Additive decomposition of shear strength in cohesive granular media from grain-scale interactions.

We study cemented granular media by introducing cohesive bonding (sliding or rolling friction and tensile strength) between grains in the framework of the contact dynamics method. We find that, for a wide range of bond parameters, the macroscopic angle of friction at the peak state can be split into three distinct terms of collisional, frictional and dilational origins. Remarkably, the macroscopic tensile strength depends only on the bond tensile strength, and the friction angle at the peak state is proportional to the dilatancy angle which varies linearly with sliding friction.

The shear strength of dental porcelain.

The widespread use of porcelain in restorative dentistry is generally due to its esthetic appearance even though it is brittle. The transverse strength, or modulus rupture, averages around 108 MPa (16,000 psi) for aluminous porcelain and 88 MPa (13,000 psi) for feldspathic porcelain. The tensile strength, as determined by diametral compression, is approximately 29 MPa (4,200 psi) for opaque feldspathic porcelain and 40 MPa (5,800 psi) for gingival feldspathic porcelain. The compressive strength is reported to be 340 MPa (50,000 psi) for a feldspathic porcelain. These mechanical strength properties of dental porcelain confine its use to low stress-bearing restorations or to those restorations with a metal substrate.

Amalgam buildups: shear strength and dentin sealing properties.

The retentive strength and sealing properties of amalgam buildups were compared in vitro in three groups of specimens. All teeth were prepared with flat, nonretentive surfaces. In the first group, the amalgam buildups were retained by four self-threading Minim pins. In the second group, retention was provided by a circumferential slot prepared in the dentin just inside the DEJ. The third group utilized an adhesive resin for retention. Dentin permeability was measured as a hydraulic conductance before and after placement of the amalgam buildups and before and after thermocycling. All methods of retention sealed dentin very well even in the absence of cavity varnish. The 90 degree retentive strength was: pins, 10.3 +/- 0.9 MPa; slots, 4.1 +/- 0.5 MPa; resin, 3.1 +/- 0.8 MPa (mean +/- SEM).

[Examination of shear strength of repaired composite specimen].

The test of the shearstrength of two composite-inlay-materials and two posterior composites exhibited a statistically significant less bond-strength of repaired specimen compaired with unrepaired control-groups, whereas each material showed different results. The indirect-inlay-system proved to have the lowest bondstrength after repairing. The combination of the two posterior composites as well as the two inlay-systems with each other showed that none of these materials was convincing as a repairing material.
