Numerical experiments on biological interfacial layer, DEJ by finite element software ABAQUS have been conducted to study its fracture behavior including crack bridging / arresting characteristics in the model. Crack growth simulation has been carried out by numerical tool, XFEM, devoted to study cracks and discontinuities. The fracture toughness of DEJ has been estimated before and after crack bridging. The implications of bridging in numerical study of fracture behavior of DEJ-like biological interface have been discussed. It has been observed that the results provided by the numerical studies without proper accommodation of bridging phenomenon can mislead. This study can be helpful for understanding the DEJ-like biological interface in terms of its fracture toughness, an important material characteristics. This property of the material is an important measure that has to be taken care during design and manufacturing processes.

파쇄매질에서 불규칙한 양상의 유체유동과 용질이동의 모의를 위하여 연속체 모델을 대체하는 분리단열망 모델의 이용이 확산되고 있다. 분리단열망 모델은 단열내 유량이 단열 간극의 삼승에 비례한다는 삼승법칙과 매질이 이러한 단열의 통계적 조합으로 구성된다는 가정에 바탕을 두고 있다. 본 연구는 단열교차점에서 삼승법칙의 유효성이 유지될 수 있는가를 평가하기 위하여 경계좌표계 변환법을 이용하여 단열간 교차각과 단열에서 유량분포의 관계를 분석하였다. 단열 교차각의 변화에 따른 유선의 분포에 대한 분석을 통하여 단열의 기하학적 형태가 단열의 유량분포에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 따라서, 삼승법칙에 대한 엄밀한 수치적 실험적 검증이 필요하다.

We systematically analyze the influence of fracture junction, solute transfer characteristics on transport patterns in discrete, two-dimensional fracture network models. Regular lattices and random fracture networks with power-law length distributions are considered in conjunction with particle tracking methods. Solute transfer probabilities at fracture junctions are determined from analytical considerations and from simple complete mixing and streamline routing models. For regular fracture networks, mixing conditions at fracture junctions are always dominated by either complete mixing or streamline routing end member cases. Moreover bulk transport properties such as the spreading and the dilution of solute are highly sensitive to the mixing rule. However in power-law length networks there is no significant difference in bulk transport properties, as calculated by assuming either of the two extreme mixing rules. This apparent discrepancy between the effects of mixing properties at fracture junctions in regular and random fracture networks is explained by the statistics of the coordination number and of the flow conditions at fracture intersections. We suggest that the influence of mixing rules on bulk solute transport could be important in systematic orthogonal fracture networks but insignificant in random networks.

본 연구에서는 수치모델링을 통해 단열의 교차각과 같은 기하학적 특징이 교차점에서의 유동특성과 용질의 혼합·분배에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. Pe(Peclect number; 이류와 확산의 상대적인 비)뿐만이 아니라 단열의 교차각이 교차점에서의 용질의 혼합·분배모델을 결정하는데 있어 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 교차각이 90°미만인 경우, 주입된 유동방향과 동일한 방향의 유출구로 진행하기 때문에 교차점에서 양쪽 주입구에서 온 유선들의 접촉을 용이하게 한다. 반면, 교차각이 90°보다 큰 경우 유체가 주입된 유동방향과 유출구의 방향이 반대이기 때문에, 교차점에 두 주입구에서 온 유선들 간의 접촉은 최소화 되었다. 그러므로 전자의 경우에서는 높은 Pe에서도 용질의 혼합이, 후자에서는 낮은 Pe에서도 유선경로에 따른 용질의 이동이 나타났다. 따라서 Pe < 1의 경우, 완전혼합모델이 지배적인 것으로 알려졌지만, 교차각이 150°인 경우 교차점에서 혼합뿐만이 아니라 일부는 유선의 경로를 따라 유출구로 유출되었다. 전반적으로 Pe가 0.1 - 100에서 완전혼합모델에서 유선경로모델로의 전이가 나타났지만, 이는 교차각에 따라 크게 달라진다. 교차각이 클수록(≧ 150°) Pe가 0.1 - 10에서, 교차각이 작을수록(≦ 30°) Pe가 10 - 100에서 전이가 발생하였다. Pe > 100에서는 교차각과 상관없이 유선경로모델이 더 지배적인 것으로 나타났다. Pe > 1,000에서는 교차각이 150°이상인 경우에만 100% 유선경로모델이 나타나며, 교차각이 150°미만인 경우 유선경로모델이 지배적이지만 여전히 교차점에서 용질의 혼합이 발생하였다.

It is well recognized that a excessive temperature gradient from the junction of head to skirt in axial direction in a hot pressure vessel can cause unpredicted high thermal stress at the junction and/or in axial direction of a skirt. this thermal stress resulting from axial thermal gradient may be a major cause of unsoundness of structural integrity. In case of cyclic operation of hot pressure vessels, the thermal stress becomes one of the primary design consideration because of the possibility of fracture as a result of cyclic thermal fatigue and progressively incremental plastic deformation. To perform thermal stress analysis of the junction and cylindrical skirt of a vessel, or, at least, to inspect quantitatively the magnitude and effect of thermal stress, the temperature profile of the vessel and skirt must be known. This paper demonstrated the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis for the junction of skirt to head using F.E. analysis. Effect of air pocket in crotch space was quantitatively investigated to minimize the temperature gradient causing the thermal stress in axial direction. Effect of the skirt height on thermal stresses was also studied. Analysis results were compared with theoretical formulas to verify th applicability to the strength calculation in design field.

Clinical observations were performed on 17 cases of the traumatic sternal fracture, those were admitted and treated at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery in Chosun University Hospital during the past 6 years 5months period from January 1983 to May 1989. Obtained results were as follows: 1. The frequency was about 4.8% of the nonpenetrating chest trauma. 2. The ratio of male to female was 16: 1 in male predominance and age distribution was from 24 to 62 years old. 3. The common cause were high decelerating injury [impact of the steering column] and falling down[more than 3 m in high]. 4. The most common fracture site was sternal body and next was sternomanubrial junction. 5. Associated intrathoracic organ injuries were cardiac contusion [6 cases], hemopneumothorax[1 Case], mediastinal bleeding[1 case], and thoracic cage and extrathoracic organ injuries were rib fracture, head injuries, thoracic spinal fracture, and long bone fracture. 6. Abnormal EGG findings were sinus bradycardia[1 case], bundle branch block [2 cases], and sinus tachycardia[3 cases]. 7. The operative reduction and fixation was necessary in only one case and the others were treated with conservative treatment.

This paper deals with the industrial problem of thermal striping damage on the French prototype fast breeder reactor, Phenix and it was studied in coordination with the research program of IAEA. The thermomechanical and fracture mechanics evaluation procedure of thermal striping damage on the tee-junction of the secondary piping using Green's function method and standard FEM is presented. The thermohydraulic(T/H) loading condition used in the present analysis is the random type thermal loads computed by T/H analysis on the turbulent mixing of the two flows with different temperatures. The thermomechanical fatigue damage was evaluated according to ASME code section 111 subsection NH. The results of the fatigue analysis showed that fatigue failure would occur at the welded joint within 90,000 hours of operation. The assessment for the fracture behavior of the welded joint showed that the crack would be initiated at an early stage in the operation. It took 42,698.9 hours for the crack to propagate up to 5 mm along the thickness direction. After then, however, the instability analysis, using tearing modulus, showed that the crack would be arrested, which was in agreement with the actual observation of the crack. An efficient analysis procedure using Green's function approach for the crack propagation problem under random type load was proposed in this study. The analysis results showed good agreement with those of the practical observations.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphology and intercellular junctions of the odontoblast of dental pulp in the rat incisor by means of the freeze fracture electron microscopy. Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing $150{\sim}200g$ were used. After being anesthetized by an intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 ml sodium pentobarbital per kg in body weight(60 mg/ml) the animals were perfused with 2.5% glutaraldehyde-2% paraformaldehyde fixative in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer, pH 7.2 through the ascending aorta for one hour. The incisors were carefully extracted from the jaws and demineralized by suspending them in 0.1 M EDTA in 3% glutaraldehyde (pH 7.2) for two weeks. After demineralization, the specimens were obtained from the portion divided into five equal parts. For freeze-fracture replication, demineralized tissues were infiltrated for several hours with 10%, 25% glycerol in 0.1M cacodylate buffer as a cryoprotectant and then frozen in liquid Freon 22 and stored in liquid nitrogen. Fracturing and replication were done in Balzers BAF 400D high-vacuum freeze-fracture apparatus at $-120^{\circ}C$ under routine $5X10^{-7}$ Torr vacuum. The tissue was immediately replicated with platinum unidirectionally at $45^{\circ}$ angle and reinforced with carbon at $90^{\circ}$ angle unidirectionally or by using a rotary stage. The replication process was monitored by a quartz-crystal device. The replicas were immersed in 100% methanol overnight. The tissue was then digested from the replica by clorox (laundry bleach), placed into 5% EDTA, and washed repeatedly with distilled water. The replicas were picked up on 0.3% formvar-coated 75 mesh grids and examined in the JEOL 100B electron microscope. The results were as follows; 1. Both in thin sections and freeze-fracture replicas, three types of intercellular junctions were recognizable in the plasma membrane of odontoblast: gap junction, tight junction and desmosome-like junction. 2. The nuclear pores were evenly distributed over the nuclear envelope. The pore complex formed a ring about 70 nm in diameter. 3. Gap junctions were found between odontoblasts as well as odontoblasts and neighbouring pulp cells (fibroblast, subodontoblastic cell process, nerve-like fibre). Gap junctions, which were round, ellipsoid and pear-shaped and 600 nm in diameter, were observed in the odontoblast. 4. Numerous round and ellipsoid gap junctions could be frequently seen on the plasma membranes in cell body and apical part of the odontoblasts. On the P face, the junctions were recognized as a cluster of closely packed particles, measuring about 9 nm in diameter, and on the E face, the junctions were recognized as a shallow grooves.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate interaction of restorative method according to amount of remaining clinical crown length. For the study, sixty healthy mandibular premolars with no dental caries were chosen. Specimens with clinical crown length of 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm above the cemento-enamel junction(CEJ) were prepared and root canal treatment was conducted using Ni-Ti rotaty files. Thirty specimens were restored with $LuxaCore^{(R)}$ and thirty were restored with casting posts. All specimens were restored with full coverage crowns and the fracture strength was teseted with the MTS universal testing marchine. The fracture pattern was observed by measuring the distance between CEJ and fracture line. From the results above, the fracture strength seems to be influenced more by amount of remaining clinical crown length than restorative method. Good prognosis could be expected, when more than 2mm of clinical crown length is retained. In the future, the further studies on restorative method, to increase fracture strength of teeth will be necessary.
