Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of three types of abutments in the maintenance of screw joint preload before and after cyclic loading as well as to observe possible microdamage in the structure of the components ...

This paper aims to characterize the behaviour of austempered ductile iron (ADI) under cyclic load bearing and its surface in contact with water.The first part is devoted to verifying the drop in Ultimate tensile strength ...

Field experiments have demonstrated that piles driven into sand can respond to axial cyclic loading in Stable, Unstable or Meta-Stable ways, depending on the combinations of mean and cyclic loads and the number of cycles. ...

Objectives: This study investigated the effect of relining, water storage and cyclic loading on the ultimate flexural strength (FSU) and on the flexural strength at the proportional limit (FSPl) of a denture base acrylic ...

We report for the first time effects of altering the amount of Pd supported on high-surface area carbon (Pd/C). Cyclic voltammetry in 0.1 M H2SO4 using Pd/C electrocatalysts with distinct metal-to-carbon ratio, Pd black ...

Purpose: Existing composite restorations on teeth are often remade prior to the cementation of fixed dental prostheses. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of static and cyclic loading on ceramic laminate ...
