Objective: To choose a kind of more reasonable attachment by comparing three-dimensional finite element stresses of two kinds of attachments in anterior implant fixed bridge and posterior extracoronal attachment denture to restore maxillary edentulous jaw. Materials and Methods: The three-dimensional finite element model of extracoronal resilient attachment model (model I) was reconstructed whi...

The failure mechanism is the key problem for calculating inclined loads adjacent to undrained soil slope. Based on slip line field and boundary value problems, a new proposed evaluate rationality of method proved by definition ultimate load finite element upper bound analysis (FE-UB). It not reasonable assume models since vary with inclination angle. gives evaluating indicator, which first calc...

This paper presents the bearing capacity determination of strip footing placed on sand underlain by clay and subjected to inclined loading. The equation is derived within framework limit equilibrium following projected area approach. inclinations load spread were selected performing an additional finite element analysis. A parametric study was conducted highlight effect various input parameters...

The objective of this paper is to provide a state of the art review of the application of yield-line analysis to cold-formed steel members, and present a newly developed solution to the stresses that develop in an inclined yield-line. Yield-line analysis in cold-formed steel members is shown to be distinct from traditional yield-line applications. Challenges in the application of yield-line ana...

INTRODUCTION Inclined walking while carrying a loaded backpack induces fatigue, which may destabilize gait and lead to injury. Stochastic resonance (SR) technology has been used to stabilize spatiotemporal gait characteristics of elderly individuals but has not been tested on healthy recreational athletes. Herein, we determined if sustained vigorous walking on an inclined surface while carrying...

The aim of the study was to compare the EMG activity performing 6RM competition style bench press (flat bench-wide grip) with 1) medium and narrow grip widths on a flat bench and 1) inclined and declined bench positions with a wide grip. Twelve bench press athletes competing at national and international level participated in the study. EMG activity was measured in the pectoralis major, anterio...
