Development of Multi-Purpose Biological Reference Materials

Multi-purpose materials in dentistry - is it possible to match maximum mechanical and biological properties/performance?

In this issue of the Journal of Applied Oral Science, two interesting studies raise an intriguing question: is it possible to match great mechanical and biological properties in multipurpose materials used in dentistry? In the first study, Caldeira, et al. 1 (2013) investigate the antimicrobial and fluoride release ability of orthodontic bonding materials. Obviously, an efficient bonding is the...

Development of a Small, Multi-Purpose, Autonomous Surface Vessel

The long term goals of this research activity are to significantly increase the performance and affordability of small AUV systems by eliminating their need for expensive navigation equipment by providing exact position updates through an acoustic uplink system with a geographically positioned ASV. The mobile surface acoustic link shall also allow the AUV to communicate data while in transit an...

The development of a multi-purpose spoken dialogue system

In this paper we describe a multi-purpose Spoken Dialogue System platform associated with two distinct applications as an home intelligent environment and remote access to information databases. These applications differ substantially on contents and possible uses but gives us the chance to develop a platform where we were able to represent diverse services to be accessible by a spoken interfac...

Development of multi-purpose Switching MUX for the ultrasound measurement

In this thesis, it is presented the proposed development of the Switching MUX with the array transducer by use of Delay-And-Sum Beamforming technology for a more accurate measurement. Among the several measurement methods, it is studied two ways, i.e. Pulse-Echo method and the radiation conductance measurement. In this paper, we propose to the multipurpose Switching MUX all interfacing the two ...
