Background: Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) is a treatment modality that alleviates radicular pain by intermittently applying high-frequency currents adjacent to the dorsal root ganglion. There has been no comparative study on analgesic effect according to the position of the needle tip in PRF treatment. The objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of PRF according to the needle tip position. Methods: Patients were classified into 2 groups (group IP [group inside of pedicle] and group OP [group outside of pedicle]) based on needle tip position in the anteroposterior view of fluoroscopy. In the anteroposterior view, the needle tip was advanced medially further than the lateral aspect of the corresponding pedicle in group IP; however, in group OP, the needle tip was not advanced. The treatment outcomes and pain scores were evaluated at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after applying PRF. Results: At 4, 8, and 12 weeks, there were no significant differences between the successful response rate and numerical rating scale score ratio. Conclusions: The analgesic efficacy of PRF treatment did not differ with the needle tip position.

The shoot tip and young leaf of Rhodiola sachalinensis were cultured to invest the plant growth regulator condition for callus induction, shoot and root regeneration. When the shoot tip was sterilized in 2.0% of NaOCl for 20min., the contamination rate was the lowest. And the survival rate of the culture material was good in carbenicillin 500mg/L treatment group. Callus was obtained from shoot tip and young leaf segments. NAA 0.1-1.0mg/L and 2,4-D 0.1-0.5mg/L alone treatment were shown to have a good response on callus induction from shoot tip culture. In the case of young leaf culture, NAA and 2,4-D 0.1-0.5mg/L alone treatment were good in callus induction. In culturing shoot tip NAA 0.5mg/L and BA 0.5mg/L, NAA1.0mg/L and BA 0.lmg/L combination treatment was good in shoot regeneration. The regenerated shoots were rooted on MS medium supplemented with NAA and BA combination treatment. Especially, NAA 1.0mg/L and BA 0.1mg/L combination treatment was effective for root regeneration.

The constraint effect $A_2$ has to be evaluated within plastic region near crack tip front using opening displacement. Plastic boundary and stress or strain conditions in the vicinity of the crack tip using recrystallization heat treatment was represented. It was found that the plastic deformation boundary by recrystallization heat treatment method was the true strain of ${\epsilon}t$ = 0.05mm/mm. With the estimation of constraint effects $A_2$, the region of proper displacement measurement point near crack tip was between 0mm and 1mm distance toward direction of crack propagation, and was between 1mm to 3mm distance toward direction of load line.

본 연구는 고주파 열치료 시 내부냉각방식 cool-tip의 냉각수 온도에 따른 소작 특성을 확인하기 위하여 소간을 이용하여 냉각수 온도변화에 따른 소간의 소작 특성의 변화를 통해 냉각수 온도변화와 소작 특성의 상관관계를 확인하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용된 소간은 2 cm cool-tip 사용 시 $4{\times}4{\times}4cm^3$, 3 cm인 cool-tip 사용 시에는 $6{\times}6{\times}6cm^3$로 소간을 절제하였으며, 소작된 소간은 MRI를 이용하여 영상검사를 실시하였으며, Freehand 기법으로 소작된 부위의 면적과 둘레를 측정하였다. 2 cm, 3 cm cool-tip을 사용하여 6분, 12분 소작 시 cool-tip 온도가 상승함에 따라 면적과 둘레는 감소함을 나타냈으며, cool-tip 온도와 면적 및 둘레의 상관관계는 통계학적으로 유의한 결과를 나타내었다(p=.000). 소작 범위에 대한 실제 측정과 MRI을 이용한 측정을 비교한 결과 MRI를 이용한 면적과 둘레 측정이 더 정확한 것을 확인하였으며, 대응표본 T-검정을 이용한 통계적 결과 또한 유의하였다(p=.038). 고주파 열치료 장비의 cool-tip 냉각수 온도가 증가함에 따라 소간의 소작 범위가 감소한 원인은 고주파 열치료 장비의 에너지가 정확히 전달되지 못하고 탄화가 발생하기 때문이다. 따라서 고주파 열치료에서 탄화의 발생을 줄이고, 고주파 에너지가 정확히 전달되어 치료 효과를 높이기 위해서는 냉각수의 온도를 낮은 온도로 일정하게 유지하여 사용하여야 고주파 열치료의 효과가 증대될 것이라 사료된다.

Contact tip is located so near to welding arc that it is heated to high temperature during long time welding. In such a situation, tip changes in its microstructure and in turn its mechanical properties. This study was intended to investigate those changes by using simulated heat treatment. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that tip of Cu-P alloy hardened with severe cold deformation lose its initial hardness to a large extent within 60 min due to the occurrence of rapid recrystallization while that of Cu-Cr composition hardened by proper aging treatment can preserve its intial hardness for about 1,000 min or longer. Based on these results, suggested was a guideline that can classify contact tips into two different grades: deformation-hardened type and precipitation-hardened type. Following a guideline, a tip with Cu-Cr composition can be classified into the deformation-hardened type if it is in the over-aged condition. Such a guideline is well described.

For Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy measurements, the fiber tip is glued on the side of one of the tuning fork prongs vertically to its extended direction. Higher Q-factor is attainable in this geometry than in the arrangement with the fiber tip parallel to the prong. A simple mechanical design is applied to hold the fiber tip above the gluing point. The overall tuning fork-fiber tip assembly gives another advantage of the flexible Q-factor enhancement. With this treatment, Q-factor higher than 3000 is easily achievable. As an operating instance, a grating is scanned for its one dimensional topographical image.

It is known that tip clearance flows reduce the pressure rin, flow range and efficiency of the turbomachinery. So, the clear understanding about flow fields in the tip region is needed to efficiently design the turbomachinery. The Navier-Stokes code with the proper treatment of the boundary conditions has been developed to analyze the three-dimensional steady viscous flow fields in the transonic rotating blades and a numerical study has been conducted to investigate the detail flow physics in the tip region of transonic rotor, NASA Rotor 67. The computational results in the tip region of transonic rotors show the leakage vortices, leakage flow from pressure side to suction side and their interaction with a shock Depending on the operating conditions, the position of shock-wave on the blade surface are v8y different close to the blade tip of the transonic compressor rotor. The shock-wave position dose to the blade tip had the dose relationship with the starting position of leakage vortex and the direction of leakage flow.

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze three-dimensional (3D) changes in maxillary dentition in Class II malocclusion treatment using arch wire with continuous tip-back bends or compensating curve, together with intermaxillary elastics by superimposing 3D virtual models. Methods: The subjects were 20 patients (2 men and 18 women; mean age 20 years 7 months ${\pm}$ 3 years 9 months) with Class II malocclusion treated using $0.016{\times}0.022-inch$ multiloop edgewise arch wire with continuous tip-back bends or titanium molybdenum alloy ideal arch wire with compensating curve, together with intermaxillary elastics. Linear and angular measurements were performed to investigate maxillary teeth displacement by superimposing pre- and post-treatment 3D virtual models using Rapidform 2006 and analyzing the results using paired t-tests. Results: There were posterior displacement of maxillary teeth (p < 0.01) with distal crown tipping of canine, second premolar and first molar (p < 0.05), expansion of maxillary arch (p < 0.05) with buccoversion of second premolar and first molar (p < 0.01), and distal-in rotation of first molar (p < 0.01). Reduced angular difference between anterior and posterior occlusal planes (p < 0.001), with extrusion of anterior teeth (p < 0.05) and intrusion of second premolar and first molar (p < 0.001) was observed. Conclusions: Class II treatment using an arch wire with continuous tip-back bends or a compensating curve, together with intermaxillary elastics, could retract and expand maxillary dentition, and reduce occlusal curvature. These results will help clinicians in understanding the mechanism of this Class II treatment.

원자력현미경(AFM) tip을 표면 처리하여 임프린트용 acrylate 레진과의 접착력을 측정하였다. 표면 처리를 하지 않은 실리콘 tip에 비하여 $CH_4$ 플라즈마로 소수성 처리한 경우 접착력은 38% 감소한 반면 친수성의 $O_2$ 플라즈마로 처리한 경우에는 접착력이 1.6 배 증가하였다. 이러한 AFM 결과들은 정성적 실험 결과 밖에 얻을 수 없는 cross-cut 접착실험에 비하여 매우 구체적인 정량적 결과들을 제공하였다. 나노 크기의 임프린트 패턴을 전사하는 경우, 몰드와 레진 사이 접촉 면적이 커져서 시료 전체의 접착력이 커지기 때문에 패턴 크기가 작아지는 나노임프린트 공정에서는 몰드 표면 처리 문제가 더욱 중요하게 되는 것을 알 수 있었다.
