Group 2: The significance of modulus of elasticity and fracture toughness for resin composites Kelly Griffith, Lance Gunter, Joshua Haentges, Erik Hageman, Zohra Hasham, Nellab Hashimi Modulus of elasticity is defined as the comparative stiffness of a material. A stiffer material will have a higher elastic modulus. Fracture toughness is the amount of stress required to propagate a preexisting flaw. It describes resistance of a material with a pre-existing flaw to fail. These two properties will
The pioneers that traveled west from the east coast experienced so many hardships that today it has become hard to even imagine them. Willa Cather is an amazing author because through her stories readers can begin to imagine what it was truly like when pioneers had to go west and survive purely off of the labor of their own two lands. When she wrote A Wagner Matinee many Nebraskans felt that she was poorly portraying their way of life, and really what she was trying to do was highlight their strength
dormant sensibilities. Geologic form was unearthed before me in this manner several years ago during a visit to the Museo de Arte Abstracto Español in Cuenca, Spain.

i. Car Body Car bodies are usually made of steel or aluminium. They both have different properties and prices ranges that make it ideal. Aluminium has a lower density meaning the car will be lighter than if it was made from steel. It also doesn’t corrode easily so a car made of aluminium will last longer than that made from steel as the steel contains iron which will corrode. In saying this aluminium is much more expensive, and although it has better properties is may take the price of the car up
to slow the train over a long distance, to ensure that the speed is under the control. In stop braking condition, thermal fatigue cracks will initiate and propagate while under the drag braking condition, an extreme thermal input occurs which can fracture the wheel. When the brakes are applied for long periods of time, it will cause the heating of the thread and rim of the wheel, generated by frictional forces. Observation of the railway wheel has been made based on the wheels in Keretapi Tanah Melayu

Nasal Fracture A nasal fracture is a break or crack in the bones or cartilage of the nose. Minor breaks do not require treatment. These breaks usually heal on their own in about a month. Serious breaks may require surgery. CAUSES This condition is usually caused by a blunt injury to the nose. This type of injury often occurs from: • Contact sports. • Car accidents. • Falls. • Getting punched. SYMPTOMS Symptoms of this condition include: • Pain. • Swelling of the nose. • Bleeding
Introduction Healthcare is under scrutiny to find cost reductions or cost containment. Available healthcare dollars are diminishing with an increased aging population and costs continually on the rise there is a need for healthcare institutions to become more accountable in how the dollars are spent. Canadian healthcare is 11.2% of gross domestic product in 2013 (Information, 2013)Pressure exists to maintain current service levels with decreasing budget dollars year after year. Healthcare institutions
It is appreciated that the given case study contains other factors such as psychological trauma and the impact of blood loss. However this essay is going to explore the efficacy of pre hospital immobilisation utilising cervical collars and extrication/ orthopaedic stretchers, reflecting on an account from the paramedic’s practice. A modified framework of Gibbs Reflective cycle (1988) will be used. Including Description, Feelings, Evaluation, Conclusion and Action Plan. This essay is supported throughout
Effects it has on Everyday Life Jessica Taylor Histology- Dr. Lipka William Carey University Abstract: Osteoporosis is a bone disorder that occurs in people with poor bone density. This disorder can cause secondary illnesses such a fragility fractures. There are many risk factors that can cause osteoporosis, and there are preventative measures that can be used in prolonging a person’s chances of developing osteoporosis in later adulthood life. Diagnosis is easily achievable. Osteoporosis
Definition: It is the condition in which no teeth is present in the oral cavity. It is not limited only on old patients, but also it can occur due to repeated extraction of teeth due to dental caries, or periodontal diseases. Moreover, the rates of edentulism increases as age increases, and in communities where they suffer from loss of education. Sequelae (Consequences) of complete Edentulism: I) Consequences on the Bony Structure: Fig:1: Bone loss in the edentulous area Normally, teeth stimulate
types of bone fractures, but still can be classified roughly by the force directions and causes. Transverse fracture: a fracture at a right angle to the bone's axis. Oblique fracture: a fracture in which the break has a curved or Comminuted frac- ture in which the bone fragments into several pieces. Spiral fracture: a fracture in a spiral shape when the bone is twisted. Impacted fracture: fractures whose ends are driven into each other, also known as a buckle fracture. The fractures are also closely
A Journey With an Unexpected Ending - Original Writing It was a bright and early morning when the blazing hot sun shone through the window and woke Briony up, as she came round from her long and dreamy sleep. All she wanted was five more minutes but she knew that she had to get up. As she arose from her bed on this hot and sunny in the Algarve she looked at her watch and realised she had not given herself nearly enough time. She stripped down and jumped down into the shower. As the lukewarm
incidence and epidemiological causes of maxillofacial trauma and facial fractures varies widely between different regions of the world due to social, economical, cultural consequences, awareness of traffic regulations and alcohol consumption. Reports from distinct regions in Turkey also have different etiological findings.[1, 2] According to the reports from developed countries [3-6] assault is the leading cause of facial fractures followed mostly by road traffic accidents, pedestrian collisions, stumbling
Greenstick Fracture, Child A greenstick fracture is a partial break in a bone. With this type of fracture, one side of the bone is broken and the other is bent. Greenstick fractures are more common in children than adults because adult bones are more brittle and more likely to break all the way through. CAUSES Fractures occur when a force is placed on a bone and the force is greater than the bone can withstand. A greenstick fracture is most often caused by: A fall onto an arm or leg.
Just imagine, walking down the sidewalk, stepping off the curb and BAM, you fracture your ankle pretty bad. The doctor tells you that you have osteoporosis after several scans and tests have been completed on it. You’re in a jumble and you’re all worried, but don’t worry. You probably didn’t even know you had osteoporosis until the fracture. Osteoporosis is a silent disease until the fractures and breaks start to occur. Osteoporosis affects one in every two women, but it only affects one in every
What are the differences between an acute injury and a chronic injury or disease? An acute injury is one that happens during a single event not over a period of time while a chronic injury could develop or worsen over time. Chronic injuries usually happen as a result repetitive trauma to the same area injuring it worse every time. If not treated, an acute injury can turn into a chronic injury. There are many times of acute injuries, many of which result from sporting accidents. An acute injury is
Forensic Anthropology: Using Bones to Solve Murders Elizabeth Martin May 8, 2014 Ms. Yahle 4th period Forensic Anthropology: Using Bones to Solve Murders When someone says forensic anthropology, many minds go directly to beautiful woman working alongside good-looking men while they work to solve a murder in a day’s time, thanks to the media craze with homicide. The recently popular television show Bones, put the field of anthropology in the spotlight. Though the show
Osteoporosis is a silent, complex, multifactorial, chronic disease characterized by the progressive loss of bone density, which leads to the risk of imminent fractures (1). Osteoporosis "Osteo" is Latin for bone. "Pores" means "full of pores or holes." Thus, osteoporosis means "bones that are full of holes"(1). The bone mass reflects the balance between formation by osteoblasts and resorption by osteoclasts. Around the third decade of life the peak bone mass is reached, and then begins a slow process
000 people in the United States alone Ref. The body of a person with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), or ‘brittle bone disease’ cannot properly form bones due to a mutation preventing them from producing a healthy amount of collagen, causing bones to fracture easily. This paper provides an overview of osteogenesis imperfecta’s symptoms, genetic causes, diagnosis, and its development. treatment and effect on a patient’s life. Osteogenesis imperfecta is organized into four common types, although more
