The results of a study of occlusal contacts with increased abrasion of the hard dental tissues are presented in the paper. A new technique for determining supercontacts with an elevated abrasion of the teeth with the symptoms of bruxism is described. A study of high contact points will, enable in the future, to conduct therapeutic and preventive measures in order to normalize occlusal relations, when treating and preventing enhanced abrasion.

Abstract. Hydrogen sulfide in biogas is one of the most obstructive factors on utilization of biogas as fuel gas. At present, a domestic desulfurizing process of biogas in wide-spead use is the ferric oxide process. But this process has its disadvantages: the high cost and difficult regeneration of the desulfurizer, the secondery pollution the process caused. As a new technique, the bio-desulfurization of biogas has drawn more and more attention recently. This dissertation, with the experience of engineering abroad bio-desulfurization, is focused on providing a clue or a reference for the research and application of this technique in the future.

The actively prestressed strengthening technique of CFRP plate is a kind of strengthening technology with great application in the future. After a comparison and conclusion of the advantages and disadvantages of various prestressed tensile techniques for CFRP plate from home and abroad, based on the WSGG anchor, this paper puts forward the hinged anchor and a new technique where the hinged anchor tensions in vertical direction, the biggest characteristic of this technique is to ensure force uniformity of CFRP plate, consequently, high strength feature of CFRP plate can be fully developed. In addition, a series of improvement have been achieved, such as on-site baiting, fast clamping and rapid tensioning, etc. of CFRP plate. Hinged anchor and its prestressed tensile technique are firstly applied for the reinforced projects of Chongqing Xiaojia River Bridge and Chongqing Lianhua River Bridge, which promote rapid strengthening for the old bridges successfully.

A new electrogoniometer technique is described for the measurement of wrist movements, including circumduction, with the results being displayed as figures. Clinical validation has been performed and the system found to be highly accurate and reliable. Applications of the technique are illustrated. It is suggested this technique should in the future be used to assess wrist movement in clinical and research applications.

With the ending of the war, many of us feel that the world and the life of earlier years will never return. The rapid developments in all fields during the past several years will leave their results with us, and we shall feel and live them long into the future. Education has had its share in this transition. During the training of American youth all methods of presentation of subject matter had to be tried for the quickest and best method. Needless to say visual instruction received a major emphasis; enough to make it a definite part of modern teaching.

The aim of the study was to compare the obtained data of hard dental tissues destruction indices with the corresponding indications for the choice of the method of treatment by means of mathematical analysis. Materials & methods. 120 patients aged 20 to 55 were examined and 358 teeth hard tissue defects were identified in them. The data of indices was obtained and compared with the indications for orthopedic treatment according two indices in the same clinical situation. Results. The study showed that the indices had different meanings and different indications for treatment in the same situations. Such discrepancies in indications for treatment indicate the subjective data of one of the indices, which does not take into account the depth of destruction and the volume of the remaining natural tissue of the teeth. Comparison of these indices showed different figures in the same clinical situation, identifying corresponding incorrect indications for the choice of the design of the first investigated index, as well as more accurate data of the proposed index. Conclusion. The index assessment of hard dental tissues destruction serves as the main guideline for the dentist when choosing a method for tooth restoration, and can be calculated using photographs, scans and computer software.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to use Fink’s (2013) taxonomy of significant learning in a retail marketing class to help rural, price-sensitive students develop empathy toward high-end urban customers while becoming self-directed learners. Design/methodology/approach Using a 16-week pilot course, students developed a gaming prototype and learned about the challenges of targeting those from a higher socioeconomic status. Findings Results indicate that educators using Fisk’s taxonomy of significant learning might be able to positively influence the empathy that individuals on the lower end of the socioeconomic spectrum might feel toward higher-end customers. In addition, qualitative data reflects how a majority of students acknowledged empathy as their weakness but data also reveals how students plan to become continuous learners to improve their empathy in the future. Originality/value This paper has two key contributions. First, it shows how using a creative style of teaching within a marketing classroom can influence a key characteristic that buyers would need to successfully engage with higher-end clients. Second, it uses a new technique (gaming) in which to do so.
