It is clinically well known that pre-tension of wires increases the fracture stability in ring or hybrid external fixation. In some cases, additional half pin should be necessary to increase the stability when soft tissue impalement occurs during fixation. In this paper, the fracture stability of a hybrid external fixator system with different pre-tension effects and additional half-pins was analysed using FEM to investigate the effects of these pre-tension and half pin on the system stability quantitatively. 3-D finite element models of five different fixator frames were developed using by beam elements. In axial compression analysis, the fracture stiffness was increased maximally 62％ as the pre-tension increased. In torsion analysis, in the other hand, there is little variations in the fracture stiffness. Additional half pin increased the system stiffness about 200 ％. From the results, proper pre-tension and additional half pin would provide good methods to increase the fracture stability of the hybrid external fixator and provide more surgical options to minimize soft tissue damage at the fracture site.

Objectives: Buccal fracture of the mandibular proximal bone segment during bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) reduces the postoperative stability. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of this type of fracture on bone healing and postoperative stability after mandibular setback surgery. Materials and Methods: Ten patients who experienced buccal fracture during SSRO for mandibular setback movement were evaluated. We measured the amount of bone generation on a computed tomography scan, using an image analysis program, and compared the buccal fracture side to the opposite side in each patient. To investigate the effect on postoperative stability, we measured the postoperative relapse in lateral cephalograms, immediately following and six months after the surgery. The control group consisted of ten randomly-selected patients having a similar amount of set-back without buccal fracture. Results: Less bone generation was observed on the buccal fracture side compared with the opposite side (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in anterior-posterior postoperative relapse between the group with buccal fracture and the control group. The increased mandibular plane angle and anterior facial height after the surgery in the group with buccal fracture manifested as a postoperative clockwise rotation of the mandible. Conclusion: Bone generation was delayed compared to the opposite side. However, postoperative stability in the anterior-posterior direction could be maintained with rigid fixation.

방파제의 경사면에 거치된 콘크리트 피복재의 단면파괴에 대한 신뢰성 해석을 수행하였다. 신뢰함수는 피복재의 흔들림 또는 동요의 크기를 정량적으로 나타내는 회전각의 함수로 유도되었다. 방파제 단면에 거치된 피복재의 재질적 성질 및 기하학적 형상과 관련된 확률변수들의 단면파괴에 미치는 영향 정도가 자세히 해석되었다. 또한 파고의 함수로 피복재 개개의 단면파괴에 대한 파괴확률이 산정 되었다. 마지막으로 Bernoulli과정과 허용파손율의 개념을 동시에 고려하여 피복재의 단면파괴가 어떻게 방파제 제체의 파괴확률로 이어지는가가 해석되었다. 허용파손율 개념은 본 연구에서 도입된 것으로, 허용파손율을 어떻게 정의하느냐에 따라 피복재의 단면파괴에 의하여 유발되는 방파제 제체의 파괴확률이 다르게 거동되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다 따라서 상대적으로 수심이 깊은 곳에 중량이 큰 콘크리트 피복재를 사용하여 방파제를 설계할 때는 수리학적 안전성뿐만 아니라 구조적 안전성도 중요하게 고려되어야 한다.

The fracture behavior and mechanical characteristics of sintered rare-earth magnets were investigated. It shows that the fracture behavior and bending strength of the magnets obviously exhibit anisotropy. Sm-Co magnets tend to cleavage fracture in the close-packed (0001) plane or in the ($10\bar{1}1$) plane. The fracture mechanism of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ magnet mainly appears to be intergranular fracture. The anisotropy of fracture behavior and mechanical strength of sintered rare-earth magnets is caused mainly by the strong crystal-structure anisotropy and the grain alignment texture. The effects of Nd content, and Pr, Dy substitution on the impact stability of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ magnets were also reported.

This study examined the effects of the epoxidized castor oil (ECO) and $Al_2O_3$ content on the thermal stability and fracture toughness of the diglycidylether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA)/ECO/$Al_2O_3$ ternary composites using a range of techniques. The thermal stability of the composites was decreased by the addition of ECO and $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles. The fracture toughness of the composites was improved significantly by the addition of ECO and $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles. The composite containing 3 wt % $Al_2O_3$ nanoparticles showed the maximum flexural strength. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed tortuous cracks in the DGEBA/ECO/$Al_2O_3$ composites, which prevented deformation and crack propagation.

An analytical fracture mechanics approach was used to investigate the fracture behavior of reinforced concrete beams. By use of this approach based on fracture mechanics concepts, the crack width and length as well as the strength and cracking stability of reinforced concrete beams were investigated. The results obtained from the analytical studies were also discussed in terms of the minimum reinforcement ratio and crack width specified in design code provisions. The analytical approach based on fracture mechanics concepts are very useful to predict the fracture behavior of reinforced concrete beams.

후방 십자 인대 손상에서 일차 복원술이 가능한 대퇴 부착부 파열과 경골 부착부 견열 골절환자를 대상으로 손상 부위와 동반 인대 손상 유무에 따른 후방 안정성과 주관적, 객관적 기능의 평가에서 Lysholm 기능 평가상 대퇴 부착부 손상군(85.3점)이 경골 부착부 견열 골절군(96.3점)에 비해 결과가 불량하였다(p<0.05). 그러나 단독 후방 십자 인대 손상군(91.1점)은 복합 인대 손상군(86.6점)에 비해 양호하였으나 통계적인 유의성은 없었다. 후방 십자 인대의 불안정성 정도는 후방 긴장성 사진과 KT 2000 슬관절계 검사상 대퇴 부착부 손상군보다 경골 견열 골절 손상군에서 나은 경향을 보이나 통계적인 유의성은 없었다. 또한 olecranization 시행은 후방 안정성에서 시행한 군이 나은 경향을 보여 심한 후방 불안정성이 있는 경우 수술 후 초기에 일시적인 후방 안정성에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Thermal effect has great influence on wellbore stability in Dongfang 1-1 (DF 1-1) gas field, a reservoir with high-temperature and high-pressure. In order to analyze the wellbore stability in DF1-1 gas field, the variation of temperature field after drilling was analyzed. In addition, the effect of temperature changing on formation strength and the thermal expansion coefficients of formation were tested. On this basis, a wellbore stability model considering thermal effect was developed and the thermal effect on fracture pressure and collapse pressure was analyzed. One of the main challenges in this gas field is the decreasing temperature of the wellbore will reduce fracture pressure substantially, resulting in the drilling fluid leakage. If the drilling fluid density was reduced, kick or blowout may happen. Therefore, the key of safe drilling in DF1-1 gas field is to predict the fracture pressure accurately.

iepicondylar fracture of the humerus is very rare in adults. To date, there have been limited evidence of this injury in the English literature. We report a case of a 65-year-old female with a biepicondylar fracture of the left distal humerus without dislocation. Open reduction and internal fixation with K-wires, cannulated screw, and suture anchor were performed. We obtained stability of the elbow and a satisfactory functional outcome. Because this type of injury is associated with varus and valgus instability, operative reduction and fixation are essential in order to gain stability and early recovery of normal function.
