Major, Paul W., Melenka, Garrett W., Nobes, David S., Carey, Jason P.
The design and testing of an orthodontic torque simulator that reproduces the effect of archwire rotation on orthodontic brackets is described. This unique device is capable of simultaneously measuring the deformation and loads applied to an orthodontic bracket due to archwire rotation. Archwire...

Constructing set-valued fundamental diagrams from jamiton solutions in second order traffic models.
Download2013-01-01
Flynn, M.R., Rosales, R.R., Kasimov, A. R., Seibold, B.
Fundamental diagrams of vehicular traffic flow are generally multi-valued in the congested flow regime. We show that such set-valued fundamental diagrams can be constructed systematically from simple second order macroscopic traffic models, such as the classical Payne-Whitham model or the...

Initial experimental and theoretical investigation of solar molten media methane cracking for hydrogen production
Download2014-01-01
Paxman, D., Trottier, S., Nikoo, M., Secanell, Marc, Ordorica-Garcia, G.
Previous work assessed the fundamental technical and market risks associated with the development and deployment of solar fuels technology in Alberta. It identified methane cracking in solar-molten media as the hydrogen production technology featuring the best combination of technical risk,...

The Effects of Microstructure and Confinement on the Compressive Fragmentation of an Advanced Ceramic
Download2014
Farbaniec, Lukasz, Shaeffer, Matt, Ramesh, K.T., Hogan, James
We investigate the rate-dependent compressive failure and fragmentation of a hot-pressed boron carbide, under both uniaxial and confined biaxial compression, using quantitative fragment analysis coupled with quantitative microstructural analysis. Two distinct fragmentation regimes are observed,...

Investigation into the effects of stainless steel ligature ties on the mechanical characteristics of conventional and self-ligated brackets subjected to torque
Download2014
Heo, Giseon, Nobes, David S., Al Fakir, Hussam, Major, Paul W., Melenka, Garrett W., Carey, Jason P.
Objective: Torque is applied to orthodontic brackets in order to alter the buccal-lingual angulation of a tooth. One factor that can affect torque is the ligation mode used to retain the archwire in the bracket slot. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of stainless steel...

Leg Dominance may not be a Predictor of Asymmetry in Peak Joint Moments and Ground Reaction Forces during Sit to Stand Movements
Download2014
Adeeb, Samer, El-Rich, Marwan, Lewicke, Justin, Carey, Jason P., Schofield, Jonathon, Parent, Eric
Sit-to-stand transfer is a common prerequisite for many daily tasks. Literature often assumes symmetric behavior across the left and right side. Although this assumption of bilateral symmetry is prominent, few studies have validated this supposition. This pilot study uniquely quantifies peak...

Marleau, L. J., Sutherland B.R., Flynn, M.R.
Bottom propagating gravity currents resulting from full- and partial-depth lock-release experiments are investigated as they approach and then propagate up a rising slope. Consistent with the prediction of a WKB-like theory, the gravity current front decelerates in a nearly uniform manner along...

Stochastic reconstruction using multiple correlation functions with different-phase-neighbor-based pixel selection
Download2014-01-01
Pant, L. M., Mitra, S. K., Secanell, Marc
A reconstruction methodology based on threshold energy based energy minimization (TA) and different-phase-neighbor (DPN)-based pixel swapping is presented. The TA method uses an energy threshold rather than probabilities as an acceptance criteria for annealing steps. The DPN-based pixel selection...

Effect of Ligation Method on Maxillary Arch Force / Moment Systems for a Simulated Lingual Incisor Malalignment
Download2014
Romanyk, Dan L., Major, Paul W., Seru, Surbhi, Toogood, Roger W., Carey, Jason P.
Introduction: The objectives of this study were to determine whether there is a difference in the magnitude of forces and moments produced by elastic ligation when compared to passive ligation, and whether these forces and moments propagate differently along the arch for the two ligation types. A...
