Cyclic fatigue resistance of rotary niti instruments after simulated clinical use in curved root canals

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a resistência à fadiga cíclica de instrumentos rotatórios de níquel-titânio após simulação de uso clinico em canais curvos (curvatura de 40° e raio de 5 mm). Trinta e seis instrumentos, calibre n° 25 conicidade 0,04, foram divididos em três grupos: o Grupo A com um ciclo de uso; Grupo B, três ciclos de uso e grupo C, cinco ciclos de uso. Um cronômetro digital aferiu em segundos o tempo até a fratura do instrumento que, posteriormente, foi convertido em número de ciclos para fratura. Os dados foram analisados por ANOVA e teste de Tukey (p<0,05). O grupo que utilizou o instrumento por cinco ciclos (grupo C) atingiu significativamente menores números de ciclos antes da fratura (média = 197,5 ciclos) quando comparado com os instrumentos utilizados em um ciclo (média = 309,2) e três ciclos (média = 287,5). Os resultados mostraram que o número de uso de instrumentos RaCe para modelar canais curvos afeta negativamente a resistência à fadiga cíclica dos instrumentos após cinco usos.

Comparison of cyclic fatigue and torsional resistance in reciprocating single-file systems and continuous rotary instrumentation systems

As compared with continuous rotary systems, reciprocating motion is believed to increase the fatigue resistance of NiTi instruments. We compared the cyclic fatigue and torsional resistance of reciprocating single-file systems and continuous rotary instrumentation systems in simulated root canals. Eighty instruments from the ProTaper Universal, WaveOne, MTwo, and Reciproc systems (n = 20) were submitted to dynamic bending testing in stainless-steel simulated curved canals. Axial displacement of the simulated canals was performed with half of the instruments (n = 10), with back-and-forth movements in a range of 1.5 mm. Time until fracture was recorded, and the number of cycles until instrument fracture was calculated. Cyclic fatigue resistance was greater for reciprocating systems than for rotary systems (P < 0.05). Instruments from the Reciproc and WaveOne systems significantly differed only when axial displacement occurred (P < 0.05). Instruments of the ProTaper Universal and MTwo systems did not significantly differ (P > 0.05). Cyclic fatigue and torsional resistance were greater for reciprocating systems than for continuous rotary systems, irrespective of axial displacement.

A BCH code and a sequence of cyclic codes

This study establishes that for a given binary BCH code C0 n of length n generated by a polynomial g(x) ∈ F2[x] of degree r there exists a family of binary cyclic codes {Cm 2m−1(n+1)n}m≥1 such that for each m ≥ 1, the binary cyclic code Cm 2m−1(n+1)n has length 2m−1(n + 1)n and is generated by a generalized polynomial g(x 1 2m ) ∈ F2[x, 1 2m Z≥0] of degree 2mr. Furthermore, C0 n is embedded in Cm 2m−1(n+1)n and Cm 2m−1(n+1)n is embedded in Cm+1 2m(n+1)n for each m ≥ 1. By a newly proposed algorithm, codewords of the binary BCH code C0 n can be transmitted with high code rate and decoded by the decoder of any member of the family {Cm 2m−1(n+1)n}m≥1 of binary cyclic codes, having the same code rate.

A new transmission model in cognitive radio based on cyclic generalized polynomial codes for bandwidth reduction

The frequency spectrums are inefficiently utilized and cognitive radio has been proposed for full utilization of these spectrums. The central idea of cognitive radio is to allow the secondary user to use the spectrum concurrently with the primary user with the compulsion of minimum interference. However, designing a model with minimum interference is a challenging task. In this paper, a transmission model based on cyclic generalized polynomial codes discussed in [2] and [15], is proposed for the improvement in utilization of spectrum. The proposed model assures a non interference data transmission of the primary and secondary users. Furthermore, analytical results are presented to show that the proposed model utilizes spectrum more efficiently as compared to traditional models.

Cyclic codes through B[X;(a/b)Z_0, with (a/b) in Q^{+} and b=a+1, and Encoding

Let B[X; S] be a monoid ring with any fixed finite unitary commutative ring B and is the monoid S such that b = a + 1, where a is any positive integer. In this paper we constructed cyclic codes, BCH codes, alternant codes, Goppa codes, Srivastava codes through monoid ring . For a = 1, almost all the results contained in [16] stands as a very particular case of this study.
