re-establishing a patient’s lost dental esthetic appearance is one of the most important topics for contemporary dentistry. new treatment materials and methods have been coming on the scene, day by day, in order to achieve such an aim. most dentists prefer more conservative and aesthetic approaches, such as direct and indirect laminate veneer restorations, instead of full-ceramic crowns for ant...

Three different laminated composites are used in this study: carbon fiber, woven glass and glass-fiber-reinforced epoxy. The composite laminate structures were fabricated using the hand lay-up technique at room temperature. laminates reinforced with epoxy resin, fibers (CFRP), (GFRP-W), random-orientation (GFRP-R) to obtain eight layers. wear test was performed a pin-on-disc tribometer five loa...

Rehabilitation of lost dental aesthetic is one of the most important concerns for contemporary dentistry. Conservative treatment modality along with aesthetic approaches, such as direct and indirect laminate veneer restorations were the treatment of choice. Laminate veneers are restorations to correct aesthetic deficiencies and discolorations. Direct laminate veneers involve the application of ...

design of bridge deck with long-term strength, durability and permanence is a significant interest for engineers. one applicable solution to this challenge could be via using hybrid system consisting of conventional materials such as concrete and steel with frp plates which is also known as composite deck. since these deck are relatively new so their performance is not completely known. the pre...

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites are widely used in infrastructure applications including water structures due to their relatively high durability, high strength to weight ratio, and non-corrosiveness. Here we demonstrate the potential use of carbon nanoparticles dispersed during GFRP composite fabrication to reduce water absorption of GFRP and to enable monitoring of moisture d...

Abstract This study examines the drilling characteristics on GFRP/Banana fiber composite without and with use of Al 2 O 3 filler used in fabrication. an epoxy-based glass reinforced polymer made banana aluminum oxide powder. hand layup technique employed fabricating Three kinds composites. Pre-test G power for testing was set at 80%, Alpha 0.05%, CL 95%. number samples each group then determine...

Abstract— Due to the superior physical and mechanical properties Glass fiber-reinforced (GFRP) composite materials are very attractive for applications like aerospace and air craft structural components. This results a large number of research papers on machining of these composite laminates. Out of all the machining operations, most commonly used operation is drilling. However, drilling operat...

Glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) is considered as structure support and insulating material for the new superconducting FAIR magnets. GFRP (G11) is a composite material consisting of woven glass fibres (volume fraction ~50 %) and cured polymer resin (e.g. amine-cured epoxy). The material will be exposed to cryogenic temperatures, high radiation levels and dynamic mechanical loads (Lorentzi...
