The chamfer enhances the performance of the tool by strengthening the edge and reducing the possibility of tool wear and breakage. The strength of the chamfered tool can be investigated by analysis of process variables. This research investigates the effects of chamfer width and chamfer angle on process variables (force, stress, tool temperature and tool stress) in machining of a mild carbon lo...

OBJECTIVE One of the major problems of all ceramic restorations is their probable fracture against the occlusal force. The aim of the present in-vitro study is was to compare the effect of two marginal designs (chamfer & shoulder) on the fracture resistance of zirconia copings, CERCON (CAD/CAM). MATERIALS AND METHODS This in vitro study was done with single blind experimental technique. One s...

The current study evaluated the effect of different cervical finish line designs on the marginal adaptation of a zirconia ceramic. Four different marginal finish lines (c: chamfer, mc: mini-chamfer, fe: feather-edge and s: rounded shoulder) were prepared on phantom incisors. Die models for each preparation group (N = 28, n = 7 per finish line design group) were made of epoxy resin. Y-TZP (ICE Z...

The distance transform has found many applications in image analysis. Chamfer distance transforms are a class of discrete algorithms that offer a good approximation to the desired Euclidean distance transform at a lower computational cost. They can also give integer-valued distances that are more suitable for several digital image processing tasks. The local distances used to compute a chamfer ...

An algorithm Mscan is proposed for the computation of the distance transform of a feature in an image with respect to a chamfer distance. The algorithm is na vely simple and can therefore be easily parallellized. It seems to be new, even for special cases. It is not correct for arbitrary chamfer distances but, by a general analysis of masks and their weights, suucient conditions for its correct...

Objective The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of Shoulder versus Chamfer margin design on the marginal adaptation of zirconia (Zr) copings. Materials and Methods 40 extracted molar teeth were mounted in resin and prepared for zirconia crowns with two margin preparation designs (20=Shoulder and 20=Chamfer). The copings were manufactured by Cercon® (DeguDent GmbH, Germa...

Image matching is an important task. There are many available methods for occluded image matching. In this paper we propose new simple image-matching algorithm, modified chamfer matching algorithm (MCMA). Distance transform and conventional chamfer matching algorithm are explained. Examples to demonstrate the algorithm and necessary results are also included. Proposed MCMA is robust, and to an ...

Abstract The tool geometry is generally of great significance in metal cutting performance. response surface method was used to optimize chamfer achieve reliable and minimum wear slot milling. Models were developed for edge chipping, rake wear, flank wear. adequacy the models verified using analysis variance at a 95% confidence level. Each optimized individually, multiple responses simultaneous...

This paper will examine the current chamfer and vector distance transforms for encoding objects as distance elds. A new vector distance transform is introduced which uses the city-block chamfer distance transform as a basis. Detailed error analysis using real CT data is presented demonstrating the improved accuracy the new approach gives over existing methods. The production of a sub-voxel accu...
