Objectives: The purpose of this study was to confirm the influence of commercially available carbonated water on denture resin by confirming the changes in the denture surface and adhesion of bacteria. Methods: Carbonated water available in the domestic market was used on specimens made of prosthetic resins. The top four products with respect to sales performance was deposited for 30 min, 24 h, and 48 h over the study groups and over one control group. The surface roughness was measured. Candida albicans was inoculated and cultured over these dentures at 37℃ on the study groups of 1 h, 24 h, and 48 h, and the number of colonies formed was measured. Results: As a result of comparing the surface roughness between groups by immersion time, the difference between groups was confirmed at 48 hours. The Trevi group showed a larger Rz than the Samdasoo group. As a result of comparing the surface roughness by time in each group, statistical significance was shown in the Ra value of the Seagram and the Rz value of the Chojung sparkling water (p<0.05). The Ra value of the Seagram was higher for 48 h than for 30 min, and the Rz value of the Chojung sparkling water was higher at 48 h than at 30 min (p<0.05). Candida albicans concentration increased over the course of immersion. Conclusions: It was confirmed that longer the specimen of the denture resin was immersed in carbonated water, more the surface roughness was affected and higher the number of attached bacteria.

This paper introduces PGD(Preprocessed Givens Downdating)and PHD(Preprocessed Hyperbolic Downdating) algorithms, wherein a multiple-row observation matrix $Z^T$ is factorized into a partial Cholesky factor Rz, such that $Z^T$ = $Q_zR_z, Q_zQ^T_z=I$, and then Rz is recursively downdated by using GD(Givens Downdating)and HD(Hyperbolic Dondating), respectively. Time complexities of PGD and PHD algorithms are $pn^2$ ＋ $5n^3/6$ 및 $pn^2$＋$n^3/3$ flops, respectively, if p$\geq$n, while those of the existing GD and HD are known to be $5pn^2/2$ and $2pn^2$ flops,, respectively. This concludes that the factorization of observation matrices, which we call preprocessing, would improve the overall performance of the downdating process. Benchmarks on the Sun SPARC/2 system also show that preprocessing would shorten the required downdating times compared to those of downdatings without preprocessing. Furthermore, benchmarks also show that PHD provides better performance than PGD.

This study was carried out to investigate a influence of humidity variation (%) on the magnetic properties and the surface flaws in the fabrication of Fe-based $Fe_{78}Si_9B_{13}$ amorphous alloy ribbon by Planar Flow Casting process. As a result, the size of the air pocket and the droplet which is observed in the contact surface and the free face of the amorphous alloy ribbon becomes large when the humidity increases and the size highly increases with the surface roughness at the same time. Especially, the surface roughness value which is made in the 65 % of the humidity is the lowest in the contact surface ($Ra=0.60{\mu}m$, $Rz=3.11{\mu}m$) and the free face ($Ra=0.47{\mu}m$, $Rz=3.00{\mu}m$). Also, in case of the soft magnetic property of the magnetic core which is made with the toroidal core of $23(OD)^*20(ID)^*20(H)$ size, in the sample of the amorphous alloy ribbon which is made in 65% of the humidity, the most excellent value is gained as $B_s(B_{700})=1.055T$, $H_c=0.083Oe$, permeability = 1,197 and core loss = 0.276W/kg.

Two-Color photoelectric observations were made at Flower and Cook Observatory, University of Pennsylvania. Since the spectroscopic elements are available for the system, derivation of an absolute physical dimension is now expected to be feasible. Results of computation of the orbital elements lead to a fact that the system shows an annular eclipse rather than a partial which is a finding reported by Shapley.

In this paper, a comprehensive design of HBC(Human Body Communication) system for capsule endoscope is presented. First, we propose a method of combining the signals received from multiple patches attached to the body of patient through differential operation and derive the signal SNR mathematically. To synchronize HBC transmission signal sent from capsule, we analyzed coarse timing synchronization method using PN code and fine timing synchronization performance among Manchester, NRZ and RZ modulation method using ZCD(Zero Crossing Detector). In addition, we evaluated the equalization performance of HBC signal frame in Rician and Rayleigh channel environments by applying LMS and RLS algorithm.

Most of modern mobile communication systems require low distortion in addition to high power and high efficiency characteristics for power amplifiers. The power amplifiers cause adjacent channel interference by intermodulation and spectral regrowth. In order to analyze the effects of the power amplifier on communication system, a 22Mcps spreaded digital modulated signal source and a ISM band power amplifier have been constructed, ACPR characteristics are simulated and measured for the RZ and NRZ encoded signals.

In this paper, we have studied a dimming level control method to satisfy both lighting and communication performance in visible light communication system. In the case of the most commonly used OOK and RZ-OOK modulation schemes, continuous Burst Zero Duration will seriously degrade the lighting function. This causes not only the illumination but also the performance of the entire system to deteriorate. Through this study, we analyzed the dimming level characteristics of the existing system and proposed the Illegal Pulse Insertion (IPI) algorithm as a technique to increase the dimming level. Through this, it is possible to effectively control the dimming level and improve the QoS of both lighting and communication by resolving the flicker phenomenon and dimming level reduction in the existing modulation and demodulation system.

In this paper, we used the inter-bit noise detection method in order to reduce the effects of noise light in a visible light identification system that uses a visible LED as a carrier source. A visible light identification system consists of a reader and a transponder. When the enable signal from the reader is detected, the transponder encodes the response data in RZ(Return-to-Zero) bit stream and sends response signal by modulating a visible LED. The reader detects the response signal mixed with noise light, samples the noise voltage in each blank low time between data bits of the RZ signal, and recovers the original data by subtracting the sampled noise from the received signal. In experiments, we improved the signal-to-noise ratio by 20dB using the inter-bit noise detection method.

The surface rolling for cylindrical surface of a grey cast iron was carried out using a lathe with a simple newly-designed tool system. A surface rolling tool used was steel ball whose diameter was 3/8 inch (9.525mm) The effects of rolling feeds and number of rolling on surface rolling were investigated. The contact pressure between ball and workpiece which was considered as Hertz's contact problem was examined and the track of motion of a ball on the cylindrical surface of a work- piece was measured according to the rolling feed. The results obtained were as follows; 1. The roughness of the machined surface which was originally 5.3 .approx. 28 umRz decreased to 1.2 .approx. 5 umRz according to rolling feeds and numbers of rolling. 2. The hardness increased from Hv 260 to Hv 290 .approx. 310 through 2 .approx. 4 rollings according to the roughness of machined surfaces. 3. The reduction of diameter was found to be proportional to the variations of roughness of previous machined surfaces. About 60% to 90% of reduction in diameter was made during the first rolling process. 4. An equation relating the reduction of diameter and the variation of surface roughness after surface rolling was presented using a geometric surface model. 5. An equation for the calculation of dynamic contact area between pressure ball and workpiece according to the rolling feed was presented.
