In this study a 3D microtomography display of tooth surfaces after in vitro dental wear tests has been obtained. Natural teeth have been compared with prosthetic teeth, manufactured by three different polyceramic composite materials. The prosthetic dental element samples, similar to molars, have been placed in opposition to human teeth extracted by paradontology diseases. After microtomograp...

introduction: sensory-motor control and in general gaining balance will be impaired after an ankle injury and in fatigue situations. the aim of this research was to study the effect of exercise-based fatigue on static and dynamic balance in mountaineering athletes who were successful in returning to a suitable level of physical activity after an ankle sprain injury. materials and methods: 25 ac...

background: fatigue is one of the important factors in nursing performance because it affects the quality of care provided to the patients. in this regard, some complementary interventions such as benson relaxation techniques may relieve fatigue. this study aimed to evaluate the effect of benson relaxation on fatigue of nurses working in intensive care units. methods: this is an experimental st...

In order to study the mechanical characteristics of new asphalt pavement structural materials, UTM testing machine and Overlay Test (OT) machine, four-point fatigue test, tensile test bending strength have been carried out on different types grid mixtures. The result shows: addition grids can effectively improve properties concrete structure; geogrid stress road surface, it alleviate early gene...

To evaluate a Ni-43.5wt%Ti alloy as a new alloy for cast clasp, the fatigue properties of its castings were examined and compared with those of Co-Cr and Type IV Au alloys castings. The Ni-Ti alloy was cast into a phosphate-bonded investment mold using an argon-arc melting and pressure casting machine. The Ni-Ti alloy castings showed superelasticity in bending tests. Fatigue tests were carried ...

Most manufacturers use human-machine systems to produce high-quality products. Dealing with human-machine systems is very complicated since not only machines should be utilized in proper condition but also appropriate environment should be provided for human resources. Most manufacturers have a maintenance plan for machines but many of them do not have a proper work-rest schedule for human reso...
