Drained cyclic triaxial tests were conducted on a saturated sand to examine its deformation characteristics under either axial or lateral cyclic loading condition. To apply lateral cyclic loading, the cell pressure was cycled while maintaining a constant vertical stress. The strain accumulations and flow direction in the soil were presented and discussed considering various initial stress ratios (η₀), cyclic stress amplitudes and cyclic stress paths. The results indicate that axial strain accumulation shows an exponential increase with the maximum stress ratio (η^max). The initial deviatoric stress has comparable effects with lateral cyclic stress amplitude on the accumulated axial strain. In contrast, the accumulated volumetric strain is directly proportional to the lateral cyclic stress amplitude but not much affected by η₀ values. Due to the anisotropy of the soil, the accumulated axial and lateral bulging strains are greater in lateral cyclic loading when compared to axial cyclic loading even though η^max is the same. It is also found that η^max affects soil's lateral deformation and increasing the ratio could change the lateral deformation from contraction to bulging. The flow direction depends on η^max in the sand under lateral cyclic loading, regardless of η₀ values and the cyclic stress amplitudes, and a large η^max could lead to great deviatoric strain but a little volumetric strain accumulation.

An analytical model about lateral crack occurring in abrasive wear of brittle solids is developed. Stress field around the lateral crack and stress intensity factor at the crack tip are analytically modeled. Abrasive wear by abrasive particle is experimentally studied. In soda-lime glass, it is observed that chipping by lateral crack occurs and produces the greatest material removal when normal load applied by the abrasive particle is about 1.5∼3.0 N. The prediction of lateral crack length from the model is compared with the experimentally measured length in soda-lime glass.

The backfilled space carl have various shapes such as vertical or lateral symmetric, unsymmetric slope depending on field conditions. Kellogg (1993) suggested the different equations for the backfill earth pressure and the lateral stress ratio considering that the stresses are different between the symmetrically sloped backfilled space and the vertical one. Kellogg (1993) assumed the stress generated on sloped wall surface as the simple internal friction angle of backfilled soil. However, Moon (1997) suggested modified Kellogg equation assuming that stress behavior in the sloped wall will be varied according to the rotation angle of principal stress and the friction of sloped wall surface. This study has compared and investigated the horizontal stresss of unsymmetrical backfilled space numerically and experimentally obtained when Kellogg lateral stress ratio is appled to and when average lateral stress ratio considering unsymmetric backfill slop of left and right are applied to the modified Kellogg equation. It is shown that the horizontal stress on the sloped wall has good match numerically and experimentally in the modified Kellogg equation when Kellogg's lateral stress ratio in symmetric condition is applied to the unsymmetric condition. But the horizontal stress on the vertical wall shows disagreement numerically and experimentally. The horizontal stress results in good agreement numerically and experimentally when the average lateral stress ratio of left and right at unsymmetric slop as applied to the modified Kellogg equation. Therefore, it is estimated that the application of the average lateral stress ratio to the left and right wall should be considered when backfilled space formed unsymmetric conditions.

This study was performed for the purpose of evaluating the stress distributions around five different types of implants according to their structures. The stress distribution around the surrounding bone was analysed by two-dimensional photoelastic method. Five epoxy resin models were made, and vertical and lateral forces were applied to the models. A circular polariscope was used to record the isochromatic fringes. The results of this study were summerized as follows : 1. Threaded type implants showed more even stress distribution patterns than cylinderical type implants when vertical and lateral forces were applied. 2. The stress concentrated patterns were observed at the neck portion and middle portion of the cylindrical type implants comparing with threaded type implants when vertical force was applied. 3. Model 1 and model 4 which are tthreaded type implants showed similar stress distribution patterns at the middle and apical portions and more stress was concentrated at the neck porion of model 1 comparing with model 4 when vertical force was applied. The stresses around model 1 were more evenly distributed when lateral force was applied. 4. More stress was concentrated at the neck and middle portion of cylindrical type implants than threaded type implants when lateral force was applied. 5. Model 1 showed the most even stress distribution patterns when lateral force was applied and stress distribution did no occured at the apical portion of modedl 2 when lateral force was applied. 6. There were almost no differences in stress concentrated patterns with or without having hollow design. And the stress concentrated patterns were observed at the corner of apex in model 5 which has hollow design when vertical force was applied.

The purpose of this study was to analyze how the stability of the implant prostheses and the loosening of the fastening screw was affected when the various types of Hex structure provided for the effect of anti-rotation of the single prostheses were given. Three dimensional finite element model was designed with which the implants with the external hex type of 0.75mm, 1.5mm and the implant with the internal hex type of 0.75mm, 1.5mm and the implant with the external hex type of $15^{\circ}$ tapered shape of 0.75mm were supposed to completely osseointegrate to the mandible. After fininshing the finite element model, the preload of 10N at the fastening screw was applied and then the vertical and $30^{\circ}$ lateral load of 200N was applied respectively at the cusp tips of the prostheses. The following results were obtained : 1. In case of displacement, the amount of displacement was increased at the internal hex type(model C, D) than at the external hex type(model A, B, E) when the vertical and lateral load was applied. 2. Less equivalent stress was represented at the model B with increased external hex height than at the model A when the vertical and lateral load was applied. 3. Much stress was represented at the model E with increased hex angle than at the model A in case of the stress happened to the implant body and the fastening screw when the vertical and lateral load was applied. 4. Much equivalent stress was represented at the model D with deepened internal hex height than at the model C when vertical and lateral load was applied. 5. The least stress was taken at the model B and the most stress was taken at the model D in case of the stress happened to the implant when the vertical and lateral load was applied. 6. The least stress was taken at the model C at the vertical load. And the least stress was taken at the model B at lateral load in case of the stress happened to the fastening screw. As a results of this study, the good lateral stability of prostheses and less stress of the component of implant was taken when the external hex height was increased, and the risk of neck fracture of implant and fastening screw was increased when the internal hex height was deepned because of long screw neck portion and thin implant neck portion.

Presently, test results and stress-strain models for poorly confined high-strength columns, more specifically for columns with a tie volumetric ratio smaller than $2.0\%$, are scarce. This paper presents test results loaded in axial direction for square reinforced concrete columns confined by various volumetric ratio lateral ties including low-volumetric ratio. Test variables include concrete compressive strength, tie yield strength, tie arrangement type, and tie volumetric ratio. Local strains measured using strain gages bonded to an acryl rod. For square RC columns confined by lateral ties, the confinement effect was efficiently improved by changing tie arrangement type from Type-A to Type-B. A method to compute the stress in lateral ties at the concrete peak strength and a new stress-strain model for the confined concrete are proposed. Over a wide range of confinement parameters, the model shows good agreement with stress-strain relationships established experimentally.

It has been held that excessive mechanical forces to the osseous and soft tissues of the TMJ result in joint dysfunction. Understanding the stress pattern on TMJ is very important in TMJ research. But, it is very difficult to measure directly the biomechanical stress distribution in the TMJ when the mandible is loaded. Therefore, stress distribution in the TMJ during functional movement was studied through animal experiment or mathematical model. It was observed and compared the stress distribution occuring in the working and balancing condyle when lower right canine, lower right first molar and lower right second molar were clenched by the three dimensional finite element analysis. Also, stress distribution in the working and balancing condyles were observed and compared when $20^{\circ}$ forward and buccal bite forces were applied to the first molar. The results were as follows : 1. Stress distribution in the condyles during unilateral clenching of the first molar, second molar, canine showed no difference. In the working condyle, tensile force was concentrated on the lateral aspect of the condylar articular surface and condylar neck. And compressive force was concentrated on the anteromedial and lateral aspect of condyle. In the balancing condyle, tensile and compressive forces were concentrated on the lateral aspect of the condylar articular surface and stress transmission to the temporal bone was not observed. 2. When lateral forces were applied to the first molar, tensile forces were concentrated on the medial aspect of the condylar neck and condylar posterior surface in working and balancing condyle. Compressive force was concentrated on the anteromedial and lateral surface of the condyle and stress transmission to the temporal bone was not observed. 3. During unilateral clenching, stress in the working condyle decreased as the occlusal load moved posteriorly while the stress in the balancing condyle increased. when lateral force was applied to first molar, the incremental amount of stress was greater than vertical load. 4. During unilateral clenching, the average balancing/working condyle stress ratio was 2.52. There was a greater concentration of stress in the balancing condyle. The ratio increased as the occlusal load moved posteriorly and decreased considerably when lateral forces were applied to the first molar.

The purpose of this investigation was to analyze stress distribution in implant supporting tissue according to different types of attachments such as combination bar attachment, Hader bar attachment, O-Ring attachment and Dal-Ro attachment that are used in mandibular overdenture by using two osseointegrated implants, to study the influence that POM IMC used in bar type attachment has in implant supporting tissue and compare the preceding analyses to find out an effective stress distribution method. Three dimensional photoelastic method was used to obtain the following results. (A) Analysis of stress distribution according to attachment type 1. Under vertical load condition, compressive stress was seen at implant supporting area of working side on all the photoelastic models but in Hader bar attachment tensional stress was seen at distal upper area of implant supporting area. Relatively Hader bar and O-Ring attachment showed even stress distribution pattern. 2. Under vertical load condition, compressive stress at implant apex area and tensional stress at implant lateral supporting area were seen at nonworking side of all models. 3. Under $25^{\circ}$ lateral load condition, general compressive stress was seen at working side implant supporting area in most of the models, especially at distal upper supporting area higher compressive stress concentration was seen in combination bar attachment and tensional stress concentration, in Hader bar attachment. 4. Under $25^{\circ}$ lateral load condition, compressive stress at implant apex area and tensional stress at implant lateral supporting area were seen at nonworking side of all models, except O-Ring model which showed compressive stress only. (B) Influence of POM IMC to stress distribution in bar type attachment 5. Under vertical load condition, better stress distribution pattern was seen at working side of combination bar and Hader bar attachment model using POM IMC. 6. Under vertical load condition, stress value was increased at nonworking side of combination bar attachment model using POM IMC and tendency of increasing compression was seen at nonworking side of Hader bar attachment model using POM IMC. 7. Under $25^{\circ}$ lateral load condition, better stress distribution pattern was seen at working side of combination bar attachment model using POM IMC but tendency of increasing stress was seen on working side of Hader bar attachment model using POM IMC. 8. Under $25^{\circ}$ lateral load condition, stress reduction was seen at nonworking side of combination bar attachment model using POM IMC but tendency of increasing stress was seen at nonworking side of Hader bar attachment model using POM IMC.

Buckling is a significant behavior to be considered whenever we design steel structures. In the case of H-shape beams, the lateral buckling occured by bending moment must be considered. Because of the lateral buckling of H-shape beams, the bending strength of the beams are determined by the lateral buckling stress instead of the allowable bending stress. Lateral buckling stress equation, consisting of two terms, i. e. ${\sigma}_{cr}({\nu},{\omega})={\sqrt{[{\sigma}_{cr}({\nu})]^2+[{\sigma}_{cr}({\omega})]^2}}$ has been using, but for the practical purpose of use the following equations are using two, i. e. ${\sigma}_{cr}({\nu})={\frac{0.65E}{{\ell}_h/A_f}}$, ${\sigma}_{cr}({\omega})={\frac{{\pi}^2E}{({\ell}_b/i_b)^2}}$. When we use the above equations, the results are different according to the shape of beam section, and they a re rather complex. In this study lateral buckling stress equation is derived, and the proposed formula$({\sigma}_{cr}(t))$ is compared with above mentioned two basic and practical equations. To verify the proposed formula experimentaly, 16H-shape beams which have different slender ratios arc tested by applying pure bending momet. Through the experiments the buckling behavior of H-shape beams is clarified, and the results shows that the proposed formula$({\sigma}_{cr}(t))$ is accurate enough for practical purpose.

Purpose: Anterior drawer and varus stress radiographs are commonly to diagnose chronic lateral ankle instability. We compared the preoperative stress radiographs with the intraoperative radiographs under anesthesia to determine the accuracy and efficacy of stress radiographs in an outpatient clinical environment. Materials and Methods: Data was collected from patients who underwent a modified $Brostr{\ddot{o}}m$ operation for painful chronic unilateral lateral ankle instability between January 2014 and June 2016. Subjects were divided into three groups-complete tear, partial tear, and instability without rupture-according to the status of preoperative MRI findings of the anterior talofibular ligament. The anterior drawer and varus stress radiographs were taken preoperatively and intraoperatively under anesthesia. Results: Ninety-six patients, with a mean age of 29.63 years, were enrolled. There were 39, 46, and 11 patients in the complete tear, partial tear, and instability without rupture groups, respectively. On the anterior drawer and varus stress radiographs of the affected limb, talar anterior translation and varus tilting were significantly increased by 2.56 mm and $2.0^{\circ}$. The gaps between the unaffected limbs were also increased by 2.47 mm and $1.32^{\circ}$ after anesthesia. Although the stress radiographs were taken under anesthesia, the results were often smaller than the diagnostic value. Conclusion: Stress radiographs for painful chronic lateral ankle instability taken at the outpatient clinic might be inaccurate for diagnosis.
