About Mechanics-Materials and Dentistry of dental implants

Submitted by D.Rittel on

Dental implants are increasingly being placed for edentulous patients worldwide. While the clinical aspects of the implants are extensively investigated, engineering considerations of the implant as a functional structure subjected to ill-defined boundary conditions are less considered. A recent trend is to consider all ceramic implants as an alternative to the classical titanium-based implants.

Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC) for crack width control in reinforced concrete beams

Submitted by shavijabranko on

Dear all,

Our group at TU Delft has recently (co-)authored an article on crack control in concrete beams using strain hardening cementitious composite layer. Interested readers can access the article here (open access): https://www.researchgate.net/publication/335589673_Strain_Hardening_Cem…
