Modeling and analysis of dynamic systems generally demand their resutls to be interpreted each other with a physical sense. It sometimes requires that there should exist a unified tool in the treatment of dynamic systems which can be applied to both their modeling and analysis equally. This paper shows how models just after the progress of modeling via bond graph standards are converted to ones which are appropriate for analyzing a dynamic system in the frequency domain. Four bond graph prototypes are introduced to obtain frequency properties of dynamic systems such as zero stability, relative order, zero and pole dynamics, etc. directly from bond graphs, and the method are proposed which reduces nearly all models of bond graph standards to one of the prototypes without any change of physical similarity. This procedure as a tool for the structural reduction of bond graphs and finding frequency properties of a dynamic system is further investigated to survey its effectiveness through an example.

An experimental study has been carried out to reveal the shear-bond failure mechanism of composite deck slabs. Thirteen full scale simply supported composite slabs are studied experimentally, with the influence parameters like span length, slab depth, shear span length and end anchorage provided by steel headed studs. A dozen of strain gauges and LVDTs are monitored to capture the strain distribution and variation of the composite slabs. Before the onset of shear-bond slip, the longitudinal shear forces along the span are deduced and found to be proportional to the vertical shear force in terms of the shear-bond strength in the m-k method. The test results are appraised using the current design procedures. Based on the partial shear-bond connection at the ultimate state, an improved method is proposed by introducing two reduction factors to assess the moment resistance of a composite deck slab. The new method has been validated and the results predicted by the revised method agree well with the test results.

The purpose of this study was to achieve the reduction of the galvanic current between the dental amalgam alloy and gold alloy. In order to measure the galvanic current between these two metals a prep in the size of $4{\times}13mm$ which was filled with amalgam and another prep of $4{\times}2mm$ was filled with gold alloy was made in the acrylic resin. These two preps were then connected to a 2mm diameter copper wire. Using an ammeter to measure the galvanic current, six different kinds of amalgam and gold alloy were immersed in saline solution with approximately 10mm distance between the two alloys. Chemical agents that are thought to reduce the galvanic current such as hydrazine. silver nitrate, potassium chromate, and bonding agents such as Scotch bond 2(3M) and All bond 2(Bisco) were applied to the alloy surface. Cathodic inhibitor such as hydrazine was applied to gold alloy where as anodic inhibitor such as silver nitrate and potassium chromate were applied to amalgam. Both bonding agents, Scotch bond 2(3M) and All bond 2 (Bisco), were applied to amalgam. The following results were obtained when the currency on the coated alloy surface was compared to the uncoated surface. 1. The galvanic currency went down as the time elapsed and after 30 minutes no change was detected. 2. Initial currency was higher in low copper amalgam compared to high copper amalgam. Intitial currency was the highest in low copper lathe-cut amalgam. 3. Group of gold coated with hydrazine had the most reduction in galvanic currency. 4. Group of amalgam coated with silver nitrate or potassium chromate also showed significant reduction in galvanic currency. 5. The bonding agents also helped reduce galvanic currency. 6. Of all the agents used to reduce galvanic currency, silver nitrate showed the best result.

This paper suggests a modified bond reduction coefficient considering the average CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) strain concept for the unbonded prestressed CFRP plate strengthening system. The strengthened length and the pure bending length were seen to influence the variation of the strain of unbonded CFRP plate. Therefore, a new bond reduction coefficient considering such effect was suggested. Comparison with the experimental data revealed that the analytic results obtained by considering the proposed bond reduction coefficient were effective in estimating the strain of the unbonded CFRP plate in the CFRP plate prestressing system.

Tooth bleaching has been prevailing recently for its ability to recover the color and shape of natural teeth without reduction of tooth material. However, it has been reported that bleaching procedure adversely affects the adhesive bond strength of composite resin to tooth. At the same time the bond strength was reported to be regained by application of some chemical agents. The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of the removal of residual peroxide on the composite- enamel adhesion and also evaluated fracture mode between resin and enamel after bleaching. Sixty extracted human anterior and premolars teeth were divided into 5 groups and bleached by combined technique using of office bleaching with 35 % hydrogen peroxide and matrix bleaching with 10% carbamide peroxide for 4 weeks. After bleaching, the labial surfaces of each tooth were treated with catalase, 70% ethyl alcohol, distilled water and filled with composite resin. Shear bond strength was tested and the fractured surfaces were also examined with SEM. Analysis revealed significantly higher bond strength values. (p＜0.05) for catalase-treated specimens, but water-treated specimens showed reduction of bond strength, alcohol- treated specimens had medium value between the two groups(p＜0.05). The fracture mode was shown that the catalase group and the alcohol group had cohesive failure but the water sprayed group had adhesive failure. It was concluded that the peroxide residues in tooth after bleaching seems to be removed by gradual diffusion and the free radical oxygen from peroxide prevents polymerization by combining catalyst in the resin monomer. Therefore it may be possible to eliminate the adverse effect on the adhesion of composite resin to enamel after bleaching by using water displacement solution or dentin bonding agent including it for effective removal of residual peroxide.

The effects of pretreatment of Co-Cr alloy, including two adhesive primers that contain either MDP or MAC-10, and silicoating on the bond The result sobtained as follows; o Strength of 4-META/MMA-TBB resin were investigated using FT-IR, SEM, and EDAX. o In the SEM observation of surface morphologies, the sandblasted specimen exibited a very rough surface, whereas the surfaces of the two groups primed with either MDP or MAC-10 were covered with a layer of primer, and the surface morphology of the silicoated specimen remained almost the same after sandblasting. o Before the thermocycling tests, the group treated with MDP demonstrated the highest mean tensile bond strength and the sandblasted group showed the lowest bond strength. o After 20,000 thermocyling, the mean tensile bond strength of the sandblasted group exhibited a 50% reduction in bond strength, while the others showed a $20\sim30%$ reduction. o Observation of the metal-resin interface revealed that in all groups the resin permeated the rough surface formed by sandblasting thereby producing a mechanical bond between the metal and the resin. It was also found that thermocycling resulted in a gap formation at the metal-resin interface of the specimens, and the sandblasted group exhibited a larger gap width than the other groups. o In fracture mode, all specimens indicated a cohesive fracture within the resin before thermocycling. However, thermocyling produced adhesive failure at the edge of the resin-metal interface in most specimens. The sandblasted group, which exhibited the lowest bond strength after thormocycling, also demonstrated the largest area of adhesive failure.

Numerous factors are known to affect the accuracy of elastomeric impression materials. Factor often overlooked is the quality of the bond between putty and wash during corrective reline impression technique. The putty-wash bond strength must be strong enough to over-come the local stress at putty-wash interface. It is not always possible to avoid saliva contamination in making corrective wash impres-sion. And putty preliminary impression material con be used as a template for provisional restoration. Human saliva and the residual monomer of autopolymerizing acrylic resin are thought to affect the bond strength and the failure type. This study examined the effect of contaminants like human saliva, and residual resin monomer on the putty-wash bond strength and the effectiveness of treatment. 1. Of the tested three brands of Vinyl Polysiloxane impession meterial, Express Exhibited the greatest bond strength followed by Eamix and Perfect showed the lowest putty-wah bond strength. 2. Coating the putty substrates with human saliva did not produce decreased failure load in all the breands of Vinyl Polysiloxane impression meterail. 3. Of the three brands of VPS impression material that were exposed to methhylmethacry-late resin(Jet), only the putty-wash bond strength of the Perfect group diminished signifi-cantly. Moreover, all the specimens from group C of Perfect exhibited adhesive failure. 4. Exposing the substrates to ethylmethacrylate resin(SNAP. diminished the putty-wash bond strength significantly. With Perfect and Examix, failure occurred cohesively through the light-body, whereas with Express, failure occurred adhesive-cohesively. 5. Removing approximately 1mm thickness of the contaminated putty interface was the most effective treatment in countering the undesirable effect caused by residual resin monomer. The putty-wash bond strength of the groups that were treated with 1mm even putty reduction was not significantly different from those of control groups. With Perfect and Examix, cleaning the specimens with gauze soaked in 70% isopropyl alcohol increased the putty-wash bond strength, but was not as effective as 1mm even reduction of contaminated putty substrates. With Express, 70% isoproryl alcohol treatment exhibi0ted comparable putty-wash bond strength to that of control group.

Objective: Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) decreases the bond strength of resin composite. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of antioxidant and superficial dentin surface removal on the microtensile bond strength of NaOCl-treated dentin. Materials and Methods: Twenty non-carious human third molars were used in this study. The dentin surfaces were treated with 5.25% NaOCl for 10 min, followed either by treatment with 10% ascorbic acid or superficial dentin surface removal. Two-step self-etch adhesive and resin composite were used for restoration. The bonded specimens were subjected to the microtensile bond strength test. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's test (p < 0.05). Results: The bond strength after removal of the superficial dentin surface following NaOCl irrigation was similar to that in the control group. The group treated with 10% ascorbic acid demonstrated significantly higher bond strength than the other groups. Conclusion: NaOCl irrigation-induced reduction in dentin bond strength could be recovered by either treatment with 10% ascorbic acid or simple removal of the superficial dentin surface.

A comparison study on asymmetric borane reduction of ketoxime ethers and N-substituted ketimines possesing C = N double bond mediated by the selected chiral oxazaborolidines (1-6) was investigated. Thus, an aromatic ketoxime O-alkyl ether acetophenone oxime O-methyl ether was reduced to the corresponding amine (1-phenylethylamine 8a) with optical yields, such as 58% ee with 1, 86% ee with 2, 3% ee with 3, 99% ee with 4, 60% ee with 5, and 73% ee with 6. However, the reduction of an aliphatic ketoxime derivative 2-heptanone oxime O-methyl ether provided low optical inductions (7-13% ee). For ketoxime O-trimethylsilyl ethers, the reduction of acetophenone O-trimethylsilyl ether afforded 8a with optical yields which were 90% ee with 1, 40% ee with 2, 2% ee with 3, 62% ee with 4, 5% ee with 5, and 60% ee with 6. The reduction of 2-heptanone O-trimethylsilyl ether also gave the product amine with low optical yields (10-40% ee). In the case of N-substituted ketimines, the reduction of acetophenone N-phenylimine afforded the corresponding amine with 79% ee, 78% ee, 9% ee, 73% ee, 78% ee and 67% ee using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, respectively, whereas low optical inductions (5-18% ee) for 2-heptanone N-phenylimine were achieved.
