Mixed‐Mode Stress Intensity Factor Evaluation via Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Including Non‐Adiabatic Correction

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Characterization of the crack tip, such as the stress intensity factor (SIF), is a vital step for the assessment of fatigue crack growth and prediction of potential failure in engineering structures. This study investigates the use of thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA) for SIF evaluation, including a methodology for non‐adiabatic stress field

Translucency of 3D‐Printed 3Y‐ and 5Y‐Doped Zirconia

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate and compare the translucency of 3D‐printed zirconia materials: 3Y tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y‐TZP) and 5Y partially stabilized zirconia (5Y‐PSZ). Material and Methods 3D‐printed 5Y‐PSZ and 3Y‐TZP materials fabricated using digital light processing (DLP) were investigated.

Effects of Substructure Color and Restoration Thickness on the Final Color of Ultra‐Translucent Zirconia Ceramics

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effects of substructure color and restoration thickness on the final color of shade‐gradient ultra‐translucent zirconia ceramics. Material and Methods A total of 180 flat‐shaped ultra‐translucent zirconia specimens (5Y‐PSZ) with thicknesses of 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8 mm (n = 60) were fabricated and

Scratching beneath the surface: Quantification of muscle architecture and myosin heavy chain content in the forelimbs of black‐tailed prairie dogs (Cynomys, Rodentia)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

Effect of sintering cycle on the strength and translucency of multilayered zirconia

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A newly introduced sintering protocol promises to offer higher translucency while not significantly compromising the flexural strength of the material. However, the effect of the novel sintering protocol has not been thoroughly validated.

Effects of gastric acid on surface roughness, microhardness, fracture strength, and color change of dental ceramics: A systematic review of in vitro studies

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This systematic review evaluated the effects of simulated gastric acid (SGA) on surface and mechanical properties of dental ceramics to answer the research question: Does immersion in SGA alter the surface roughness, microhardness, fracture strength, and color of dental ceramics?

Pressed lithium disilicate glass ceramics: Microstructural characterization, in vitro and in silico nonlinear dynamic analysis for biaxial flexural strength

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the mechanical properties of lithium disilicates, and to assess the predictive capability of in silico models for biaxial flexural strength (BFS). Materials and Methods Specimens of four heat‐pressed lithium disilicates (IPS e.max Press, Rosetta SP, LiSi Press, Vintage Prime Press) were obtained.

Insights from electromechanical simulations to assess omecamtiv mecarbil efficacy in heart failure

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Impact of Omecamtiv Mecarbil (OM) on in‐silico models of heart failure. A mathematical electromechanical model of human ventricular tissue is used to simulate the effects of OM in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
