In the fixed prosthesis process dental treatment, dentist needs to conceive morphology of tooth preparation and make numerous micro-adjustments by manual operation. This study aims establish a digital design system for accurate designing veneer trajectory planning robot-assisted preparation. According standard operation requirements, projection line segmentation method based on point drawing is...

Many important decisions in the design process are made fairly early on, after designers have presented initial concepts. In many domains, these concepts are now realized as 3D digital models and, in meetings, the stakeholders evaluate these potential solutions. Frequently, the participants in such a meeting want to interactively modify the proposed designs to explore the design space better. T...

Product differentiation, customization, and just-in-time logistics require a new approach to manufacturing. Production lines have to be flexible, and therefore machine setup times must be short, to be able to handle small batch sizes efficiently and economically. In addition, ever higher quality standards and ever increasing international competition impose higher accuracy, speed, and reliabili...

. In our previous work, we have defined a model-driven design approach based on the organization of models of a distributed application according to different levels of platform-independence. In our approach, the design process is structured into a preparation and an execution phase. In the preparation phase, (abstract) platforms and transformation specifications are defined. These results are ...

This Technical Guidance Note should not be reported as representing the views of the IMF. The views expressed in this Note are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent those of the IMF or IMF policy.  What is a conceptual design for a GFMIS, and why is it critical to the success of a GFMIS project?  What are the key factors that influence the preparation of the conceptual desig...

Strong digitalization and shifting from unidirectional to bidirectional topology have transformed the electrical grid into a cyber-physical energy system, i.e. smart grid, with strong interdependency among various domains. It is mandatory to develop a comprehensive and holistic validation approach for such large scale system. However, a single research infrastructure may not have sufficient exp...

One of the most significant issues in pharmaceutical industries, prior to commercializationof a pharmaceutical preparation is the “preformulation” stage. However, far too attention hasbeen paid to verification of the software assisted statistical designs in preformulation studies.The main aim of this study was to report a step by step preformulation approach for a semisolidpreparation based on ...

AIM A porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) veneer crown restoration is considered successful when biological, mechanical, and esthetical concerns are satisfied. Restorations with poor marginal integrity may contribute to the cause of severe caries and periodontal defects. The most important factor in achieving successful marginal integrity is preparation design. Although a sloping shoulder preparatio...

The differential selection and application of retention and resistance form in tooth preparation depend upon the individual clinical situation. Since the ‘‘textbook ideal’’ is not often encountered clinically, knowledge of basic principles and factors is mandatory for the successful preparation of extracoronal restorations. Black astutely recognized and stressed the importance of these two basi...
