Purpose : Plantar surfaces, calcaneal area, and region of Achilles insertion, which are extremely related with weight-bearing area and shoes application, must be reconstructed with glabrous and strong fibrous skin. Numerous methods of reconstructing defects of these regions have been advocated, but the transfer of similar local tissue as a cutaneous flap with preservation of sensory potential would best serve the functional needs of the weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing surfaces of this region. Therefore it is recommended to use the limited skin of medial surface of foot that is similar to plantar region and non-weight-bearing area. In this paper we performed the medial plantar flap transfered as a fasciocutaneous island as one alterative for moderate-sized defects of the plantar forefoot, plantar heel, and area around the ankle in 25 cases and report the result, availability and problem of medial plantar flap. Materials and methods : We performed proximally based medial plantar flap in 22 cases and reverse flow island flap in 3 cases. Average age was $36.5(4{\sim}70)$ years and female was 3 cases. The causes of soft tissue defect were crushing injury on foot 4 cases, small bony exposure at lower leg 1 case, posterior heel defect with exposure of calcaneus 8 cases, severe sore at heel 2 cases, skin necrosis after trauma on posterior foot 4 cases, and defect on insertion area of Achilles tendon 6cases. Average follow up duration was 1.8(7 months-9.5 years) years. Results: Medial plantar flaps was successful in 22 patients. 18 patients preserved cutaneous branches of medial plantar nerve had sensation on transfered flap but diminished sensation or dysesthesia. At the follow up, we found there were no skin ulceration, recurrence of defect or skin breakdown in all 18 patients. But there was one case which occurred skin ulceration postoperatively among another 4 cases not contained medial plantar nerve. At the last follow up, all patients complained diminished sensation and paresthesia at medial plantar area distally to donor site, expecially with 4 patients having severe pain and discomfort during long-time walking. Conclusion : Medial plantar island flap based on medial plantar neurovascualr pedicle have low failure rate with strong fibrous skin and preserve sensibility of flap, so that it is useful method to reconstruct the skin and soft tissue defect of foot. But it should be emphasized that there are some complications such like pain and paresthesia by neuropraxia or injury of medial plantar nerve at more distal area than donor site. We may consider that medial plantar flap have limited flap size and small arc of rotation, and require skin graft closure of the donor defect and must chose this flap deliberately.

Purpose : To observe the patency of anastomosis site and the findings of circulation of grafted fibula in osteonecrosis of femoral head treated with vascularized fibular graft by use of digital subtraction angiography. Materials and Methods : 17 cases of 11 patients who underwent vascularized fibula graft for osteonecrosis of femoral head. We performed digital subtraction angiography(DSA) for them at second week postoperatively in 12 cases, at sixth week in 1 case, at sixth month in 2 cases, at twelfth month in 1 case, and eighteenth month in 1 case which had been got DSA at second week before. We observe the patency of pedicle, and the circulation of grafted fibula such as periosteal and intraosseous vessels with time. Results : All cases except one which were thought failure of selective angiogram showed good passage of blood flow through anstomosed pedicle on DSA. We found the differences in appearance of circulation of grafted fibula with time. DSA at 2nd and 6th week postoperatively revealed both of periosteal and intraosseous vessels along the fibula and blood pooling at the tip of fibula. DSA at 6th month showed maintenance of periosteal and intraosseous vessels along the fibula but did not clearly reveal blood pooling at the tip of fibula. The findings of DSA at 12th and 18th month were similar each other. The periosteal vessels were not seen as the grafted fibular bone were incorporated into surrounding femoral bone but intraosseous vessels were still seen. Conclusion : It was thought that DSA could be used for evaluation of the status of pedicle including anastomsed site and vessels of grafted fibula with time. The periosteal vessels of fibula were decreased with time but intraosseous vessels were still seen until 18th month after vascularized fibula graft.

Opening of fractures induced by shear dilation or normal deformation can be a significant source of fracture permeability change in fractured rock, which is important for the performance assessment of geological repositories for spent nuclear fuel. As the repository generates heat and later cools the fluid-carrying ability of the rocks becomes a dynamic variable during the lifespan of the repository. Heating causes expansion of the rock close to the repository and, at the same time, contraction close to the surface. During the cooling phase of the repository, the opposite takes place. Heating and cooling together with the, virgin stress can induce shear dilation of fractures and deformation zones and change the flow field around the repository. The objectives of this work are to examine the contribution of thermal stress to the shear slip of fracture in mid- and far-field around a KBS-3 type of repository and to investigate the effect of evolution of stress on the rock mass permeability. In the first part of this study, zones of fracture shear slip were examined by conducting a three-dimensional, thermo-mechanical analysis of a spent fuel repository model in the size of 2 km $\times$ 2 km $\times$ 800 m. Stress evolutions of importance for fracture shear slip are: (1) comparatively high horizontal compressive thermal stress at the repository level, (2) generation of vertical tensile thermal stress right above the repository, (3) horizontal tensile stress near the surface, which can induce tensile failure, and generation of shear stresses at the comers of the repository. In the second part of the study, fracture data from Forsmark, Sweden is used to establish fracture network models (DFN). Stress paths obtained from the thermo-mechanical analysis were used as boundary conditions in DFN-DEM (Discrete Element Method) analysis of six DFN models at the repository level. Increases of permeability up to a factor of four were observed during thermal loading history and shear dilation of fractures was not recovered after cooling of the repository. An understanding of the stress path and potential areas of slip induced shear dilation and related permeability changes during the lifetime of a repository for spent nuclear fuel is of utmost importance for analysing long-term safety. The result of this study will assist in identifying critical areas around a repository where fracture shear slip is likely to develop. The presentation also includes a brief introduction to the ongoing site investigation on two candidate sites for geological repository in Sweden.

A disease of young Holstein calves characterized by recurrent pneumonia, ulcerative and granulomatous stomatitis, enteritis with bacterial overgrowth, periodontitis, delayed wound healing, persistent neutrophilia and death at an early age had been originally described in 1983 and again in 1987. Most of these calves had stunted growth and a persistent, progressive neutrophilia (often exceeding 100,000/ml). By investigation of pedigrees, all of the affected calves have now been traced to a common sire and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) diagnostic DNA testing to be homozygous carriers of a defective allele for bovine CD18. Neutrophils from these calves have several functional deficits and, most importantly, fail to adhere in a ${\beta}_2$-integrin dependent manner. The ${\beta}_2$-integrins represent a family of glycoproteins which participate in various leukocyte adhesion reactions during host defense. The presence or absence of ${\beta}_2$-integrin molecules can be demonstrated on the surface of neutrophils, monocytes and lymphocytes from normal or affected calves using specific monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry, or by colloidal gold immunolabeling and scanning electron microscopy in backscatter mode. Deficiency of the ${\beta}_2$-integrins on all leukocyte types in Holstein calves is analogous to leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) seen in humans. Neutrophils in bovine (BLAD) and human LAD patients are unable to adhere to the endothelial lining of the cardiovascular system thus interrupting egression of neutrophils into infected tissues. Other leukocytes, while still deficient in expression of the ${\beta}_2$-integrins, are still able to efficiently egress from the blood stream due to interactions of other adhesion molecules that are not as highly expressed on neutrophils. Both BLAD cattle and LAD children (who do not receive bone marrow transplants) often die at an early age as a result of the failure of neutrophils to extravasate into infected tissues. In 1991, Shuster, et $al^{27}$, identified two point mutations within the alleles encoding bovine CD18 in a Holstein calf afflicted with leukocyte adhesion deficiency. One mutation causes an aspartic acid to glycine substitution at amino acid 128 (D128G) in an extracellular region of this adhesion glycoprotein that is highly conserved (> 95% identity) between humans, cattle and mice. The other mutation is silent. Numerous calves with clinical symptoms of leukocyte adhesion deficiency have since been tested and all have been found homozygous for the D128G allele. In addition, calves homozygous far the D128G allele have been identified during widespread DNA testing in the United States. All cattle with the mutant allele are related to one bull, who through artificial insemination (A.I.), sired many calves in the 1950's and 1960's. The carrier frequency of the D128G CD18 allele among U.S. Holstein cattle had reached approximately 15% among active A.I. bulls and 8% among cows. By 1993, the organization of the dairy industry and the diagnostic test developed to genotype cattle, enabled virtually complete eradication of bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency among current and future A.I. bulls.

폴리카보네이트/폴리(부틸렌 테레프탈레이트)(PC/PBT) 블렌드에 대해 용융혼합 과정에서 에스테르 교환반응 거동을 조사하였고, PC/PBT 혼합비에 따른 유변학적 특성, 파괴거동 및 파단면 모폴로지를 조사하였다. FT-IR 및 $^1H-NMR$ 분석을 통해 용융혼합 중에 PC와 PBT간 에스테르화 반응이 일어남을 확인하였다. PC 함량이 증가할수록 용융지수(MI)는 감소하여 PC의 높은 흐름저항성을 확인하였다. 또한 PC 함량이 증가할수록 저장 및 손실 탄성률은 증가하였고, Cole-Cole 도시로부터 PC/PBT 블렌드의 경우 혼합비에 관계없이 유변학적 상용성은 나타내지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 인장강도는 PC 함량이 증가함에 따라 선형적인 증가를 나타내었다. 충격강도의 경우 PC 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였는데, 약 $30{\sim}40wt%$ 범위에서 가장 급격한 증가폭을 나타내었고, 50 wt% 이상의 범위에서는 거의 일정한 값을 나타내었다. 충격 파단면을 관찰한 결과 약 40 wt% 이상의 범위에서부터 충격방향으로 거친 파괴 릿지(ridge)가 형성되어서 높은 충격강도를 나타낸 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 하위 요소로(sub-element) 구성된 3차원 대칭 단위 요소들로 조합된 트러스 격자 구조물의 연속적인 물성치를 제안하였다. 개별적인 트러스 격자 물성치는 균질화 작업을 통하여 유효한 응력과 변형률 관계로 이루어진 연속적인 물성치 모델로 나타낼 수 있다. 미시적인 규모(micro scale) 스트럿의 인장이나 압축 응답에 의한 축강성은 전체 격자재료의 대부분의 강도를 차지하고, 이러한 스트럿의 부피 분율(fraction)은 효과적인 강도뿐만 아니라 복제 가능한 단위 요소로 이루어진 격자판의 상대밀도에 큰 영향을 주었다. 그러므로 균질한 강성부재로 구성된 연속적인 구성모델은 미시적인 규모로 간주되는 스트럿의 강도, 내부응력 상태 및 부피 분율과 관련된 역학적인 특성들을 포함하고 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 미시적인 규모의 응력에서 소성흐름은 균질한 구성식에서 파생된 거시적인 규모에서의 (macro-scale)응력 표면에 있는 연속적인 응력함수의 영역을 확장한다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 3차원 대칭 단위요소 구조물의 기본 기하학을 조사하고 압력에 의존적인 마크로 규모에서의 (macro-scale) 응력함수를 예측하는 연속적인 소성모델을 공식화하였다.

Statement of problem. Soft lining materials, also referred to as tissue conditioning materials, tissue heating materials, relining materials, soft liners or tissue conditioners, were first introduced to dentistry by a plastic manufacturer in 1959. Since the introduction of the materials to the dental field, their material properties have been continually improved through the effort of many researchers. Soft lining materials have become widely accepted, particularly by prosthodontists, because of their numerous clinical advantages and ease of manipulation. Unfortunately, few reports have been issued upon the topic of increasing the bond strength between the base metal alloy used in cast denture bases and PMMA soft liner modified with 4-META, nor upon the pattern of debonding and material change in wet environment like a intra oral situation. Purpose. The purposes of this study were comparing the bond strength between base metal alloy used for the cast denture bases and PMMA soft liner modified with 4-META, and describing the pattern of debonding and material property change in wet environment like the intraoral situation. Material and Methods. This study consisted of four experiments: 1. The in vitro measurement of shear bond strength of the adhesive soft liner. 2. The in vitro measurement of shear bond strength of the adhesive soft liner after 2 weeks of aging. 3. A comparison of debonding patterns. 4. An evaluation the Relation time of modified soft liner. The soft liner used in this study was commercially available as Coe-soft (GC America.IL.,USA), which is provided in forms of powder and liquid. This is a PMMA soft liner commonly used in dental clinics. The metal primer used in this study was 4-META containing primer packed in Meta fast denture base resin (Sun Medical Co., Osaka, Japan). The specimens were formed in a single lap joint desist which is useful for evaluating the apparent shear bond strength of adhesively bonded metal plate by tensile loading. Using the $20{\times}20mm$ transparent grid, percent area of adhesive soft liner remaining on the shear area was calculated to classify the debonding patterns. To evaluate the change of the initial flow of the modified adhesive soft liner, the gelation time was measured with an oscillating rheometer (Haake RS150W/ TC50, Haake Co., Germany). It was a stress control and parallel plate type with the diameter of 35mm. Conclusion. Within the conditions and limitations of this study, the following conclusions were drawn as follows. 1. There was significant increase of bond strength in the 5% 4-META, 10% 4-META containing groups and in the primer coated groups versus the control group(P<0.05). 2. After 2 weeks of aging, no significant increase in bond strength was found except for the group containing 10% 4-META (P<0.05). 3. The gelation times of the modified soft liner were 9.3 minutes for the 5% 4-META containing liner and 11.5 minutes for the 10% 4-META liner. 4. The debonding patterns of the 4-META containing group after 2 weeks of aging were similar to those of immediaely after preparation, but the debonding pattern of the primer group showed more adhesive failure after 2 weeks of aging.

하천 홍수해석 분야에서 가장 널리 이용되고 있는 1차원 동수역학 수치모형의 입력자료는 상하류단 경계조건, 조도계수, 하도단면 등이며, 계산 시간간격 및 거리간격의 선정은 계산결과의 정확성, 안정성, 효율성 확보를 위한 핵심 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 단면간격 선정기법의 이론적 배경을 검토하였고, 매 시간단계별로 도출되는 흐름특성을 반영하여 계산거리간격을 추정하는 가변 계산거리간격 추정 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 기법을 1차원 부정류 수치모형과 연계하여 Teton 댐 붕괴 및 한강 홍수 사상에 대해 적용함으로써 기존 고정 계산거리간격 추정 기법에 의한 해석결과와 비교하였다. 더 많은 내삽단면이 사용될 경우, 수치 수렴성 실험 결과는 수치해의 정확성과 안정성이 높아짐을 나타내었고, 본 연구에서 제안된 기법은 기존 고정 계산거리간격 추정기법보다 적은 단면개수로 동일한 정도의 정확도를 나타냄으로써 계산 효율성을 크게 향상시켰다. 본 연구에서 개발된 기법의 실무적용을 통해 정확성과 안정성뿐만 아니라 높은 효율성을 갖는 하천 홍수해석이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
