Anomalous crystalline ordering of particles in a viscoelastic fluid under high shear by Sun, Sijie, Xue, Nan, Aime, Stefano, Kim, Hyoungsoo, Tang, Jizhou, McKinley, Gareth H., Stone, Howard A., Weitz, David A.

“…We find an unexpected separation of the particles within the suspension resulting in the formation of a layer of particles in the center of the cell. Remarkably, monodisperse particles form a crystalline layer which dramatically alters the shear instability. …”

The effects of shear deformation in non-rectangular steel reinforced concrete structural walls by Luo, Da, Zhang, Zhongwen, Li, Bing

“…Steel reinforced concrete composite (SRC) structural walls with embedded steel profiles have superb flexural strength and stiffness, which may lead to a more distinct influence on the shear deformation in these walls. If the walls have flanged sections, substantial influences of the shear lag effect could be expected. …”
