The purpose of this research is to understand how the process parameters surrounding the Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) process affect the properties of the deposition. The powder used in this research is pre-alloyed titanium powder (Ti-6Al-4V),...
Aims. The primary aim of this randomized, controlled, blinded clinical trial was to compare the clinical and histologic results of ridge augmentation comparing a cancellous block allograft to a particulate mineralized freeze dried bone allograft...
Aim. To compare two techniques of ridge preservation using a cancellous mineralized particulate xenograft plus a collagen plug to a cortical mineralized particulate allograft plus a PTFE membrane using ridge dimension data to assess the...
The aim of the research is to determine if cone beam computerized tomography reconstructed panoramic radiography viewed in two different focal trough shapes, and three different focal trough widths changes the ability to identify high risk...
Aims . The primary aim of this study is to compare the clinical and histologic results of a flap vs. a flapless technique of ridge preservation after 4 months of healing. Both groups received an intrasocket graft of demineralized bone matrix mixed...
Aim. To compare two techniques of ridge preservation using a mineralized cancellous particulate allograft to a mineralized cortical particulate allograft plus an acelluar dermal matrix barrier membrane using clinical and histologic data to assess...
Aim. Differences in the healing of demineralized and mineralized allografts have been reported but their significance has not been evaluated in ridge preservation studies. The primary aims of this study were to compare ridge preservation using a...
Aim. The efficacy of ridge preservation procedures using grafting materials and barrier membranes has been well established in the literature. However, the loss of horizontal width even with the utilization of intrasocket only guided bone...
This thesis looks at the optimization of fluid flow and mass transfer using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in a micro fluidic coulter counter. CFD will be used to solve equations of fluid flow and mass transfer to see how molecules within the...
Since the beginning of the VLSI era, various technologies have been adopted for developing the design and characterization of analog circuits. For robust design, the influences of the process parameter variations have been considered over the...
Background: For more than 10 years, Invisalign has been a treatment alternative to traditional bands and brackets for the treatment of malocclusion. In order to relieve crowding in the dentition, interproximal reduction (IPR) or stripping is often...
The area of Knowledge discovery and data mining is growing rapidly. Feature Discretization is a crucial issue in Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD), or Data Mining because most data sets used in real world applications have features with...
The home of Mrs. Mamie Lutkemeier at 1432 Hepburn Avenue, Louisville, Kentucky, in 1939. A sidewalk leads up to a set of concrete stairs and pathway to the front entryway. The front porch extends the whole width of the building and is framed with...
In a printing ink plant, phthalocyanine (Pc) aqueous slurries are produced by grinding the Pc pigment in water using a media mill. Mostly, dispersions of Pc in water are used in heat-set printing inks to make the color phthalo blue. Typically, Pc...
The lower part of an oil derrick; within its base is an open-mouthed wood structure the width of the base, inside which a few men are standing. There are several small wood shacks to the left of the oil well, with a man nearby, and a man a stands...
A large two-story frame house with a front porch spanning its entire width, is partially obscured by large trees. The home, known as The Beeches, was once owned by the Lawtons, the model for the Walton family in the Little Colonel books. The author...
