Heating titanium structures is assumed to relieve tensions induced by the casting process as well as possibly optimizing some mechanical properties. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of thermal ...

Creep behavior of geosynthetics is commonly determined by means of creep tests performed with in-isolation specimens. Soil-geosynthetic interaction and duration of the tests were already addressed in previous studies with ...

Due to gradual resorption of the edentulous ridge bone, removable prostheses often require denture base relines to improve fit and stability. This research evaluated the bond strength between one heat-cured acrylic resin ...

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of ultrasonic wave propagation on the compressive (CS) and diametral tensile (DTS) strengths of glass ionomer cements (GICs). Three variables were evaluated: conventional ...

Several studies have been developed aiming to understand the behavior of saturated natural soils under small strains. A few studies have considered unsaturated soils, in most cases compacted soils and, eventually, disregarding ...
