Two line gratings abutting each other with a phase shift of half a cycle elicit the perception of an illusory line running orthogonally between the two sets of grating lines. We found that rating strength increases with increasing number of lines, line length, and phase angle.

The initial cost of a bridge project determined using an estimation model depends on the dimensions, types, and materials but only a few studies have included bridge location as a determinant variable. The inclusion of the location is, however, important

Grain boundary triple junctions are an essential ingredient of the microstructure of polycrystalline materials. In this study, a triple junction is observed using atomic‐resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy and characterized. Computer simulations reveal that the junction has a dislocation character that is determined by the joining ...

We proposed a method based on the piezoelectric effect and fabricated an implant abutment on the basis of piezoelectric ceramic. Under physiological occlusal pressure, the oral motion‐powered smart dental implant abutments interacted with water and oxygen, promoting the formation of reactive oxygen species and achieving a synergistic and highly ...

The iPRF‐MA/Alg‐NHS/Lut@EGCG (PGAE) double‐network hydrogel achieves durable wet adhesion in the oral environment. It simultaneously reprograms neutrophils from NETosis to phagocytosis for biofilm clearance, and activates the FAK‐RhoA‐YAP mechanotransduction pathway in gingival fibroblasts to drive extracellular matrix remodeling, thereby promoting ...

Safety Evaluation of Arch Dam Subjected to Underwater Contact Explosion
The stability of an arch dam can be significantly damaged by an extreme underwater explosion. This study proposed a damage index for assessing the degree of local damage of an arch dam after the dam was subjected to an underwater explosion.

Modified Titanium Dental Implants: The Current Progress of Soft‐Tissue Integration Methods
Dental implants are an established solution for tooth loss, yet achieving soft tissue integration (STI) around the transmucosal region remains a challenge. The natural tooth–gingiva interface is poorly replicated on titanium implants. This review explores surface modification strategies, ranging from surface chemistry and topography to biological ...
