The lifetime of a ceramic is dependent on the presence of incidental cracks and their gradual propagation under the conditions of the oral cavity. The objective of this study was to examine the long-term strength of glass-infiltrated alumina- and various zirconia ceramics currently used in CAD/CAM systems to manufacture crown and bridge frameworks. Fracture mechanics were applied to determine c...

The present research paper seeks to ascertain whether students respond emotionally literature—as it is argued that the emotions experienced during reading help interpret literary texts. To end, study departs from an investigation of students’ personal responses only determine emotion-based exist in EFL context, thus answering central question guides this work: do affective literature exist? sta...

In this paper we study the implications of the recent high precision measurement of (g−2)μ by BNL [1] on new heavy physics beyond the SM. The effect of two d=6 operators on the anomalous magnetic momment of the muon is considered and the new physics contribution to aμ reported by BNL has been used to put bounds on the scale associated with these operators.
