purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two gingival finishing lines (90° shoulder and deep chamfer) on the marginal fitness of two types of full anatomic all-ceramic crowns; zirconia crowns (zikonzhan) and glass ceramic crowns (ips e-max cad) milled with cad/cam system. materials and methods: two dentoform teeth of left maxillary first molar were prepared with chamfer fini...

Synchronous stream cipher HENKOS is proposed by Marius Oliver Gheorghit to eprint for analyzing the algorithm by cryptologic community. At the first look of HENKOS, it can be observed that a 256 byte secret key is an undesirable quality of the algorithm. Also, the algorithm is not efficient in case of streaming data that has to encrypt instantaneously, this is because the algorithm generates a ...

In resource-constrained devices, adaptation of data stream processing to variations of data rates and availability of resources is crucial for consistency and continuity of running applications. However, to enhance and maximize the benefits of adaptation, there is a need to go beyond mere computational and device capabilities to encompass the full spectrum of contextawareness. This paper presen...

Flow visualization is an experimental means of examining the flow patterns around a body or over its surface. The flow is “visualized” by introducing dye, smoke or pigment into the flow in the area under investigation. The primary advantage of such a method is its ability to provide a description of the flow over a model without a complicated data reduction and analysis. Smokeflow visualization...

in this paper a new process is presented for improving efficiency of cyclone de-dusting systems. the cyclone is coupled with a specially designed cylindrical chamber which includes a rotating tube inside it with air impinging nuzzles, drilled on the peripheral surface of the tube. the nuzzles help in pushing and throwing the particles to the outer radius distances during downward flow of dust i...

the objective of this study was to diagnose integrative ecological health of an urban stream,which is located in the asian temperate region. the research approach was primarily based on the index ofbiological integrity (ibi) using fish assemblage and a qualitative habitat evaluation index (qhei). and these indexes were compared with long-term conventional chemical dataset during 1996-2005. for ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a critical role in many biological processes and are aberrantly expressed in human cancers. Particular miRNAs function either as tumor suppressors or oncogenes and appear to have diagnostic and prognostic significance. Although numerous miRNAs are dys-regulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) only a small fraction has been characterized functionally. Using high-throughput fun...

We searched for evidence of soft X-ray absorption by hot gas in the vicinity of the Galaxy in a small sample of fifteen type I AGN observed with the high resolution X-ray gratings on board Chandra. We find that around half of the sight lines in our sample exhibit absorption due to local Hor He-like Oxygen (or both) at confidence levels ranging from> 90% to > 3σ. Depending on the sight line, the...

Skeletal deformities seriously relegate the biological performance of fish. The frequency of occurrence of different types of meristic variations and skeletal deformities were shown in population of Mahseer fish, Tor putitora, in two main reservoirs; Korang stream, Islamabad and Dhobi Ghat stream, Hassan Abdal. Total of ninety-five fishes were caught randomly, forty-five from the unpolluted Kor...
