There is an increasing demand for engineered wood products in modern structures. Birch plywood promising structural applications, due to the combined advantages of its superior mechanical properties and cross lamination configuration. However, off-axis birch have not been thoroughly investigated. The aim this paper establish a comprehensive experimental dataset that could serve as input analyti...

This paper focuses on numerical the prediction of multiaxial static strength lattice structures. We analyze a body-centered cubic cell printed with Selective Laser Melting in AlSi10Mg aluminum alloy. Parent material is experimentally characterized, and Gurson-Tveergard-Needleman (GTN) damage model calibrated to predict failure simulations. The GTN used structures exhibiting brittle localized fr...

rituximab or other immunosuppressive treatments should be prescribed cautiously; the possibility for rare complications should be recognized. Because of massive ablation of humoral immunity, the relationship between rituximab and virus infection has been addressed, including varicella–zoster infection, parvovirus B19 infection, and CMV reactivation (7). In immunocompromised patients, rituximab ...

Delamination damage is a characteristic which observed in composite laminates. can be very disastrous, hence delamination analysis for any CFRP structure necessary. In this paper epoxy carbon woven (230 GPa) Prepreg laminates was used as the adherend and FM-300K adhesive to form lap shear joint. The model created using ANSYS ACP of done 3D non-linear finite element method. Longitudinal buckling...

PURPOSE There is much controversy about the minimum number of implants and maximum cantilever length in mandible prosthetic restoration. Finite elements analysis of three and four implant-supported prostheses was performed to determine the stresses in the superstructure, implants and cortical bone and, therefore, the failure prediction for each restoration. METHODS An edentulous mandible was ...
