Objective: To analyze the overall treatment effects in terms of the amount of uprighting with changes in the three-dimensional positions of the mandibular posterior teeth after applying the biocreative reverse curve (BRC) system. Methods: Thirty-four patients (mean age, 20.5 ± 8.56 years) were treated using the BRC system (mean period, 8.17 ± 2.19 months). Cone-beam computed tomography was performed before treatment and after treatment with the BRC system. The three-dimensional movement of each tooth was analyzed in the coordinate system at points on the crown and root apex. A paired t-test was used to analyze the treatment effects of the BRC system. Results: The application of the BRC system spanning from the first premolar to the second molar resulted not only in buccal and distal uprighting, but also in increased buccal and distal tipping of the teeth. The premolars and the first molar were extruded, and the second molar was intruded. Conclusions: When the BRC system is applied, simultaneous distal and buccal uprighting of the premolars and molars can be achieved bilaterally using a temporary skeletal anchorage device without unnecessary movement of the anterior teeth.

Here we propose a new equation by which we can estimate the baseline for measuring the peak current of the reverse curve in a cyclic voltammogram. A similar equation already exists, but it is a linear algebraic equation that over-simplifies the voltammetric curve and may cause unpredictable errors when calculating the baseline. In our study, we find a quadratic algebraic equation that acceptably reflects the complexity included in a voltammetric curve. The equation is obtained from a laborious numerical analysis of cyclic voltammetry simulations using the finite element method, and not from the closed form of the mathematical equation. This equation is utilized to provide a virtual baseline current for the reverse peak current. We compare the results obtained using the old linear and new quadratic equations with the theoretical values in terms of errors to ascertain the degree to which accuracy is improved by the new equation. Finally, the equations are applied to practical cyclic voltammograms of ferricyanide in order to confirm the improved accuracy.

Reverse engineering has been widely used for the shape reconstruction of an object without CAD data and the measurement of clay or wood models fur the development of new products. To generate a surface from measured points by a laser scanner, typical steps include the scanning of a clay or wood model, the generation of compatible input curves, the generation of a surface and manufacturing data like G code or STL file. A laser scanner has a great potential to get geometrical data of a model for its frost measuring speed and higher precision. The data from a laser scanner are composed of many line stripes of points including small spikes and noise. A new approach using automated surface generating algorithm is introduced to deal with problems during reverse engineering process. And the input data and the generated surface are represented in IGES format, thus can be supplied to other CAD/CAM software without any data manipulation.

Objective: To investigate the effects of reversing the coiling direction of nickel-titanium closed-coil springs (NiTi-CCSs) on the force-deflection characteristics. Methods: The samples consisted of two commercially available conventional NiTi-CCS groups and two reverse-wound NiTi-CCS groups (Ormco-Conventional vs. Ormco-Reverse; GAC-Conventional vs. GAC-Reverse; n = 20 per group). The reverse-wound NiTi-CCSs were directly made from the corresponding conventional NiTi-CCSs by reversing the coiling direction. Tensile tests were performed for each group in a temperature-controlled acrylic chamber ($37{\pm}1^{\circ}C$). After measuring the force level, the range of the deactivation force plateau (DFP) and the amount of mechanical hysteresis (MH), statistical analyses were performed. Results: The Ormco-Reverse group exhibited a significant shift of the DFP end point toward the origin point (2.3 to 0.6 mm), an increase in the force level (1.2 to 1.3 N) and amount of MH (1.0 to 1.5 N) compared to the Ormco-Conventional group (all p < 0.001), which indicated that force could be constantly maintained until the end of the deactivation curve. In contrast, the GAC-Reverse group exhibited a significant shift of the DFP-end point away from the origin point (0.2 to 3.3 mm), a decrease in the force level (1.1 to 0.9 N) and amount of MH (0.6 to 0.4 N) compared to the GAC-Conventional group (all p < 0.001), which may hinder the maintenance of force until the end of the deactivation curve. Conclusions: The two commercially available NiTi-CCS groups exhibited different patterns of change in the force-deflection characteristics when the coiling direction was reversed.

PURPOSES : This study is to conduct the research on the design principle for the driver's safety and comfort in installing consecutive curves of superhighway. METHODS : Superhighway does not currently exist in domestic area. Thus, this study is conducted by collecting driving behavior usage of 30 people who are involved in the members of the virtual driving simulation. By identifying the distribution characteristics of each scenario in ANOVA & Tukey Test, the distribution are categorized into three groups. RESULTS : In the case of Group A in Section 3 (R2 entry part), lane departure exceeds the safety standard, which means to be risky condition. And then in the case of Group B and C, the lane departure values applying theoretical formula was evenly distributed compared to the proven values. CONCLUSIONS : Based on the result, the continuous curve design principles at superhighway should follow three standards as follow. First, an additional linear part needs to be inserted between two curves. Second, what if inserting the linear part is difficult, it would be better to insert a curve more than 2,000m. Third, R1/R2 ratio should not be over two. This design primarily aims to the safety of the operator. Such road alignment also meets the expectations of drivers, thus, it may help drivers to be compatible and amenable while driving continuous curve in superhighway.

태양광 발전시스템의 설치 용량이 증가함에 따라 시스템 효율을 개선하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 고성능 시스템의 설계 및 시험을 위해서는 태양전지의 모델링을 바탕으로 태양전지의 물리적 특성에 관해 정확히 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 태양전지의 모델은 다수의 파라미터가 얽힌 비선형 형태이며, 모델식의 파라미터 값을 얻기 위한 기존의 방식에서는 오차를 동반하는 실제와 다른 가정을 전제로 하므로 결과적으로 추출된 파라미터의 정확도가 저하되게 되는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 제조사가 표준상태에서 측정하여 공개하는 태양전지의 I-V 커브로부터 다이오드의 이상계수와 역포화 전류를 구하고 이로부터 저항 성분이 없는 이상적인 태양전지의 I-V 커브를 도출한 뒤, 실측된 I-V 커브와 차이를 최소화하는 직·병렬 저항값을 추출하는 새로운 방식을 제안한다. 기존의 방식과 제안된 방식의 모델링을 통하여 얻은 파라미터를 이용해 구현한 I-V 커브와 실측 I-V 커브와의 상관관계를 최소자승법을 통해 계산함으로써 제안된 방법의 유용함을 증명하였다.

본 연구는 경주 단석산 상부 남사면의 상수리나무 우점 식분의 군집구조 변화를 파악하기 위하여 고정 방형구 20개를 설치하고 1999년부터 2018년까지 5회의 매목조사를 실시하였다. 밀도는 1999년에 0.33에서 2012년에 0.20으로 감소하였으나 2018년에는 0.24로 다소 증가하였다. 전체 수목의 흉고직경계분포를 보면, 1999년에는 역J자 유사한 모양의 분포를 나타내었으나 그 후 분포가 변화되어 2018년에는 어린 개체들에서는 역J자 모양이, 성숙한 개체들에서는 종 모양이 나타나 전체적으로는 두 곡선이 연결된 형태의 분포를 나타내었다. 흉고직경 13cm이하에서는 수목들의 경쟁이 심하였으나 그 이상에서는 완화되는 것으로 나타났다. 최우점종인 상수리나무의 흉고직경계 분포는 종 모양의 분포를 보였고, 시간이 지남에 따라 흉고직경이 큰 쪽으로 분포가 이동하지만 개체수는 줄어들었고, 신갈나무는 낮은 종 모양의 분포가 점점 높아지는 변화를 보였다. 흉고직경계분포의 변화로 볼 때, 단석산의 상수리나무 식분은 이차천이의 초기 단계에서 중간 단계로 삼림천이가 진행 중인 것으로 판단이 되며, 현재 본 식분의 최우점종은 상수리나무이고 준우점종은 신갈나무이지만, 향후 신갈나무가 최우점종인 식분으로의 천이가 진행될 것으로 예상된다.

Flow analysis was carried out for two vertical pumps. The geometrical difference of two pumps is the adoption of vaned diffuser. Full pump models were used to simulate the velocity fields of the pumps. Pump head and velocity field were compared to obtain the features of diffuser flow. It was shown that the discontinuity of head curve was predicted and reverse flow could be generated at impeller exit even in the rated flow condition.

The purpose of reverse engineering design using 3D measurement data is an accurate reconstruction of real body. In oder to accomplish this object, it is important that creating exact extracting edges should be studying out first of all. This study used edge-based method to find out edge point from the measuring point data. The characteristics are analysed using the mean curvature block method on the fitting NURBS curve and defined edges through block removal condition. The results showed that only using the NURBS curve of maximum curvature analysis to define correct edge of real geometry is limited, but this segmentation approach provides simplified necessary condition for edge classification, and an effectiveness to classify a straight line, curves and fillets etc.
