Meshfree Approach for the Torsional Analysis of Orthotropic and FGM Thin-Walled Open Sections [PDF]

Mechanics of Advanced Composite Structures
The torsional study of different engineering sections made up of orthotropic and functionally graded material is presented in this paper. Prandtl’s stress function approach is used for the formulation of governing differential equations.

Migration and Caesarean Section Birth in the United Kingdom: A Secondary Analysis of Born in Bradford Data

Birth, EarlyView.
This secondary analysis of Born in Bradford data provides comparison of caesarean section birth rates (total, elective, and emergency) between migrant populations and UK‐born women. Findings show variations between migrant populations with some experiencing significantly lower, and others significantly higher incidence rates.

Constructing a bivariate distribution function with given marginals and correlation: application to the galaxy luminosity function

, 2010
We show an analytic method to construct a bivariate distribution function (DF) with given marginal distributions and correlation coefficient. We introduce a convenient mathematical tool, called a copula, to connect two DFs with any prescribed dependence ...

Isogeometric Analysis of FGM Plates

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2018
Abstract This work presents an isogeometric formulation for the geometrically nonlinear analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plates. FGM plates are made of a mixture of two components (ceramic and metal) whose volume fractions vary smoothly along the thickness.

Comfort and Usability of Digital Versus Conventional Custom‐Fit Mouthguards: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives The use of mouthguards protects teeth and the supporting tissues against impacts. Digital impressions and 3D‐printed models can reduce manufacturing steps and minimize discomfort. This study evaluated the fit, comfort, and usability of custom‐made mouthguards, obtained by conventional and digital workflow, in amateur ...

Loss of Tooth Structure After Successive Removal of Temporary Restorative Materials by Dental Students Between Endodontic Treatment Sessions: An In Vitro Study

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the loss of tooth structure after the removal of temporary restorative materials between endodontic treatment sessions performed by undergraduate students. Methods Twenty human molar teeth underwent endodontic coronal access and were randomly divided into two groups.
