SUMMARY Life expectancy for haemophilia has increased significantly in many countries. This represents a major success of the improved safety of therapeutic materials to treat haemophilia and of improved quality of care. This improved longevity will generate a population of older individuals with haemophilia with complex medical problems associated with age and managing such clinical issues is ...

Computer graphics is used in a wide variety of familiar applications, ranging from abstract representations of statistical and scientific data to synthetic characters in feature films and games. One important sub-area of computer graphics is the generation of realistic images. A key component in generating realistic images is creating digital models of the appearance attributes of the materials...

CoHErrelation between weldability and improvement in properties is a key issue in materials science research. The objective of this work is to optimize the process parameters viz., aging temperature, aging time, solutionizing time, to enhance the hardness of Al6061 alloy. Hence, the present paper deals with hardness study of Tungsten Inert Gas welded 6061 aluminium alloy after age hardening und...

Despite the ageing population and the subsequent importance of considering older people in design, many designers struggle to do so. In particular, they often lack appropriate materials and tools to help them implement inclusive design in practice. This paper describes work at the Cambridge Engineering Design Centre to address this shortfall, developing resources to motivate and equip designers...

statement of problem: esthetic materials undergo some physical and mechanical changes, during their service in oral cavity. purpose: the aim of this study was the evaluation of the color and opacity stability of ideal makoo (idm) composites and compare it with tetric ceram. material and methods: fifteen disk shaped samples of each material was divided into three groups of five. different aging ...

Using a combination of multi-frequency EPR and NMR spectroscopy and quantum-chemical calculations at the level of Density Functional Theory (DFT), the organization of self-doped PPV oligomers in their solid state is investigated. The analysis of the different spectra shows that the electrochemical procedure used to self-dope these materials produces positive radicals (polarons) in an almost qua...
