We study the following problem: determine which almost structurally complete quasivarieties are structurally complete. We propose a general solution to this problem and then a solution in the semisimple case. As a consequence, ...

Objective: The prevalence of wearing and fracture of complete dentures was evaluated among edentulous patients treated in two dental schools in Brazil. Background: Acceptance and wearing of complete dentures are related ...

There is a poor association between the dentist's evaluation of denture quality and patients' satisfaction with their dentures. Possible differences between dental professionals and patients' expectations might help explain ...

In testing from a Finite State Machine (FSM), the generation of test suites which guarantee full fault detection, known as complete test suites, has been a long-standing research topic. In this paper, we present conditions ...

Given a finite sequence of vectors F0 in a d-dimensional complex Hilbert space H we characterize in a complete and explicit way the optimal completions of F0 obtained by appending a finite sequence of vectors with prescribed ...

The aim of this study was to assess the impact of replacing conventional mandibular complete dentures with implant-supported fixed complete dentures (ISFDs) on the oral health related quality of life (OHOOL) of edentulous ...

Type A surfaces are the locally homogeneous affine surfaces which can be locally described by constant Christoffel symbols. We address the issue of the geodesic completeness of these surfaces: we show that some models for ...

We use group representation theory to obtain complete transversals of singularities of vector fields in nonsymmetric as well as reversible and equivariant contexts. The method is an algebraic alternative to compute complete ...
