  • We present a method to reconstruct a canal surface from a point cloud (a set of unorganized points). A canal surface is defined as a swept surface of a moving sphere with varying radii. By using the shrinking and moving least-squares methods, we reduce a point cloud to a thin curve-like point set which can be approximated to the spine curve of a canal surface. The distance between a point in the thin point cloud and a corresponding point in the original point set represents the radius of the canal surface.

  • We present an efficient and robust algorithm to parametrize a perspective silhouette curve of a canal surface. We also detect each connected component of the silhouette. A canal surface is an envelope surface of a moving sphere with varying radii, which is defined by the center trajectory C(t) and radius function r(t) of the moving sphere. A canal surface can be decomposed to a set of characteristic circles. We derive the equations for the silhouette points on each characteristic circle, then parameterize the silhouette curve by using the equation. The sphere $S(t_*)$ with center point $C(t_*)$ and radius $r(t_*)$ intersects with the canal surface at a characteristic circle $K(t_*)$. The perspective silhouette of the sphere $S(t_*)$ from given view point consists of a circle $Q(t_*)$. By finding the values of t at which K(t) and Q(t) tangentially intersect, we detect each connected component of the silhouette curve.

  • This work considers a particular type of swept surface named canal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space. For such a kind of surfaces, some interesting and important relations about the Gaussian curvature, the mean curvature and the second Gaussian curvature are found. Based on these relations, some canal surfaces are characterized.

  • This study aims to simulate the 3 dimensional (3D) model of Keum-man connection canal using geographic information system (GIS) as well as considering design in viewpoint of engineering. The canal connects from Keumkang to Mangyungkang in order to supply fresh water into Saemankeum lake. This study used 3 dimensional spatial planning model (3DSPLAM) process to generate the 3D model, which has not only several planning layers in actual process, but also their corresponding layers in modeling process to simulate 3D space of rural villages. The discharge of the canal is $20m^3/s$ on slope of 1/28,400 in the canal length of 14.2km, which consists of pipe line and open channel. This study surveyed the route of the canal and its surrounding environment for facilities to make images in the 3D graphic model. Besides, the present study developed data set in GIS for geogrphical surface modeling as well as parameters in hydraulic analysis for water surface profile on the canal using HEC-RAS model. From the data set constructed, this study performed analysis of water surface profile with HEC-RAS, generation of digital elevation model (DEM) and 3D objects, design of the canal section and route on DEM in AutoCAD, and 3D canal model and its surrounding 3D space in 3DMAX with virtual reality. The study result showed that the process making 3D canal model tried in this study is very useful to generate computer graphic model with the designed canal on the surface of DEM. The generated 3D canal can be used to assist decision support for the canal policy.

  • The canal surfaces foliated by pseudo spheres $\mathbb{S}_1^2$ along a space curve in Minkowski 3-space are studied. The geometric properties of such surfaces are shown by classifying the linear Weingarten canal surfaces, the developable, minimal and umbilical canal surfaces are discussed at the same time.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the hybrid instrumentation method with ProTaper and ProFile on the change of root canal area and distance from the canal to the root surface after canal shaping. The mesial canals of twenty extracted mandibular first molars having $10-20^{\circ}\Delta$ curvature were scanned using X-ray microcomputed tomography (XMCT)-scanner before root canals were instrumented. They were divided into four groups (n=10 canals ter group). In Group 1, root canals were instrumented by the step-back technique with stainless steel K-Flexofile after coronal flaring. The remainders were instrumented by the crown-down technique with, ProTaper system (Group 2), ProFile (Group 3) or ProTaper (Group 4). All canals were prepared up to size 25 at the end-point of preparation and scanned again. Pre- and post-operative cross-sectional images of 1, 3, 5, and 7 mm from the apical foramen were compared. For each level, change of cross-sectional canal are and distance to the nearest external root surface was calculated using Adobe Photoshop 6.0 and image software program. In the change of cross-sectional area, Group 4 was less than Group 2 at 3 mm and 5 mm level (p<0.05). In the difference of the distance from the canal to the root surface after canal shaping, Group 4 was least among the other groups at 7 mm level (p<0.05). According to the results, the methods using ProFile or K file only and the hybrid instrumentation technique using ProTaper and ProFile are more appropriate methods of canal preparation than ProTaper system for narrow of curved canals.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cleansing effect of Glyoxide on the dentinal walls of the root canal. Fourty teeth were divided into four groups and the canals in each group were individually enlarged with K-file by step-back technic and irrigated with one of four irrigants. The four used irrigants were Glyoxide (Marion lab. U.S.A.) in combination with 3.5% sodium hypochlorite, 3.5% sodium hypochlorite, 3.5% sodium hypochlorite in combination with 3% hydrogen peroxide and normal saline solution. All the irrigants were used in conjunction with instrumentation as they would be during clinical conditions. After final irrigation, the canals were dried with paper points and the teeth were split longitudinally. The cleaness of canal walls according to the size and the level of canals were evaluated under steroscope by t analysed statistically The results were as follows. 1. The use of 3.5% sodium hyphochlorite in combination with 3.0% hydrogen peroxide revealed the most clean canal surface regardless of the size of canal at apical third of root canal (p < 0.05). 2. Glyoxide in combination with 3.5% sodium hyphchlorite showed no significant difference in cleaning effect of canal surface compared with 3.5% sodium hypochlorite and normal saline solution at the apical third of narrow canal. 3. Glyoxide in combination with 3.5% sodium hypochlorite revealed no significant difference in debridement of canal walls compared with 3.5% sodium hypochlorite in combination with 3% hydrogen peroxide and saline solution at the middle third of narrow and large canals.

  • An oval-shaped mass with a smooth surface was found in the ear canal of a 22-month-old male infant. Although the mass appeared to be almost entirely blocking the ear canal, it was successfully removed under a surgical microscope without general anesthesia at the outpatient department. Under an optical microscope with hematoxylin and eosin staining, the specimen was observed to have a cuticle with a serrated surface and a pore canal, as well as parts of the capitulum, salivary glands, muscles, midgut, and the legs. The specimen was identified as a hard tick of the family Ixodidae, based on gross and histological findings. This paper is the first report in Korea on the diagnosis and treatment of a tick bite in the ear canal.
