It was measured amounts of mass loss and examined worn surfaces.
The optical microscopy was also used to examine worn surfaces and to characterize wear mechanisms.
88.8% of 808 children examined wore indoor footwear that was of insufficient length, and 69.4% of 812 children wore outdoor shoes that were too short.
The fact that 88.8% of the children examined wear indoor shoes of insufficient length, and 69,4% wear outdoor shoes which are too short, points to the general health relevance of this problem.
The present study examined wear characteristics of A356/melon shell ash particulate composites.
This study examined wear rates in retrievals of one design of MOM resurfacing arthroplasty, and assessed the differences in wear between those with and without ALTR.
Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe coating morphology, and to examine wear scars from pin-on-disc tests and crater scars from impact tests.
Fiorillo [22], [23], Calvo [26], and Upchurch and Barrett [30] previously examined wear features on the teeth of Diplodocus.
The fact that the majority of the children examined were wearing shoes of insufficient length makes the issue particularly significant.
The basic study include the modeling of wear progress and examining tool wear scars based on SME images and EDX analysis.
