Lightweight core topologies have been considered as an advanced alternative to improve the overall performance of sandwich structures in bending. Designed beams containing 3D printed cores conventional honeycomb, re-entrant auxetic honeycomb with two positions cells, and chiral were created CATIA V5. The manufactured from polylactic acid polymer (PLA) by fused deposition modeling (FDM) using Ul...

In this work, finite element analysis has been done along with experimental test and conducted using numerical tests of the buckling response quasi-static compressive loading six layers woven cross-ply laminated composite material [0º/90º/0º] centrally square circular cutouts. The effect cut-out shape its size a load were obtained experimentally numerically. Compression experiment performed by ...

Background: Different soldering techniques have a variety of applications in dentistry. One of the most important uses of soldering is to join multiple-unit fixed partial dentures together. In this Study, two base metal alloys (Supercast and Minalux) were soldered  and their tensile, compressive and flexural strengths were measured and compared to each other. Materials and methods: In this ...

in this research, softening and ratcheting behaviors of ck20 alloy steel cylindrical shells were studied under displacement-control and force-control cyclic axial loading and the behavior of hysteresis curves of specimens was also investigated. experimental tests were performed by a servo-hydraulic instron 8802 machine. the mechanical properties of specimens were determined according to astm e8...

introduction: the purpose of the presented study was to evaluate the effect of zirconia thickness on the tensile stress of zirconia based all-ceramic restorations. methods: twenty zirconia disks with 10mm diameter were prepared in two groups using cad/cam system. the thickness of zirconia was 0.5mm in first group and 0.3mm in second group. after sintering, 0.4mm glass ceramic porcelain was appl...

Aim and objectives: To determine the shear bond strength of laser cured composite resin and compare with that of visible light cure resin and evaluate it’s clinical usefulness. Materials and methods: An argon laser with a wavelength of 488-500nm and a power density of 2.10 mW/cm and an optical diameter of 6mm with a curing time of 10 seconds was employed as against the visible light cure with a...

The aim of the present study was to utilize a strain gauge, which enabled the force applied to produce firmly attached crimpable hooks to rectangular stainless steel arch wires, to be measured. In vitro testing of two hooks, American Orthodontic (AO) and TP Orthodontic (TP), and two dimensions of stainless steel archwire, 0.019 x 0.025 and 0.018 x 0.025-inch, was carried out using an Instron Un...

The tensile strength of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL), and of surgical procedures which reconstitute it, are unknown. Ten fresh cadaver knees were prepared by isolating the patella, leaving only the MPFL as its attachment to the medial femoral condyle. The MPFL was either repaired by using a Kessler suture or reconstructed using either bone anchors or one of two tendon grafting tech...

In this study, compressive strength and contraction of Polymer Composite Laminates made of E-Glass / Carbon bi-woven fabric reinforced in Epoxy resin matrix has been evaluated experimentally. Composite laminates were fabricated using hand lay-up technique for different ply orientations of 0,30,45,60 and stacking sequence of (00/300/450/600)2S for 2 and 3 mm laminate thickness. The laminates wer...
