In this work, an inverse finite element formulation was modified for considering material anisotropy in obtaining blank shape and forming severity of deep drawn orthotropic parts. In this procedure, geometry of final part and thickness of initial blank sheet were known. After applying ideal forming formulations between material points of initial blank and final shape, an equation system was obt...

Physical activity is entering the virtual realm. Zwift an at-home cycling system that enjoying increasing popularity, yet specifics of experience a cyclist have not been studied to date. Building sports systems can make physical accessible more diverse user groups. To understand how and why users engage in cycling, we conducted n=22 interviews with users. Through charting motivations behind usi...

OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that there is no difference in the stability and resistance to rotational moments of early loaded sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) mini-implants and those of machined-surface implants of the same size and shape. MATERIALS AND METHODS A randomized complete block design was used in 12 skeletally mature male beagle dogs. Ninety-six orthodontic mini-implants were...

Blank nodes are defined in RDF as ‘existential variables’ in the same way that has been used before in mathematical logic. However, evidence suggests that actual usage of RDF does not follow this definition. In this paper we thoroughly cover the issue of blank nodes, from incomplete information in database theory, over different treatments of blank nodes across the W3C stack of RDFrelated stand...
