High-Intensity Tasks with External Load in Military Applications: A Review

High Intensity Lasers in Periodontics: A Review

Background and Aim: Lasers can serve as a new powerful tool in dentistry. High intensity laser therapy is becoming the treatment of choice compared with conventional periodontal therapy due to accurate incision and soft and hard tissue ablation, hemostasis, reduction of postoperative pain and infection, optimal debridement, and enhanced healing. Although high intensity laser therapy assumes to ...

The Role of Strength and Power in High Intensity Military Relevant Tasks

Acoustic intensity near a high-powered military jet aircraft.

The spatial variation in vector acoustic intensity has been calculated between 100 and 3000 Hz near a high-performance military aircraft. With one engine of a tethered F-22A Raptor operating at military power, a tetrahedral intensity probe was moved to 27 locations in the geometric near and mid-fields to obtain the frequency-dependent intensity vector field. The angles of the maximum intensity ...

Investigating Factors Influencing Crowdsourcing Tasks with High Imaginative Load

This paper reports useful observations made during the design and test of a crowdsourcing task with a high “imaginative load”, a term we introduce to designate a task that requires workers to answer questions from a hypothetical point of view that is beyond their daily experiences. We find that workers are able to deliver high quality responses to such HITs, but that it is important that the HI...

Applications of nanotechnology in endodontic: A Review

Owing to its favorable impacts on the properties of materials, nanotechnology is rapidly growing. Adding nano particles to a material can significantly affect its mechanical and physical properties. In recent years, nanotechnology has been applied in the field of medical sciences in order to enhance the quality of treatment procedures. This technology can be used in various aspects of dentistry...
