The Ideal

Connecting teeth to osseointegrated implants presents a biomechanical challenge. This is due to the implant being rigidly fixed to the bone and the tooth being attached to the bone with a periodontal ligament. In order to overcome this problem, various connection types such as rigid and nonrigid have been proposed. However, the mechanism of attachment and the perceived problem of the differential support provided by the implant and the tooth have been discussed by many authors, and the ideal connection type is still controversial. The aim of this study was to carry out a review of all available literature addressing the tooth-implant connection and evidence-based understanding of the management of tooth-implant-retained restorations.

Equal Displacement

The excavation of large-scale underground projects produces a large amount of rubble waste material that is temporarily deposited near the project site, which forms a large-scale waste rockfill artificial slope. The slope has a granular structure, thus, during excavation and trans-shipment, surface shallow landslides may frequently occur. Existing contact monitoring methods such as buried sensors and GPS (Global Position System) are difficult to apply to the monitoring of rockfill landslides. Therefore, there are no appropriate early warning methods for waste rockfill slope landslides during dynamic transfer. Here, we used ground-based interferometric synthetic aperture radar to monitor the deformation of a rockfill slope during the excavation and transfer processes as a proposed method for the early warning against landslides on rockfill slopes during dynamic construction based on the radar interference measurement results. Through data cleaning and data interpolation, the line of equal displacement was generated, and the cross-sectional area of the equal displacement bodies of landslides was calculated. In addition, we established a four-level early warning grading standard, with the rate of change of the cross-sectional area of the equal displacement body as the early warning index, and realized real-time dynamic early warning of waste rockfill landslides during excavation and transportation. Finally, five landslide examples were used to verify the proposed warning method. The results show that the warning method can make an early warning 8–14 min before the occurrence of landslide, which can effectively avoid the appearance of catastrophic events.

Abstract This paper evaluates complementarities of labor market institutions and the business cycle in the context of a stochastic dynamic general equilibrium model economy. Matching between workers and vacancies with endogenous time spent in search, Nash-bargained wages, payroll taxation, and differential support for unemployed labor in search and leisure are central aspects of the model. For plausible regions of the policy and institutional parameter space, the model exhibits more persistence than standard real business cycle models and can exhibit indeterminacy of rational expectations paths without increasing returns in production. Furthermore, labor market institutions act in a complementary fashion in generating these effects.

AbstractThe paper argues against Sosa’s claim that sensitivity cannot be differentially supported over safety as the right requirement for knowledge. Its main contention is that, although all sensitive beliefs that should be counted as knowledge are also safe, some insensitive true beliefs that shouldn’t be counted as knowledge are nevertheless safe.

Using an experimental study fielded before the U.S. 2016 presidential election, we test one potential mechanism to explain the outcome of the election: threatened gender identity. Building on masculine overcompensation literature, we test whether threat to masculinity can explain differential support for Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton among men, and adjudicate between two mediators: desire for a male president and desire for a masculine president. As predicted, we find that masculinity threat increases desire for a masculine president (but not desire for a male president), which in turn increases support for Trump and decreases support for Clinton among men. This study empirically documents the role masculinity threat may have played in the 2016 presidential election and politics more generally. This study also contributes to theory by providing evidence that masculine overcompensation works symbolically to reassert the status of masculinity over femininity rather than to simply emphasize maleness over femaleness.
