conclusions the castings fabricated from the ringless technique with non-precious alloy are acceptable. this investing system is useable for the fabrication of fixed restorations. results after statistical evaluation, the following results were obtained: the mean vertical margin discrepancy for conventional investing was 156.72 ± 64.67µ; for the ringless technique it was 117.3 ± 26.77µ; and for...

this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...

To investigate how the visual system integrates disparity information from horizontal and vertical edges and conveys it to the regions without any depth cues, we introduce a new phenomenon of subjective surface formation in an Ehrenstein-style configuration with inducing elements at different depths, and without explicit monocular occlusion zones. Different sets of experiments by separate group...

to assess seismic hazard, it is essential to estimate the potential seismicity, particularly estimation of size of the largest earthquake that can be identified by a distinct fault or earthquake source. one of the methods applied to estimate magnitude of earthquake is use of empirical relationships between magnitude and fault parameters. fault parameters for the earthquakes from early instrumen...

Project managers normally are facing with difficulties behind management of project cash flow, which requires distinguished methods and appropriate tools to manage negative cash flows. Cash-Flow-at-Risk (CFaR) model is an efficient approach to predict cash flow trend. In this study, all risk factors affecting project management environment have incorporated to predict an accurate project cash f...

Centrifugal casting plays a key role in manufacturing processes. In this process, the flow of molten metal particular, significant defining quality final cast tube. The current study is an experimental work that focuses on effect fluid speeds product. was conducted using vertical centrifugal with tin as primary raw material. It observed from for given conditions, speed 1050 rpm produced sound c...

Bioconvection emerges in a dense suspension of swimming protists as a consequence of their negative-gravitactic upward migration and later settling as a blob of density greater than that of water. Thus, gravity is an important parameter governing bioconvective pattern formation. However, inconsistencies are found in previous studies dealing with the response of bioconvection patterns to increas...

Introduction: Marginal adaptation is the most critical item in long-term prognosis of single crowns. This study aimed to assess the marginal quality as well asthe discrepancies in marginal integrity of some PFM single crowns of posterior teeth by employing parallel radiography in Shiraz Dental School, Shiraz, Iran. Methods: In this descriptive study, parallel radiographies were taken from 200 f...
