Elastic theory of low-dimensional continua and its applications in bio-and nano-structures This review presents the elastic theory of low-dimensional (one-and two-dimensional) continua and its applications in bio-and nano-structures. First, the curve and surface theory, as the geometric representation of the low-dimensional continua , is briefly described through Cartan moving frame method. The...

Nano-composite permanent magnetic material is a new type permanent magnetic material, and it is the synthesis of soft and hard magnetic phase within nanoscale. On the basis of exchange coupling hard magnetizing theory, nano-composite permanent magnetic material can at the same time have high residual magnetization intensity of soft magnetic phase and high coerccivity of hard magnetic phase, and...

Materials and methods: A total of 30 restorations (twelve subjects), 18-38 year olds with class IV carious upper anterior teeth were included, divided into three groups. Each group (n=10 restorations) was randomly restored with the same restoration material type; Beautifil II nano hybrid composite resin (Shofu Dental Corporation, USA), IPS Empress Direct nano hybrid composite resin (Ivoclar Viv...

Average stress during shear bond testing, and deformation behaviour during nano-indentation testing were calculated for the bonding area as a bonding site for copolymerization with resin composite in dentine bonding systems. First average stress was calculated in the bonding area between bovine dentine and composite resin. Secondly, the plastic deformation zone size was calculated using an elas...

a pebax-nano zeolite x mixed matrix membrane was fabricated and operationally characterized using single gas (co2) permeation. x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis was used to study the arrangement of polymer chains of mixed matrix membrane. the membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) to study cross-sectional morphology. the single gas permeability were carried out for ne...

introduction: resin composites are an important part of restorative treatment in modern dentistry. there are many trademarks available in iran market and physico-chemical properties of many of these resin composites are not evaluated yet. this study was carried out to evaluate the physico-chemical properties of four available resin composites and also to assess the effect of aging on their prop...

in the past 30 years, electroless nickel (en) plating has grown to such proportions that these coatingsand their applications are now found underground, in outer space, and in a myriad of areas inbetween. moreover, in order to further improve the mechanical and tribological properties of thenickel-phosphorous (ni-p) coatings, ni-p/ptfe composite coatings can be obtained, which provideseven grea...

in this research, the removal of malachite green dye from textile wastewaters using polyaniline coated onto sawdust (pani/sd) has been investigated. ammonium peroxodisulphate was used as chemical oxidant for polymerization of polyaniline directly on the surface of sawdust. the effects of some important parameters such as ph, initial concentration, sorbent dosage, exposure time and temperature o...

Polymer-clay nano-composite materials, in which nano-meter thick layers of clay dispersed in polymer matrix, have generally higher mechanical properties than normal polymeric materials. A new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. The total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  Numerical r...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM The adhesion of resin-modified glass-ionomer (RMGI) to composite resin has a very important role in the durability of sandwich restorations. Hydroxyapatite is an excellent candidate as a filler material for improving the mechanical properties of glass ionomer cement. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the effect of adding micro- and nano-hydroxyapatite (HA) p...
