Modern technology has placed increasing demands on materials. The need of hour is to
develop the new materials so as to overcome the limitations of the materials existed …

The thermo-mechanical characterization of interfaces in composite systems
(PMC/MMC/IMC/CMC) is one of the challenging problems in composite mechanics and …

Cohesive zone models (CZMs) are being increasingly used to simulate discrete fracture
processes in a number of homogeneous and inhomogeneous material systems. The models …

The interfacial strength and ultrastructure of a total-etch, self-etch and self-adhesive resin
cement used to lute endodontic glass fiber posts (FRC Postec, Ivoclar-Vivadent) was …

This study tested the null hypothesis that the use of dentin adhesives produces no
improvement on the fixation of fiber posts with resin cements in endodontically treated teeth …

Aluminum based metal matrix composites (AMMCs) have the potential for replacing
conventional monolithic materials due to excellent fatigue, creep and wear resistance, high …
