This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the apical leakage among the retrograde filling materials; retrograde filling with non-zinc amalgam, cavity varnish and non-zinc amalgam, z.o.e cement, Glass Ionomer cement, scotch bond and silux. Sixty single rooted teeth were divided into six groups and each tooth was individually prepared for its particular group. The specimens were incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs and then were infiltrated by 2% methylene blue for 7 days. Apical leakage was evaluated by measuring the degree of dye penetration between the filling material and the canal wall. The results were as follows: 1. The scotch bond and silux group showed the least amount of apical leakage and the control group showed the greatest amount of apical leakage. 2. The groups retrofilled with cavity varnish and amalgam, glass-Ionomer cement, scotch bond and silux showed significantly good apical seal than control group. 3. The groups retrofilled with glass Ionomer cement, scotchbond and silux showed significantly good apical seal than the groups retrofilled with Amalgam and Zinc oxide eugenol cement.

The filling process of resin injection/compression molding (I/CM) can be divided into injection and compression phases. During the resin injection the mold is kept only partially closed and thus a gap is present between the reinforcements and the upper mold. The gap results in preferential flow path. After the gap is filled with the resin, the compression action initiates and forces the resin to penetrate into the fiber preform. In the present study, the resin flow in the gap is simplified by using the Stokes approximation, while Darcy's law is used to calculate the flow field in the fiber mats. Results show that most of the injected resins enter into the gap during the injection phase. The resin injection time is extremely short so the duration of the filling process is determined by the final closing action of the mold cavity. Compared with resin transfer molding (RTM), I/CM process can reduce the mold filling time or injection pressure significantly.

Water modeling experiments and computer simulation for the predictions of defects of die castings are very important to produce high quality castings with less cost. The relation between the variable air vent system and the characteristics of the fluid flow in the die cavity is studied by using water modeling tests, which give ideas on reasonable designing of die cavity, vent arrangement and gating system. In order to test the water modeling, injection is done by using water containing NaCl. Flow behaviors in cavities are visualized by high speed camera and video tape recorder, and local filling time is measured with electrode sensors. Special attention is paid to the configuration of die cavity. Simulated results by computer are examined and compared with the results of water modeling experiments. There are close correlations between the simulated results and water modeling ones.

채산성과 경제성에 따라 별다른 보강조치 없이 방치되고 있는 광산채굴적은 지반침하를 유발하여 주민들의 생명과 재산을 위협하고 있다. 따라서 지반침하가 우려되는 지역에 대한 보강의 필요성이 제기되어 현재 다양한 보강공법들이 적용되고 있다. 이중 가장 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 공법은 채굴적 내부로 보강재료를 압송하는 충전공법이다. 국내의 복잡한 지질환경과 채탄법은 다수의 급경사 채굴적을 형성하고 있어 수평 채굴적에 주로 적용되었던 외국의 공법을 그대로 적용할 경우 효율적인 보강효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 국내의 급경사 채굴적 충전을 위해 개발된 급결그라우트 재료의 기본물성 및 고결체 형성 형태를 파악하고, 급결그라우트 댐 및 후방에 주입 가능한 뒤채움 재료의 적절 주입량 산정을 위한 도식법을 제안하였다. 도식법에 의해 계산된 결과는 UDEC 수치해석을 통해 타당성을 검증하였다.

Polyurethane foams were produced by using a homogenizer as a mixing equipment. Effects of stirring speed on the foam structure were investigated with SEM observations. Variation of the bubble size, density of the foam, compressive strength, and thermal conductivity were studied. A hybrid foam consisting of polyurethane foam and commercial polystyrene foam is produced. Mechanical and thermal properties of the hybrid foam were compared with those of pure polyurethane foam. Advancement of flow front during mold filling was observed by using a digital camcorder. Four types of mold geometry were used for mold filling experiments. Flow during mold filling was analyzed by using a two-dimensional control volume finite element method. Variation of foam density with respect to time was experimentally measured. Creeping flow, uniform density, uniform conversion, and uniform temperature were assumed for the numerical simulation. It was assumed for the numerical analysis that the cavity has thin planar geometry and the viscosity is constant. The theoretical predictions were compared with the experimental results and showed good agreement.

During the injection molding process an excessive packing can occur in the smaller volume cavity because of volumetric difference of the family-mold. It causes warpage by increased residual stress in the product and flesh by over packing. In this study, we used a variable-runner system for the filling balance of the cavities by changing the cross-sectional area of a runner, and confirmed the filling imbalance by temperature and pressure sensors. We carried out experiments to examine the influence of types of resins such as LDPE/ABS/PA6,6 on the filling balancing of the system, in order to help mold designers, who can easily adopt the variable-runner system to their design. We also examined filling imbalance in the system with CAE analysis.

In this study, potential defects of ring-type cast products during the mold-filling stage of the casting process were investigated using computer simulation. The main focus was on the effects of runner extension and ingates. During the mold filling the molten metal flowed from the bottom to the top of the mold in two curved paths along the ring-type cavity. The fluid fronts in the two paths did not show the identical velocity during the mold filling stage. This difference in the filling speeds may cause defects such as voids and local contractions. The present model contained virtual fluid detectors at various positions inside the mold. When the molten metal passed those points, the volume of fluid jumped up from zero to one. The moments were measured to compare the speeds of the fluid fronts. We attempted various combinations of runner extensions and ingates to stabilize the flow and then to optimize the casting mold design.

In this study, the engineering characteristics of CLSM mixed with GBFS and GF were identified to review the applicability as a replacement material and further evaluate the recharge and field applicability as a joint filler material. First, Using more than 30% of GBFS to replace FA enabled bleeding control through improved fluidity. Second, When using more than 30% of FNS to replace sand, it was found that adding 0.25~0.35 of the AE agent is effective for bleeding control through improved fluidity. Third, When using more than 30% of both GBFS and FNS in combination, it was found that adding 0.3~0.35 of the AE agent is effective for bleeding control through improved fluidity. Also, it was confirmed that proper mixing of 15~60% of GF secured the effective strength and desired quality as a refiller and joint filler material.

Rheology forming technology has been accepted as a new method for fabricating near net shaped products with lightweight aluminum alloys. The rheology forming process consists of reheating process of billet, billet handling, filling into the die cavity and solidification of rheology formed part. The rheology forming experiments are performed with two different die temperatures ($T_d$ = $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$) and orifice gate type. The filling behavior and various defects of Al-Si materials with wear resistance (A357, A390 and ALTHIX 86S) fabricated in rheology forming process are evaluated in terms of alloying elements and surface non-uniformity. Finally, the methods to obtain the rheology formed products with high quality are described by solutions for avoiding the surface and internal defects.

Vacuum molding process(V-process) has several benefits such as a lower total production cost and a high quality casting comparing to the conventional sand molding. Influence of the gating design on the molten metal flow was investigated in this study. General criteria for the gating design of the castings and commercial codes for the flow and solidification analysis were used to attain the optimized gating design in V-process. Though mold cavity was filled smoothly under the low initial velocity of molten metal, molten metal dashed against the upper part of the mold before the completion of the mold filling with higher initial molten metal velocity and fell soon. This phenomenon may affect collapsing the mold shape, however it is thought that the possibility of burning out of the vinyl by the molten metal is not so high because vinyl is coated with refractory material.
