Static elastic properties of composite materials containing microspheres by Jones, GW

“…To motivate the analysis we consider the paradigm problem of the debonding of a distribution of cylindrical inclusions in an elastic material undergoing antiplane shear, with bonded and debonded inclusions playing the role of unbuckled and buckled shells respectively. …”

Effects of different types of starches on Katjang goat meat emulsion characteristics by ‘Ainaa’ Nasuha Zamzurin, Nur Aqilah Ismail, Abu Bakar Asyrul-Izhar, Pavan Kumar, Awis Qurni Sazili, Mohammad Rashedi Ismail-Fitry

“…The incorporation of SS in the formulation decreased (p<0.05) the shear force and work of shearing. In conclusion, the incorporation of TS was found optimum to formulate goat meat emulsion with better quality characteristics.…”

Dynamic behavior of reinforced concrete beams under varying rates of concentrated loading by Adhikary, Satadru Das, Li, Bing, Fujikake, Kazunori

“…Three-dimensional finite element (FE) models of RC beams have been described and verified with the experimental results, followed by a parametric study to investigate the influence of the longitudinal reinforcement ratio, the transverse reinforcement ratio and the shear span to effective depth ratio. Empirical equations are proposed in terms of various parameters to predict the Dynamic Increase Factor (DIF) of maximum resistance of RC beams under varying loading rates.…”

AE monitoring of reinforced concrete squat wall subjected to cyclic loading with information entropy-based analysis by Zhang, Xinchen, Shan, Wenchen, Zhang, Zhongwen, Li, Bing

“…Furthermore, accumulated AE energy shows a good correlation with the accumulated hysteretic energy and the damage assessment based on RA-AF analysis indicates the shear cracks are the dominant crack mode. Information entropy-based analysis was conducted, and its feasibility in monitoring the development of main cracks was validated. …”

Two and three-dimensional slope stability reanalyses of Bukit Batok slope by Leong, Eng Choon, Rahardjo, Harianto

“…The 2D and 3D slope stability analyses on the slope that failed in 1989 showed that the average shear strength parameters of the residual soils are representative of the slope and the factors of safety obtained from 2D slope stability analyses are not necessarily more conservative than 3D slope stability analyses. …”

Microfiltration performance with two-phase flow by Qian, Guanglei, Zhou, Jiti, Zhang, Jinsong, Chen, Congcong, Jin, Ruofei, Liu, Wantao

“…The results showed that the effluent quality was better than the supernatant under the same gas flowrate, while membrane fouling was effectively mitigated by increasing gas flowrate due to the shear force generated by two-phase flow. In addition, the critical flux was observed to have a positive correlation with gas flowrate, which fitted well with the inertial lift model. …”
