Digital impressions can be a useful option that reduces patient discomfort and simplifies clinical procedures such as accurate impression recordings. In this report, a patient with a partial maxillectomy was managed with a metal frame fabricated from a digital impression through an intraoral scanner. The final impression employed the altered cast technique for the fabrication of the obturator.

The nucleotide sequence of a 2,146 bp portion of the Anacystis nidulans (Synechococcus PCC6301) genome has been determined. This region contains an open reading frame (ORF) of 392 codons, whose predicted protein sequence shows partial homology to those of E. coli phoM and envZ. Hence ORF392 is suggested to be a sensory kinase gene in cyanobacteria.

let be a locally compact non?abelian group and be a compact subgroup of also let be a ?invariant measure on the homogeneous space . in this article, we extend the linear operator as a bounded surjective linear operator for all ?spaces with . as an application of this extension, we show that each frame for determines a frame for and each frame for arises from a frame in via the linear operator .

Adding steel braces to reinforced concrete frames is a common way for seismic rehabilitation of these structures. Due to ease of installation and the possibility of creating openings in the braced bays, this method of rehabilitation has been more preferred than using shear walls. In this paper, three experimental specimens including a reinforced concrete frame, a reinforced concrete frame with ...

Partial tracking plays an important role in sinusoidal modeling analysis, being the stage in which the model parameters are obtained. This is accomplished by coherently grouping the spectral peaks found in each frame into time-evolving tracks of varying frequency and amplitude. The main difficulties faced by partial tracking algorithms are the analysis of polyphonic signals and the pursuit of t...

A Level I code format is proposed for the buckling design of ring-stiffened cylindrical shells under external pressure. Depth independent partial safety factors to be applied to the resistance (collapse pressures), are proposed for the four relevant collapse modes Unterframe Shell Collapse, Frame Yield, Plate Yield and Frame Tripping), covering design and fabrication factors. A partial safety f...

In multimodal integration and sensorimotor transformation areas of posterior parietal cortex (PPC), neural responses often appear encoded in spatial reference frames that are intermediate to the intrinsic sensory reference frames, e.g., eye-centred for visual or head-centred for auditory stimulation. Many sensory responses in these areas are also modulated by direction of gaze. We demonstrate t...

In multimodal integration and sensorimotor transformation areas of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), neural responses often appear encoded in spatial reference frames that are intermediate to the intrinsic sensory reference frames, for example, eye-centered for visual or head-centered for auditory stimulation. Many sensory responses in these areas are also modulated by direction of gaze. We ...

the combination of flexural frame and shear wall is one of the suitable systems to apply in reinforced concrete buildings. the deflections of flexural frame become limited due to the high stiffness of wall and the interaction of these systems. tall buildings even higher than fifty stories can be designed by using frame- wall systems. with respect to special behavior of flexural frame or shear w...

The first part of the paper proposes a formal foundation of a theory of frames. Frames are embedded into a general ontology. On this background, we introduce a formal model-theoretic semantics for frames and thereby an interface to formal semantics. The model-theoretic semantics allows us to define central notions of frame theory such as the “satisfaction type” for a node in a given frame, and ...
