Analysis and optimization of cooling channels performances for industrial extrusion dies

Liquid nitrogen cooling is widely used in the extrusion industrial practice in order to increase the production rate, to reduce the die temperature and to avoid defects on the profile exit surfaces resulting from an excessive heating. However, the efficiency of the cooling is ...

Finite Element Model Prediction of Charge Weld Behaviour in AA6082 and AA6063 Extruded Profiles

Charge welds are unavoidable defects of the continuous extrusion process whose extension needs to be accurately predicted in order to avoid profile mechanical failures or to minimize unrequired scrap of material. The aim of this work was then to evaluate the accuracy of the ch...

Traumatic Dental Injuries: Clinical Case Presentation and a 10-Year Epidemiological Investigation in an Italian Dental Emergency Service

Traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) are very common in the world population, and international literature reports several studies which helped in the definition of international guidelines. The aim of this study is to present two clinical cases of TDI and to investigate epidemiological and...
