(2020-02-06)
Advanced materials are crucial for the development of many industrial sectors such as aerospace, automotive, energy, among others. These materials show superior mechanical characteristics of strength, hardness, toughness, ...
On the Use of a Simplified Slip Limit Equation to Predict Screw Self-Loosening of Dental Implants Subjected to External Cycling Loading
(MDPI, 2020-09-26)
Self-loosening of the prosthetic screws is a major mechanical problem affecting roughly 10% of dental implants, according to the literature. This phenomenon may lead to micro-movements that produce crestal bone loss, ...
Evaluating Disruptive Innovation Project Management Capabilities
(MDPI, 2020-12-22)
Firms must adapt to a business environment in constant flux. Economic and political factors and the constant interruption of new technologies force firms and organizations to change and to adapt, so that they are not left ...
