## Abstract The beneficial effect of porosity reduction on the fatigue life of bone cement has been demonstrated in numerous experimental studies. Clinically, however, it seems that the beneficial effect of porosity reduction of cement around total hip replacement components can only be found in la

## Abstract The fracture of restored teeth is a significant obstacle to lifelong oral health. Recent studies suggest that fatigue cracks originate at flaws introduced during cavity preparation and that fatigue crack growth is a principle cause of restored tooth fractures. In this study, the rate of
Fatigue properties of two engineering rubbers have been measured in air and water. The fatigue crack growth rate, dc/dN, where c is the crack length and N the number of cycles, was measured as a function of tear energy for chloroprene rubber (CR) and natural rubber (NR). In general, the effect of wa
The in situ transmission electron microscope allows us to visualise processes occurring at surfaces and interfaces in real time and is therefore capable of providing detailed, quantitative information about reaction mechanisms. We have used a UHV TEM equipped with in situ growth capabilities to stud
