Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural and Dielectrical Properties of Sterilized Human TeethMostafa Fawzy Eissa, Hassan Mohamed El-Shamy, Hassan Saad HanafyProblem statement: This study investigated the changes in crystallinity and dielectrical properties (conductivity) that could be demonstrated in extracted human teeth (enamel and dentin) subjected to γ-radiation at the sterilization dose (25 kGy). Approach: Twenty human third molar teeth were used in the study. Teeth were prepared so forty enamel and dentin samples were obtained. The samples were divided into … …Physics International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2012 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Selected Properties of Starchy Vegetables on Grating and Slicing Production RateLok Chung Yee, M.K. Siti Mazlina, B.T. Hang TuahPrediction on the output of grating and slicing of starchy vegetables are important prior to design or develop the particular food plant. The production rate of grating and slicing products could be affected by the properties of starchy vegetables. In this study, two selected properties which hardness and moisture content are studied. Hardness of selected starchy vegetables was measured using … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2012 · 7,666 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdhesion and Hardness Evaluation of Modified Silicone-Dammar as Natural Coating MaterialsR. Zakaria, A. H. AhmadProblem statement: Dammar is a natural resin that used anciently in varnish production. The use of dammar natural resin in coating is limited by undesirable properties for application in coating where it is considered very brittle. Due to dammar's brittle nature, an aged dammar coating can be easily scratched or abraded. Approach: Dammar natural resin could be modified into Silicone-Dammar … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 20 Mar 2012 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Sintering Temperature Effect on the Shrinkage Behavior of Cobalt Chromium AlloyM. Ghazali Kamardan, N. Hidayah A. Zaidi, M. Noh Dalimin et al.Problem Statement: Co-Cr based alloys which is well known for its high Young’s modulus, fatigue strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance is an important metallic bio-material. However, till date there are only two type of Co-Cr alloy which are the castable and wrought cobalt alloy. Powder Metallurgy route for cobalt is expected to give better result of Co-Cr alloy. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Polypropylene Fibers on the California Bearing Ratio of Air Cured Stabilized Tropical Peat SoilBehzad Kalantari, Bujang B.K. Huat, Arun PrasadProblem statement: Peat soil is well known to deform and fail under a light surcharge load and is characterized with low shear strength, high compressibility and high water content. With the rising demand from the construction industry, utilization of these soils is required and suitable technique needs to be found out for stabilizing them. Approach: Model study had been carried … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANN Based Prediction of Effect of Reinforcements on Abrasive Wear Loss and Hardness in a Hybrid MMCP. Sathyabalan, V. Selladurai, P. SakthivelProblem statement: The reinforcements added to an alloy lead to variation in properties. The content and size of the reinforcement influences the properties of composites. Very little research has been carried out in hybrid composites. Work on hybrid LM6 aluminium alloy metal matrix composites (MMC) with flyash and SiC has been initiated here. The effect of the four parameters, size … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Carcass Weight and Muscle on Texture, Structure, Rheological Properties and Myofibre Characteristics of Roe DeerJoanna Żochowska-Kujawska, Kazimierz Lachowicz, Małgorzata Sobczak, Leszek GajowieckiMyofibre characteristic, texture, structure and rheological properties of selected muscles (BF, SM and L) of roe deer of different carcass weight were compared. Muscle texture and rheological properties was determined with the TPA and relaxation test, respectively, performed with a Instron 1140 device. Fibre type percentage and structural elements (muscle fibre cross sectional area and perimysium thickness) were measured in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiamond Pressing on the Wear Resistance and the State of Heat Treated Alloy Steel SurfacesUbeidulla Al-QawabehaIn manufacturing processes, surfaces and their properties are as important as the bulk properties of the materials. Surface treatment is an important aspect of all manufacturing processes. It has been used to impart certain physical and mechanical properties, such as appearance, corrosion, friction, wear and fatigue resistance. Widely used methods of finishing treatment that create necessary parts with the given … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Curing Light Type and Staining Medium on the Discoloring Stability of Dental Restorative CompositeJamaluddin Syed, Ayman Al. Dharrab, Muhammad S. Zafa et al.Discoloration kinetics of 4 commercial nano-filled resin composites polymerized with LED and QTH source types in 4 different staining media held at 37°C are investigated. Quartz Tungsten Halogen (QTH) and Light Emitting Diode (LED) were used. Dental composites color change was monitored with a digital spectrophotometer at one, two and four weeks for quantitative comparison. The kinetics and intensities of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ADVERSE EFFECT OF STEEL PARTICLE CONTAMINANTS ON FATIGUE LIFE OF GREASE LUBRICATED BALL BEARINGSA. Stathis, Th. Costopoulos, D. Koulocheris, K. RaptisThe rating life of ball bearings is reduced when hard particle contaminants are present in the lubricant. Usually, this life reduction is taken into account in the calculation of modified rating life by using the contamination factor through a general characterization of the lubrication conditions. However, the impact of contaminant’s variables such as size, hardness and concentration level has to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2014 · 6,991 accessesView PDFCite
