Dual phase steels with different martensite volume fraction and morphology were tensile tested at a temperature range of 25 to 5500C. Stress-strain curves of all steels showed serration flow at temperatures of 250 and 3500C, and smooth flow at the other temperatures. Both yield and ultimate tensile strengths increased with increasing testing temperature up to about 450<sup...

OBJECTIVE Bioactive glass air abrasion is a conservative technique to remove initial decalcified tissue and caries. This study examined the shear bond strength of composite resin to sound and decalcified enamel air-abraded by bioactive glass (BAG) or alumina using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesives. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight permanent molars were root-amputated and sectioned mesio...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of erosion and toothbrush abrasion on different restorative materials and human enamel. METHODS Human enamel and 5 kinds of tooth-colored restorative materials were used. The restorative materials included three composite resins (Filtek Silorane, Tetric EvoCeram, and Tetric EvoFlow), a polyacid-modified composite (Dyract Extra), ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of ceramic surface treatments and silane drying temperature on the microtensile bond strength (µTBS) of a resin composite to a lithium disilicate ceramic. Twenty blocks (7x7x5 mm) of lithium disilicate-based hot-pressed ceramic were fabricated and randomly divided into 4 groups: G1: acid etching with 9.5% hydrofluoric acid for 20 s and drying ...

The installation procedures (which induce mechanical damage) and abrasion can cause unwanted changes on the properties of the geotextiles. In this work, a nonwoven polypropylene geotextile was subjected to three degradation tests: (1) mechanical damage, (2) abrasion and (3) mechanical damage followed by abrasion (successive exposure). The damage caused by the degradation tests was evaluated by ...

effect of temperature on hydrodynamics of bubbling gas-solid fluidized beds was investigated.  experiments were carried out in the range of 25-600 ºc and different superficial gas velocities in the range of 0.17-0.78 m/s with sand particles. time-position trajectory of particles was obtained by radioactive particle tracking technique. these data were used for determination of mean velocities of...

in the present work, high temperature tensile properties of medium density polyethylene (mdpe) and its nanocomposites are investigated. for this purpose mdpe reinforced with different weight percentages of nano-sized calcium (2, 5, 10) are produced by compression moulding method. tensile tests have been carried out at different temperatures, i.e. 30, 60, 90c using thermomechanical analysis (tm...
