Effect of Heat-Treatment Time on Bending Properties of Cobolt-Chromium Orthodontic Wires [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Different protocols appear in the literature with respect to heat-treating cobalt-chromium orthodontic wires. The objective was to determine the effect of variable heat-treatment time and method on the bending properties of CoCr wires.

Fatigue Performance and Failure Loads of Composition‐Gradient Multilayer Zirconia: Partial‐Coverage Restorations Versus Single Crowns at Different Thicknesses

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study investigated the influence of restoration type (partial‐coverage versus crown) and ceramic‐layer thickness on the fatigue behavior and failure load of monolithic composition‐gradient multilayer zirconia (4Y‐PSZ/5Y‐PSZ) molar restorations. Material and Methods Seventy‐two CAD/CAM‐fabricated monolithic zirconia restorations (

Near surface mounted thecnique for the flexural and shear strengthening of concrete beams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The efficacies of the Near Surface Mounted and Externally Bonded Reinforcing techniques for the flexural and shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams are compared. Both techniques are based on the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer materials.

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

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

open access: yesJournal 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?

Strengthening Potentials of Lithium‐Doped Soda–Lime–Silicate Glasses Through Surface Crystallization of Quartz‐ss

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Glass Science, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The formation of a crystallized surface layer, having a lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) than the parent glass, can be exploited to place the glass surface under compression during cooling from crystallization temperature and hence improve mechanical properties.

Seismic Enhancement of Masonry‐Infilled Substandard Reinforced Concrete Frames Using Lightweight Steel Exoskeleton

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 603-623, March 2026.
ABSTRACT A significant portion of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures in seismically active regions was constructed prior to the adoption of modern seismic design standards, leaving them highly susceptible to earthquake‐induced damage. The vulnerabilities of these structures, often exacerbated by material degradation, have been starkly ...
