Layer structures are replete in biological systems, both natural and artificial. Issues concerning the lifetime of such systems are paramount to the quality of life and economic well being of our aging society. Our project will analyse damage in brittle layer systems that simulate dental crown structures. We are now at a critical point in the understanding of how these structures fail, and are beginning to make substantive predictions to improve designs for prolonged life. The project is connected to the dental community and international crown material manufacturers through a broader NIH project in the USA. The improved materials and crown designs resulting from this project will have impact worldwide, including Australia.

层状结构充斥着生物系统，无论是自然的还是人工的。与这些系统的寿命有关的问题对我们老龄化社会的生活质量和经济福祉至关重要。我们的项目将分析模拟牙冠结构的脆性层系统中的损伤。我们现在正处于理解这些结构如何失效的关键时刻，并开始做出实质性预测，以改进延长寿命的设计。该项目通过美国国立卫生研究院的一个更广泛的项目与牙科社区和国际冠材制造商联系起来。该项目带来的改进材料和表冠设计将对包括澳大利亚在内的世界各地产生影响。
