Selecting appropriate bonding technique is crucial for strengthening and repairing concrete structures as different bonding techniques have different performances. A state-of–the-art review of different bonding techniques that is epoxy bonding technique, prestressed strengthening technique, unbonded anchored technique/mechanically fastened technique using CFRP is dealt and the corresponding adv...

A direct bonded fixed partial dental prosthesis, with a composite resin denture tooth as a pontic, a tri-n-butylborane initiated adhesive resin, and screw posts for reinforcement, was still functioning after an observation period of 20 years. The prosthesis was found to be reliable for long-term clinical use when chemically and mechanically reinforced.

The accurate and reliable numerical approximation of wave propagation is of fundamental importance to the simulation of acoustic, electromagnetic and elastic phenomena. In mechanical engineering, advanced composites such as carbon fibre reinforced polymer have become one of the most promising materials to build light-weight structures for several fields of application, for instance in aerospace...

Consider a vertex-reinforced jump process defined on a regular tree, where each vertex has exactly b children, with b ≥ 3. We prove the strong law of large numbers and the central limit theorem for the distance of the process from the root. Notice that it is still unknown if vertexreinforced jump process is transient on the binary tree.

Porosity is a result of a deficiency in the production process that could lead into the mechanical degradation of CFRP composite structures. Therefore, some checkpoints for determining its presence during part manufacturing have to be established, verifying that precise threshold values are not exceeded. Currently, porosity characterization is carried out by an indirect way using ultrasonic tec...

Carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) have found wide-ranging applications in numerous industrial fields such as aerospace, automotive, and shipping industries due to their excellent mechanical properties that lead to enhanced functional performance. In this paper, an experimental study on edge trimming of CFRP was done with various cutting conditions and different geometry of tools such as ...

Amitraz is a triazapentadiene, an α2 adrenergic agonist and a member of the amidine chemical family. A limited number of human intoxication cases have been published in the literature. Lack of a clear and specific protocol for the therapy of amitraz intoxication may make its successfully managed case reports useful and valuable for other clinical practitioners in poisoning departments. The case...
