Dental professionals face an increased risk of exposure to biological fluids, aerosols, and droplets due to close patient contact, which heightens the risk of infectious diseases. Rubber dam, commonly used in dentistry, not only isolates treatment ar...
This paper presents laboratory devices on which measurements were carried out to prove the validity of the assumption about the reduction in vibrations transmitted to the conveyor belt structure generated by the impact forces of falling material grai...
This study quantifies the mechanical degradation caused by locally introduced rubber-glove contamination in stress-relieved PBF-LB/M Ti-6Al-4V. Rubber-glove fragments were inserted into defined build layers of standardized tensile specimens and into...
This paper aims to investigate the nonlinear dynamic properties of a two-point and symmetrically supported pipeline bracket system coated with the damping element using an elastic-porous metal rubber. The dynamic model of the studied two-point and sy...
Increased utilization of all ceramic restorations for aesthetic consideration in combination with routine adult orthodontic practice has led to numerous clinical challenges. Obtaining adequate bond strength between the orthodontic bracket and all-cer...
In order to avoid the influence of end restraint on triaxial stress and strain measurements, this study combines photogrammetry and computer technology to apply to the unconsolidated undrained test of triaxial soil samples. The novel method can estab...
The most used etchant in dental daily practice is the phosphoric acid (P.A.; 37%). However, acid etchants can induce necrosis on the oral mucosa and cause the ulceration of periodontal tissue when a rubber dam is not used. V-prep is a new practical a...
