Local risk‐minimization with longevity bonds
Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry, 2014AbstractThis paper studies the criterion of local risk‐minimization for life insurance contracts in a financial market, which includes longevity bonds. The longevity bond is a bond specifying payments, which are linked to the current number of survivors in a given portfolio of insured lives.

HEDGING MORTALITY CLAIMS WITH LONGEVITY BONDS
ASTIN Bulletin, 2013AbstractWe study mean–variance hedging of a pure endowment, a term insurance and general annuities by trading in a longevity bond with continuous rate payments proportional to the survival probability. In particular, we discuss the introduction of a gratification annuity as an interesting insurance product for the life insurance market.

Composite Resin Compatibility and Bond Longevity of a Dentin Bonding Agent
Journal of Dental Research, 1985The shear strength of a commercial dentin bonding agent was studied using human dentin in vitro. The agent was tested for compatibility with three proprietary composite resins. In addition, some samples were subjected to prolonged water immersion and thermocycling to determine effects on bond strength.

Pricing Longevity Bonds Under the Uncertainty Theory Framework

First, we describe the life expectancy by a canonical uncertain process and illustrate the dynamic of short interest rate via an uncertain Vasicek interest rate model.

LONGEVITY OF RESIN BONDS TO DENTIN
Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, 2009Much contemporary esthetic and restorative dentistry relies on bonding of resin‐based materials to tooth structure. Adhesion of resin materials to enamel has proved to be extremely strong and reliable since the concept was first introduced by Buonocore in 1955 and widely accepted by clinicians 20–25 years later.

In Vitro Longevity of Bonding Properties of Universal Adhesives to Dentin
Operative Dentistry, 2015SUMMARY Purpose To evaluate the immediate and 6-month resin-dentin bond strength (μTBS) and nanoleakage (NL) of universal adhesives that contain or do not contain methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) and are used in the etch-and-rinse and self-etch strategies.

Clinical longevity of resin‐bonded bridges bonded using a vinyl‐thiol primer
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 2003summary The purpose of this study is to clinically confirm the adhesive effect of a vinyl‐thiol primer (V‐Primer) for precious alloys. Further, we examined the failure of resin‐bonded bridges (RBBs) in order to improve the clinical longevity of RBBs, and to analyse the causes of failure. Twenty‐six RBBs were bonded with V‐primer and Super Bond C &
