Internal Resorption in the Dentin-Pulpal Complex: An Etiological Link to the Metabolic Acidosis of Diabetes
Abstract: The etiology of internal resorption is not by bacteria or caries but most likely initiated from chronic pulpal inflammation (i.e., chronic pulpitis) following intrusive injury to the dental pulp by one or more of the following means: (1) Traumatic injury (i.e., the most likely etiology) which often involves the oral cavity and teeth. (2) Chemical injury may be by elevated dose fluoride use or from caustic products used in bleaching. …

Effect on Temperature and Efficiency on Photovoltaic Module of PV/T System with Water Based Optical Filter
Abstract: Solar radiation has ultraviolet, visible and infrared radiations, in which infrared and ultra-violet part of the solar radiation are mainly responsible for the heating of solar cell. This decreases the efficiency of the solar cell by –0.3 to –0.5% K-1. When we increase the concentration on the solar cell then the heat becomes more prominent and causes the damage of the solar cell, and also decreases the efficiency of solar …

The Impact of Temperature and Pressure on the Efficiency of Thermodynamic Processes in Power Generation
Abstract: A subfield of physics called thermodynamics studies how heat interacts with other types of energy. It plays a crucial role in power generation, where the conversion of heat energy into mechanical energy and eventually into electrical energy is carried out. Temperature and pressure are just two of the many variables that affect how efficiently thermodynamic processes produce electricity. This article aims to provide an overview of the impact of temperature …

Recyclable Vitrimer-Matrix Carbon-Fiber Composites for Aerostructures: Reprocessing Efficiency and Retention of Mechanical Performance
Abstract: To begin with, carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have become an important part of the structural loading in many modern aircraft; however, due to their permanent cross-linking in thermosets, they cannot easily be restored after being retired. Vitrimers have been proposed as a solution since their Covalent Adaptable Networks (CANs), rearranged by associative exchange, may be reshaped, welded, repaired or dissolved without damaging the CFRP fibers. This paper reviews whether …

Identification of Elements Exist in Area Around Khartoum Petroleum Refinery Using Spectroscopic Method
Abstract: Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a method of atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) that uses a laser-generated plasma as the hot vaporization, atomization, and excitation source. Plasma is often called the fourth state of matter. The various states of matter occur as a substance is heated to temperatures corresponding to thermal energies above the binding energies for particular state of matter. Structured systems placed in a sufficiently hot environment. LIBS technique …

Animal Detection in Farms Using Opencv
Abstract: Agriculture plays a fundamental role in sustaining the Indian economy, providing employment and livelihood to a large portion of the population. Despite advancements in farming techniques, one of the persistent challenges faced by farmers is the intrusion of wild animals into agricultural fields. Such intrusions often lead to large-scale crop damage, financial loss, and emotional distress for farmers. Traditional animal deterrent methods, such as manual patrolling, fences, or scarecrows, have …
