Experimental assessment of damage and microplastic release during cyclic loading of clear aligners. by Claudia Barile, Claudia Cianci, Vimalathithan Paramsamy Kannan, Giovanni Pappalettera, Carmine Pappalettere, Caterina Casavola, Michele Laurenziello, Domenico Ciavarella

“…Recent studies indicate that aligners, when exposed to the forces exerted during swallowing, undergo fatigue-like phenomena, leading to chip formation and cracks. The cumulative damage results in a compromised fit between the tooth and aligner, which is crucial for the effective execution of orthodontic treatment. …”

Numerical investigation of coal pillar damage mechanisms for various width-to-height ratios by Xuanhui Wang, Ze Xia, Qiangling Yao, Xuehua Li, Qiang Xu, Liu Zhu

“…Furthermore, the behavior and damage mechanism differences between conventional and yield coal pillars were investigated: conventional pillars are designed as strong structures that bear most of the load while the yield pillars are designed to buffer and transfer sudden loads to nearby solid coal ribs by gradually deforming. …”

Plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coatings: numerical study on damage localization and evolution by K. Slámečka, P. Skalka, L. Čelko, J. Pokluda, L. Saucedo-Mora, T. J. Marrow, U. Thandavamoorthy

“…In this contribution, two main features that affect the TBCs’ performance, namely the roughness of the bond coat and the microstructure of the ceramic top coat, are discussed based on Finite Element Method (FEM) and Finite Element Microstructure MEshfree (FEMME) simulations that were used to calculate stresses and assess damage within the coating. Roughness data obtained from plasma-sprayed CoNiCrAlY + YSZ coated samples are supplemented to discuss assumptions and results of employed numerical models.…”

Arterial Stiffness in Chronic Kidney Disease: The Usefulness of a Marker of Vascular Damage by Antonio Bellasi, Emiliana Ferramosca, Carlo Ratti

“…Increased arterial stiffness is a marker of vasculopathy in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, suggesting a significant cardiovascular damage. Detection of arterial stiffness provides physicians with useful prognostic information independent of traditional cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. …”
