Controversy in TMD: putting the issues in perspective.
نویسنده
چکیده
Experts have long disagreed over management and measurement of temporomandibular disorders. This article applies critical reasoning to evaluate the different models for dealing with TMD's. Differences over definitions, research methodology and paradigmatic concepts are discussed. Huge deficiencies in the psychosocial model are identified. Validity construct utilizing objective measurement of biological phenomena is presented as a more logical approach.

متن کاملEffect of Centric, Assisted Non-Working, and Unassisted Non-Working Interferences on Temporomandibular Disorders
Background and Aim: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a multifactorial problem caused by many reasons. There is still controversy about the effect of different types of occlusal disorder on TMD. This study was designed to determine the effects of centric and assisted and unassisted non-working interferences on TMD. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 100 dental students, in...

متن کاملOPTIMIZATION CRITERIA FOR DESIGN OF TUNED MASS DAMPERS INCLUDING SOIL–STRUCTURE INTERACTION EFFECT
Many researches have focused on the optimal design of tuned mass damper (TMD) system without the effect of soil–structure interaction (SSI), so that ignoring the effect of SSI may lead to an undesirable and unrealistic design of TMD. Furthermore, many optimization criteria have been proposed for the optinal design of the TMD system. Hence, the main aim of this study is to compare different opti...

Since there is no closed-form formula for designing TMD (Tuned Mass Damper) for nonlinear structures, some researchers have proposed numerical optimization procedures such as a genetic algorithm to obtain the optimal values of TMD parameters for nonlinear structures. These methods are based on determining the optimal values of TMD parameters to minimize the maximum response (e.g. inter story dr...
