Bending strength of an internal gear tooth is discussed as tooth form factor taking into account the actual stress magnitude. Stress analysis was carried out by the finite element method(FEM) for the calculation of tooth form factor of an internal gear. This paper also investigated the influences of number of teeth and addendum modification coefficient of the internal gear and the influences of number of teeth, addendum modification coefficient, pressure angle, radius of rounding of tooth tip, and bottom clearance coefficient of the pinion-shaped cutter on tooth form factor of internal gear. Generalizing the resultant data, a simple formula for the tooth form factor of an internal gear was derived for the calculation of tooth bending strength of an internal gear.

A kinematically admissible velocity field for closed-die forging of spur gear is proposed. The velocity field is divided into three regions of deformation. In the analysis, the involute curve is approximated to be straight line and the upper-bound method is used to calculate energy dissipation rate. A constant frictional factor has been assumed on the contacting surfaces. The effects of root diameter relative pressure is independent of root diameter for the same number of teeth, but increases with the number of teeth on a given root diameter. In the presence of friction, relative forging pressure increases with increasing root diameter at the start of forging, but decreases with increasing root diameter in the processing of forging.

This paper describes a new procedure to develop a systems model of a universal motor based on finite element analysis. The purpose of this paper optimized fabrication of Universal Motor for improving its efficiency and performance and driving range. To do this, various design parameters are set such as a number of teeth and stator shape, etc. As results, the optimized model has made good improvement compared with those of the initial.

This study was intended to develop the design theory of the threshing unit of a head-feeding rice combine. It may be applied for various combining capacities with different cutting widths and forward speeds. Design factors in the theoretical development are : (1) dimensions of the threshing drum, (2) tooth approching angle, (3) distance between the adjacent teeth on their spiral setting line, (4) number of spirals, and (5) total number of teeth on the drum. A computer simulation program was developed to predict the proper dimensions for the threshing drum and tooth arrangement. A simulation for the prospective combine with varied capacities was also demonstrated. The parameters analyzed in the developed design theory were shown to be consistent with those of existing combines.

This paper deals with the stator design solution of a synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) with various slot number by loss & torque evaluations related to the slot open, teeth width using coupled Preisach modeling & FEM. The coupled Finite Elements Analysis (FEA) & Preisach model have been used to evaluate the nonlinear solution. Comparisons are given with characteristics of a SynRM according to the stator winding, slot number, slot open, teeth width variation, respectively

A total of 130 extracted human maxillary second molars were used to study the configuration of the floor of the pulp chamber. The specimens were ground and the pulp chamber was examined with a magnifier and explored with sharp explorer. The study showed the shape of the pulp chamber, number of root canals, and the type of canal orifice. The results were as follows; 1. In so far as observing the shape of the pulp chamber of the teeth, 16.9% of the teeth were quadrilateral, 70.0% were triangle and 13.1% were ovoid shape. 2. 13.1% of the specimens have 4 root canal orifices. 73.9% have 3 root canal orifices, 11.5% have 2 root canal orifices and 1.5% have single orifice. 3. 13.1% of the specimens have 2 mesio-buccal canal orifices and among the teeth those have 3 canals, 20.8% show 'Y' shape, 29.1% show straight line and 23.8% show obtuse triangle shape.

Oval gears are typical kinds of non-circular gears and are widely used in flow meters. This paper presents a tooth profile design of an oval gear according to the curvature of the pitch curve. The length of the pitch oval is divided by the number of teeth and the curvature of the divided points is obtained. The tooth profile is designed on the circle of the curvature as if it is the pitch circle of a gear. The teeth of the oval gear have the same module and pressure angle, but the pitch circle of each tooth differs in size. Thus, the teeth on the divided points of the pitch oval are different in shape. This type of oval gear will improve the meshing properties.

The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical outcomes of active periodontal therapy (APT) and supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) through loss of teeth in the Korean patients with aggressive periodontitis. The number of missing and residual teeth, probing pocket depth were examined in 33 patients diagnosed with aggressive periodontitis at the baseline and who had participated in APT and SPT for 3 years or more. A 20 and 3 teeth were lost during the APT and SPT, respectively. The mean tooth loss rate of 0.13 per patient and year. There was no significant statistical difference in clinical improvement between the smoker and non-smoker groups. Within the limitation of this study, APT combined with supportive therapy could decrease the risk of tooth loss in patients suffering from aggressive periodontitis.

Thirty seven human maxillary third mooars were injected with china ink, decalcified, cleared, and used in vitro study to determine the number of root canals the frequency and location of lateral canals, canals per root, and frequency of apical deltas. The results were as follows: 1. Less than half of the examined teeth showed 3 roots and 3 canals. 2. The mesiobuccal root was ound to contain a single primary canal in 65.4% of the teeth examined and two canals in 34.6% of the teeth studed. 3. In mesiobuccal roots with two canals, the separated apical foramen appeared 30.8% of the specimen concerned, but no common apical foramen appeared. 4. Of the 106 canals studied, 46.2% of the canals were found to contain lateral canals and these ramifications were mainly located in the apical third of the root.

Sixty six mandibular incisor were injected with China ink, decalcified, cleared and used to study the number of root canals, the frequency and location of lateral canals, the location of apical foramens, the frequency of apical deltas, and the curvature of root canals. The results were as follows: 1. Most of the teeth demonstrated single canal, but 19.7% of the teeth were found to have bifurcated canals. 2. 12% of the teeth were found to have lateral canals and these ramifications were located in the apical third of the root. 3. 25 apical foramens were located directly on the root apex and 41 foramens laterally. 4. 43 canals showed straight, 7 canals distal curvature, 7 labial curvature, 3 mesial curvature.
