Study of endothelial cell apoptosis using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) biosensor cell line with hemodynamic microfluidic chip system by Yu, J. Q., Liu, X. F., Chin, Lip Ket, Liu, Ai Qun, Luo, Kathy Qian

“…A 12% apoptotic rate (nearly a 4-fold increase compared to the static condition) was observed when the endothelial cells were exposed to a high glucose concentration of 20 mM under 2 h exhaustive pulsatile shear stress of 30 dyne cm−2 and followed with another 10 h normal pulsatile shear stress of 15 dyne cm−2. …”

Experimental studies on the behaviour of non_seismically detailed reinforced concrete column by Lim, Marvin Wei Sheng.

“…Post earthquake and experimental research have shown that old reinforced concrete structures which are designed based on non-seismic details are vulnerable to shear failure during earthquakes. Shear failure can lead to a reduction in building lateral strength, change in inelastic deformation mechanism and loss of axial load-carrying capacity. …”

Near-field dynamics of parallel twin jets in cross-flow by Zang, Bin, New, Tze How

“…Further examination into the Reynolds shear stresses indicates that there exists substantial flow shear stress as the pair of inner vortices interacts, which yields higher entrainment level of the cross-flow fluid in regions adjacent to the symmetry plane. …”

Novel on-demand bioadhesion to soft tissue in wet environments by Steele, Terry W. J., Mogal, Vishal, Papper, Vladislav, Chaurasia, Alok, Feng, Gao, Marks, Robert

“…Plasma post-irradiation grafting makes it possible to graft diazirine onto PLGA substrates. When the diazirine-PLGA films, placed on wetted ex vivo swine aortas, are activated with low intensity UV light, lap shear strength of up to 450 ± 50 mN cm−2 is observed, which is one order of magnitude higher than hydrogel bioadhesives placed on similar soft tissues. …”

Customized glass sealant for ceramic substrates for high temperature electronic application by Sharif, Ahmed, Gan, Chee Lip, Chen, Zhong

“…The glass joints in both the Al2O3/glass/Al2O3 and AlN/glass/AlN systems maintained their integrity even when shear-tested at 250 °C. The results of the mechanical and microstructural characterizations demonstrate that Bi-based two phase glass frit bonding is an effective ceramic bonding method for harsh-environment electronic packaging.…”

Critical temperatures in thermocompression gold stud bonding by Zhang, G. G., Ang, X. F., Chen, Z., Wong, Chee C., Wei, J.

“…Under similar bonding conditions, the critical temperature is lower for a harder substrate than for a softer substrate, primarily because of larger interfacial shear stresses. This is supported by the observation on the interfacial shear stress distribution at the bonding interface based on finite element simulation models of substrates with different hardness.…”
