The Futuro house was designed in 1968 by the Finnish architect Matti Suuronen. Its prototype, no. 000, currently collection of Museum Boijmans van Beuningen Rotterdam, underwent a major conservation treatment at time its acquisition decade ago. construction, architectural details and surface fiberglass reinforced polyester (GRP) elements had suffered from transport handling during many assembli...

Fiberglass is an alloy or a mixture of several chemicals (composite materials) that react and harden within certain time. This material has advantages over metal materials, including: lighter, easier to shape, cheaper. Based on the static tensile test, average strength three-layer composite reinforced with woven, random, talc glass fiber in three test specimens was 50.7970 MPa for composition 1...

Glass fiber reinforced Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) have a complex set of properties - high specific strength and hardness, good corrosion chemical resistance, most all low relative weight, making them the preferred material over metallic materials in number industries (aircraft, boat building, renewable energy facilities many others). The main aim present work was reduced to obtaining PMCs...

Biomaterial properties and controlled architecture of scaffolds are essential features to provide an adequate biological and mechanical support for tissue regeneration, mimicking the ingrowth tissues. In this study, a bioextrusion system was used to produce 3D biodegradable scaffolds with controlled architecture, comprising three types of constructs: (i) poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) matrix as ref...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the adaptation of fiber reinforced composite post system and cast post-and-core. METHODS 17 extracted human permanent maxillary central incisors were endodontically treated following the standard protocol. 17 fiber reinforced composite post had been fabricated and adapted to the prepared parallel root canals. A light body poly vinyl siloxane...

OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of reinforced calcium phosphate cement augmentation of the femoral neck defect created after dynamic hip screw removal in a cadaveric model. METHODS The lag screws of dynamic hip screw implants were inserted and subsequently removed in 8 matched pairs of cadaveric, osteoporotic femurs to create a femoral neck defect. One of each pair had the defect augmented ...

In recent years, most boat fabrication companies use 100% synthetic fiber-reinforced composite materials, due to their high performance of mechanical properties. the new trend research on structure using natural fiber hybrid with kevlar/fiberglass-reinforced composite, result tensile, bending, and impact strength showed that glass polyester gave increasing contents. At some point, realizing cos...
