Background: This study sought to determine the anatomical variations of mental foramen (MF) and mandibular canal (MC) in full edentulous Iranian subpopulation using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). These can have significant clinical implications dental implant surgery. Methods: descriptive cross-sectional evaluated mandible CBCT scans 384 completely patients that required treatment. The w...

statement of problem: t-loop is one of the most popular closing loops in orthodontic profession. however its activation is in the contrary to bouschinger effect theory, since the formed bends would be opened during activation. the purpose of this study was to add a helix in a way to be more respondent to the bouschinger effect theory. objectives: to compare the load deflection, maximal elastic ...

The nicotinic synapse has been a touchstone for advances in neuroscience ever since Jean Nicot, the French ambassador to Portugal, sent some tobacco seeds home to Paris in 1550 with a note that the New World plant had interesting effects when smoked. Now the muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) is a well-studied example of ligand-gated ion channels. After a motor neuron is stimulated...

This paper is has addressed the Single Flexible Link Robot. The dynamical model is derived using Euler-Lagrange equation and then a proper controller is designed to suppress a  vibration based-on Input-Shaping (IS) method. But, IS control method is an open loop strategy. Due to the weakness of open loop control systems, a closed loop IS control system is proposed. The achieved closed loop c...
