We made sharp optical fiber tips with less than 100 nm diameter by using the heating and pulling method with a good repetition and fabricated the photon scanning tunneling microscope (PSTM) using constant intensity mode. The 3-dimensional PZT (Piezoelctric transducer) scanner made of a long PZT tube is consisted of three divided parts, that is, a pair of $\pm$ x and a pair of $\pm$y scanning parts and a z scanning part for the fine approach and scanning. The scanning dimension is 1.43 $\mu\textrm{m}$$\times$1.76 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The height of a optical tip to maintain a constant height within $1/{\lambda}_0$ (${\lambda}_0$ is the incident wavelength) from surface of a specimen to a optical tip is controlled automatically by using the electric feedback circuit. The 3-dimensional shape of standing evanescent waves generated on the surface of a dove prism was measured successfully by using the constant intensity mode PSTM.

This study was carried out to clarify the egg, larvae and juveniles development of Abbottina springeri. For the experiments, the matured adults were collected at the Seowon-cheon, Dangjin-si, Chungcheongnam-do, in Korea. The amount of spawning of female A. springeri was about 1,225~2,100 (1,662±437, n=10). The fertilized eggs were circular in shape and 1.05~1.13 (1.08±0.02, n=30) mm in diameter. The hatching time was required 72 hours to 80 hours after fertilization under water temperature of 22℃. The newly hatched larvae were 2.10~2.23 (2.16±0.04, n=10) mm in total length and had egg yolk in the abdomen but the mouth was not opened. At 5 days after hatching, the preflexion larvae were 3.19~3.30 (3.24±0.03, n=10) mm in total length and the most of yolk-sac was absorbed. At the 15 days after hatching, the flexion larvae were 4.97~5.30 (5.13±0.12, n=10) mm in total length and the tip of the caudal fin was began to bend upward. At the 25 days after hatching, the postflexion larvae were 8.97~9.60 (9.44±0.16, n=10) mm in total length and the tip of the caudal fin was bent at 45°. At the 35 days after hatching, the juvenile were 12.0~13.5 (12.7±0.53, n=10) mm in total length and all fin-rays (iii7 dorsal fin, iii6 anal fin, i7 ventral fins) were reached a constant number of each part.

The axial fan is an element of a blower used for ventilation in various industrial fields. Many studies on aerodynamic performance have been conducted to assess axial fans using fluid dynamics. The subject was a large axial fan size, 1800 mm in diameter with 100 horsepower. The blower's axial fan consisted of blades, hubs, hub caps, and bosses are important components. The blade design has a great influence on the aerodynamic performance. 3D point data is extracted using an aerodynamic performance prediction program, and a 3D modeling shape is generated. The blades and hubs, which are important components, can be easily modified if processed by cutting owing to the environment in which blades and hubs are manufactured through die casting or gravity casting. In this study, the structural safety of components and the analysis results of weak areas at the rated operating speed of the axial fan were verified using the maximum stress and safety factor. The tip clearance reflected in the design was the rotation of the blade. To check whether there is interference with other components, the displacement result was derived to verify the structural safety of the axial fan.

In this study, the two horizontal shroud tidal current energy converter, which can generate power even under low flow speed conditions, was developed. In order to determine the shape of the shroud system, a three-dimensional numerical simulation test was conducted, and a 1/6 scale down model was made to perform a hydraulic model experiment. The hydraulic model experiment was performed under four flow conditions, and the flow speed, torque, and RPM were measured for each experimental case. As a result of the numerical simulation test, it was found that the flow speeds passing through the nozzle were increased by about 2~3 times in the cylinder, and when the extension ratio was 2:1, the highest flow speed was shown. In addition, it was found that the flow speeds increased 2.8 times when the diameter ratio between the nozzle and the cylinder was 1.5:1. Meanwhile, as a result of the hydraulic model experiment, it was found that when the tip speed ratio was between 1.75 and 2, the power coefficient was 0.32 to 0.34.

This study was performed to investigate the morophological and positional correlation between the upper cervical vertebra, the oral structures and the pharyngeal tissues, and the correlation of these anatomical structures with dental features, such as teeth wear area nad tooth contact status, etc. Seventy patients with temporamandibular disorders and sixty three dental students without any signs and symptoms in head and neck region were selected for this study. All they had natural dentition without any fixed and removable protheses. Teeth wear area and arch width wre measured from the upper dental cast, tooth contact status were observed by T-Scan system$^\textregistered$ and four cephaloradiograpohs were taken from four head postures, namely, natural(NHP), forward(FHP), upward(UHP), and downward head postiure(DHP). 22 cephalometric items were measured on the films and the data were processed with SAS statistical program. The result of this study were as follows : 1. In normal group, angle of cervical vertebra tangent and of between hard and soft palate were broader in female subjects than those in male subjacets, but distance from subocciput to axis, size of soft palate, and pharyngeal space width were larger in male subjects. 2. In normal group with natural head posture, the items correlated each others from the three anatomical regions were distance between first nad second vertebra in posterior part, distance from the lingual surface of lower anterior teeth to anterior surface of soft palate, and distance from the hyoid bone to third vertebra. 3. Three set of items showed significant correlation each other in the four head postures in normal group. First set was the angle between hard and soft palate and the idstance from subocciput to posterior arch of first vertebra, second set was the distance between first and second vertebra in posterior part and the teeth wear area, third set was number and force of tooth contact and length of soft palate and distance from anterior tip of hyoid bone to mandibular plane.

In this study, numerical analyses that considered the dynamic interaction effects between the flow and a turbine were carried out to investigate the power output performance of an H-type Darrieus turbine rotor, which is one of the representative lifting-type vertical-axis tidal-current turbines. For this purpose, a commercial CFD code, Star-CCM+, was utilized for an example three-bladed turbine with a rotor diameter of 3.5 m, a solidity of 0.13, and the blade shape of an NACA0020 airfoil, and the optimal tip speed ratio (TSR) and corresponding maximum power coefficient were evaluated through exhaustive simulations with different sets of flow speed and external torque conditions. The optimal TSR and maximum power coefficient were found to be approximately 1.84 and 48%, respectively. The torque and angular velocity pulsations were also investigated, and it was found that the pulsation ratios for the torque and angular velocity were gradually increased and decreased with an increase in TSR, respectively.

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of passive ultrasonic agitation on the cleaning capacity of a hybrid instrumentation technique. Materials and Methods: Twenty mandibular incisors with mesiodistal-flattened root shape had their crowns sectioned at 1 mm from the cementoenamel junction. Instrumentation was initiated by catheterization with K-type files (Denstply Maillefer) #10, #15, and #20 at 3 mm from the working length. Cervical preparation was performed with Largo bur #1 (Dentsply Maillefer) followed by apical instrumentation with K-type files #15, #20 and #25, and finishing with ProTaper F2 file (Denstply Maillefer). All files were used up to the working length under irrigation with 1 mL of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (Biodyn$\hat{a}$mica) at each instrument change. At the end of instrumentation, the roots were randomly separated into 2 groups (n = 10). All specimens received final irrigation with 1 mL of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite. The solution remained in the root canals in Group 1 for one minute; and ultrasonic agitation was performed in Group 2 for one minute using a straight tip inserted at 1 mm from working length. The specimens were processed histologically and the sections were analyzed under optic microscope (x64) to quantify debris present in the root canal. Results: The samples submitted to ultrasonic agitation (Group 2) presented significant decrease in the amount of debris in comparison with those of Group 1 (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The hybrid instrumentation technique associated with passive ultrasonic agitation promoted greater debris removal in the apical third of the root canals.

Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) are future building block for nano-scale devices. Especially, Ge NWs are fascinated material due to the high electrical conductivity with high carrier mobility. It is strong candidate material for post-CMOS technology. However, thermal stability of Ge NWs are poor than conventional semiconductor material such as Si. Especially, when it reduced size as small as nano-scale it will be melted around CMOS process temperature due to the melting point depression. Recently, Graphene have been intensively interested since it has high carrier mobility with single atomic thickness. In addition, it is chemically very stable due to the $sp^2$ hybridization. Graphene films shows good protecting layer for oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of metal surface using its chemical properties. Recently, we successfully demonstrated CVD growth of monolayer graphene using Ge catalyst. Using our growth method, we synthesized Ge/graphene core/shell (Ge@G) NW and conducted it for highly thermal stability required devices. We confirm the existence of graphene shell and morphology of NWs using SEM, TEM and Raman spectra. SEM and TEM images clearly show very thin graphene shell. We annealed NWs in vacuum at high temperature. Our results indicated that surface melting phenomena of Ge NWs due to the high surface energy from curvature of NWs start around $550^{\circ}C$ which is $270^{\circ}C$ lower than bulk melting point. When we increases annealing temperature, tip of Ge NWs start to make sphere shape in order to reduce its surface energy. On the contrary, Ge@G NWs prevent surface melting of Ge NWs and no Ge spheres generated. Furthermore, we fabricated filed emission devices using pure Ge NWs and Ge@G NWs. Compare with pure Ge NWs, graphene protected Ge NWs show enhancement of reliability. This growth approach serves a thermal stability enhancement of semiconductor NWs.
