چکیده

The main objective of the investigation was the determination of whether prestretching would decrease the rapid force loss of the elastic polymers. The results indicated that Alastik CK chains showed a significant decrease in force loss whereas the C2 chains were unaffected. Since overextending the chain to compensate for force loss during clinical placement could result in capillary bed ischemia, increasing the force loss of the CK chains must be done before application. To accomplish this the chains should be prestretched by the manufacturer or operator. An improvement in the material component or manufacturing process would provide a more lasting solution to a material for which orthodontists have found increasing use.

Influence of Temperature and Moisture on the Compressive Strength of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers

The effect of moisture absorption and high temperature on the compressive strength of unidirectional IM7/977-2 carbon/epoxy resins have been investigated experimentally. The specimens were divided into 4 groups, and tested under 4 different conditions by varying the testing temperature and moisture parameters. The fiber orientation selected were 0o, ±45o and 90o...

Examining and calculation of non-classical in the solutions to the true elastic cable under concentrated loads in nanofilm

Due to high surface-to-volume ratio of nanoscale structures, surface stress effects have a significant influence on their behavior. In this paper, a two-dimensional problem for an elastic layer that is bonded to a rigid substrate and subjected to an inclined concentrated line load acting on the surface of the layer is investigated based on Gurtin-Murdoch continuum model to consider surface stre...

Effects of Viscosity on a Thick Circular Plate in Thermoelastic Diffusion Medium

The problem treated here is to determinethe viscosity effect on stresses, temperature change and chemical potential in a circular plate. The mathematical formulation is applied to two theories of thermoelastic diffusion developed by Sherief et al. [27] with one relaxation time and Kumar and Kansal [9]with two relaxation times. Laplace and Hankel transform techniques are used to obtain the expre...
