Aim: To evaluate the effect of storage media and autoclaving on shear bond strength of composite to enamel. Materials and Methods: 100 human premolars were randomly divided into ten groups of ten as follows: C: freshly extracted teeth. A: Autoclaved freshly extracted teeth. CH-6: 6 month storage in 0.5 % chloramine T. CA-6: 6 month storage in 0.5 % chloramine T + autoclaving. T-6: 6 month stora...

toppling failure is one of the most common modes of failure of rock slopes in layered rock strata. flexural toppling is one of the well-known modes of the failure. this type of failure occurs due to bending stress. in this article, a brief yet comprehensive review of toppling failure is presented. firstly, the conditions and general mechanism of the failure are described. then, experimental, th...

Recently the nonparametric predictive approach to inference for competing risks was introduced [1]. In this paper further results for such inferences are presented, with focus on four important and closely related aspects. First, the effect of defined failure modes which thus far have not yet caused failures is studied. Secondly, the effect of re-defining (groups of) failure modes is considered...

Palm Oil Mill is an industry that processes Fresh Fruit Bunches into Crude Oil. The processing supported by the use of several production machines, one them a sterilizer machine works to boil TBS. Damage can reduce level productivity. To overcome occurrence such damage, it necessary analyze damage occurred. analysis was carried out using Failure Mode and Effect Analysis Caused Diagram approache...
