Thermal-Feature System Identification for a Machine Tool Spindle

The internal temperature is an important index for the prevention and maintenance of a spindle.However, the temperature inside the spindle is undetectable directly because there is no space to embed a temperature sensor, and drilling holes will reduce its mechanical stiffness.Therefore, it is worthwhile understanding the Ointment thermal-feature of

Wnt Signalling in Regenerative Dentistry

Teeth are complex structures where a soft dental pulp tissue is enriched with nerves, vasculature and connective tissue and encased by the cushioning effect of dentin and the protection of a hard enamel in the crown and cementum in the root.Injuries such as trauma or caries can jeopardise these layers of protection and result in pulp exposure, infl

EFFECTS OF COMPRESSED AIR FOAM APPLICATION ON HEAT

This article evaluates the knowledge obtained in firefighting tests using compressed air foam system (CAFS) within a confined space.Six experiments were conducted for verification during the cooling of rooms and the self-extinguishing effect.The simulation was for a fully developed fire within a room.The fuel was chosen to simulate ordinary combust
