Loading Standardization of Postendodontic Restorations In Vitro: Impact of Restorative Stage, Static Loading, and Dynamic Loading

Microleakage of Endodontic Temporary Restorative Materials under Dynamic Loading

During endodontic treatment, it is important to create a fluid-tight seal in the access cavity in order to prevent marginal leakage and the ingress of oral fluids and microorganisms into the root canal. Nevertheless, temporary filling materials have received less attention than materials used for a permanent and prolonged use. However, they are an essential link in the chain that leads to disin...

Static and Dynamic Lateral Loading of Pile Groups

Performance of Bridge Timber Ties under Static and Dynamic Loading

A dramatic increase in railway car axle loads has occurred over the past 50 years. This paper presents the results of an experimental program undertaken at the University of Manitoba to evaluate the structural performance and durability of treated timber bridge ties under different load levels. A portion of a prototype bridge deck, consisting of eight prototype timber ties, was tested under var...

Harmonic Response of Pile Groups to Dynamic Loading

A completely general method of analysis for three-dimensional raked piles under harmonic excitation is discussed. The piles have been represented by a three-dimensional frame structure and the soil has been represented by a boundary element discretization scheme. A computer program has been written which carries out this analysis and produces a group stiffness matrix that can be included as a f...

Analysis of Five Parameter Viscoelastic Model Under Dynamic Loading

The purpose of this paper is to analysis the viscoelastic models under dynamic loading. A five-parameter model is chosen for study exhibits elastic, viscous, and retarded elastic response to shearing stress. The viscoelastic specimen is chosen which closely approximates the actual behavior of a polymer. The module of elasticity and viscosity coefficients are assumed to be space dependent i.e. f...
