Purpose. To investigate peri-implant alveolar bone changes using periapical radiographs before and after prosthetic delivery in submerged and nonsubmerged dental implants. Methods. Digital periapical films of 60 ITI Straumann nonsubmerged dental implants and 60 Xive Dentsply submerged dental implants were taken before, immediately after, and 12 and 24 weeks after the prosthetic restoration was ...

The growth kinetics of Aspergillus nidulans, Mucor hiemalis and Penicillium chrysogenum on solid media and in submerged culture were studied. Growth of A. nidulans colonies on solid medium can be divided into the four phases of lag, exponential, deceleration and constant growth rate. The growth kinetics of A. nidulans in submerged culture were similar to those commonly found for unicellular mic...

AIM The aim of this study was to document the influence of healing type on the marginal bone loss around dental implants placed in the anterior mandible. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 48 edentulous patients rehabilitated with 96 Astra Tech dental implants left to either submerged or nonsubmerged healing were included in the study group. The patients were examined in consecutive routine rec...

Pool and weir is a type of fishway that provides a route for fish to migrate to damupstream. The effective parameters for fish swimming include velocity, water depth andturbulence. Several rubber dams have been under construction in Mazandaran Province, butthe necessary structures have not been built around them yet. When constructing these rubberdams, numerical models can be used to evaluate f...

lin apparatus ,·,hieh could produce known amounts of angular momenlum in a pipeline was verified by direct measurement of axial and tangential velocity profiles. By using the assumption that a vortimetcr, with vanes spanning only the rotational core, responded to an equivalent solid rotational core, an expression was develop­ ed relating the angular velocity to the angular momentum. Comparison ...

The impeller of a centrifugal pump plays an important role because it determining the flow rate and efficiency pump. is determined by design design. Under filing one method for removing material from underside vane at exit. also increases head. involves having blade height that lower than nominal diameter, which can lead to reduced power consumption, improved characteristics, decreased noise vi...

The growing market for industrial gas turbines has led to an increased demand for large, cost-effective units of high efficiency, A critical issue in the development of such units is the durability of hot section components, especially first stage blades and vanes to which thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are applied. This paper introduces the current state of the art in the production of TBCs, ...

A pumped storage stations model was set up and introduced in the previous paper. In the model station, the S-shaped characteristic curves was measured at the load rejection condition with the guide vanes stalling. Load rejection tests where guide-vane closed linearly were performed to validate the effect of the S-shaped characteristics on hydraulic transients. Load rejection experiments with di...
