objectives: this study sought to assess the effects of length and inclination of implants on stress distribution in an implant and terminal abutment teeth in an implant assisted-removable partial denture (rpd) using three-dimensional (3d) finite element analysis (fea).   materials and methods: in this in vitro study, a 3d finite element model of a partially dentate mandible with a distal extens...

In line with technological developments, many studies have led to the factors that consider hull shape planning. Therefore, innovations in form planning are primary basis for obtaining a is considered efficient reducing ship resistance and fuel consumption. This study aims modify design of monohull transform it into catamaran while maintaining total length Displacement ratio. The model used Mon...

The aim of the present study was to establish the Tweed's norms for Nepalese people, compare the values between the Nepalese male and female samples as well as to compare with the Caucasians. One hundred lateral cephalogram was taken by the same x- ray technician and later traced by manually and all three angular parameters Frankfort Mandibular plane Angle (FMA), Frankfort Mandibular Incisal An...

The multiangular and off-track pointing capabilities of CHRIS/PROBA introduce a strong distortion on the geometry on the resulting images. In order to make full scientific use of the data some information about the geometry of acquisition is needed. In particular, the viewing azimuth and zenith angles must be known, and the images must be geometrically corrected to make possible multi-angular a...

This open-access collection of 11 selected articles covers a small but quite diverse and interesting part of the much wider range of scientific topics presented at the 16th International Conference on Small-Angle Scattering (SAS2015) in Berlin. The topics contained here describe the particular directions in which small-angle scattering is developing at the current moment and which will become i...

Small-angle scattering (SAS) technique is applied to study the nano and microstructural properties of spatial patterns generated from chaos game representation (CGR). Using a simplified version of Debye formula, we calculate and analyze in momentum space, the monodisperse scattering structure factor from a system of randomly oriented and non-interacting 2D Sierpinski gaskets (SG). We show that ...

We present a previously unreported series of five cases of acute angle closure glaucoma associated with watching the Australia soap opera "Neighbours". Two cases were bilateral and associated with watching two episodes of "Neighbours" on the same day. The pathogenesis, and possible role of watching soap operas in the causation of primary angle closure glaucoma is discussed.

For orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning there are various ways to assess the jaw discrepencies. Using parameters such as ANB, Wit’s appraisal, Beta, Yen, W angles, with some limitations. To overcome these, MKG angle Tau were proposed.
 Aim objective: The present study assesses predictability of its correlation previous parameter. Materials methods: A total 105 lateral cephalograms...
