Background and Aim: Chairside computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems have become considerably more accurate, reliable, efficient, fast, and prevalent since 1985 when CEREC was introduced. The inceptive restorative material option for chairside CAD/CAM restorations was limited to ceramic blocks. Today, restorative material options have been multiplied and include me...

The National Ignition Facility (NIF) target chamber contains precision motion control systems that reach up to 6 meters into the target chamber for handling targets and diagnostics. Systems include the target positioner, an alignment sensor, and diagnostic manipulators (collectively called positioners). Target chamber shot experiments require a variety of positioner arrangements near the chambe...

BACKGROUND Heart rate turbulence (HRT) assessment is used as noninvasive method based on physiological sinus node response to the premature ventricular beat. Blunted HRT may indicate the autonomic nervous system impairment and can be helpful in identifying high-risk patients. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) leads to cardiovascular complications. Autonomic nervous system and baroreflex d...

background and aims. the aim was to evaluate the effect of casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) on microtensile bond strength (µtbs) to carious affected dentin (cad) using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems. materials and methods. the occlusal surface of 32 human molars with moderate occlusal caries was removed. infected dentin was removed until reaching cad an...

Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants contributing to the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at the chromosome 9p21 locus. The chromosome 9p21 is an important susceptibility locus for several multifactorial diseases like ischemic stroke, aortic aneurysm, type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease (CAD). F7 gene because of its role in activating the ...

The paper deal about automated assembly manufacturing cell design. First part is about Methods and techniques used for assembly systems design. Next part describes specific CAD systems used for design process of our assembly cell. With help of this CAD toll we have design geometric disposition of all system elements by CATIA and also parts of control system by FluidSim. Whole design problematic...
