OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to build a photo migration model to calculate the radiant exposure (irradiancextime) in dental composite and to relate the radiant exposure with extent of cure using polymer kinetics models. METHODS A composite (Z100, Shade A2) cylinder (21 mm diameter by 15 mm deep) was cured with a tungsten-halogen lamp emitting 600 mW/cm2, 1 mm above the composite f...

An Alsynite cylinder trap and three different Williams cross-configuration traps with three adhesives were compared to determine their relative attraction to stable fly, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), adults. Williams traps coated with Olson Sticky Stuff performed as well as Williams traps coated with Tack Trap, thus allowing fly samples collected with either adhesive to be compared. The cylinder tr...

This paper presents an analytical model for calculating the deformation behavior of an elastic, composite strut comprising any number of materials, which are represented by an assembly of concentric hollow cylinder. The model is applicable for pure axial compression for short struts provided elastic instability, if any, is assessed to be of negligible effect. For a typical constituent cylinder,...

If compressor manifolds are thin compared to the shortest wavel~ngth of i:r:tt~rest, the gene!al procedure developed by the authors [1, 2] for the analysis of curved, t~l? gas cav1hes can be apphed to the analysis of gas pulsations in multi-cylinder compres~?r head cav1t1es. The procedure for smgle input single output systems is extended to systems of multl-mputs. Four pole parameters and trans...

We study the dynamicmathematical model for an infinitely long cylinder composed of an isotropic incompressible Ogden material with a microvoid at its center, where the outer surface of the cylinder is subjected to a uniform radial tensile load. Using the incompressibility condition and the boundary conditions, we obtain a second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation that describes the ...

We consider the condensation transition of microemulsion droplets of oil which are dispersed in water in the presence of surfactant. Since a macroscopic oil phase is formed due to this transition, it is called "emulsification failure." Based on the free energy approach, we determine the transition lines between the spherical and the cylindrical droplet phases as well as the phase boundary lines...

In this study, functionally graded Ni-Al2O3 composite coating (FGN-A) has been produced from nickel Watt’s bath containing different concentrations of Al2O3 particles. For this, different composite coatings were electroplated in the same bath with different particles concentration to find the optimum concentration of particles in which the maximum content with uniform distribution of Al2O3 part...
