Ultra‐High‐Speed Sintering of 3.5Y‐TZP Zirconia: Time Reduction Without Compromising Translucency

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To assess, firstly, the impact of three sintering speeds on translucency and grain size of 3.5Y‐TZP zirconia (Katana HT) across clinically relevant thicknesses, and secondly, the effect of thermocycling on translucency. Materials and Methods Disc specimens were fabricated at six thicknesses (0.7–2.0 mm) and sintered using SLOW (7 h),

IMPACT OF ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOW SYSTEMS ON THE FINANCIAL REDUCTION OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN BUILDINGS

Three Seas Economic Journal
Windows constitute one of the most critical components of the building envelope because they significantly influence heat transfer, solar gains, daylight penetration, and, consequently, the overall energy performance of buildings.

Facilitating Marketization à contrecœur: Why Stakeholders May Continue to Support Organizations that Introduce Market Practices Violating their Values

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on institutional logics provides ample evidence that market logic and its associated practices have spread across fields within capitalist societies – a phenomenon commonly called ‘marketization’. However, logics research has paid little attention to the individual‐level mental processes that facilitate marketization.

Breaking Barriers: Scaffolding Social‐Symbolic Work for Women’s Economic Empowerment

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This study advances the understanding of Women’s Economic Empowerment (WEE) in non‐Western contexts by theorizing how social‐symbolic work facilitates empowerment despite entrenched institutional and cultural constraints. Drawing on a qualitative study into the establishment of Kuwait’s first women’s business incubator, we explore how female ...

Energy Performance And Long-Term Evaluation Of Internal Thermal Comfort Of An Office Building With Different Kinds Of Glazing Systems And Window Sizes [PDF]

, 2012
Although the presence of large window surfaces could be preferable during the heating season when solar gains through the glazed components can overcome heating losses from the same surfaces, during the cooling season more attention has to be paid in ...

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.
