The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) membrane exposure on the initial healing of the periodontal tissue in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedure. 90 sites selected from 90 patients were treated with gingival flap surgery supported by an e-PTFE membrane. The material included angular bony defects with probing attachment loss of > 5mm or degree II furcation involvement. Treated sites were classified with membrane exposure group and non-exposure group at membrane removal and evaluated healing type. The results were obtained as follows. 1. e-PTFE membrane was exposed at 61 sites (67.8%) among 90 sites. 2. Thirteen sites (14.4%) depicted rapid healing type, 65 sites (72.2%) depicted typical healing type, 9 sites (10%) showed delayed healing type and 3 sites (3.3%) were categorized as adversed healing type. 3. In e-PTFE membrane exposure group, 1 site (1.6%), 51 sites (83.6%), 6 sites (9.8%) and 3 sites (4.9%) showed rapid healing type, typical healing type, delayed healing type and adverse healing type respectively. 4. In e-PTFE membrane non-exposure group, 12 sites (41.3%), 14 sites (48.3%) and 3 sites (10.3%) showed rapid healing type, typical healing type and delayed healing type respectively. Adverse healing type was not observed. 5. The rate of favourable healing between e-PTFE membrane exposure group and non-exposure group was not statistically significant(p=0.56). These results suggest that the prevention of membrane exposure may be important to obtain rapid healing type. However favourable healing could be obtained with stringent infection control program even if membrane was exposed.

In order to analyze the healing effectiveness of rock salt cracks affected by the applied stresses and time, we used the ultrasonic technology to monitor the ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) variations for different initial stress-damaged rock salts during self-healing experiments. The self-healing experiments were to create different conditions to improve the microcracks closure or recrystallized, which the self-healing effect of damaged salt specimens were analyzed during the recovery period about 30 days. We found that: The ultrasonic pulse velocity of the damaged rock salts increases rapidly during the first 9 days recovery, and the values gradually increase to reach constant values after 30 days. The damaged value and the healed value were identified based on the variation of the wave velocity. The damaged values of the specimens that are subject to higher initial damage stress are still keeping in large after 30 days recovery under the same recovery condition It is interesting that the damage and the healing were not in the linear relationship, and there also existed a damage threshold for salt cracks healing ability. When the damage degree is less than the threshold, the self-healing ratio of rock salt is increased with the increase in damage degree. However, while the damage degree exceeds the threshold, the self-healing ratio is decreased with the increase in damage.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare initial implant stability measured by RFA between different implant systems during the initial healing period. Material and Methods: Fifty-four patients (36 males/18 females) who had been treated at the Department of Periodontology, Chonbuk National University Dental Hospital during the period between January and November in 2007 were included in the study. The mean age of the subjects was 49 years old (18 to 77). A total of 104 implants (Type A: 3i $Osseotite^{(R)}$, Type B: $Replace^{(R)}$ select, Type C: ITI implant) were placed following the manufacturer's standard surgical protocols. Implant stability quotient (ISQ) readings were obtained for each implant at the time of surgery, 2-, and 4-month postoperatively. Result: No implant was failed during the observation period. At the baseline, the difference between mean ISQ values of 3 implant systems was statistically significant (p<0.05). However, at 2-, and 4-month following implant surgery, no significant difference was observed between ISQ values of the implant systems. In the same implant, the ISQ values of Type B and C implants increased (p<0.05), but those of Type A implants decreased during the 2-month healing period. The mean ISQ values of Type B and C implants showed a increasing tendency, while those of Type A implants were stable for the 4-month follow-up period. Conclusion: Within limits of this study, it can be concluded that implant design and surface topography of implant might influence the ISQ value and changing pattern during the initial healing period.

골치유 기간 중 임플란트-골 계면에서 일정 수준 이상의 미세동요가 발생하게 되면 임플란트의 골유착이 방해받게 되므로 임플란트 식립 후 초기 골반응에 관해 임플란트 안정성은 하나의 지표가 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 임플란트 식립 후 전향적인 연구를 통해 초기 임플란트 안정성 변화를 추적하여 골치유 양상을 추론하고자 하였다. 총 26명의 환자에게 식립된 30개의 임플란트를 대상으로 하악골에 1회법으로 식립 직후 1주 간격으로 12주간 공진주파수분석을 시행하여 초기 안정성의 변화를 구하였으며 식립 직후와 1개월 간격으로 변연골 흡수 정도를 방사선학적 방법으로 측정하였다. 식립 직후와 각 치유기간 동안의 ISQ값 비교에서 식립 4주에서 6주사이에 골질에 따른 차이를 보였으나(P<0.05), 6주 이후에는 골질군 간에는 임플란트 안정성 변화에 차이가 없었다(P>0.05). 방사선학적 검사에서는 변연골의 차이가 관찰기간내에 유의하게 변화하지 않았다(P>0.05). 임플란트 식립 후 초기 골치유과정은 골흡수과정에 연속적인 과정으로 4주 이후 바람직한 골치유과정이 진행됨을 공진주파수분석으로 관찰할 수 있었다.

최근 콘크리트 구조물의 유지보수 문제가 대두되면서 구조물에 발생하는 균열을 스스로 치유하는 자기치유 기술이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 현재 자기치유 콘크리트의 치유 성능 평가에 투수시험이 널리 사용되지만, 이와 관련된 표준화된 방법이 없어 시험결과의 비교에 어려움이 있다. 또한 콘크리트의 자기치유 성능은 초기 균열폭에 큰 영향을 받는데, 콘크리트의 균열폭 측정을 위한 표준화된 방법도 없는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정수위 투수시험 장치를 이용하여 수두차와 균열폭이 유출수량에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 투수 실험 결과의 회귀 분석을 통해 유출수량과 초기 균열폭의 상관관계식을 제안하였으며, 제안된 식을 이용하여 예측한 모르타르 시편의 균열폭이 광학현미경을 이용하여 측정한 실제 균열폭과 잘 일치하는 결과를 얻었다.

Self healing systems are considered as cognation-enabled sub form of fault tolerance system. But our experiments that we report in this paper show that self healing systems can be used for performance optimization, configuration management, access control management and bunch of other functions. The exponential complexity that results from interaction between autonomic systems and users (software and human users) has hindered the deployment and user of intelligent systems for a while now. We show that if that exceptional complexity is converted into self-growing knowledge (policies in our case), can make up for initial development cost of building an intelligent system. In this paper, we report the application of AHSEN (Autonomic Healing-based Self management Engine) to in OKKAM Project infrastructure backbone cluster that mimics the web service based architecture of u-Zone gateway infrastructure. The 'blind' load division on per-request bases is not optimal for distributed and performance hungry infrastructure such as OKKAM. The approach adopted assesses the active threads on the virtual machine and does resource estimates for active processes. The availability of a certain server is represented through worker modules at load server. Our simulation results on the OKKAM infrastructure show that the self healing significantly improves the performance and clearly demarcates the logical ambiguities in contemporary designs of self healing infrastructures proposed for large scale computing infrastructures.

본 논문에서는 복합재료 IM rod가 적용된 골절부의 세포 분화과정을 모사하기 위해 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 세포의 골화과정을 해석하기 위해 편향 변형률을 이용한 메카노 규제 이론을 사용하였으며, 반복 계산을 위해 Python 코드를 이용하여 서브루틴을 구현하였다. 치료에 가장 적절한 복합재료 IM rod의 강성을 찾기 위해 직물 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료 (WSN3k)의 적층각도를 바꾸어 해석을 실시하였다. 골절부에 가해지는 기계적 자극에 따른 치료효율을 비교하기 위해 두 가지 초기 하중 조건을 적용하였다. 그 결과 치료효율은 강성의 차이보다 하중에 의해 큰 영향을 받았으며, 초기 하중이 몸무게의 10%이고, 적층순서가 $[{\pm}45]_{nT}$일 때 치료효율이 가장 높았다.
