Introduction: One of the important aspects of provisional restorations, especially in case of long-span edentulous situations, short-height pontics, extended treatment time and in patients with para-functional habits is their flexural strength. Maintaining the integrity of the provisional restorations throughout the course of treatments is highly valuable and important to have a predictable outcome. Objectives: To evaluate and compare the flexural strength of composite based provisional materials. Materials and Methods: Materials: Group 1, conventional bisacryl composite material (Protemp 4, 3M). Group 2, Computer Assisted Designing - Computer Assisted Milling (CAD-CAM) composite provisional material (CAD Temp). Method: Twenty identical specimens sized 25×2×2-mm were prepared from each material. A standard three-point bending test was conducted on the specimens with a universal testing machine at a 0.5 mm/min crosshead speed, and the flexural strength values were calculated (MPa) for each specimen. The flexural strength data were statistically analyzed using T-Test. Results: The measured mean flexural strength values (MPa) were as follow: group1 = 99.38 in comparison to group 2 = 92.06. There were statistically significant differences among the flexural strengths of tested materials (P < 0.05), The conventional group had significantly higher flexural strength than the CAD/CAM group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, the bisacryl composite resin (Protemp 4) provisional material has superior flexural strength than CAD/CAM composite material. Although many authors recommended the use of CAD/CAM provisional materials, this study prove that the material composition is as important as the material method of fabrication.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the crystal phase formation behavior and its influence on the mechanical properties of LiO2-SiO2-P2O5 glass-ceramics system. High temperature XRD was used to analyze the crystal phase formation in situ. The crystalline phases in the material both before and after heat-treatment were also analyzed. The flexural strength was measured by three-point bending test according to ISO 6872:2008(E). The SEM analysis showed that the high strength of the glass-ceramics is attributed to the continuous interlocking microstructure with fine lithium disilicate crystallines.

TRIP steel possesses high strength and excellent ductility. In addition, it is possible that TRIP steel indicates high energy absorption so that TRIP steel is expected to apply to automotive members. To design the members made of TRIP steel, it is important to clarify its energy absorption characteristic at various deformation rates. In the previous study, the energy absorption characteristic of TRIP steel is evaluated by J-integral under quasi-static to dynamic condition by using a thick specimen based on ASTM standard. However, by using such thick specimens, it is difficult to conduct the three-point bending test under impact condition because of high ductility in TRIP steel. A small punch (SP) test is the experimental method which can evaluate fracture parameters such as J-integral. By using a conventional use of small specimen in the SP test, it is possible to evaluate J-integral of TRIP steel under impact deformation. In this study, energy absorption characteristic of TRIP steel is investigated by SP test under different deflection rates. Then, the relationship between the values of J-integral obtained by previously conducted three-point bending test and the SP test of TRIP steel is discussed.

Cold Formed Steel

<p>Getting good lumber for housing construction is becoming difficult in the Philippines due to existing partial log ban. Although, the use of reinforced concrete is still the most popular in construction, an emerging alternative is the use of cold-formed steel (CFS). It is gaining popularity because of its high strength-to- weight ratio. However, information about the structural performance of locally-produced cold-formed steel is almost nonexistent. Although, design provisions are stipulated in the local Code, these are based on formulas developed abroad, hence the need to investigate these cold-formed steel. This study focuses on the C-section cold-formed steel, which is the most popularly used. The objective is to verify its performance when subjected to axial compression and flexure, both experimentally and computationally. For the computational part, the formulas stipulated in the National Structural Code of the Philippines were followed. For the experimental part, the cold-formed steel members were subjected to compression loads and flexural loads. Aside from usual sensors, high-speed cameras were used to capture the failure modes. For axial compression test, 80 specimens with different lengths and thicknesses were tested. For flexure, 24 specimens of back-to-back C-sections were subjected to 4-point bending test. Results showed the predicted strengths were well below the experimental values. In design, this means the use of Code-based formulas is conservative. Failure modes observed were torsional buckling and distortional buckling. Comparison of failure modes between experiment and computation shows 70% agreement for compression and 75% for flexure. Finite element method calculations were also done and were compared with experimental results.</p>

AbstractThe molecular chains of a highly oriented polymer lie in the same direction. A highly oriented polymer is an engineering material with a high strength-to-weight ratio and favorable mechanical properties. Such an orthotropic material has biaxially arranged molecular chains that resist stress in the tensile direction, giving it a high commercial value. In this investigation, finite element analysis (FEA) was utilized to elucidate the deformation and failure of a highly oriented polymer. Based on the principles of material mechanics and using the FEA software, Abaqus, a solid model of an I-beam was constructed, and the lengths of this beam were set based on their heights. Three-point bending tests were performed to simulate the properties of the orthotropic highly oriented polymer, yielding results that reveal both tension failure and shear failure. The aspect ratio that most favored the manufacture of an I-beam from highly oriented polymers was obtained; based on this ratio, a die drawing mold can be developed in the future.

Main Factor

This paper presents an experimental study on the development of biocomposite material by using sawdust (SD) and rice husk (RH). The use of composite in the present production has increased dramatically since the 1970’s. Traditional material like aluminum, steel, iron and copper etc. may be easily replaced by using this classical biocomposites. The tensile test, hardness and tear resistance test were conducted in a Universal testing machine as per ASTM D638, ASTM D2240 and ASTM D1004 standard, respectively. Although commercial industries have increasingly been concerned with the low cost, light weight and eco-friendly material, the biocomposite material has also a great potential for reduced production cost and low maintenance which have proven to be a main factor in a push towards recycled biocomposites. In this paper we have fabricated a biocomposite model from materials like sawdust, rice husk. The main reason to use biocomposites is that they are more economical and have high strength to weight ratio compared to glass fibers. Hence fabricated material can be used for various applications.
