Sentence examples for tangential shear from inspiring English sources

Polymer melts are fluids, which means they flow under the application of a tangential (shear stress).

Navier [6] in 1827 first proposed a partial slip condition for rough surfaces, relating the tangential velocity to the local tangential shear stress.

The matrix equivalent stresses, however, are not significantly affected by tangential shear sliding until normal interface separation occurs.

During transverse loading of fiber-matrix composites, the interface is subjected to both tangential shear stresses and radial stresses.

During transverse loading of continuous fibre-reinforced composites, large tangential shear stresses develop at the interface at about 45° to the loading axis.

Results indicate that stress redistribution due to tangential shear sliding may significantly modify both interface radial stress distribution and matrix hoop stress.

The mechanisms of airspace injury that mediate adverse patterns of mechanical ventilation include stretching of open lung units, amplified tangential (shearing) forces at the interface between open and closed lung units, and the recurring small airway trauma of tidal breathing.

Initial current sheet geometry includes tangential and shear components of the magnetic field.

The blood flow through vessels produces a tangential, or shear, stress sensed by their innermost layer (i.e., endothelium) and representing a major hemodynamic force.

Surface wear damage is predicted to have a significant effect on the near-surface tangential and shear stress distributions for both slip regimes, with significant differences between the partial slip and gross slip cases.

Independent fluidic ports connecting the endothelial channels were used to deliver tangential fluid shear and create gradients of the vascular morphogen, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
