the present work reports and discusses the results of a 3d simulation of the injection molding process of a rubber compound that includes the mold flling stage and  material curing, using the computer code is developed in “udf” part of the fluent 6.3 cae software. the data obtained from a rheometer (mdr 2000) is used to characterize the rubber material in order to fnd the cure model parameters ...

Healthy systems are important for us, but unhealthy systems exist everywhere. Healthy systems behave the manner they are designed, but not the unhealthy ones. It is a meaningful thing for us to turn an unhealthy system into a healthy one. We propose a process algebra with chaos executing policy to specify the behavior of unhealthy systems. For unhealthy systems, we also propose the equivalent r...

background: a few studies have investigated the effect of the activation mode of adhesive systems on bond strength of fi ber posts to root canal dentin. this study investigated the push-out bond strengths of a glass fi ber post to different root canal regions with the use of two adhesives with light- and dual-cure polymerization modes. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 40 maxillary...

BACKGROUND The question of whether symbolically mediated behavior is exclusive to modern humans or shared with anatomically archaic populations such as the Neandertals is hotly debated. At the Grotte du Renne, Arcy-sur-Cure, France, the Châtelperronian levels contain Neandertal remains and large numbers of personal ornaments, decorated bone tools and colorants, but it has been suggested that th...

Nonlinear device behavior is one of the concerns in telecommunications because of the possible information interference and the reduction in effective bandwidth. Measurement systems and black box modeling techniques to characterize and simulate these nonlinear devices would be a valuable tool. This paper explains briefly a prototype of a measurement system for nonlinear RF and microwave devices...
