Computer-aided technology는 최근 치과 치료의 흐름이다. DENTCA$^{TM}$ CAD/CAM denture (DENTCA Inc.)는 상용화된 computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) 의치 시스템 중 하나로, 한 번의 내원을 통해 의치 제작에 필요한 환자의 모든 정보를 획득하여, 이 정보를 컴퓨터에 저장하고 3D 프린팅을 통해 두 번째 내원 시에 의치 장착을 목표로 한다. 현재까지 여러 증례들은 총의치 제작에 대한 CAD/CAM system의 임상적 적용을 시험해 보았다. 본 증례는 두 명의 환자에서 DENTCA system을 이용한 의치와 전통적인 방법을 이용한 의치를 동시에 제작하여 DENTCA system의 효용성과 한계점을 고찰하였다.

Light Rail Transit (LRT) system is a complex and large system in which there are many subsystems, interfaces, functions and demanding performance requirements. Because many contractors participate in the development, it is necessary to apply methods of sharing common objectives and communicating effectively among all of the stakeholders. This paper shows not only the methodology and the results of computer-aided systems engineering including requirement management, functional analysis and architecting LRT system, but also propose a tool to help manage a project by linking WBS (Work Breakdown Structure), work organization and PBS (Product Breakdown Structure). The application of computer-aided tool RDD-100 provides the capability to model product design knowledge and decisions about important issues such as architecting the top-level system. The product design knowledge will be essential in integrating the following life-cycle phase activities over the life of the LRT system. Additionally, when a new generation train system is required, the reuse of the database can increase the system design productivity and effectiveness significantly.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been particularly widely adopted in medical fields. Application of the 3D printing technique has even been extended to bio-cell printing for 3D tissue/organ development, the creation of scaffolds for tissue engineering, and actual clinical application for various medical parts. Of various medical fields, craniofacial plastic surgery is one of areas that pioneered the use of the 3D printing concept. Rapid prototype technology was introduced in the 1990s to medicine via computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing. To investigate the current status of 3D printing technology and its clinical application, a systematic review of the literature was conducted. In addition, the benefits and possibilities of the clinical application of 3D printing in craniofacial surgery are reviewed, based on personal experiences with more than 500 craniofacial cases conducted using 3D printing tactile prototype models.

Dental computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology have rapidly progressed over the past 30 years. The technology, which can be used in the dental laboratory, the dental office and the form of production centers, has become more common in recent years. This technology is now applied to inlays, onlays, crowns, fixed partial dentures, removable partial denture frameworks, complete dentures, templates for implant installation, implant abutments, and even maxillofacial prostheses. Dentists and dental technicians, who want to use these techniques, should have certain basic knowledge about that. This article gives an overview of CAD/CAM technologies, histories and how it applies in prosthetic dentistry.

Closed reduction using acrylic splints with circummandibular fixation has been known to be useful techniques in pediatric mandibular fractures. However, this technique has some shortcomings, including needs for impression taking or additional laboratory process, which can increase the exposure time of general anesthesia or make an additional sedation visit. Recently, the advancement of computer-aided maxillofacial surgery offers to clinicians to expansion of its application. This case report represents a technique of computer-assisted virtual reconstruction and computer-aided designed splint fabrication in a 2-year-old boy with mandibular body fracture.

PURPOSE. To verify the influence of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) implant-supported prostheses manufactured with cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) and zirconia (Zr), and whether ceramic application, spark erosion, and simulation of masticatory cycles modify biomechanical parameters (marginal fit, screw-loosening torque, and strain) on the implant-supported system. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Ten full-arch fixed frameworks were manufactured by a CAD/CAM milling system with Co-Cr and Zr (n=5/group). The marginal fit between the abutment and frameworks was measured as stated by single-screw test. Screw-loosening torque evaluated screw stability, and strain analysis was explored on the implant-supported system. All analyses were performed at 3 distinct times: after framework manufacturing; after ceramic application in both materials' frameworks; and after the spark erosion in Co-Cr frameworks. Afterward, stability analysis was re-evaluated after 106 mechanical cycles (2 Hz/150-N) for both materials. Statistical analyses were performed by Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests (α=.05). RESULTS. No difference between the two materials was found for marginal fit, screwloosening torque, and strain after framework manufacturing (P>.05). Ceramic application did not affect the variables (P>.05). Spark erosion optimized marginal fit and strain medians for Co-Cr frameworks (P<.05). Screw-loosening torque was significantly reduced by masticatory simulation (P<.05) regardless of the framework materials. CONCLUSION. Co-Cr and Zr frameworks presented similar biomechanical behavior. Ceramic application had no effect on the biomechanical behavior of either material. Spark erosion was an effective technique to improve Co-Cr biomechanical behavior on the implant-supported system. Screw-loosening torque was reduced for both materials after masticatory simulation.

컴퓨터를 활용한 커뮤니케이션 기술의 발전은 디자인 환경에서 컴퓨터 그래픽스(Computer Graphics - 이하는 CG로 명명함)의 활용을 일반화하고 디자인의 표현 한계를 확대하게 되었다. 따라서 다양한 디자인 영역에 적합하게 적용할 수 있는 CG 활용의 기술과 방법은 디자인의 결과와 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 디자이너와 디자인 환경에 대한 경쟁력 의 요건이 되고 있다. 특히 학생들의 전문성을 책임져야 하는 대학의 교과과정에서 CG 응용에 관한 내용은 경쟁력 있는 교육적 성과가 더욱 요구되는 것이다. 이러한 의미에서 본 연구는 공업(제품)디자인 학과에 개설된 “컴퓨터 응용 디자인”이란 교과목의 내용을 중심으로 CG 활용 교육에 대한 방법론적인 접근을 한 것이다. 연구의 내용은 제품디자인의 표현내용을 중심으로 편성한 10개의 실습 과정에 대한 개념과 방법, 그리고 이를 실천한 학생들의 결과들을 사례로서 제시하였다. 이 과정에서 학생들이 제품 디자인과 CG 분야의 이해, 그리고 CG 프로그램의 구체적인 기능과 활용의 방법을 배우게 된 것을 성과라고 할 수 있다.

This paper deals with a computer aided control of an adjustment process for the complete electronic devices by means of an application of artificial neural network and an implementation of neuro-controller for intelligent control. Multi-layer neural network model is employed as artificial neural network with the learning method of the error back propagation. Information initially available from real plant under control are the initial values of plant output, and the augmented plant input and its corresponding plant output at that time. For the intelligent control of adjustment process utilizing artificial neural network, the neural network emulator (NNE) and the neural network controller(NNC) are developed. The initial weights of each neural network are determined through off line learning for the given product and it is also employed to cope with environments of the another product by on line learning. Computer simulation, as well as the application to the real situation of proposed intelligent control system is investigated.
