  • Mechanical removals in decayed teeth have been performed using drill and sharp hand instruments. These methods have some disadvantages such as pain, local anesthesia and overextended cavities Therefore chemo-mechanical excavation of dentin carious lesions has been introduced. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of traditional mechanical methods using burs and chemo-mechanical methods (Carisolv) of caries dentin. Mechanical caries removal was carried with low speed round bur Chemo-mechanical caries excavation was performed with Carisolv (Medi-team), using the Carisolv hand instruments. The mean time to remove caries with two different methods was evaluated and the data analyzed with SPSS software (ver 11.5) by t-test (p < 0.05). For histomorphometry of caries removal were also carried with mechanical or chemo-mechanical (Carisolv) methods from 20 extracted caries permanent molars. Complete caries removal was verified with a $\#$23 sharp explorers, Caries Detector (Kuraray Co. Japan), and standard apical radiography. 1. Chemo-mechanical method was taken more times than mechanical method (1.5 fold) (p < 0.05) 2. Excavation for caries took more time for molar lesion than premolar lesion, and the least time was taken to remove the caries in incisor lesion (p < 0.05). 3. There were no significant differences to remove the caries between the maxilla and mandible (p > 0.05). 4. The remaining carious dentin was detected after the ckemo-mechanical removal of the carious dentin, and no smear layer were seen after the mechanical and chemo-mechanical removal of the carious dentin.

  • Chemo-mechanical caries removal methods are known to be more effective compared with conventional methods in pain reduction. $Carie-care^{TM}$, a chemo-mechanical caries removal agent, was introduced in 2010 but a systematic review of its efficacy has not yet been performed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of $Carie-care^{TM}$ on the outcomes of treatment of caries in children and adolescents. The primary outcome was pain while the secondary outcomes included complete caries removal (CCR), time, need for local anesthesia and behavioral response changes. A Comprehensive literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library up to 30 September 2018. The following keywords were used in the search: 'chemo-mechanical caries removal agent', 'dental caries', 'Carie-care', 'chemo-mechanical caries removal', 'chemo-mechanical caries excavation', other related keywords, and their combinations. From 942 studies identified, 16 were analyzed. Finally, 4 studies met the eligibility criteria and 260 teeth in 120 children and adolescents were included in this review. This review showed that $Carie-care^{TM}$ reduces pain during caries treatment but requires a longer time for effective treatment than conventional methods. Local anesthesia was not required in the Chemo-mechanical caries removal (CMCR) group. In addition, dental anxiety decreased compared to the control group, and co-operation was more positive. Therefore, it may be a useful alternative to conventional methods in children and adolescents, but further verification through additional studies is needed.

  • Mechanical removal in decayed teeth has been performed using drill and sharp hand instruments. These methods have some major disadvantages. Namely mechanical preparation often induces pain, local anesthesia and often leads to overextended cavities. Therefore, to avoid these difficulties, a possible alternative method has been introduced for chemo-mechanical excavation of dentin caries lesions on the market. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of between traditional mechanical and chemo-mechanical methods(Carisolv).(omitted)

  • The conventional drilling method of caries removal makes vibration and thermal stimuli, so that children are afraid of dental treatment. Recently, various non-invasive caries removal techniques of alternatives to traditional methods are introduced and chemo-mechanical caries removal is one of them. $Carisolv^{TM}$ comprises a gel that is composed of three different amino acids and a low concentration of sodium hypochlorite and specially-designed hand instruments. This report describes two cases of dental caries treatment with $Carisolv^{TM}$. The carious dentin was eliminated with $Carisolv^{TM}$ gel with instruments and then composite resin restoration was conducted.

  • This paper has numerically investigated the changes of loading-induced stress in concrete with the corrosion time in the sulfate-containing environment. Firstly, based on Fick's law and reaction kinetics, a diffusion-reaction equation of sulfate ion in concrete is proposed, and it is numerically solved to obtain the spatial and temporal distribution of sulfate ion concentration in concrete by the finite difference method. Secondly, by fitting the existed experimental data of concrete in sodium sulfate solutions, the chemical damage of concrete associated with sulfate ion concentration and corrosion time is quantitatively presented. Thirdly, depending on the plastic-damage mechanics, while considering the influence of sulfate attack on concrete properties, a simplified chemo-mechanical damage model, with stress-based plasticity and strain-driven damage, for concrete under axial loading and sulfate attack is determined by introducing the chemical damage degree. Finally, an axially compressed concrete prism immersed into the sodium sulfate solution is regarded as an object to investigate the time-varying stress in concrete subjected to the couplings of axial loading and sulfate attack.

  • We present in this work a coupled phenomenological chemo-mechanical model that represents the degradation of concrete-like materials. The chemical behaviour is described by the nowadays well known simplified calcium leaching approach. And the mechanical damage behaviour is described by a continuum damage model which involves the gradient of the damage quantity. The coupled nonlinear problem at hand is addressed within the context of the finite element method. For the equation governing the calcium dissolution-diffusion part of the problem, special care is taken to treat the highly nonlinear calcium conductivity and solid calcium functions. The algorithmic design is based on a Newton-type iterative scheme where use is made of a recently proposed relaxed linearization procedure. And for the equation governing the damage part of the problem, an augmented Lagrangian formulation is used to take into account the damage irreversibility constraint. Finally, numerical simulations are compared with experimental results on cement paste.

  • Electroactive polymers have attracted considerable attention in recent years due to their sensing and actuating properties which make them a material of choice for a wide range of applications including sensors, biomimetic robots, and biomedical micro devices. This paper presents an effective modeling strategy for nonlinear large deformation (small strains and moderate rotations) dynamic analysis of polymer actuators. Considering that the complicated electro-chemo-mechanical dynamics of these actuators is a drawback for their application in functional devices, establishing a mathematical model which can effectively predict the actuator's dynamic behavior can be of paramount importance. To effectively predict the actuator's dynamic behavior, a comprehensive mathematical model is proposed correlating the input voltage and the output bending displacement of polymer actuators. The proposed model, which is based on the rigid finite element (RFE) method, consists of two parts, namely electrical and mechanical models. The former is comprised of a ladder network of discrete resistive-capacitive components similar to the network used to model transmission lines, while the latter describes the actuator as a system of rigid links connected by spring-damping elements (sdes). Both electrical and mechanical components are validated through experimental results.

  • SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) substrates were fabricated with varying annealing temperature of $25-660^{\circ}C$ by a linear annealing method, which was modified RTA process using a linear shape heat source. The annealing method was applied to Si ∥ $SiO_2$/Si pair pre-contacted at room temperature after wet cleaning process. The bonding strength of SOI substrates was measured by two methods of Razor-blade crack opening and direct tensile test. The fractured surfaces after direct tensile test were also investigated by the optical microscope as well as $\alpha$-STEP gauge. The interface bonding energy was 1140mJ/m$^2$ at the annealing temperature of $430^{\circ}C$. The fracture strength was about 21MPa at the temperature of $430^{\circ}C$. These mechanical properties were not reported with the conventional furnace annealing or rapid thermal annealing method at the temperature below $500^{\circ}C$. Our results imply that the bonded wafer pair could endure CMP (Chemo-Mechanical Polishing) or Lapping process without debonding, fracture or dopant redistribution.

  • A chemo-mechanical method was used to prepare lignin-containing cellulose nanofibrils(L-CNF) from unbleached woodpulps dispersed uniformly in an organic solvent. L-CNF/PLA composites were obtained by solvent casting method. The effects of L-CNF concentration on the composite performances were characterized by tensile test machine, contact angle machine, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The tensile test results indicated that the tensile strength and elongation-at-break increased by 50.6% and 31.8% compared with pure PLA. The contact angle of PLA composites decreased from $79.3^{\circ}$ to $68.9^{\circ}$. The FTIR analysis successfully showed that L-CNF had formed intermolecular hydrogen bonding with PLA matrix.

  • $Carisolv^{TM}$ system was developed for removal of carious dentin with chemo-mechanical method by Swedish researcher. $Carisolv^{TM}$ is composed of 0.5% NaClO and three kinds of amino acid, i.e. glutamic acid, leucine and lysin. After these agents are mixed together, the gel mixed is applied to carious dentin and the carious dentin is removed with hand instrument without using burs. The mechanism of softening the dentin is postulated that the degenerated collagen by caries is chlorinated and the decomposed. But the details of the mechanism are not clarified yet.(omitted)
