The factor that tips you over the edge from being at risk for a disease to actually developing the disease is not always ...

Researchers from Osaka University find that peristaltic pump action and high shear flow forces promote amyloid nucleation.

Researchers from Osaka University found that peristaltic pump flow mechanically breaks supersaturation to induce amyloid ...

This video is an introduction to stress and strain, which are fundamental concepts that are used to describe how an object ...

This shear force is directly responsible for the shear stress τ on the x-face of a stress element at “a” in the positive y-direction. In class, we have used the Euler-Bernoulli theory of beams to ...

Stress transformation is a way of determining the normal and shear stress components acting at a specific location within a body, as we rotate the coordinate system we are using to observe the ...

If there are no shear stresses present, there is no fluid deformation, and the behavior of a fluid is described by the bulk modulus relating the pressure and the compression strain. In the presence of ...

Cornelius Wittig, a Ph.D. student in fluid mechanics at KTH, says the study offers a first-ever explanation of how shear stress interacts with biofilms over time to foster slime fouling on ...

Here, you can easily see how the laminae slide with respect to each other in the absence of shear stress between the laminae. Beam with shear stiffness Now let's consider reconsider our laminated beam ...
