Dental cast and die materials are essential material using in almost dental prsthodontic procedure and it's most important requirement is accuracy for reqorducing the oral anatomical structures. In this study, 5 abutments A, B, C, D, E were fabricated on the metal master model to simulate the arch form and specimens were poured with 4 cast materials. Inter-abutment distances, A-B, A-C, A-D, A-E, B-C, B-D were calculated using the photo-scanning and the deviations from the metal master model were also evaluated. The results were as follows; 1. The distance between A-B, A-C, A-D, A-E, B-C, B-D of the abutments A, B, C, D, E of each cast material was calculated. And after comparing the deviations between the metal master model. $Fujirock^{(R)}$ showed the lowest value with $0.20{\pm}0.22mm$, and the deviation increased in the order of $Suprastone^{(R)}$, Epoxy $Die^{(R)}$, Die $Keen^{(R)}$. There was significant difference between $Fujirock^{(R)}$ and Epoxy $Die^{(R)}$, Die $Keen^{(R)}$. 2. In each calculation area, the difference in measurements between cast material and metal master model showed singificant difference between A-B and Cross arch measure-ments of A-D, B-D, A-E(p<0.05). 3. The difference in measurements between cast material and metal master model in the A-B area showed $Fujirock^{(R)}$ to be the lowest with $0.05{\pm}0.04$mm and increased in the order of Die $Keen^{(R)}$, $Suprastone^{(R)}$, Epoxy $Dies^{(R)}$. There was significant difference between $Fujirock^{(R)}$ and $Suprastone^{(R)}$, Epoxy $Die^{(R)}$ (p<0.05). 4. The difference in measurements between cast material and metal master model in the B-C area showed $Fujirock^{(R)}$ to bo the lowest with $0.17{\pm}0.11$mm and increased in the order of $Suprastone^{(R)}$, Die $Keen^{(R)}$, Epoxy $Dies^{(R)}$. There was significant difference between $Fujirock^{(R)}$ and Die $Keen^{(R)}$, Epoxy $Die^{(R)}$(p<0.05). 5. The difference in measurements between cast material and metal master model in the B-D area showed $Fujirock^{(R)}$ to bo the lowest with $0.13{\pm}0.07$mm, Epoxy $Dies^{(R)}$and increased in the order of $Suprastone^{(R)}$, Die $Keen^{(R)}$. There was significant difference between $Fuji-rock^{(R)}$ and Die Keen(p<0.05). 6. In this experiment, Epoxy $Dies^{(R)}$ showed mean contraction in every calculation area. And when reconstruction cross arch restorations it is thought that distortion should be considered in every cast material.

With comparative analysis of running-type brassieres on the market about suitability for middle-aged women, this study is to provide basic data of running-type brassieres' pattern which is highly suitable. In the pursuit of this purpose, this study carried out wearing experiment targeting 3 middle-aged women with normal body shape which is 85B of chest circumference. The result is as follows. The significant difference was recognized in the breast. The products were rated in order of C>A>B>D, E, F, G>H by the observers, and C>B>D>A>F>E=G>H by the subjects. The significant difference was recognized in the armhole area. The products were ranked in the order of C, D>B, G, E>A, F, H by the observes and D, C>B>G>F>A>H by the subjects. The significant difference was also recognized in 6 categories(14~19) for the torso. According to the overall average values, the products were rated in the order of B, C, D>A, D, F, G by the observers and B=D>C>H>F>G>A>E by the subjects. The overall evaluation exhibited the significant difference. The products were ranked in the order of D>C>E>B>H>A>G>F by both observers and subjects. Therefore it was confirmed that the product D was appropriate in general. To conclude of comparative analysis about 8 kinds of running-type brassieres on the market, the average values of the product C and D in all categories had high marks for each category. The product C was comfortable and capable of covering the breast well, however, a gap was formed in outside-up part. The product D, made from lacy fabric, was very comfortable and well-fitted but there was inconsistency between the mold-cup and the breast shape.

This study was designed to investigate the difference of time weighted average(TWA) of noise levels and noise doses by the different operating parameter settings such as exchange rate, threshold level and criterion level for noise dosimeter in the field measurements of noise at industrial working environments. The time weighted averages of noise level and noise doses for noise working environments were determined by noise dosimeter on 80 workers employed at 20 industrial establishments of 8 industries. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The mean time weighted average(TWA) of the noise working environments by the operating parameter settings showed 93.4 dB(A) in 3 dB of exchange rate, 80 dB of threshold level and 90dB of criterion level 92.0 dB(A) in 3 dB-exchange rate, 90 dB-threshold level and 90 dB-criterion level, in 90.8 dB(A) in 5 dB of exchange rate, 80 dB of threshold level and 90 dB of criterion level, and 86.7 dB(A) in 5 dB of exchange rate, 90 dB of threshold level and 90dB of criterion level. 2. ln group of noise level less than 90 dB(A), mean TWAs of 80 dB of threshold level were significantly higher than that of 90 dB of threshold level in 3 dB and 5 dB of exchange rate. 3. The case exceeded threshold limit value of noise was 49(61.3 %) in 3dB, 80dB and 90 dB setting, 44(55.0 %) in 3 dB, 90 dB, 90 dB setting, 33(41.3 %) in 5 dB, 80dB, 90 dB setting and 26(32.5%) in 5 dB, 90 dB, 90 dB setting. Above considerations in mind, it is suggested that exchange rate and threshold level be specified in related laws and regulations in the evaluation of working environments noise.

The binaural beat is a subjective beating phenomenon due to the frequency difference of sounds heard in both ears, sensed by the human brain. The beating magnitude physically depends on the amplitudes of the two signals with slight different frequencies. Therefore, the binaural beat strength is expected to be affected by the difference in left and right hearing ability. In this study, 34 healthy subjects without hearing loss were chosen. They hear a pure tone sound (450 Hz) at 10 different Sound Pressure Levels (SPLs) (from 50 dB to 27.4 dB) through the one side of ears, while they hear the reference sound (440 Hz, 50 dB) through the other side of ears. Their subjective assessment using a semantic differential method reveals that the binaural beat strength decreases as SPL differences between the two sides of ears increases, if the difference is greater than 2.2 dB. The result suggests that the hearing loss difference between the two sides of ears should be less than 2.2 dB to maximize binaural beating effects.

Speech reception threshold is a base for word discrimination testing, but it also serves as a check for the reliability of pure tone audiogram. In order to investigate the correlation between SRT and PTA these tests were carried out in patients with conductive hearing loss and normal hearing, using Grason-Stadler 1702 Audiometer. The results were as follows; 1) The difference between the scores of SRT and PTA's was 2.4 dB with a range of -3.3 dB∼+8.3 dB in conductive hearing loss, and was 1.9 dB with a range of -6.7 dB∼+5 dB in normal hearing group. 2) The difference between the scores of SRT and each speech frequency of PTA was 6 dB at 500 Hz, 3 dB at 1,000 Hz and 8.8 dB at 2,000 Hz in conductive hearing loss, and 3 dB at 500Hz, 2 dB at 1,000Hz, and 5dB at 2,000Hz in normal hearing group.

A novel balun being the structure of a Wilkinson power divider is suggested and fabricated. One of the power dividing paths in the suggested balun uses a conventional ${\lambda}/4$ transmission line for $-90^{\circ}$ phase shifting, and the other path uses a composite right/left-handed -${\lambda}/4$ transmission line for $+90^{\circ}$ phase shifting with four series capacitors and three parallel inductors. In addition, the suggested balun uses two $50-{\Omega}$ resistors and a conventional $50-{\Omega}$ transmission line of ${\lambda}/2$ electrical length between the two output ports, achieving good isolation and reflection values of two balanced ports. The suggested balun is simulated by the advanced design system simulation program and fabricated on TLX-9 20-mil substrate. The fabricated balun has a very good values of $S_{11}$ = -27.46 dB, $S_{21}$ = -3.40 dB, and $S_{31}$ = -3.28 dB, a phase difference of $-179.5^{\circ}$, a magnitude difference of 0.12 dB, and a delay difference of 0.1 ns, with $S_{22}$ = -36.28 dB, $S_{33}$ = -27.19 dB, and $S_{32}$ = -25.2 dB at 1 GHz, respectively.

Up to now, there have been rare clinical studies on leaders and aerobics athletes. To get the useful data for protecting from auditory disorder, we selected 15 female aerobics leaders (experimental group) and 15 females (control group) unexperienced in aerobics and a without neurological and octolaryngological disorder. The average age was $34.87{\pm}8.80$ (experimental group) and $34.07{\pm}8.45$ (control group) years, and the average career of an aerobics leader (experimental group) was $8.33{\pm}4.73$ years. We measured the auditory evoked potential (AEP) of the two groups treated with 70, 75 and 85 dB intensity from January 2006 to May 2006 and analyzed the absolute latency (AL) and interpeak latency (IPL) by the SPSS/pc+ 12.0 program. In the comparison of the AL between the experimental group and the control group according to intensity, both ears treated with 70 and 75 dB had a significant difference (p<0.05) in the I, III, V wave and in the I, V wave respectively, and the experimental group treated with 85 dB showed a difference in the I, III, V wave (left ear) and in the I wave (right ear) respectively. The IPL of the two groups treated with various intensities had no prolongation. In the comparison of the AL between the experimental group and the control group according to ages, the experimental group in their 20s treated with 70 dB showed a significant difference (p<0.05) in the V wave (left ear) and in the I, III, V wave (right ear), and the experimental group in their 20s treated with 75 dB in the I, III wave (left ear) and in I, III, V wave (right ear), and experimental group in their 20s treated with 85 dB in the V wave (left ear) and in the III, V wave (right ear). The experimental group in their 30s treated with 70 dB had a significant difference (p<0.05) only in the V wave (right ear). Only in the IPL of subjects in their 20s treated with 85 dB, III-V and I-V of both ears was extended. In the comparison of the AL and IPL according to career, there was no significant difference between the two groups. From this results, we concluded that the lower sound intensity (70 dB) showed a more significant difference in the experimental group than the control group. We concluded that the leader of aerobics exposed to louder sounds than normal people are affected by auditory neurological and octolaryngological disorders. So we think that the leaders of aerobics need to control the noise level for protecting themselves against a disease.

In this work, we presented the characterization of 3 dB branch type directional couplers by using High-Tc superconducting thin films. To do this, we deposited YBCO superconducting thin films on MgO substrates by using rf-magnetron sputtering techniques. The designed center frequency was 408 MHz and the designed passband was 20 MHz. Also we designed 3 dB Power difference and $90^{\circ}$ of phase difference between port 3 and port 4. The even and odd mode analysis were used to characterize our directional couplers and em Sonnet (full wave analysis program) was utilized to the optimum design. We reported experimental results, including a center frequency, passband, half power characteristics and phase differences. We confirmed that experimental results were in good agreements with characterization by using full wave analysis program.

In this paper, we investigate the transcendental meromorphic solutions with finite order of two different types of difference equations $${\sum\limits_{j=1}^{n}}a_jf(z+c_j)={\frac{P(z,f)}{Q(z,f)}}={\frac{{\sum_{k=0}^{p}}b_kf^k}{{\sum_{l=0}^{q}}d_lf^l}}$$ and $${\prod\limits_{j=1}^{n}}f(z+c_j)={\frac{P(z,f)}{Q(z,f)}={\frac{{\sum_{k=0}^{p}}b_kf^k}{{\sum_{l=0}^{q}}d_lf^l}}$$ that share three distinct values with another meromorphic function. Here $a_j$, $b_k$, $d_l$ are small functions of f and $a_j{\not{\equiv}}(j=1,2,{\ldots},n)$, $b_p{\not{\equiv}}0$, $d_q{\not{\equiv}}0$. $c_j{\neq}0$ are pairwise distinct constants. p, q, n are non-negative integers. P(z, f) and Q(z, f) are two mutually prime polynomials in f.
