title: Engineering and physics in dental technology. Part 2.
abstract: Part 2 covers the areas of friction and lubricants, cross sections, parallelism, passivity and equilibration, levers, reducing the radius, immobilization, and transmitral of forces. Some elements of biomechanics are included in the article because of the interrelationship of biomechanics to engineering.
