Abstract The aims of this study were twofold: to compare the static compressive strength at the implant-abutment interface of 3 design systems and to describe the implant abutment connection failure mode. A stainless steel holding device was designed to align the implants at 30° with respect to the y-axis. Sixty-nine specimens were used, 23 for each system. A computer-controlled universal testing machine (MTS 810) applied static compression loading by a unidirectional vertical piston until failure. Specimens were evaluated macroscopically for longitudinal displacement, abutment looseness, and screw and implant fracture. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The mean compressive strength for the Unipost system was 392.5 psi (SD ± 40.9), for the Spline system 342.8 psi (SD ± 25.8), and for the Screw-Vent system 269.1 psi (SD ± 30.7). The Unipost implant-abutment connection demonstrated a statistically significant superior mechanical stability (P ≤ .009) compared with the Spline implant system. The Spline implant system showed a statistically significant higher compressive strength than the Screw-Vent implant system (P ≤ .009). Regarding failure mode, the Unipost system consistently broke at the same site, while the other systems failed at different points of the connection. The Unipost system demonstrated excellent fracture resistance to compressive forces; this resistance may be attributed primarily to the diameter of the abutment screw and the 2.5-mm counter bore, representing the same and a unique piece of the implant. The Unipost implant system demonstrated a statistically significant superior compressive strength value compared with the Spline and Screw-Vent systems, at a 30° angulation.

Carbon fiber composite material with light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance and other characteristics of its impact damage mechanism is different from the traditional metal materials. In this paper, the quasi-static compression of carbon fiber composites was carried out by using a material testing machine to analyze the damage mechanism. The Hopkinson bar technology was used to test the dynamic mechanical properties. The damage mechanism of the carbon fiber composites under dynamic compressive loading was studied. Stress - Strain relationship of composites under Quasi - static and dynamic compressive load. It is found that the main failure mode of out-of-plane direction of carbon fiber composite laminates is brittle shear failure, while the in-plane failure mode shows the properties of brittle materials.

Abstract Background: Restoring implants with not original abutment-implant connection are widely used by clinicians. Due to the current scarcity of in-vitro studies about compatible abutments and lack of relevant clinical studies, long-term fatigue performance of non-original abutments should be analyzed. The aim of this research was to assess the internal accuracy and the cyclic fatigue life after artificial aging of three implant-abutment configurations restored with one original and two compatible non-original “cast-to” gold abutments.Materials and Methods: Forty-eight original internal hexagon connection implants were connected to three different brands of abutments (n= 16 each): one original to the implant system and two non-originals. Internal accuracy and the percentage of surface with tight contact were assessed under Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) in twelve cross-sectioned samples at three different areas (platform, internal and screw). To evaluate the fatigue mechanical behaviour under cyclic load, samples were loaded according to the ISO Norm 14801 in a universal testing machine at 2 Hz in air. Previously, samples were aged by thermocycling with 10,000 cycles at 5 °C and 55 °C in artificial saliva. Results: Original abutments presented the best accuracy and highest percentage of tight contact in the internal areas. Meanwhile, original abutments showed the lower cyclic fatigue strength degradation and the long-term success. Conclusions: Occlusal loads are transferred more homogenously through the system when original abutments are used because the better fit between the different internal components. This fact provides the highest fatigue resistance for all the restorations studied.

The Impact

Three-dimensional hydroxyapatite-chitosan (HA-CS) composites were formulated via solid-liquid technic and freeze-drying. The prepared composites had an apatitic nature, which was demonstrated by X-ray diffraction and Infrared spectroscopy analyses. The impact of the solid/liquid (S/L) ratio and the content and the molecular weight of the polymer on the composite mechanical strength was investigated. An increase in the S/L ratio from 0.5 to 1 resulted in an increase in the compressive strength for HA-CSL (CS low molecular weight: CSL) from 0.08 ± 0.02 to 1.95 ± 0.39 MPa and from 0.3 ± 0.06 to 2.40 ± 0.51 MPa for the HA-CSM (CS medium molecular weight: CSM). Moreover, the increase in the amount (1 to 5 wt%) and the molecular weight of the polymer increased the mechanical strength of the composite. The highest compressive strength value (up to 2.40 ± 0.51 MPa) was obtained for HA-CSM (5 wt% of CS) formulated at an S/L of 1. The dissolution tests of the HA-CS composites confirmed their cohesion and mechanical stability in an aqueous solution. Both polymer and apatite are assumed to work together, giving the synergism needed to make effective cylindrical composites, and could serve as a promising candidate for bone repair in the orthopedic field.

AbstractTo analysis the failure and energy absorption of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) thin-walled square tube, the quasi-static axial compression loading tests are conducted for [±45]3s square tube, and the square tube after test is scanned to further investigate the failure mechanism. Three different finite element models, i.e. single-layer shell model, multi-layer shell model and stacked shell mode, are developed by using the Puck 2000 matrix failure criterion and Yamada Sun fiber failure criterion, and three models are verified and compared according to the experimental energy absorption metrics. The experimental and simulation results show that the failure mode of [±45]3s square tube is the local buckling failure mode, and the energy are absorbed mainly by intralaminar and interlaminar delamination, fiber elastic deformation, fiber debonding and fracture, matrix deformation cracking and longitudinal crack propagation. Three different finite element models can reproduce the collapse behaviours of [±45]3s square tube to some extent, but the stacked shell model can better reproduce the failure mode, and the difference of specific energy absorption (SEA) is minimum, which shows the numerical simulation results are in better agreement with the test results.

This work aimed to determine the influence of two hydrogels (alginate, alginate-di-aldehyde (ADA)/gelatin) on the mechanical strength of microporous ceramics, which have been loaded with these hydrogels. For this purpose, the compressive strength was determined using a Zwick Z005 universal testing machine. In addition, the degradation behavior according to ISO EN 10993-14 in TRIS buffer pH 5.0 and pH 7.4 over 60 days was determined, and its effects on the compressive strength were investigated. The loading was carried out by means of a flow-chamber. The weight of the samples (manufacturer: Robert Mathys Foundation (RMS) and Curasan) in TRIS solutions pH 5 and pH 7 increased within 4 h (mean 48 ± 32 mg) and then remained constant over the experimental period of 60 days. The determination surface roughness showed a decrease in the value for the ceramics incubated in TRIS compared to the untreated ceramics. In addition, an increase in protein concentration in solution was determined for ADA gelatin-loaded ceramics. The macroporous Curasan ceramic exhibited a maximum failure load of 29 ± 9.0 N, whereas the value for the microporous RMS ceramic was 931 ± 223 N. Filling the RMS ceramic with ADA gelatin increased the maximum failure load to 1114 ± 300 N. The Curasan ceramics were too fragile for loading. The maximum failure load decreased for the RMS ceramics to 686.55 ± 170 N by incubation in TRIS pH 7.4 and 651 ± 287 N at pH 5.0.

In order to clarify the effect of strain rate and test temperature on the compressive strength and energy absorption of polyimide foam, a series of compression tests for the polyimide foam with two different densities were carried out. By using three testing devices, i.e. universal testing machine, dropping weight machine and sprit Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus, we performed a series of compression tests at various strain rates (10-3~103s-1) and at several test temperatures in the range of room temperature to 280 ̊C. At over 100 s-1, the remarkable increase of flow stress was observed. The negative temperature dependence of strength was also observed.

Connecting prostheses to the implant abutments has become a concern and achieving a satisfactory retention has been focused in cement-retention prostheses recently. Sandblasting is a method to make a roughened surface for providing more retention. The aim of this study was to compare effects of nano and micro airborne abrasive particles (ABAP) in roughening surface of implant abutments and further retention of cemented copings. Thirty Xive abutments and analogues (4.5 D GH1) were mounted vertically in self-cured acrylic blocks. Full metal Ni-Cr copings with a loop on the top were fabricated with appropriate marginal adaptation for each abutment. All samples were divided into 3 groups: first group (MPS) was sandblasted with 50 µm Al2O3 micro ABAP, second group (NSP) was sandblasted with 80 nm Al2O3 nano ABAP, and the third group (C) was assumed as control. The samples were cemented with provisional cement (Temp Bond) and tensile bond strength of cemented copings was evaluated by a universal testing machine after thermic cycling. The t test for independent samples was used for statistical analysis by SPSS software (version 15) at the significant level of 0.05. Final result showed significant difference among all groups (p<0.001) and MPS manifested the highest mean retention (207.88±45.61 N) with significant difference among other groups (p<0.001). The control group showed the lowest bond strength as predicted (48.95±10.44 N). Using nano or micro ABAP is an efficient way for increasing bond strengths significantly, but it seems that micro ABAP was more effective.

This study concerns about the influence of foaming temperature which is applied to foaming process of aluminum foam to improve the stability of aluminum foam cell wall. Powder metallurgical method with four major foaming temperatures of 750°C, 800°C, 850°C and 900°C have been selected. Furthermore, the porosity of the foam was determined by ImageJ Analysis Software. Microhardness testing on the cell wall of aluminium foam was conducted according to ASTM E 92 using microhardness tester LM24AT with 200 grams and 15 s for loading time. The universal testing machine was applied to characterize the effect of foaming temperature on compression strength. The aluminum foam was observed in macroscopic and microscopic level using optical microscope (OM). The result revealed that the foaming temperature of 800°C gave the lowest value of porosity, with the highest hardness and compressive strength of 55.29 HV and 1.41 MPa, respectively. In addition, the highest porosity level was acquired by foaming temperature which was set at 900 °C. The lowest hardness value of 38.50 HV was obtained by foaming temperature of 700°C and the minimum compressive strength value of 0.75 MPa was exhibited when the foaming temperature was set at 900°C.
