point was obvious with the increasing in stiffness.

웨이퍼 레벨(WL) 3차원(3D) 집적을 구현하기 위해 저유전체 고분자를 본딩 접착제로 이용한 웨이퍼 본딩과, 적층된 웨이퍼간 전기배선 형성을 위해 구리 다마신(damascene) 공정을 사용하는 방법을 소개한다. 이러한 방법을 이용하여 웨이퍼 레벨 3차원 칩의 특성 평가를 위해 적층된 웨이퍼간 3차원 비아(via) 고리 구조를 제작하고, 그 구조의 기계적, 전기적 특성을 연속적으로 연결된 서로 다른 크기의 비아를 통해 평가하였다. 또한, 웨이퍼간 적층을 위해 필수적인 저유전체 고분자 수지를 이용한 웨이퍼 본딩 공정의 다음과 같은 특성 평가를 수행하였다. (1) 광학 검사에 의한 본딩된 영역의 정도 평가, (2) 면도날(razor blade) 시험에 의한 본딩된 웨이퍼들의 정성적인 본딩 결합력 평가, (3) 4-점 굽힘시험(four point bending test)에 의한 본딩된 웨이퍼들의 정량적인 본딩 결합력 평가. 본 연구를 위해 4가지의 서로 다른 저유전체 고분자인 benzocyclobutene(BCB), Flare, methylsilsesquioxane(MSSQ) 그리고 parylene-N을 선정하여 웨이퍼 본딩용 수지에 대한 적합성을 검토하였고, 상기 평가 과정을 거쳐 BCB와 Flare를 1차적인 본딩용 수지로 선정하였다. 한편 BCB와 Flare를 비교해 본 결과, Flare를 이용하여 본딩된 웨이퍼들이 BCB를 이용하여 본딩된 웨이퍼보다 더 높은 본딩 결합력을 보여주지만, BCB를 이용해 본딩된 웨이퍼들은 여전히 칩 back-end-of-the-line (BEOL) 공정조건에 부합되는 본딩 결합력을 가지는 동시에 동공이 거의 없는 100%에 가까운 본딩 영역을 재현성있게 보여주기 때문에 본 연구에서는 BCB가 본딩용 수지로 더 적합하다고 판단하였다.

연구목적: 본 연구는 높은 심미성을 나타내지만 낮은 파절 강도로 인하여 구치부에서의 사용이 제한되고 있는 전부도재 고정성 국소의치의 파절강도를 증가시키기 위한 방법으로, 취성 재료인 도재에 인장강도가 높은 금속선을 삽입하고 물리적, 기계적 성질을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: lithium disilicate(ingot No.200 : IPS Empress 2, Ivoclar Vivadent, Lichtenstein)와 0.41 mm 직경의 Ni-Cr 금속선(Alfa Aesar, Johnson Matthey Company, USA)을 사용하여, 금속선의 수와 배열을 달리한 4개의 실험군 시편을 제작하였다. 모든 시편은 폭 4 mm, 두께 2 mm, 길이 15 mm의 직육면체로 제작하였다. 실험군 1, 2, 3은 각각 한 가닥, 두 가닥, 세 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 장축을 따라 배열하였으며, 실험군 4는 세 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 장축에, 다섯 가닥의 금속선을 도재 시편의 횡축에 배열하였다. 대조군에는 금속선을 삽입하지 않았으며, 대조군 및 각각의 실험군의 시편은 각 군당 12개로 하였다. 결과: 만능 시험기(Z020, Zwick, Germany)를 이용하여 파절시점까지 하중을 가한 후, 굴곡계수, 굴곡강도, 파절시점까지의 변형률, 파괴인성을 측정하였다. 파절된 시편의 도재와 금속선의 계면을 횡절단 및 연마하여 주사전자현미경(JSM-6360, JEOL, Japan)으로 100배상에서 관찰하였다. 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 도재에 금속선을 삽입한 결과, 금속선을 삽입하지 않은 대조군에 비해 통계적 유의성 있는 굴곡계수 및 굴곡강도의 변화는 관찰할 수 없었으나, 변형률의 유의성 있는 증가(P<.001)를 관찰할 수 있었다. 2. 금속선을 삽입한 시편의 파절 양상은 하중점 부위에서 도재만 파절되는 양상을 나타내었다. 3. 금속선을 삽입한 도재의 파절된 시편을 횡절단 및 종절단하여 100 배상에서 주사전자현미경으로 촬영한 결과, 하중 시 도재의 파절 원인이 될 수 있는 도재 내부의 기포는 관찰되지 않았으며, 도재와 금속선 사이의 gap도 관찰되지 않았다. 결론: 금속선 삽입의 결과, 취성 재료인 도재의 통계적으로 유의성 있는 변형률의 증가를 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 구치부에서 금속선 강화 도재의 사용을 위해서는 굴곡계수 및 굴곡강도의 향상이 필요하다. 이를 위해서는 추가적 연구가 필요하다.
