The mechanical response and fracture of metal sandwich panels subjected to multiple impulsive pressure loads (shocks) were investigated for panels with honeycomb and folded plate core constructions. The structural performance of panels with specific core configurations under multiple impulsive pressure loads is quantified by the maximum transverse deflection of the face sheets and the core crus...

Background and Aim: One of the problems of all ceramic restorations is their risk of fracture due to occlusal loads. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of two marginal designs (shoulder and chamfer) on the fracture resistance of IPS-emax all ceramic restorations. Materials and Methods: One extracted maxillary first premolar received chamfer 50' marginal preparation (0.8 m...

• We imaged 3-D CO 2 -water drainage in vertically stacked matrix-fracture columns that are different from classic core-flood settings. Capillary continuity the fracture was key to water and invasion matrix. Fracture saturation capillary were enhanced by non-uniform pressure countercurrent flow across fracture-matrix interface. Estimation of storage capacity fractured porous reservoirs requires...

introduction: post and core has been considered for endodontically treated tooth, especially in cases with severe damage crowns. recently fiber reinforced composite posts (frc post) have been used in the treatment of endodontically treated teeth. because the length and diameter of posts are effective in stress distribution, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of length and diame...

introduction: the aim of this study was to determine the effect of different luting agents on fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth restored with casting post. materials and methods: in this experimental study, forty extracted human maxillary central incisors teeth with the mean length of 23mm were randomly assigned in to four groups. all the studied teeth were caries free without...

Fault zones and fault-related fracture systems control the mechanical behaviors and fluid-flow properties of the Earth’s crust. Furthermore, nowadays, modeling is being increasingly used in order to understand the behavior of rock masses, and to determine their characteristics. In this work, fault zones and fracture patterns are reviewed, and also comprehensive studies are carried out on the fr...

When fabricating indirect post and core, internal coronal walls are tapered to remove undercuts and allow a better adaptation. To evaluate the fracture strength of anterior tooth reconstructed with post and core and crowned, with two different taper of internal coronal walls, 6° and 30° to the long axis, two groups of 30 clear plastic analogues simulating endodontically treated maxillary centra...
