Biomechanical Study in Polyurethane Mandibles of Different Metal Plates and Internal Fixation Techniques, Employed in Mandibular Angle Fractures

The aim of this study was to perform a physicochemical and morphological characterization and compare the mechanical behavior of an experimental Ti-Mo alloy to the analogous metallic Ti-based fixation system, for mandibular angle fractures. Twenty-eight polyurethane mandibles were uniformly sectioned on the left angle. These were divided into 4 groups: group Eng 1P, one 2.0-mm plate and 4 screws 6 mm long; group Eng 2P, two 2.0-mm plates, the first fixed with 4 screws 6 mm long and the second with 4 screws 12 mm long. The same groups were created for the Ti-15Mo alloy. Each group was subjected to linear vertical loading at the first molar on the plated side in a mechanical testing unit. Means and standard deviations were compared with respect to statistical significance using ANOVA. The chemical composition of the Ti-15Mo alloy was close to the nominal value. The mapping of Mo and Ti showed a homogeneous distribution. SEM of the screw revealed machining debris. For the plates, only the cpTi plate undergoes a surface treatment. The metallographic analysis reveals granular microstructure, from the thermomechanical trials. A statistically significant difference was found (P < 0.05) when the comparison between both internal fixation techniques was performed. The 2P technique showed better mechanical behavior than 1P.

Utilização de biossurfactante e surfactante químico para dessorção de óleo presente em vermiculita hidrofobizada: estudo comparativo

A number of methods and products have been developed in order to eliminate or reduce the negative effects that hydrocarbons cause to the environment, including hydrophobic expanded vermiculite, used in oil residue filtering systems at gas stations. However, upon adsorbing organic compounds, the vermiculite is no longer used and is sent to landfills. The aim of the present study was to wash granular and powdered vermiculite containing oil lubricant in its pores with distilled water and solutions of 0.1% SDS surfactant and rhamnolipids, with the aim of removing the lubricant and the possibility of reusing the mineral. The greatest amount of lubricant removal was obtained through washing with 0.1% SDS and both granulometric forms. This may be associated to the industrial purification received by the surfactant. However, the biosurfactant is ecologically more viable due to its low toxicity and ease of degradability. In the readsorption tests, greatest adsorption was obtained with the granular vermiculite washed in SDS solution. In order to enable the reuse of the mineral, further tests are needed to enhance desorption/adsorption efficiency.

Analises paramétricas de colunas granulares encamisadas com tecido geossintético através de software Ringtrac

This study attempts a preliminary assessment of the behavior of a soil improvement system with the use of encased columns of granular material with geosynthetic (columns Ringtrac ® ). This evaluation was performed using the software Ringtrac ® (developed by Huesker GmbH, Germany), which required different parameters such as soil Oedometric Module, friction angle of soil, thickness of soft soil and the embankment height .In each analysis, one parameter was varied and the other different parameters considered were fixed, resulting in a total of 726 results. Were considered valid only the results where the radial deformation of the geosynthetic encased column did not exceed the value of 4%, which is the maximum radial deformation of the geosynthetic adopted by the Ringtrac ® program. The analysis results are shown graphically in this study, evaluating the tension values in the column and obtained settlements in each analysis. It’s proven in this preliminary study that the variation of the soft soil friction angle in the Ringtrac ® column, will not significantly affect the values of strain on the tension in the column and settlements on the ground. Furthermore, the variation of Oedometric Module on the soil, will significantly affect the tension values in the column and the settlements in the soil
