A New Model of Feeding Biomechanics Based on Tied‐Arch Principles
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This new biomechanical model explains the major stress and strain patterns generated through the cranium during biting. The model proposes that the cranium resolves bite‐induced reaction forces through arcs of compressive stress that span the cranial structure between biting teeth and both jaw joints.

Discuss the Rationale for Minimally Invasive Endodontics and the Merits and Demerits of the Concept
Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) places emphasis on the conservation of sound tooth structure and viable pulp tissue during endodontic procedures such as root canal treatment (RCTx) and vital pulp therapy (VPT). The use of minimal access cavity designs and conservative canal preparation dimensions have been investigated as a way to improve

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract This article attempts to clarify the meaning of (de)politicization. Politicization sometimes refers to the inappropriate intrusion of partisan loyalties in nonpolitical social domains (affective politicization). Politicization can also constitute an ideal of civic agency and energy (contestatory politicization).

In the wake of such purported reform, pundits (theorists and practitioners alike) have typically taken for granted that 21st century approaches to workplace superintendence, birthed in the wake of the Hawthorne Studies and ...
