Distal-extension removable partial dentures have long been implicated in the increase in mobility and the destruction of the supporting structures of the primary abutment teeth. Various clasping systems have traditionally been used to retain distal extension removable partial dentures, and other designs have been proposed to minimize torquing forces on the abutment teeth. Most recent studies investigating the effects of removable partial dentures on abutment teeth have been performed in it laboratory setting. Results obtained from in vitro research have given dentists insight into removable partial denture design, but laboratory test model cannot be constructed that simulates actual functional or parafunctiona1 movements and forces. The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate the degree of tooth mobility produced by two clasping systems (suprabulge type and infrabulge type) used for distal extension removable partial dentures. Akers clasp and R.P.I. system were selected for the evaluation, and four patients required a distal extension removable partial denture on the mandibular arch were selected for participation in the study. Two partial dentures were constructed in the same condition expect the design of clasp. All abutments in the study were mandibular first or second premolars. Measurements of mobility were made with a research tool designed by $M\"{u}hlemann$. This instrument, periodontometer, measures tooth mobility in the mouth by means of a dial gauge accurated to 0.01mm when the tooth is stressed with a force meter. Lingual and buccal deflection of abutment tooth was measured using buccal and lingual pressure. The amount of force applied was 500gm. Tooth mobility tests were made at four key stages; 1. Before insertion of the first removable partial denture, baseline mobility was establsihed. 2. After wearing of the first prosthesis, measurement was made at weekly intervals for 4 weeks. 3. The removable partial denture was then taken from the patient, and tooth mobility was measured again at weekly intervals until the patient's established baseline mobility had returned. 4. The second prosthesis of different clasp design was worn for a month and evaluated in the same manner as the first. The sequence of placement of clasping system was alternated between patients. The following results were obtained from this study; 1. The mobility of abutment tooth increased during the initial stage of wear and returned to baseline mobility after removal of removable partial dentures. 2. The mobility of abutment tooth showed no difference between Akers clasp and I-bar clasp during the 4-week test period. 3. All teeth tested showed greater mobility toward the buccal than the lingual direction.

The machining accuracy has been improved with the development of NC machine tools and cutting tools. However, it is difficult to obtain a high degree of accuracy when machining deep pocket with long end mill, since machining accuracy is mainly dependant on the stiffness of the cutting tool. To improve surface accuracy in machining deep pocket using end mill, the performance by down cut and up cut is compared theoretically and experimentally. To verify usefulness of up milling, various experiments were carried out. As a result, it is found that up milling produce more accurate surface than down milling in machining deep pocket. For effective application of up milling, various values in helix angle, number of teeth, radial depth of cut and axial depth of cut are applied in experiment.

We developed the durability estimation and design systems to minimize the volume, considering the durability, efficiency, and design requirements of worm gears. That is, we consider each kind of factors affecting on durability on the basis of AGMA Standard for the cylindrical and double-enveloping worm gears. We also estimate input power on the basis of wear and durability, bending strength and deflection of worm shaft, and we developed the durability estimation and design systems of power transmission worm gears introducing the optimal design method on the personal computer to be easily used in field. Also, we developed a method which converts the design variables obtained from the optimal design method to integer values(number of worm threads, number of worm threads, number of worm wheel teeth, etc.,) to be used in real design and production. The developed durability estimation and design method can be easily applied to the design of worm gears used as power transmission devices in machineries and is expected to be used for weight minimization of worm gear unit.

Objectives: To evaluate the influence of the restorative technique on the mechanical response of endodontically-treated upper premolars with mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavity. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight premolars received MOD preparation (4 groups, n = 12) with different restorative techniques: glass ionomer cement + composite resin (the GIC group), a metallic post + composite resin (the MP group), a fiberglass post + composite resin (the FGP group), or no endodontic treatment + restoration with composite resin (the CR group). Cusp strain and load-bearing capacity were evaluated. One-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test were used with ${\alpha}=5%$. Finite element analysis (FEA) was used to calculate displacement and tensile stress for the teeth and restorations. Results: MP showed the highest cusp (p = 0.027) deflection ($24.28{\pm}5.09{\mu}m/{\mu}m$), followed by FGP ($20.61{\pm}5.05{\mu}m/{\mu}m$), CR ($17.62{\pm}7.00{\mu}m/{\mu}m$), and GIC ($17.62{\pm}7.00{\mu}m/{\mu}m$). For load-bearing, CR ($38.89{\pm}3.24N$) showed the highest, followed by GIC ($37.51{\pm}6.69N$), FGP ($29.80{\pm}10.03N$), and MP ($18.41{\pm}4.15N$) (p = 0.001) value. FEA showed similar behavior in the restorations in all groups, while MP showed the highest stress concentration in the tooth and post. Conclusions: There is no mechanical advantage in using intraradicular posts for endodontically-treated premolars requiring MOD restoration. Filling the pulp chamber with GIC and restoring the tooth with only CR showed the most promising results for cusp deflection, failure load, and stress distribution.

지금까지 다수의 연구자들에 의해 광중합형 복합 레진을 중합하는 방법에 있어서 광조사 강도, 시간을 조절하여 중합수축의 속도를 감소시키기 위한 시도가 있었으나, 간헐적 중합법에 관한 구체적인 연구가 부족하다. 이에 저자는 광중합 복합 레진을 간헐적으로 광중합시켜 기존의 연속 중합법과 비교하여 중합 수축의 속도를 측정하고 교두 변위에 대한 영향을 평가해 보고자 하였다. 실험에 사용된 수복 재료는 2종의 광중합형 복합 레진으로 Heliomolar와 Pyramid이며, 중합 수축량을 측정하기 위해 자체 제작한 Linometer (R&B Inc., Daejon, Korea)을 사용하였고 광중합시 광조사 차단장치를 시편과 Linometer 사이에 위치시켜 각각의 서로 다른 중합 주기: (1) 연속 광중합 (60초간 계속 광조사); (2) 2초 광조사, 1초 광차단 (90초 시행), (3) 1초 광조사, 1초 광차단 (120초 시행), (4) 1초 광조사, 2초 광차단 (180초 시행)로 중합시켰다. 군 별로 조사된 총에너지량이 동일하도록 중합 시간을 조절하였고, 최종 중합 수축량을 측정하였으며 중합 수축의 최고속도 ($R_{max}$)와 최고속도를 나타낸 peak time (PT)을 계산하였다. 교두 변위의 측정을 위해서는 각 군별로 10개의 건전한 상악 소구치에 변형시킨 제2급 와동을 형성한 다음 상아질 접착제를 도포하고 일정량의 복합 레진을 충전한 후 치아를 자체 제작된 치아 변위 측정기 (R&B Inc., Daejon, Korea)에 위치시켜 교두 변위양을 알아보았다. 통계분석은 ANOVA test를 이용하여 군 간의 비교를 하였고, 재료간의 비교를 위해서는 t-test를 시행하였다. 실험 결과는 1) 선수축량은 군 간에 차이가 없었고 (p > 0.05), Pyramid가 Heliomolar보다 중합 수축량이 컸다 (p < 0.05). Peak time은 Heliomolar와 Pyramid 레진 모두에서 간헐적 광중합시 더 늦게 나타났다. $R_{max}$는 Heliomolar는 4군 < 3군, 2군 < 1군 순이었고, Pyramid는 3군 < 4군 < 2군, 1군 순으로 측정되었다. 2) Heliomolar는 4군 < 3군 < 2, 1군 그리고 Pyramid는 4, 3군 < 2, 1군 순으로 교두 변위가 컸으며 (p < 0.05), Pyramid가 Heliomolar보다 교두 변위가 크게 나타났다 (p < 0.05). 이번 실험을 통해 복합 레진을 광조사 차단장치를 이용하여 간헐적 광중합시켜 중합수축 속도를 늦춤으로써 교두 변위 양이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다.

This study deals with finish roll forming by forced displacement can be conceived as a method of eliminating errors in conventional form rolling under constant loads. This method produces a high-precision tooth profile by low-speed form rolling when a high rigid screw or cam is used at the pressurized section. Tooth profile is decided in the beginning of roll forming and ${\delta}_{max}$ mainly increases if the number of roll forming process is increased. Gear class is improved by one or two class after roll forming if the gear has convex type error and pressure angle error in KS 4 class. If the gear have concave type error and pressure angle error and pressure angle error, gear class is not improved in theory, but improved a little in practice. In the finishing roll forming, it inevitably yields both the concaving of tooth profile and plastic deflection of addendum of teeth. Experiments show that the concaving and the plastic deflection are successfully reduced, the accuracy of tooth profile reaches to KS 0 class.

A lot of the research paper was reported about the result of influence of IMC (Intra-mobile connector) in the IMZ implant placed solely in the alveolar bone, but reports about the effect of IMC on functional load at state of connecting with natural teeth ere rare. The major propose of this study was find the mechanical character of IMC itself by using the finite element analysis program after simulated variance of condition connected with the natural teeth and implant on funcional load. When first and second premolar was lost, IMZ implant was placed with a diameter of 3.3mm and a length of 13mm with IMC in second premolar area. Rigid connection was done and the non-figid connention was located on the female part of the canine abutment and the implant respectively and then both the infraocclusion of $30{\mu}m$ and the non-infraocclusion under the load of 40kg applied to the portion of the natural teeth, the pontic and the implant. The displacement and the stress of it was estimated and analyzed IMC itself of the rigid connection and the non-rigid connection was grouped. The following result were obtained. 1. In all groups, the displacement of Y-axis was greater than that of X-axis and the aspect of displacement showed that IMC was displaced downward and to the center. 2. There was no differences in the displacement of IMC regardless of the connection type. 3. In the displacement of IMC, I 4 was the least, I 1 and I 3 are similar and I 2 was the greatest. 4. There was no differences in the peak value of maximal stress of IMC regardless of the connection type. 5. In the peak value of maximal stress of IMC, I 4 was the least, I 1 and I 3 were similar, and I 2 was the largest.

The purpose of this study was to qunatatively analyze the stress patterns induced in the abutment, superstructure, supporting bone and to determine the deflection of abutment and superstructure by appling occlusal force to natural teeth supported fixed prostheses and implant-supported fixed prostheses. The analysis has been conducted by using the two dimensional finite element method. The implant and natural tooth-supported bridge has a first molar pontic supported by mandibular second bicuspid and implant posterior retainer, which were rigidly(Model A) or flexible(Model B). The natural teeth-supported bridge has a first molar pontic supported by mandibular second bicuspid and second molar, which were rigidly splinted together(Model C). 63.5kg(Load P1) of localized load on central fossa of first molar pontic and 24kg(Load P2) of distributed load on each occlusal surface were applied respectively. 1. The coronal portion of premolar pontic and posterior abutment in fixed partial denture deflected inferiorly in order of Model B, Model C and Model A under Load P1 and Load P2. 2. Mesial displacement of the coronal portion of premolar showed in Model A, Model B and Model C under Load P1, but mesial displacement of that in Model B and distal displacement of that in Model A and Model C showed under Load P2. 3. Mesial displacement of the coronal portion of the pontic and distal displacement of the coronal portion of posterior abutment showed in Model A, Model B and Model C under Load P1 and Load P2. Displacement in the case of Model B was greater than that of Model A and Model C. 4. In the case Model A under Load P1 and Load P2, high stress apically was concentrated in the mesiocervical portion of the posterior abutment than in the disto-cervical portion of the premolar. 5. In the case of Model B under Load P1 and Load P2 high stress was concentrated in the case of the premolar than in that of posterior abutment and high stress especially was concentrated in the connected portion of pontic and posterior abutment. 6. In the case of Model C under Load P1 and Load P2, high stress was concentrated in the distal area of the cornal portion of premolar and the mesial area of the coronal portion of posterior abutment, and stress pattern was anteroposterially symmetric around the pontic. 7. Load P1 and Load P2 compared, stress magnitude was different but stress pattern was similar in Model A, Model B and Model C. 8. Under Load P1 and P2, stress magnitude in the mesial distal portion and the portion of root apex of the posterior abutment was in order of Model B, Model A and Model C.

기어소음의 근본적인 원인은 전달오차로 인해 발생하게 된다. 전달오차는 기어가 맞물릴 때 발생하는데 크게 정적전달오차와 동적전달오차가 있다. 이러한 오차들은 기어 이빨의 처짐 또는 치면 마찰에 의해 발생하고 이 요인들이 원인이 되어 기어 시스템에 진동이 발생하게 된다. 그리고 이 진동이 기어의 축으로 이동하게 되어 축을 떠받치고 있는 베어링에 전달되고 베어링에 전달된 가진은 최종적으로 기어의 케이싱으로 이동하게 되어 소음을 방출하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 전달오차에 의해 발생하는 최대 굽힘응력을 가지는 롤각을 찾기 위한 응력해석을 수행되었다. 본 논문에서는 이론적 바탕으로 설계되어 인볼류트 곡선을 가진 기어와 수정된 치형을 가진 기어의 전달오차에 대한 해석을 진행하였다. 또한, 급작스러운 작동이나 큰 백래쉬로 인해 발생하는 충격강도에 대한 영향을 알아보기 위해 유한요소해석을 통해 각각 정적 최대굽힘응력과 동적 최대굽힘응력의 결과를 이용하여 충격인자 값을 예측해 보았다.
