This paper deals with the study of the influence of the lay-up configuration on interlaminar and in-plane shear properties of glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites. The following laminates were produced by resin transfer ...

Dynamic shear amplification has been commonly studied in cantilever reinforced concrete wall systems, how-ever, coupling beams or slabs can generate axial loads that can modify the response. A parametric study is carried ...

The co-seismic and post-seismic behaviour of pyroclastic ash deposits and its influence on slope stability remains as a challenging subject in engineering geology. Case studies in volcanic areas of the world suggest that ...

The shear rate is an important bioreactor parameter that needs to be evaluated due to its impact on microorganism morphology and viability, and consequently on bioproduct formation. Airlift bioreactors, classified as ...

This paper presents the first results of a system to carry out seismic SPT, which associates the up-hole seismic technique to the currently used SPT test. This hybrid test allows determining the maximum shear modulus (G ...

We compute the spectrum of thermal photons created in Au+Au collisions at root(NN)-N-s = 200 GeV, taking into account dissipative corrections in production processes corresponding to the quark-gluon plasma and hadronic ...

The shear wave velocity (Vs) is an important geotechnical parameter to be used in dynamic problems (e.g. earthquakes and vibration problems) as well as in static deformation analysis such as excavations and foundation ...

The average shear rate (<(gamma)over dot>(av)) is a parameter used to characterize the shear environment in bioreactors, enabling comparison of the performances of different bioreactor models in terms of microorganism ...

A new derivation of Euler's Elastica with transverse shear effects included is presented. The elastic potential energy of bending and transverse shear is set up. The work of the axial compression force is determined. The ...
