The influence of mineral substrate composition and structure on bacterial calcium carbonate productivity and polymorph selection was studied. Bacterial calcium carbonate precipitation occurred on calcitic (Iceland spar single crystals, marble, and porous limestone) and silicate (glass coverslips, porous sintered glass, and quartz sandstone) substrates following culturing in liquid medium (M-3P)...

The primary objective of this in vitro study was to compare the absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD) of CAD/CAM produced Procera AllCeram crown copings, fabricated on die stone master models of two different tooth groups, incisor and molar. Two maxillary central incisors and two first molars typodont teeth were prepared with 0.8 mm of circumferential chamfer, duplicated 9 times to obtain 36 die ...

Concrete is part of a construction formed by mixture cement, water, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate either crushed stone or gravel and other mixed materials. Fiber concrete whose method manufacture added with fiber, both man-made fiber natural such as palm fruit bunches. The addition bunches to the mix ​​expected increase compressive strength concrete. percentage marks 6%, 8% 11% weight cement...

Ferrocement or Ferro-concrete is a system of reinforced mortar or plaster applied over layers of metal. It consists of closely spaced, multiple layers of mesh or fine rods completely embedded in cement mortar. It has a wide range of uses including sculpture and prefabricated building components. Ferro concrete is relatively a new material and has good strength and resistance to impact. When use...

in this research the effect of randomly reinforced soil and soil cement with different percent of cement and fiber and different length of fiber was investigated. samples were prepared according to the maximum dry unit weight and optimum water content due to the corresponding compaction curves. compressive and tensile strength were conducted on samples for different curing times. regression equ...

conclusions when evaluating flank pain in patients, it is important to remember that cbc parameters may support urinary stone disease, and considering cbc results may be useful in the diagnosis of urinary stone disease. patients and methods this study was a retrospective observational study of 3,099 patients who were admitted to the urology outpatient clinic or diagnosed with urinary stone dise...

The present paper investigates the influence of stabilization with cement, peat ash, and silica sand on permeability coefficient (kv) of compacted clay, using a novel approach to stabilize the clay with peat ash as a supplementary material of cement in the compacted and stabilized soil. In order to assess the mentioned influence, test specimens of both untreated and stabilized soil have been te...
