Abstract We use three-dimensional (3-D) dynamic finite-element models to investigate potential rupture paths of earthquakes propagating along faults through the western San Gorgonio Pass, a structurally complex region Andreas fault system in southern California (USA). focus on right-lateral Bernardino strand system, oblique thrust–right-lateral Pass zone, and portion Garnet Hill system. 3-D met...

Abstract Background: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate stress distributions zirconia or titanium connecting screws under different loads (vertical and oblique) in bruxism patients indicate its applicability by comparing with physiological limit values.. Methods: Four models were created which implants same size design, dental implant, abutment connection made Ti (only screw). 3D-...

Background: In 1991, Wright described a superior oblique expander procedure for browns syndrome and superior overaction with good results. Originally, this procedure has been performed with silicone band expander. The aim of this study was to report the results of treatment of a series of patients with A-pattern strabismus associated with overacting superior oblique muscle using the fascia lata...

Objective: The study was designed to evaluate and compare stress distribution intrans cortical section of bone with titanium implant zirconia model under vertical oblique forces in anterior maxillary region. Materials Methods: A three‑dimensional finite element using ANSYS 13.0 software. Around the prepared implant, constructed definitive differentiation outer inner cancellous. Two straight abu...

Two fundamental characteristics of the low-Reynolds-number cylinder wake, which have involved considerable debate, are first the existence of discontinuities in the Strouhal-Reynolds number relationship, and secondly the phenomenon of oblique vortex shedding. The present paper shows that both of these characteristics of the wake are directly related to each other, and that both are influenced b...

The present investigation used numerical simulations to study the vibrations of a wind turbine blade in standstill. Such are presumed affect horizontal axis designs and can jeopardize structural integrity machine. applied methods relied on fluid–structure interaction (FSI) approach, coupling computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver with multibody finite-element solver. A 96-m-long was studied ...
