Although dental implants have been successfully used for the rehabilitation of fully edentulous and partially edentulous patients, patient’s various conditions constrict the application of implant, or make dental treatment using dental implants very complex and difficult. Implantsupported cantilever prostheses represent that conditions. Becker and Kaiser insisted that alignment problems, extens...

This paper presents a case study of geotechnical design of bridge foundations and approaches in hilly granite formation in northern New South Wales of Australia. Firstly, the geological formation and existing cut slope conditions which have high risks of rock fall will be described. The bridge has three spans to be constructed using balanced cantilever method with a middle span of 150 m. After ...

Micromechanical cantilevers show great potential as highly sensitive biochemical sensors. Cantilever-based sensing involves the transduction of a biomolecular interaction to a measurable mechanical change in the cantilever resulting from induced surface stresses added mass. In surface stress sensing applications, one side of the cantilever beam is rendered sensitive to a specific target molecul...

S.Z. cantilevers are made using a simple one-mask fabrication process with.characterization of a cantilever-type MEMS chemical sensor for detection of chemicals. MEMS has been with the advancement of cantilever-type sensors.sensor. The mechanical structure is a cantilever, having its own resonant frequency. MEMS cantilevers can be as thin as a few nanometers with lengths.Cantilever-based Sensor...

Home-based point-of-care diagnostic systems have proved to be transformative in the containment of COVID-19 pandemic. They are likely a critical role similar pandemics future. Some developed recent years were used control pandemic and many more such at various stages development evaluation. Appropriate use some technologies has been shown yield desired results through early detection virus. The...

Using microfabrication techniques, it has become possible to make mechanical devices with dimensions in the micro and even in the nano scale domain. Allied to low temperature techniques, these systems have opened a new path in physics with the ultimate goal of reaching the quantum nature of a macroscopic mechanical degree of freedom1. Within this field, materials research plays a significant ro...

The development of strong, tough, and damage-tolerant ceramics requires nano/microstructure design to utilize toughening mechanisms operating at different length scales. The toughening mechanisms so far known are effective in micro-scale, then, they require the crack extension of more than a few micrometers to increase the fracture resistance. Here, we developed a micro-mechanical test method u...

Micromachined thermal multimorph actuators for out-of-plane displacements have been designed and fabricated by Multi-Users MEMS Process (MUMPs) with a post-processing bulk etching step. Micromachined actuators have potential applications in micromanipulation and nanoposition such as manipulation of scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tips, nanopositioner for nano-assembly, micro/nanorobots and ...
