We demonstrated a three-dimensional (3D) dental scanning apparatus based on structured illumination. A liquid lens was used for tuning focus and a piezomotor stage was used for the shift of structured light. A simple algorithm, which detects intensity modulation, was used to perform optical sectioning with structured illumination. We reconstructed a 3D point cloud, which represents the 3D coord...

objective: previous studies have demonstrated that dental stone casts can be disinfected by replacing 10v% of required water with 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution. this comparative study evaluated physical properties of dental stone models produced by replacing distilled water with sodium hypochlorite.   methods: in this in-vitro experimental study, a total of 45 dental stone models were prod...

The dissolution pattern of alpha and beta activity from gypsum sample when leached with 50,100,150ml of rain water,at different time intervals was determined. The dissolution rate increases if the solid to liquid ratio(gypsum to rain water volume) increases.It also increases with time , even though faster in the initial stages, slower in the subsequent stages. The dissolution rates are also inf...

This research determines which of the phenomena that appear during cavitation are responsible for the erosion of some brittle water soluble materials, such as gypsum and alum, when exposed to a high intensity ultrasound field over the cavitation level. The observation that gypsum suffers no erosion under the effect of an ultrasound field when the material is irradiated in a saturated solution o...

Základné vlastnosti sadrovca pre odsírenie spalín Several hundred thousand of FGD gypsum is produced annually at the Matra Power Plant (Hungary) as a byproduct of generating electricity and protecting the environment. Chemical and mechanical characteristics of this material were studied of the Department of Mining and Geotechnical Engineering, University of Miskolc (Hungary). The material in qu...

With the enlarging of industrial desulfurization, the amount of FGD gypsum is increasing rapidly. The preparation of alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate (α-HH) is one of the biggest concerns for FGD gypsum reclamation. The influence of mixed chlorate solution of Mg-Ca-Na concentrations (5-30 wt%) and FGD gypsum concentrations(5-30 wt%) by hydrothermal salt solution method at atmospheric were inve...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare microwave disinfection with chemical disinfection of dental gypsum casts. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 120 casts were prepared from a silicone mold using Type III dental stone. Of the 120 casts, 60 casts were contaminated with 1 ml suspension of Staphylococcus aureus and 60 casts were contaminated with 1 ml suspension of Pseudom...

Depending on the desulfurization reaction temperature, it can be divided into fly ash generated at hightemperature furnace zone and at low-temperature flue gas zone. For simulating those two kinds of desulfurization ash, the ordinary fly ash mixed with different weight percentage of CaSO4·2H2O is divided into 2 groups, the first group is followed by calcining at 900°C, another drying at 100°C. ...

UNLABELLED The computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) process chain for dental restorations starts with taking an impression of the clinical situation. For this purpose, either extraoral digitization of gypsum models or intraoral digitization can be used. Despite the increasing use of dental digitizing systems, there are only few studies on their accuracy. OBJECTIV...
