Pressure, friction, shear force, and moisture are controllable external factors that affect a patient's susceptibility to decubitus ulcers [ 5- 7].
Our results on interfacial friction and shear strength could have implication on the AFM three-point bending tests used for nanomechanical characterisation.
The friction and shear strength of nanowire (NW substrate interfaces critically influences the electrical/mechanical performance and life time of NW-based nanodevices.
Our results on interfacial friction and shear strength could have direct implication on the AFM three-point bending tests that are widely used in extracting mechanical properties of one-dimensional nanostructures including CNTs and NWs [37, 38].
Soil cohesion and internal friction angle, the shear strength parameters, can be measured directly in the field or in laboratory.
The cohesion, internal friction angle and shear strength of the grout were acquired.
The undrained cohesion c u and angle of internal friction φ u shear strength parameters were determined from UU triaxial test results.
A procedure of compacting the mix into slab specimens was developed and a series of laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of the new mix, including Cantabro loss, permeability, acoustic absorption, indirect tensile, friction, shear stiffness and strength, and wheel rutting tests.
In this paper, the change rules of soft soil shear strength, friction angle, cohesive force and other mechanical parameters were studied.
The Mohr-Coulomb formulation allowed for the extraction of the internal friction coefficient and debonding shear strength as a function of the PyC layer thickness, an additional parameter.
