This is a 3-D movie showing shear stress on the developing heart of a quail embryo during one complete heart cycle. Red indicates areas of greater stress.

The transverse load P will produce a shear force V in the positive y direction on a mathematical cut through the beam at point “a”. This shear force is directly responsible for the shear stress τ on ...
