In the process of arranging artificial teeth the simple atracing technique was shown to be more precise and convenient for general use in dental clinic than gothic arch tracing. The simple tracing technique had some advantages over other ones in that they were very useful to check protrusive, lateral and central occlusion of mandible movement, and it was very easy to transfer the oral condition and mandible movements precisely onto the articulator. Also the technique was more effective than when using wax bite in that the functional movement range has shifted to 0.2 - 0.4mm form central occlusion.

Objectives: We analyzed the correlation between physique and size of the dental arch of college students with normal occlusion. Methods: Ninety-nine college students filled out the prepared questionnaire. The length and width of the dental arch of the students was measured using a plaster model after taking an impression. The data were analyzed using the t-test and correlational analysis. Results: The maxilla arch length was 3.70 mm longer and the inter-molar width of the maxilla was 3.06 mm longer in men (both p<0.01) than in women. Additionally, the mandible was 3.66 mm longer in men as compared to those in the women (p<0.01). As height increased, there was increase in the body weight (α=0.683, p<0.01), maxilla arch length (α=0.373, p<0.01), molar width of the maxilla (α=0.214, p<0.05), and the mandible (α=0.280, p<0.01). The greater the weight increase, the greater the maxillary arch length increase (α=0.392, p<0.01), and the greater the molar width of the maxilla (α=0.336, p<0.01) and mandible (α=0.502, p<0.01) increase. Conclusions: As physical size (both height and weight) increased, the maxillary length and molar width also increased. Based on the results of this study, the cause of malocclusion, form and size of the dental arch, and stable occlusion can be used as basic data.

Failure of a redundant long-span bridge is often described by innumerable failure modes, which make the structural system reliability analysis become a computationally intractable work. In this paper, an innovative procedure is proposed to efficiently identify the dominant failure modes and quantify the structural reliability for a long-span bridge system. The procedure is programmed by ANSYS and MATLAB. Considering the correlation between failure paths, a new branch and bound operation criteria is applied to the traditional stage critical strength branch and bound algorithm. Computational effort can be saved by ignoring the redundant failure paths as early as possible. The reliability of dominant failure mode is computed by FORM, since the limit state function of failure mode can be expressed by the final stage critical strength. PNET method and FORM for system are suggested to be the suitable calculation method for the bridge system reliability. By applying the procedure to a CFST arch bridge, the proposed method is demonstrated suitable to the system reliability analysis for long-span bridge structure.

The diffuse form of supravalvar aortic stenosis represents a surgical challenge when the ascending aorta, aortic arch, proximal descending thoracic aorta and arch arteries are involved. It can be treated by a variety of surgical approaches. We report a case of severe diffuse supravalvar aortic stenosis combined with an aortic valve anomaly and occlusion of the right coronary artery ostium in a 14-year-old boy with Williams syndrome. We enlarged the aortic root(Nick's procedure), ascending aorta, aortic arch, proximal descending thoracic aorta, and innominate artery with patches and replaced aortic valve with 19 mm St. Jude valve. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and retrograde cerebral perfusion were used during repair of the arch and arch artery.

This study was to investigate the fitness of the dental arch line to the parabola, and to estimate correlation between the parabola and some ratios of the dental arch measurements. The sample was consisted of the 64 plaster casts showing normal occlusion which was taken from males and females of Korea, aging from 15 to 18 years. The photos of occlusal surface of the plaster casts were taken, and 38 landmarks on the film were selected. The 3 dental arch lines on each dental arch were imaged. One is the dental arch line passing the points of the most buccal surfaces of the teeth, another is that passing the buccal cusp tips of the posterior teeth and the incisal edges, and the other is that passing the midpoints of the teeth. The landmarks on the film were digitized, and measurements and statistics were performed by the IBM computer. The results were as follows; 1. The fitness of the dental arch to the parabola was very good. The fitness of thor upper dental arch was above $91\%$, and that of the lower dental arch was $93\%$. 2. The dental arch line passing the points of the most buccal surfaces of teeth was best fit to the parabola, the buccal cusp tip arch line and the midpoint arch line in order. 3. Correlation between the ratio of oblique molar dental height to molar width and the parabola was very high. 4. The ratio of oblique molar dental height to molar width was devided into 4 groups by the quartiles, and mean parabolic equations and curves were calculated and drawn.

Many geometric curves are presented as representative form of normal dental arches by many authors; circle, ellipse, parabola or catenary curve. Among them those except circle seems difficult to be adopted as a guide in ideal arch form construction and practically many orthodontists chose circle as a standard. Author preferred circle of Bonwill's theory in study of anterior teeth alignment of Korean adults. Eighty three dental models which possess proper occlusion and good arch form were selected and copies of their occlusal surfaces obtained by Ricopy machine. The use of Ricopy machine made it possible to draw arch form exactly. Mesiodistal widths of six anterior teeth were measured and they were added to combined mesiodistal width of six anterior teeth. Circle, that include the points of two cuspal tips of canines and one incisal edge of central incisor were drawn. Distances of lateral incisors that are deviated from arc of this circle were measured and classified into four grades by degree and three groups by kind of teeth deviated. By counting the number of samples involved degree of fit of the circle to arch contour of Korean adult was described. Then, size of radius of circle, intercanine width and intermolar width were measured and evaluated their ratios to combined mesiodistal width of six anterior teeth. In normal occlusion of Korean adult anterior teeth seems to be arranged on an arc of circle the radius of which is similar to combined mesiodistal width of six anterior teeth. Intercanine width and intermolar width have rather constant ratios to combined width of six anterior teeth.

This study has conducted a computational analysis to find out about characteristics of heat flow emitted from power lines when the sectional form of electric power tunnel that adopts forced ventilation is shaped like a rectangular, arch or horseshoe. The result of analysis shows that the temperature in the vicinity of the power line peaked at $70^{\circ}C$ when the sectional form is a rectangular, which indicates it is less affected by ventilation than the form of an arch or horseshoe.

In this study, the earthquake damage response of the concrete arch dams was investigated including dam-reservoir interaction. A continuum damage model which is a second-order tensor and includes the strain softening behavior was selected for the concrete material. Fluid-structure interaction problem was modeled by Lagrangian approach. Sommerfeld radiation condition was applied to the truncated boundary of reservoir. The improved form of the HHT-${\alpha}$ time integration algorithm was used in the solution of the equations of motion. The arch dam Type 5 was selected for numerical application. For the dynamic input, acceleration records of the 10 December 1967 Koyna earthquake were chosen. These records were scaled with earthquake acceleration scale factor (EASF) and then used in the analyses. Solutions were obtained for empty and full reservoir cases. The effects of EASF and damping ratio on the response of the dam were studied.

Skeletal Class III malocclusion is a relatively common form of malocclusion in Korea. In borderline cases where only mild skeletal discrepancy exists and if worsening of the facial profile is expected as a result of premolar extraction, mandibular full arch distalization with miniscrews is the treatment of choice. The purpose of this study was to investigate the pattern of tooth movement and evaluate the stability of mandibular full arch distalization and to identify correlation between stability and factors such as initial skeletal pattern, dental changes during treatment and alveolar bone in symphysis region using lateral cephalograms.
