‘On-demand’ soft tissue adhesives by Mogal, Vishal Tukaram

“…When compared to non-treated polyester thin films, plasma intensity could give rise to a ~ 6-fold (for 100 W, 5 min.) increase in shear adhesion strength (157 ± 24 mN/cm2). Shear adhesion was 5-fold higher than L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine-based mussel adhesives tested on similar biomaterials. …”

Field relations, petrogenesis and emplacement of the Bhagirathi leucogranite, Garhwal Himalaya by Searle, M, Metcalfe, RP, Rex, AJ, Norry, MJ

“…During extension, sub-orthogonal dilatational forces exceeded sub-horizontal shear stresses thus facilitating the repeated emplacement of sheeted granite melt, a process analogous to low-angle tension gash development. …”

Bending strength of local trees by Wong, Jazz Ji Xin

“…Correlations were found between modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and maximum shear stress. Results of greenwood properties were compared to other similar tree species, species of the same family, and assessed for the bending resistance against wind.…”

Fault slip and GPS velocities across the Shan Plateau define a curved southwestward crustal motion around the Eastern Himalayan syntaxis by Shi, Xuhua, Wang, Yu, Sieh, Kerry, Weldon, Ray, Feng, Lujia, Chan, Chung-Han, Liu-Zeng, Jing

“…Relative to the Sunda plate, GPS velocities across the Shan Plateau define a broad arcuate tongue‐like crustal motion with a progressively northwestward increase in sinistral shear over a distance of ~700 km followed by a decrease over the final ~100 km to the syntaxis. …”

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.…”

Numerical analysis in rock engineering by Zhu, Cheng.

“…Three modes of crack coalescence, shear, tensile and mixed types, are observed. The measured stresses and displacements depend on both external and internal factors. …”

Database for dynamic properties of Singapore soils by Leong, Eng Choon.

“…The effects of void ratio, confining pressure and plasticity index on the stiffness-strain relationship of saturated undisturbed soil samples were investigated. It was found that shear modulus increases with increase in plasticity index and confining pressure but decreases with the increase in void ratio. …”
