Aesthetic Remodelling of Fractured Tooth with Supernumerary Neighbours in Midst of Fluorosis – A Case Report

Restoration of a fractured central incisor supplemented by supernumerary teeth is always challenging task at hand. This situation becomes even more difficult in the presence of fluorosis. This possesses a task and also an opportunity for the clinician to establish the form and function along with utmost aesthetics. It requires a multidisciplinary approach. In this case a central incisor showing a complicated crown fracture with discoloration in conjugation with two supernumerary central incisors with mild to moderate fluorosis was treated endodontically after the extraction of the supernumerary counterparts and was restored post-endodontically by 3D composite layering technique in order to provide a more conservative and as minimally invasive treatment modality as possible with par acceptable aesthetics. This showed that composite restoration with 3D layering can provide aesthetically enticing restorative options keep more invasive options like crowns, veneers or laminates on standby even when time and monetary constraints are imposed.

The Impact of Culture and Generation Gap in Taiwan Workplace

Research has clearly established that culture has a great impact on the workplace practices. The purpose of this study was to find out if the generation gap and cultural differences which are a focused issue of many organizations have an effect on Taiwan’s workplaces. There are a number of cultural aspects that influence the way we interact with people in our work such as clients, colleagues, management. Corporate culture comprises of the national culture, gender culture, various communication styles. This influences the way we conduct work, solve problems and conflicts. This research demonstrated that there are certain generational differences and the impact of culture is in specific departments. There are various customs of Taiwan workplace which can create problems for foreigners to cope up and adapt to new traditions. They may experience culture shock. The researchers noted the required changes and transformations that occurred drastically in Taiwan workplace. And also, the changes in the decision-making of the two generations are studied and interpretations are drawn according to the research conducted. Culture influences management practices and the methods of working in an organization. Generation gap may create conflicts among the employees as well as between management and the employees due to a different point of views about the task performed and the rewards are given. This creates a problem in the working and development of workplace. These problems are deeply studied and conclusions are made to help solve the problems and study this topic further. Lastly, the research has covered the important issues regarding differential characteristics.

Design and Analysis of Spur Gear Train for APU Gear Box in a Manned Aircraft Vehicle

An auxiliary power unit (APU) is a device on a vehicle that provides energy for functions other than propulsion. They are commonly found on large aircraft and naval ships as well as some large land vehicles. The primary purpose of an aircraft APU is to provide power to start the main engines. Turbine engines must be accelerated to a high rotational speed to provide sufficient air compression for self-sustaining operation. This work provides a good understanding of spur gear design and analysis from basics, considering bending, pitting and scoring criteria. A detailed discussion of various correction factors and overview of material selection for gears is covered. It also focuses on optimization and reliability. A solved example is provided for better understanding of the concepts. In this paper, we dealt with the whole procedure for design and analysis of spur gears in a nutshell. We assumed fundamental parameters and arrived at whole geometry. Based on the given data, assumed fundamental parameters like diametrical pitch, pressure angle, etc. and using tooth proportions we arrived at the geometry of tooth. Calculating loads and stresses for force analysis of individual gears in gear train and for calculating the loads and the stresses. We used stress equations suggested by AGMA. We Estimated strength or life of gears and for that, we need to assume a standard material for gears and estimate the strength of gears using strength equations suggested by AGMA. Later we evaluated Scoring resistance. Finally, we optimized and arrived at final design by performing several iterations for optimum design.In this way, the different tasks were carried out and we arrived at a conclusion.

Impact of Globalization in the Four Asian Dragons

Amidst growing technology and economic capabilities, several countries have discovered how Globalization can become a catalyst for their economic development. The term Globalization is variously conceptualized, but in general, refers to the latest phase of capital expansion involving foreign exports or transnational network of trades so that the movement of economic resources is increasingly outside the control of any state. (Brown, 1998) Economies all around the world have shown massive growth in terms of economy. Countries which earlier had a blurred economic vision are taking the path to globalization to plow a high yielding economy. Many high performing nations also have decided to form special groups and alliances in order to target co-operative development through alliances like BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa), CIVETS (Colombia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Turkey and South Africa). Similarly, the Pacific Rim has seen the rise of Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan, and Singapore as growing economies which came to be known as the four Asian Tigers. These countries underwent major policy changes and economic decisions to fit into this criterion. With zoomed industrialization and exceptionally high growth rates, their strategies are now becoming an inspiration for many economic markets in the Pacific Rim. One such group which are considered their successor is the Tiger Cub Economies consisting of Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and Indonesia. These economies have started to emerge as financial centers especially, Singapore and Hong Kong which are one of the biggest financial centers worldwide. South Korea and Taiwan, on the other hand, are important manufacturing hubs of high margin industries like automobile and IT. The resiliency of these economies was proven when they survived and recovered from the Asian Financial Crisis of 1997 and the Credit Crunch of 2008/ These four countries are included in the list of Advanced Economies formulated by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). In the following paper, we plan to focus on the various development strategies, policies, and steps implemented by these four countries. This will help us in understanding the various aspects related to growing a previously underperforming economy. Also, we will focus on the importance of globalization for a country which plans to undergo an economic transformation. Finally, we would be talking about how other countries can implement the same strategies and cope up with the developing world.
