Turbulent transport and dynamo in sheared MHD turbulence with a non-uniform magnetic field [PDF]
, 2009 We investigate three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics turbulence in the presence of velocity and magnetic shear (i.e., with both a large-scale shear flow and a nonuniform magnetic field).

Coarse-grained description of localized inelastic deformation in amorphous metals [PDF]
, 2009 The sequence of shear transformation events that lead to a shear band transition in amorphous metals is described by a spatially random coarse-grained model calibrated to obey the thermodynamic scaling relations that govern flow in a real glass.

Consistency aspects of out-of-plane bending, torsion and shear in a quadratic curved beam element [PDF]
, 1990 Curved beams in civil engineering applications call for out-of-plane bending and torsion under the action of13; out-of-plane transverse shear loads. The design of a quadratic displacement curved beam element capable of13; representing shear deformation ...

Density profiles of a colloidal liquid at a wall under shear flow [PDF]
, 2010 Using a dynamical density functional theory we analyze the density profile of a colloidal liquid near a wall under shear flow. Due to the symmetries of the system considered, the naive application of dynamical density functional theory does not lead to a

Making the green economy: politics, desire, and economic possibility
Journal of Political Ecology, 2014 The green economy is put forward as an apposite remedy to both economic crisis and ecological devastation. Policy makers, academics, corporate interests and activists are advancing their goals as part of and through the green economy, a discursive ...

Load-Bearing Performance of Non-Prismatic RC Beams Wrapped with Carbon FRP Composites
Sensors, 2023 This study investigated the influence of CFRP composite wrapping techniques on the load–deflection and strain relationships of non-prismatic RC beams. A total of twelve non-prismatic beams with and without openings were tested in the present study.

Assessment of phenomenological models for viscosity of liquids based on nonequilibrium atomistic simulations of copper [PDF]
, 2005 The shear viscosity of liquid copper is studied using nonequilibrium molecular-dynamics simulations under planar shear flow conditions. We examined variation of viscosity as function of shear rate at a range of pressures (ca. 0 - 40 GPa).

Measurements of the Yield Stress in Frictionless Granular Systems
, 2005 We perform extensive molecular dynamics simulations of 2D frictionless granular materials to determine whether these systems can be characterized by a single static yield shear stress.

Non-linear oscillatory rheological properties of a generic continuum foam model: comparison with experiments and shear-banding predictions [PDF]
, 2012 The occurence of shear bands in a complex fluid is generally understood as resulting from a structural evolution of the material under shear, which leads (from a theoretical perspective) to a non-monotonic stationnary flow curve related to the ...
