Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing a multicast/broadcast service in a mobile communication system. Upon detecting an occurrence of a multicast data packet, an Internet Protocol (IP) terminal converts the multicast data packet into an alternative multicast data packet, and transmits the alternative multicast data packet to a femto Node B. Upon detecting an occurrence of a broadcast data packet, the IP terminal converts the broadcast data packet into an alternative broadcast data packet, and transmits the alternative broadcast data packet to the femto Node B.

Abstract: A bone grafting material composite is provided. The bone grafting material composite includes a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) and a carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/glycerol gel carrier. Due to the CMC/glycerol gel carrier, the implantation ability thereof is better than that of the DBM. Therefore, the bone grafting material composite can be easily used, so that a curative effect can be greatly improved. In addition, since the CMC/glycerol gel is used as a carrier, the composite with a mobility maintained is washed out by water after surgery, so that the composite can be fixed on a damaged portion of a bone.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of evaluating the fracture toughness of a material using the continuous indentation technique. In the method of this invention, the stress coefficient, strain hardening modulus and yield stress of the material are determined using the continuous indentation technique and, thereafter, the reduced elastic modulus (Er) of the material is calculated. The effective elastic modulus and the initial elastic modulus are calculated and, thereafter, the damage parameter is calculated using the void volume fraction. The critical elastic modulus and the characteristic fracture initiation point of the indentation depth are determined using the damage parameter and, thereafter, the fracture toughness of the material is evaluated. The present invention is advantageous in that the fracture toughness of a brittle material can be evaluated precisely using a nondestructive evaluation technique.
