Dilute oil dispersions of fractal carbon black particles with attractive Van der Waals interactions display continuous shear thickening followed by shear thinning at high shear rates. The shear thickening transition occurs at $\dotγ_{c}\approx 10^...
An alligator shear, historically known as a lever shear and sometimes as a crocodile shear, is a metal-cutting shear with a hinged jaw, powered by a flywheel
We review and compare the phenomenological aspects and physical origin of shear-localization and shear-banding in various material types, namely emulsions, suspensions, colloids, granular materials and micellar systems. It appears that shear-bandin...
loads. A shear wall resists loads parallel to the plane of the wall. Collectors, also known as drag members, transfer the diaphragm shear to shear walls
atmosphere. Atmospheric wind shear is normally described as either vertical or horizontal wind shear. Vertical wind shear is a change in wind speed or
Look up shear in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Shear may refer to: Animal shearing, the collection of wool from various species Sheep shearing The removal
We investigate how the pressure in fluctuating shear flow depends on the shear rate $S$ and on the system size $L$ by studying fluctuating hydrodynamics under shear conditions. We derive anomalous forms of the pressure for two limiting values of th...
We use Shear Transformation Zone (STZ) theory to develop a deformation map for amorphous solids as a function of the imposed shear rate and initial material preparation. The STZ formulation incorporates recent simulation results [Haxton and Liu, PR...
Shear banding is an important feature of flow in complex fluids. Essentially, shear bands refer to the coexistence of flowing and non-flowing regions in driven material. Understanding the possible sources of shear banding has important implications...
We performed a series of molecular dynamics simulations on monodisperse polymer melts to investigate the formation of shear banding. Under high shear rates, shear banding occurs, which is accompanied with the entanglement heterogeneity intimately. In...
Recent Couette-cell shear experiments of carbopol gels have revealed the formation of a transient shear band before reaching the steady state, which is characterized by homogeneous flow. This shear band is observed in the small-gap limit where the sh...
The interacting vorticity wave formalism for shear flow instabilities is extended here to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) setting, to provide a mechanistic description for the stabilising and destabilising of shear instabilities by the presence of a ba...
Edith Norma Shearer (August 11, 1902 – June 12, 1983) was a Canadian-American actress who was active on film from 1919 through 1942. Shearer often played
Atherosclerosis is a disease caused due to formation of plaque into the artery. Increase in plaque affects the wall shear stress. The present study is performed to calculate wall shear stress in different geometries of stenosed carotid artery. A 2D m...
Developing a machine learning-based predictive model for the time-dependent shear strength of corroded RC beams. (⭐ 6)
Though shear and sheer sound the same, their meanings diverge significantly. Shear refers to cutting or force-induced displacement within materials, whereas sheer signifies extremity or purity in terms of …
To shear a sheep means to cut its wool off. In the Hebrides they shear their sheep later than anywhere else. [VERB noun]
shear verb To decrease, as in length or amount, by or as if by severing or excising:
