PURPOSE. To determine the shear bond strengths of different denture base resins to different types of prefabricated teeth (acrylic, nanohybrid composite, and cross-linked) and denture teeth produced by computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Prefabricated teeth and CAD/CAM (milled) denture teeth were divided into 10 groups and bonded to different denture base materials. Groups 1-3 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and cold-polymerized denture base resin; groups 4-6 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and heat-polymerized denture base resin; groups 7-9 comprised of different types of prefabricated teeth and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resin; and group 10 comprised of milled denture teeth produced by CAD/CAM technology and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resin. A universal testing machine was used to evaluate the shear bond strength for all specimens. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc test were used for analyzing the data (α=.05). RESULTS. The shear bond strengths of different groups ranged from 3.37 ± 2.14 MPa to 18.10 ± 2.68 MPa. Statistical analysis showed significant differences among the tested groups (P<.0001). Among different polymerization methods, the lowest values were determined in cold-polymerized resin.There was no significant difference between the shear bond strength values of heat-polymerized and CAD/CAM (milled) denture base resins. CONCLUSION. Different combinations of materials for removable denture base and denture teeth can affect their bond strength. Cold-polymerized resin should be avoided for attaching prefabricated teeth to a denture base. CAD/CAM (milled) and heat-polymerized denture base resins bonded to different types of prefabricated teeth show similar shear bond strength values.

The direct synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with acidic and basic active sites is challenging due to the introduction of functional groups by post-functionalization method often jeopardize the framework integrity. Herein, we report the direct synthesis of acid-base bifunctional MOFs with tuning acid-base strength. Employing modulated hydrothermal (MHT) approach, microporous MOFs named $UiO-66-NH_2$ was prepared. Through the ring-opening reaction of 1,3-propanesultone with amino group, $UiO-66-NH_2-SO_3H-type$ catalysts can be obtained. The synthesized catalysts were well characterized and their catalytic performances were evaluated in one-pot glucose to 5-HMF conversion. Results revealed the acid-base bi-functional catalyst possessed high activity and excellent stability. This work provides a general and economically viable approach for the large-scale synthesis of acid-base bi-functional MOFs for their potential use in catalysis field.

본 연구는 초등수학에서 '밑'의 용어집합인 '밑변'과 '밑면'에 대한 고찰에서부터 입체도형의 '밑넓이' 개념과 그것을 구하는 과정에 대한 물음에서부터 출발한다. 곧, 연구는 초등학교 6학년 수학에서 직육면체의 밑넓이를 구하라는 문제에서 출발한다. 이에 대한 일차적인 답은 초등수학에서는 밑넓이라는 용어를 사용하지 않는다는 데서 찾을 수 있다. 그러나 중학교 1학년 수학에서 밑넓이를 '한 밑면의 넓이'로 사용하고 있는데, 문제는 초등수학에서 중학교 수학으로의 이행에서 이에 대한 설명이 없다는데 있다. 또한 초등수학에서 밑면을 정의하고, 겉넓이와 옆넓이를 다루는데, 이로부터 자연스럽게 밑넓이를 구하는 문제를 생각해볼 수 있다는데 있다. 이에 본 연구는 '밑'의 용어집합에서 그 원소인 '밑변'과 '밑면'을 검토해보고, 다음으로 밑넓이에 대한 논의를 교육과정, 교과서를 비롯하여 사전적 정의와 함께 살펴보았다. 또한 입체도형 관련 설문 문항을 작성하여 예비교사와 현장교사를 대상으로 설문을 실시하여 밑면과 밑넓이에 대한 이해 정도를 비교 분석하였다. 특히 처음과 마지막 문항에 밑넓이를 구하는 문제를 제시하여, 이 사이에서 어떤 변화가 나타나는지를 비교하였다. 그 결과 초등수학과 중학교 수학 사이의 '인지적 간극'(cognitive gap)을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 입체도형에서 밑넓이 지도를 위한 제언과 함께 이후 도형에서의 용어 지도를 위한 후속 과제를 제안하고 있다.

목적: 굴절교정 안경 착용 시 안경 착용자가 교정시력에는 만족할지라도 어지럼증상과 같은 위화감으로 안경착용에 불편함을 호소한다. 이는 안경 교정 굴절력에 의한 프리즘영향으로 인해 발생될 수 있으므로 본 연구는 평소 어지럼을 느끼지 않는 피검자를 대상으로 수직동향프리즘에 대한 자각증상을 조사하였다. 방법: 시각적으로 정상인 나이 20세에서 31세인 37명의 학생으로 실시하였다. 소프트콘택트렌즈로 굴절이상을 교정한 상태에서 수직동향프리즘, Base Down과 Base Up의 단프리즘렌즈로 조제가공 된 가공안경을 각각 착용한 상태로 걸어 보게 하여 자각적인 위화감에 대한 느낌의 정도를 나타내게 하였다. 결과: 프리즘에 대한 자각적 위화감에 대한 반응 정도는 Base Up 동향프리즘이 Base Down 동향프리즘 보다 유의적 수준에서 크게 나타났다. 또한 수직 Base Up에 의해 위화감을 느끼는 대상자의 빈도는 외사위 보다 내사위가 더 높게 나타나서 외사위 대상자 보다 내사위의 대상자가 보다 Base Up에 민감한 반응을 보였다. 결론: 안경에 의한 어지럼과 같은 위화감을 감소시키기 위해서는 프리즘의 효과를 최소화해야 하며 프리즘이 부득이 부가될 경우는 Base Up 보다는 Base Down의 동향프리즘을 유도하는 것이 효과적이라고 할 수 있다.

A new experimental system of base-isolated structures is proposed. There are two kinds of dampers usually used in the base-isolated buildings, one is a viscous-type damper and the other is an elastic-plastic hysteretic-type damper. The base-isolated structure with a viscous damper and that with an elastic-plastic hysteretic damper are compared in this paper. The viscous damper is modeled by a mini piston and the elastic-plastic hysteretic damper is modeled by a low yield-point steel. The capacity of both dampers is determined so that the dissipated energies are equivalent at a specified deformation. When the capacity of both dampers is determined according to this criterion, it is shown that the response of the base-isolated structure with the elastic-plastic hysteretic damper is larger than that with the viscous damper. This characteristic is demonstrated through the comparison of the bound of the aspect ratio. It is shown that the bound of aspect ratio for the base-isolated structure with the elastic-plastic hysteretic damper is generally smaller than that with the viscous damper. When the base-isolated structure is subjected to long-duration input, the mechanical property of the elastic-plastic hysteretic damper deteriorates and the response of the base-isolated structure including that damper becomes larger than that with the viscous damper. The effect of this change of material properties on the response of the base-isolated structure is also investigated.

In this study, we investigate the use of a negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system to improve the performance of a base-isolated structure. The negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system consists of a tuned inerter damper connected in parallel with a negative stiffness element. To find the optimal parameters for the base-isolated structure with negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system, we develop an optimization method based on performance criteria. The objective of the optimization is to minimize the superstructure acceleration response ratio, while ensuring that the base displacement response ratio remains below a specified target value. We evaluate the proposed method by conducting numerical analyses on an eight-story building. The structure is modeled using both a simplified 3-degree-of-freedom system and a more detailed story-by-story shear-beam model. Lastly, a comparative analysis using time history analysis is performed to compare the performance of the base-isolated structure with negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system with that of the base-isolated structure and base-isolated structure with tuned inerter damper systems. The results obtained from the comparative analysis show that the negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system outperforms the tuned inerter damper system in reducing the dynamic seismic response of the base-isolated structure. Overall, this study demonstrates that the negative stiffness tuned inerter damper system can effectively enhance the performance of base-isolated structures, providing improved seismic response reduction compared to other systems.

Exposed column base connections are used in low- to mid-rise steel moment resisting frames. This paper is to investigate the effect of the base plate thickness on the exposed column base connection strength, stiffness, and energy dissipation. Five specimens with different base plate thickness were numerically modelled using ABAQUS software. The numerical model is able to reproduce the key characteristics of the experimental response. Based on the numerical analysis, the critical base plate thickness to identify the base plate and anchor rod yield mechanism is proposed. For the connection with base plate yield mechanism, the resisting moment is carried by the flexural bending of the base plate. Yield lines in the base plate on the tension side and compression side are illustrated, respectively. This type of connection exhibits a relatively large energy dissipation. For the connection with anchor rod yield mechanism, the moment is resisted through a combination of bearing stresses of concrete foundation on the compression side and tensile forces in the anchor rods on the tension side. This type of connection exhibits self-centering behavior and shows higher initial stiffness and bending strength. In addition, the methods to predict the moment resistance of the connection with different yield mechanisms are presented. And the evaluated moment resistances agree well with the values obtained from the FEM model.

This study has intended to build ecological networks in consideration of life-zones inside Cheongju city through biotope grade, GIS network analysis etc. This study consisted of following three steps. First, we selected core districts and core spot districts using land use patten and biotope grade. The core district included the first grade of biotope and forest land. The core district consisted of two sectors : east axis core, Uam mountain; west axis core, Bumo mountain. The core spot district included the first grade of biotope. The core spot districts consisted of two sectors : north axis base core, Myongshim park; south axis base core, Guryong park. Second, the base district included the second grade of biotope and park and school. We used buffering analysis within 500m of the base district and selected the new base district. Third, we connected core districts and base core districts using least cost analysis of GIS. Thus we built comprehensive ecological networks in consideration of life-zones through GIS.

How to determine the right number of small base stations to activate in multi-cell uplinks to match traffic from a fixed quantity of K users is an open question. This paper analyses the uplink cooperative that jointly receives base stations activation to explore this question. This paper is different from existing works only consider transmitting power as optimization objective function. The global objective function is formulated as a summation of two terms: transmitting power for data and coordinated overhead for control. Then, the joint base stations activation and beamforming problem is formulated as a mixed integer second order cone optimization. To solve this problem, we develop two polynomial-time distributed methods. Method one is a two-stage solution which activates no more than K small base stations (SBSs). Method two is a heuristic algorithm by dual decomposition to MI-SOCP that activates more SBSs to obtain multiple-antennae diversity gains. Thanks to the parallel computation for each node, our methods are more computationally efficient. The strengths and weaknesses of these two proposed two algorithms are also compared using numerical results.
