Mandibular third molar extraction is commonly performed in dental clinics. However, the optimal method of anesthesia has not been established for this procedure. The conventional inferior alveolar nerve block is the most widely used method. However, its success rate is not high and it may lead to complications, such as aspiration and nerve injury. Therefore, various anesthesia methods are being investigated. Articaine has been proven to be efficacious in a number of studies and is being used with increasing frequency in clinical practice. In this review article, we will briefly review various local anesthesia techniques, anesthetics, and a computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery (CCLAD) system, which reduces pain by controlling the speed of drug injection, for mandibular third molar extraction.

This paper presents a design of a divide unit supporting IEEE-754 floating point standard single-precision with 32-bit word length. Its functions have been verified with ALTERA MAX PLUS II tool. For a high-speed division operation, the radix-4 non-restoring algorithm has been applied and CLA(carry-look -ahead) adders has been used in order to improve the area efficiency and the speed of performance for the fraction division part. The prevention of the speed decrement of operations due to clocking has been achieved by taking advantage of combinational logic. A quotient select block which is very complicated and significant in the high-radix part was designed by using P-D plot in order to select the fast and accurate quotient. Also, we designed all division steps with Gate-level which visualize the operations and delay time.

During contact between surfaces, there is wear and the generation of wear. The particles contained in the lubricating oil carry detailed and important monitoring information about the condition of the machine. Therefore, this paper was undertaken for the Ferrography system of wear debris generated from a lubricated moving machine surface. The lubricating wear test was performed under different experimental conditions using the Falex wear test of the Pin and V-Block types by Ti(C,N) coated. It was shown from the test results that wear particle concentration(WPC), wear severity index(Is) and size distribution have come out all higher with increases in sliding friction time. With the Ferrogram thin leaf wear debris as well as ball and plate type wear particles were observed.

The design of DNA nanostructures is of fundamental importance, the intrinsic value of DNA as a building-block material lies in its ability to organize other bio-molecules with nanometer-scale spacing. Here, we report the fabrication of DNA scaffolds with nano-pores (<10 nm size) that formed easily without the use of additives (i.e., avidin, biotin, polyamine, or inorganic materials) into large-scale structures by assembling DNA molecules at near room temperature ($30^{\circ}C$) and low pH (~5.5). Protein immobilization results also confirmed that a fibronectin (FN) proteins/large scale DNA scaffolds/aminopropylytriethoxysilane (APS)/SiO2/Si substrate with high sensitivity formed in a well-defined manner. The DNA scaffolds can be applied for use with DNA-based biochips, biophysics, and cell biology.

본 논문에서는, 한 장의 저해상도 영상으로부터 고해상도 영상을 생성하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 고해상도 영상과 저해상도 영상의 관계를 나타내는 선형연립방정식을 푸는 원리에 기초한다. 하지만 이러한 방정식은 일의적으로 정해지지 않기 때문에 고해상도 영상을 나타내기 위챈 사용된 미지수를 축소하기 위한 이산코사인변환(DCT)의 에너지 집중특성을 이용하였다. 또한 그 구현방법으로 저해상도 영상을 일련의 작은 블록으로 나누어 각 블록영상에 적용하는 블록분할법(block division method)과 전체프레임 영상에 직접 적용하는 전 프레임법(full frame method)을 사용하였다. 최종적으로 본 제안방법의 유효성을 확인하기 위해 시뮬레이션 실험영상에 적용한 결과 양호한 결과를 나타냈다.

We proposed a new experimental method which is required to easily observe the growth behavior of fatigue cracks. In the proposed method, the image data of cracks were stored into the computer while the cyclic loading was interrupted. After testing, crack length was determined using an image processing software which was developed by authors. By comparing the data measured by the image processing system with those by the manual measurement with a microscope, the effectiveness of the image processing system was established. If the proposed method is used to monitor and observe the crack growth behavior automatically, the time and efforts for fatigue test could be dramatically reduced.

본 논문은 연속 초음파 영상으로부터 모자이크 영상을 구하기 위한 특징점 기반 블록 움직임 추출 방법에서 정확도를 높이고 계산 시간을 줄이기 위해 다해상도(multi-resolution)영상을 이용한 계층적 특징점 기반 블록 움직임 추출 방법을 제시하였다. 초음파 영상에서의 Speckle 노이즈의 영향을 줄이기 위해 저해상도의 영상에서 특징점을 추출하고, 계산 시간을 줄이기 위해 저해상도 영상의 추정된 움직임을 고해상도 영상의 움직임 추정에 적용하여 탐색 범위를 줄였다. 그 결과 계산 시간을 개선하면서 모자이크 영상의 정확도를 높일 수 있었다.

최근 키오스크 사용 비중이 커짐으로써 그에 따른 사용자들의 개인 정보에 대한 보안 위협이 증가하였다. 호텔과 같은 숙박업소에서 이용하는 키오스크의 경우 체크인을 하기 위해 사용자들의 개인정보를 입력하는 것은 물론 숙박하는 호실의 정보도 가지고 있다. 이 경우 정보 유출 시 개인 정보 유출 이외의 다른 범죄가 발생할 수 있다. 이와 같은 키오스크 보안의 한계점을 보완하기 위해 본 논문에서는 Tendermint 기반의 블록체인을 이용하여 기존 일방향적인 결제 시스템을 지닌 기존 키오스크 체크인 시스템의 단점을 보완하고 키오스크 체크인의 보안성 및 신뢰성을 강화하는 방법을 제안한다.

H.264 suggests applying a 2-D 6-tap wiener filter to realize the interpolation for half-pixel positions, followed by a bilinear interpolation to get the data of quarter-pixels precision. This method is comparatively simpler; however, it only considers the affection of 4-connection neighborhood ignoring the influence that comes from the changing rate between respective neighborhoods. As a result, it has the characteristics of a Low-pass filter under the risk of losing high-frequency weights. The Cubic interpolation uses the gray-values within the larger regions of points to be sampled for interpolation. Nevertheless, the cubic interpolation is more complicated and computational. We give a deep analysis on the features while applying both bilinear and cubic interpolation in H.264 presenting a proper selection of interpolation algorithm with respect to specific distribution of gray-value in a certain grand block. The experiments point out that load far motion searching and interpolation are reduced when promoting the precision of interpolation simultaneously.
