The H-shaped steel beam is popular due to its ease of manufacturing and connection to the column. This profile, which is used as a shallow beam, needs the high weak-axis bending stiffness and torsional stiffness to meet the overall stability. Achieving the local beam flange stability, bearing capacity, bending stiffness, and torsional requirements need a great thickness and width of the beam flange, which causes, which will cause more uneconomical structural design. So, the box-section beam is the ideal alternative. However, the current design specifications do not have design rules for the bolt-and-welded connection of the box-section beam and box-section column. The paper proposes a novel bolt-and-welded connection of the box-section beams and box-section columns based on a high-rise structural design scheme. Three connection models, BASE, WBF, and RBS, are analyzed under cyclic loading in ABAQUS software. The failure modes, hysteresis response, bearing capacity, ductility, plastic rotation angle, energy dissipation, and stiffness degradation of all models are determined and compared. Compared with the other two models, the model WBF exhibited excellent seismic performance, ductility, and plastic rotation ability. Finally, model WBF was chosen as the connection scheme used in the project design.

The purpose of this study is to find the new method for estiming the spatial variations in a light source with utilizing the optical fiber sensory system. With this aim, firstly the asymmetry in the beam profile of a light source is evaluated by using the tipped optical fiber with 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 45-degree angle. Secondly the variation of position in a light source is estimated by adjusting the relative position between the light source unit (XYZ stage, LED, Optical fiber) and the receiver unit (Photodiode, XYZ stage). Our experimental results show that the spatial variation of a light source can be resolved in terms of the variations in beam profile with varying the tip angle of an optical fiber and adjusting the relative distance between the light source unit and the receiver.

For patients with bimaxillary protrusion, significant retraction and intrusion of the anterior teeth are sometimes essential to improve the facial profile. However, severe root resorption of the maxillary incisors occasionally occurs after treatment because of various factors. For instance, it has been reported that approximation or invasion of the incisive canal by the anterior tooth roots during retraction may cause apical root damage. Thus, determination of the position of the maxillary incisors is key for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning in such cases. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) may be useful for simulating the post-treatment position of the maxillary incisors and surrounding structures in order to ensure safe teeth movement. Here, we present a case of Class II malocclusion with bimaxillary protrusion, wherein apical root damage due to treatment was minimized by pretreatment evaluation of the anatomical structures and simulation of the maxillary central incisor movement using CBCT. Considerable retraction and intrusion of the maxillary incisors, which resulted in a significant improvement in the facial profile and smile, were achieved without severe root resorption. Our findings suggest that CBCT-based diagnosis and treatment simulation may facilitate safe and dynamic orthodontic tooth movement, particularly in patients requiring maximum anterior tooth retraction.

The response function of ionization chambers are measured in the narrow radiation field Nominal photon energies are 4MV, 6MV and 15MV. the Radii of the chambers are 0.5cm～3.05cm and the field size is 0.2$\times$20$\textrm{cm}^2$. The measurements are taken in the water phantom at 10cm depth. The beam kernel (radiation distribution profile) for narrow radiation field in the phantom are obtained from Monte Carlo simulation (EGS4, Electron Gamma Shower 4). The beam kernel components in the measured chamber response function are deconvolved in order to get the ideal chamber response function of the $\delta$-shaped function radiation field. The chamber response functions have energy dependent tendency before deconvolution, while they show energy invariant properties, after the components of beam kernels are removed by deconvolution method.

Dynamic wedge system has been introduced to modify the beam profile and to make homogeneous isodose curves in the mass of irregular shape. Before the clinical use of dynamic wedge, several factors such as wedge transmission factor, dose profile, percent depth dose, and wedge angle have to be measured quantitatively. Film dosimetry is used to evaluate these factors in this study. A comparison of the result of the dynamic wedge to physical wedge system is made. A positive result for the application of the dynamic wedge to clinic is derived even though there is a limitation in accuracy of the dosimetry system used. To measure all factors quantitatively, more accurate dosimetry systems are required.

Purpose: Elekta synergy^® was commissioned in the Seoul National University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. Recently, Chung-Ang University Gwang Myeong Hospital commissioned Elekta Versa HD^TM. The beam characteristics of both machines are similar because of the same Agility^TM MLC Model. We compared measured beam data calculated using the Elekta treatment planning system, Monaco^®, for each institute. Methods: Beam of the commissioning Elekta linear accelerator were measured in two independent institutes. After installing the beam model based on the measured beam data into the Monaco^®, Monte Carlo (MC) simulation data were generated, mimicking the beam data in a virtual water phantom. Measured beam data were compared with the calculated data, and their similarity was quantitatively evaluated by the gamma analysis. Results: We compared the percent depth dose (PDD) and off-axis profiles of 6 MV photon and 6 MeV electron beams with MC calculation. With a 3%/3 mm gamma criterion, the photon PDD and profiles showed 100% gamma passing rates except for one inplane profile at 10 cm depth from VMTH. Gamma analysis of the measured photon beam off-axis profiles between the two institutes showed 100% agreement. The electron beams also indicated 100% agreement in PDD distributions. However, the gamma passing rates of the off-axis profiles were 91%-100% with a 3%/3 mm gamma criterion. Conclusions: The beam and their comparison with MC calculation for each institute showed good performance. Although the measuring tools were orthogonal, no significant difference was found.

Acoustic nonlinearity of surface waves is an effective method to evaluate the micro damage on the surface of materials. In this method, the $A_1$ (magnitude of the fundamental wave) and $A_2$ (magnitude of the second-order harmonic wave) are measured for evaluation of acoustic nonlinearity. However, if there is another source of second-order harmonic wave other than the material itself, the linear relationship between $A_1{^2}$ and $A_2$ will not be guaranteed. Therefore, the second-order harmonic generation by another source should be fully suppressed. In this paper, we investigated the initial second-order harmonic generation in narrowband surface waves by multi-line laser beams. The spatial profile of laser beam was considered in the cases of Gaussian and square-like. The temporal profile was assumed to be Gaussian. In case of Gaussian spatial profile, the generation of the initial second-order harmonic wave was inevitable. However, when the spatial profile was square-like, the generation of the initial second-order harmonic wave was able to be fully suppressed at specific duty ratio. These results mean that the multi-line laser beams of square-like profile with a proper duty ratio are useful to evaluate the acoustic nonlinearity of the generated surface waves.

We developed a new ellipsometer for MURA detection. This ellipsometer can measure MURA along the slit line on the sample with high sensitivity, because this ellipsometer irradiates a slit beam onto the sample but can reject the reflected light from the back surface of the substrate. This ellipsometer is suitable for measuring MURA of the surface of sample with high sensitivity.
