in forging design the significant parameters are maximum load or energy which are required for the selection of forging press or hammer. these two parameters are varied by the other paramelers such as the geometry of die cavity, flash dimensions, shape of the work piece, friction, mechanical properties of the metal to be forged, temperature, strain rate, and number of the forging operation. the...

Fixture design is crucial part of manufacturing process. Fixture design is a critical design activity process, in which automation plays an integral role in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD). This paper presents a literature review in computer aided fixture design (CAFD) in terms of automation and optimization techniques over the past decades. First, the...

this paper presents a control model of the hydroforming and the dual hydroforming process of atube. the theoretical part includes calculations to measure the change in tube thickness through thedeveloped process. the hydroforming and the dual hydroforming processes are simulated in thesolidsimulation software and the static and the dynamic simulations are modeled. theobtained results for the t-...

background: antifungal drug resistance and few numbers of available drugs limit therapeutic options against fungal infections. the present study was designed to discover new antifungal drugs.   m aterials and methods: this study was carried out in two separate steps, that is, in silico lead identification and in vitro assaying of antifungal potential. a structural data file of a ternary complex...

objectives : marginal adaptation is important for long-term success of full-coverage restorations. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of porcelain firing cycle and different thicknesses of ips e.max core on marginal accuracy of all-ceramic restorations. materials and methods : a standard stainless steel die with 0.8 mm classic chamfer finish line and 10° taper was used in this in...

during dental education, dental students learn how to examine patients, make diagnosis, plan treatment and perform dental procedures perfectly and efficiently. however, progresses in computer-based technologies including virtual reality (vr) simulators, augmented reality (ar) and computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (cad/cam) systems have resulted in new modalities for instruction...

Computer aided design and computer aided modeling tools are becoming increasingly important in the design and performance evaluation of communication systems. In this work, we report on the computer simulation modeling study of terrestrial digital microwave radio transmission, using Block Oriented System Simulator package (BOSS). The work concentrates on semi-analytical error rate evaluation in...

objectives : the purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the marginal adaptation and fracture resistance of a zirconia-based all-ceramic restoration with two preparation designs. materials and methods: twenty-four mandibular premolars were randomly divided into two groups (n=12); the conventional group received a peripheral shoulder preparation and the modified group received a buccal sho...
