Background and Aim: Medical grade calcium sulfate hemihydrate (MGCSH) is used as a bone graft material for socket preservation. This study aimed to evaluate the changes in bone width and height after tooth extraction and socket preservation with MGCSH using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: This study evaluated 17 systemically healthy patients over a 1-year period. Th...

In this study, the seismic interaction of surface foundations and underground cavities was investigated. For this purpose, a parametric study of geometric dimensions of the foundation and cavity, their location, and the effect of the interaction between surface foundations and underground cavities was evaluated. The variable parameters include the ratio of the overburden height to the foundatio...

In the present research, behavior of SPSPs with two rectangular openings and effect of strengthening different subpanels with various stiffener arrangements is investigated. In the next step, to investigate the effect of changing opening width on the trend of degradation shear stiffness and strength of the panel, the opening width is changed. In the third step, to study the effect of changing o...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate dimensions of adult human maxillary sinuses on panoramic radiographs and their possible application on the sex determination for forensic purposes. The sample comprised 64 database panoramic radiographs from individuals aged 20 years or older (32 male and 32 female subjects), with complete permanent dentition (or absence of third molars). One examiner m...

The paper examines the effect of the solar chimney’s stack height, depth, width and inlet position on the interior performance (air temperature and speed at 1.20 m height above the ground) as well as proposes an optimal tropical solar chimney design. Simulations show that the output air temperature remains constant while the solar chimney’s width is the most significant factor influencing outpu...

seven rice varieties (hassani, deilmani, sepidrod, shahpasand, saleh, neda, and irfaon215) along with their complete diallel progenies were grown in a randomized complete block design of three replications in the growing seasons of 2006 and 2007 and were evaluated for the quantitative traits of: number of days to flowering, flag leaf length, width and area, plant height, panicle length, extrusi...

purpose : to evaluate the correlation between inner segment/outer segment (is/os) line and external limiting membrane (elm) layer integrity at foveal center and visual outcome and to investigate the prognostic factors in optical coherence tomography (oct) that related to final visual acuity (va) and recovery time in acute central serous chorioretinopathy (csc) methods : we prospectively studied...
