mech principles in controlling ortho force Flashcards
why change ruber bands each day
Lose eleasticity
how is a crozat appliance activated
Each time you go to the dentist
is gold a good spring
No
what do we use as ortho appliances today
Ni-Ti
Beta- ti
what is the future of ortho appliances
plastics
what are the properties of materials for ortho
strength
stiff/spring
range
what is the proportional limit
the point at which the wire begins to deviate from elastic behavior
what is yield strength
point at which a measurable deviation is observed
what measurment is often shown as the strength of anortho wire
yield strngth
what is the goal of an ortho springs mech properties
high strength
best springiness
best range
what is resilinece
the area under the curve up to the proportional limit
what is formability
area under curve betwen ultimate tensile strenth and failure
what is a cantilever beam
attached at one end
what is a supported beam
attached at both ends
how does doubling a cantilever beam thickness change its physical properties
(2d/d)^3 in stregth
(d/2d)^4 in spring
(d/2d) in rnage
how does doubling a supported beam change physical properites
puts the coefficient in front of the eq
how does doubling length for a cantilever beam affect it
1/2 strength
springiness 8 times
range in creased 4 times
how does one increase springiness and increase change in an ortho wire
lengthening via loop in wire
how can you increase strngth and sprininess
long wire with loops to increase betwwn individual teth
