Three Dimensional Finite Element

Connecting implants with teeth is sometimes considered for the support of prostheses in partial edentulism, especially in periodontally compromised and surgical treated patients. The aim of this study is the presentation of a model of tooth–implant nonrigid fixation in comparison with implant–implant and implant–tooth rigid fixation by three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis. As a model, a situation with a mandibular second premolar and two molars edentulism was selected. Two implantation options with three prosthetics designs were considered. The comparative analysis of stress and strain distribution values under vertical 100 and 200 N loading was performed. The highest peri-implant crestal bone stress distribution was observed in the model with the implant–tooth rigid fixation with 200 N vertical loading with results of 136.56 MPa. In the model with implant–tooth nonrigid fixation, the maximum strain value was observed in the tooth–connector zone and the stress distribution was higher in the connectors and the prosthesis pontic zone, with a maximal value of 27.77 MPa. The design of a tooth–implant fixed denture could be suggested as a method of choice for rehabilitation of the posterior edentulous segment in cases when only one distal implant could be installed. Further clinical research is required to obtain reliable validation data for the proposed method.

Flow evolution models were developed to evaluate the performance of the new advanced design mixer pump (ADMP) for sludge mixing and removal operations in one of the large-scale Savannah River Site (SRS) waste tanks, Tank 18. This paper is the first in a series of four that describe the computational model and its validation, the experiment facility and the flow measurements used to provide the validation data, the extension of the computational results to real tank conditions through the use of existing sludge suspension data, and finally, the sludge removal results from actual Tank 18 operations using the new ADMP. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach was used to simulate the sludge removal operations. The models employed a three-dimensional representation of the tank with a two-equation turbulence model, since this approach was verified by both test and literature data. The discharge of the ADMP was modeled as oppositely directed hydraulic jets submerged at the center of the 85-ft diameter tank, with pump suction taken from below. The calculations were based on prototypic tank geometry and nominal operating conditions. In the analysis, the magnitude of the local velocity was used as a measure of slurrying and suspension capability. The computational results showed that normal operations in Tank 18 with the ADMP mixer and a 70-in liquid level would provide adequate sludge removal in most regions of the tank. The exception was the region within about 1.2 ft of the tank wall, based on an historical minimum velocity required to suspend sludge. Sensitivity results showed that a higher tank liquid level and a lower elevation of pump nozzle would result in better performance in suspending and removing the sludge. These results were consistent with experimental observations.

Holocene Sediments

<p>With an area of almost 10,000 km², the project area represents the tidal flats on Germany’s North Sea coast. The tidal flats and their channels as well as morphologically highly active estuarine systems undergo significant erosional and sedimentational processes that prove difficult the assessment of sedimentological composition based on relatively few and temporally far stretched field measurements. The holistic databased simulation of both the internal structure of the soil itself and its sedimentary composition is based on around 21,000 measured surface sediment samples (from 1949 until recent) and yearly consistent digital bathymetric models, starting 1950, spatiotemporally interpolated in a 10 m grid resolution by the Functional Seabed Model. By utilizing the high temporal and spatial resolution of the bathymetric models, it is possible to quantify the seabed depth evolution (sedimentation and erosion) and to solve a differential equation to capture sedimentary evolution, a consistent and continuous three dimensional model of both the surface and the subsurface structures and sedimentary compositions can be generated. To further extend the volumetric extent of the model, around 16,000 sedimentary core samples are used to fill the spatial and consequently the temporal void between the lowest altitudinal range of validity of the aforementioned model segment to the lower boundary of the target model volume. This boundary is set to be the lower limit of the morphologically active or activatable space, which contains the volume of sediment that could be eroded in current climate conditions. The limit, generally speaking, can be expected to somewhat coincide with the base of Holocene sediments, as Pleistocene sediments – especially subglacial tills – generally take higher amounts of bottom shear stress to erode than unindurated Holocene sediments, which usually form tidal flat sediments. The purpose of the generated three dimensional model is to be able to derive sedimentological information in both custom spatial resolution as well as custom sedimentological classification as base and validation data for process based morphodynamic simulation models. With these enhanced models, the quality of the prognosis of morphological developments and stability of coastal areas as a tool for planning processes for coastal protection and maritime economy is expected to be increased.</p>
