Until the mid-1950s, scientists and engineers at Obninsk Institute of Physics Power Engineering (IPPE) had worked out a number unique projects that served as foundation for development domestic world nuclear power engineering. The list these includes, in particular, TES-3, first mobile plant, which has become symbol small-scale engineering, historical achievement Russian scientists, part herita...

Conventional images/videos are often rendered within the central vision area of the human visual system (HVS) with uniform quality. Recent virtual reality (VR) device with head mounted display (HMD) extends the field of view (FoV) significantly to include both central and peripheral vision areas. It exhibits the unequal image quality sensation among these areas because of the non-uniform distri...

statement of the problem: hemostatic agents may influence the bond strength of different bonding agents. also, chlorhexidine has shown positive effects on bond strength values and their combination effect has not been reported yet. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of contamination with a hemostatic agent on shear bond strength (sbs) of total- and self-etching adhesive s...

User considerations are paramount when it comes to take up of technologies, and even more so in the case of mobile devices, in which the success of a particular device often depends on its novelty appeal. However, relatively little work has been undertaken exploring how day-to-day tasks are affected when mediated by such access devices. This paper reports the results of an empirical study place...

bioactive glass air abrasion is a conservative technique to remove initial decalcified tissue and caries. this study examined the shear bond strength of composite resin to sound and decalcified enamel air-abraded by bioactive glass (bag) or alumina using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesives.forty-eight permanent molars were root-amputated and sectioned mesiodistally. the obtained 96 specimens...

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate dentinal crack rate following parapulpal pin insertion in anterior primary teeth. Methods: Thirteen sound freshly extracted primary canine teeth were horizontally sectioned 1 mm above the cementoenamel junction (CEJ). All samples were thoroughly inspected to ensure that the teeth had no cracks. The teeth were then mounted in acrylic blocks...
