As uniões parafusadas possuem uma grande aplicação na indústria, mas quando se pensa na utilização de parafusos existe uma impressão de ser um elemento de simples dimensionamento e de fácil aplicação. No entanto, o ...

Skin friction of piles can be calculated with the torque measurement in the Standard Penetration Test, SPT-T, proposed by [1]. The purpose of this paper is to provide understating of the influence of angular thrust and ...

Internal tapered connections were developed to improve biomechanical properties and to reduce mechanical problems found in other implant connection systems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of mechanical ...

The continuous development of instruments and equipment used as tools or torque measurement in the industry is demanding more accurate techniques in the use of this kind instrumentation, including development of metrological ...

The screw loosening of implant-supported prostheses is a common mechanical failure and is related to several factors as insertion torque and preload. The aim of this study was to evaluate the torque maintenance of retention ...
