objective: despite great advances made in dental composite resins, their use is associated with some concerns regarding their mechanical properties such as their flexural strength. considering the introduction of different composite resins into the market, there is a need to compare their mechanical properties and particularly flexural strength. this study aimed to compare the flexural strength...

silica refractory bricks are used especially in the metallurgical industries, due to desirable properties suchas high melting point, rigidity, and high temperatures strength. in this research, different amount of sicwere added to silica refractory containing different binders such as borax, boric acid, calcium nitride,sodium tri poly phosphate, sodium hexa meta phosphate (shmp) and lime. physic...

in this research, the effect of variety, harvesting time and fruit size were investigated on the mechanical properties of skin, density and mechanical strength. the results showed that pomegranate cultivars (ardestani, shisheh-cap and malas) had different skin thickness resulting difference in forces required for penetration of pomegranate fruit (10%). the skin of shisheh-cap variety was thicke...

in this study , the physical and mechanical properties of polypropylene composites reinforced with bagasse alkaline-sulfite-anthraquinone, soda-anthraqouinone, monoethanolamine-anthraquinone chemical pulps and mechanical pulp (cmp) known as pulp-plastic compostes (ppc) were investigated and the results were compared among ppcs and with polypropylene composites reinforced with bagasse flour know...

due to the existence of fibrous materials such as plastic fragments, the strength anisotropy of municipal solid waste (msw) materials is the main source of differences between their mechanical response in direct shear and triaxial apparatus. as an extension of earlier research on the mechanical behavior of msw using a large traixail apparatus, results presented in shariatmadari et al. [1] and k...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the moisture effect on the strength of concrete specimens that has completely cured. This study is also aimed to develop relations that can be used to determine the properties of concrete with different moisture contents that are normally experienced in outside conditions. Numerous compressions and split tensile tests are performed. In order to better unders...
