Evaluation of translucency in various monolithic ceramics materials

Mohammad, Mohammad B. 01 April 2024 (has links)
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM: There is no international standardized guidance to quantify translucency in dentistry. Numerous non-standardized terms are being used to describe the degree of translucency by the manufacturers. This makes it hard for the dental community to find definite and compare easy information. PURPOSE: To attempt exploring the standardization of the quantification of translucency in dental ceramics by comparing various optical property measurements including Contrast Ratio (CR), Translucency Parameter (TP) and transmission, gloss and surface roughness and by investigating the relationship between thickness, polish grade and translucency. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Four monolithic zirconia materials were used in this study; VITA-YZ Translucent, High Translucent, Super Translucent and Extra Translucent. IPS e.max CAD HT was used as a control. Specimens for each of these materials were prepared in 125 µm, 70 µm, 15 µm, and 0.5 µm polished surface in the following thicknesses: 1.00 mm, 0.75 mm, 0.50 mm and 0.35 mm thickness. Each group contained 10 specimens and the following tests were completed: transmission, CR and TP using a X-rite Ci6700 spectrophotometer, surface roughness by profilometer and gloss index by a glossmeter. Data was analyzed by using two-way ANOVA for different groups and Tukey’s for paired groups. Coefficient of absorption and loss of reflectance ratio were calculated. RESULTS: Reducing thickness and increasing polishing grade increase translucency. Material type, thickness and polishing grade significantly affected the translucency. A strong positive (r=0.99) linear correlation between transmission and TP was determined and these have a strong negative (r=-0.99) linear correlation with CR. CONCLUSION: Thickness, polishing grade and material type are major contributing factors to the translucency of ceramics. E.max HT is significantly more translucent than zirconia. Transmission is viable to be used as a standardized measurement of translucency with standardized material settings of 1mm thickness and optical polishing (polishing grade of 0.5 µm or its equivalent).

Emerging 3D technologies for efficient implementation of FPGAs / Implémentation de FPGA en utilisant des technologies 3D émergentes

Turkyilmaz, Ogun 28 November 2014 (has links)
La complexité croissante des systèmes numériques amène les architectures reconfigurable telles que les Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) à être très fortement demandés en raison de leur facilité de (re)programmabilité et de leurs faibles coûts non récurrents (NRE). La re-configurabilité est réalisée grâce à de nombreux point mémoires de configuration. Cette re-configurabilité se traduit par une extrême flexibilité des applications implémentées et dans le même temps par une perte en surface, en performances et en puissance par rapport à des circuits intégrés spécifiques (ASIC) pour la même fonctionnalité. Dans cette thèse, nous proposons la conception de FPGA avec différentes technologies 3D pour une meilleure efficacité. Nous intégrons les blocs à base de mémoire résistives pour réduire la longueur des fils de routage et pour élargir l'employabilité des FPGAs pour des applications non-volatiles de faible consommation. Parmi les nombreuses technologies existantes, nous nous concentrons sur les mémoires à base d'oxyde résistif (OxRRAM) et les mémoires à pont conducteur (CBRAM) en évaluant les propriétés uniques de ces technologies. Comme autre solution, nous avons conçu un nouveau FPGA avec une intégration monolithique 3D (3DMI) en utilisant des interconnexions haute densité. A partir de deux couches avec l'approche logique-sur-mémoire, nous examinons divers schémas de partitionnement avec l'augmentation du nombre de couches actives intégrées pour réduire la complexité de routage et augmenter la densité de la logique. Sur la base des résultats obtenus, nous démontrons que plusieurs niveaux 3DMI est une alternative solide pour l'avenir de mise à l'échelle de la technologie. / The ever increasing complexity of digital systems leads the reconfigurable architectures such as Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) to become highly demanded because of their in-field (re)programmability and low nonrecurring engineering (NRE) costs. Reconfigurability is achieved with high number of point configuration memories which results in extreme application flexibility and, at the same time, significant overheads in area, performance, and power compared to Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) for the same functionality. In this thesis, we propose to design FPGAs with several 3D technologies for efficient FPGA circuits. First, we integrate resistive memory based blocks to reduce the routing wirelength and widen FPGA employability for low-power applications with non-volatile property. Among many technologies, we focus on Oxide Resistive Memory (OxRRAM) and Conductive Bridge Resistive Memory (CBRAM) devices by assessing unique properties of these technologies in circuit design. As another solution, we design a new FPGA with 3D monolithic integration (3DMI) by utilizing high-density interconnects. Starting from two layers with logic-on-memory approach, we examine various partitioning schemes with increased number of integrated active layers to reduce the routing complexity and increase logic density. Based on the obtained results, we demonstrate that multi-tier 3DMI is a strong alternative for future scaling.

Physical design methodologies for monolithic 3D ICs

Panth, Shreepad Amar 08 June 2015 (has links)
The objective of this research is to develop physical design methodologies for monolithic 3D ICs and use them to evaluate the improvements in the power-performance envelope offered over 2D ICs. In addition, design-for-test (DfT) techniques essential for the adoption of shorter term through-silicon-via (TSV) based 3D ICs are explored. Testing of TSV-based 3D ICs is one of the last challenges facing their commercialization. First, a pre-bond testable 3D scan chain construction technique is developed. Next, a transition-delay-fault test architecture is presented, along with a study on how to mitigate IR-drop. Finally, to facilitate partitioning, a quick and accurate framework for test-TSV estimation is developed. Block-level monolithic 3D ICs will be the first to emerge, as significant IP can be reused. However, no physical design flows exist, and hence a monolithic 3D floorplanning framework is developed. Next, inter-tier performance differences that arise due to the not yet mature fabrication process are investigated and modeled. Finally, an inter-tier performance-difference aware floorplanner is presented, and it is demonstrated that high quality 3D floorplans are achievable even under these inter-tier differences. Monolithic 3D offers sufficient integration density to place individual gates in three dimensions and connect them together. However, no tools or techniques exist that can take advantage of the high integration density offered. Therefore, a gate-level framework that leverages existing 2D ICs tools is presented. This framework also provides congestion modeling and produces results that minimize routing congestion. Next, this framework is extended to commercial 2D IC tools, so that steps such as timing optimization and clock tree synthesis can be applied. Finally, a voltage-drop-aware partitioning technique is presented that can alleviate IR-drop issues, without any impact on the performance or maximum operating temperature of the chip.

Shear Capacity of Monolithic Concrete Joints without Transverse Reinforcement.

Yang, Keun-Hyeok, Sim, J-I., Kang, J-H., Ashour, Ashraf 09 1900 (has links)
yes / A mechanism analysis based on the upper-bound theorem of concrete plasticity for monolithic concrete joints without transverse reinforcement is presented. Concrete is modelled as a rigid–perfectly plastic material obeying modified Coulomb failure criteria. Existing stress–strain relationships of concrete in compression and tension are comprehensively modified using the crack band theory to allow for concrete type and maximum aggregate size. Simple equations for the effectiveness factor for compression, ratio of effective tensile strength to compressive strength and angle of concrete friction are then mathematically developed using the modified stress–strain relationships of concrete. In addition, 12 push-off specimens made of all-lightweight, sand–lightweight and normal-weight concrete having maximum aggregate size between 4 and 19 mm were physically tested. Test results and mechanism analysis clearly showed that the shear capacity of monolithic concrete joints increased with the increase of the maximum aggregate size and dry density of concrete. The mean and standard deviation of the ratio between experimentally measured and predicted (by the mechanism analysis shear capacities) are 1·01 and 0·16 respectively, showing a closer prediction and less variation than Vecchio and Collins' equation, regardless of concrete type and maximum aggregate size.
