A database of the structural behavior of masonry in shear

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2018
This paper reports the results of several on-site investigations carried out by the authors in the last 20 years in central Italy (Umbria, Marche, Emilia and Abruzzo regions) on masonry wall panels. The use of stone and brickwork masonry has been common for centuries not only for rural residences but also for public and religious buildings.

Shear Behavior of Bovine Scleral Tissue

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2014
Ocular tissue properties have been widely studied in tension and compression for humans and a variety of animals. However, direct shear testing of the tissues of the sclera appear to be absent from the literature even though modeling, analyses, and anatomical studies have indicated that shear may play a role in the etiology of primary open angle ...

Dynamic behavior of lung parenchyma in shear

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1996
Dynamic shear properties of excised rabbit lungs were studied by measuring creep deformation after application of a step indentation force to the pleural surfaces by a rigid cylindrical punch. The punch diameter was 9.5 mm, and punch forces were 2,4, and 6 g.

The Behavior of Fabrics in Shear

Textile Research Journal, 1966
A new instrumental method for the analysis of the stress-strain behavior of fabrics in shear has been designed which utilizes the Instron and its automatic recording. It is similar in principle to the laboratory method previously employed by Treloar.

Shear-resistant behavior of light composite shear wall

Journal of Central South University, 2015
Shear test results for a composite wall panel in a light composite structure system are compared with test results for shear walls in Japan. The analysis results show that this kind of composite wall panel works very well, and can be regarded as a solid panel.

The Influence of Shearing Velocity on Shear Behavior of Artificial Joints

Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2013
In this paper, the effects of shear velocity on the shearing behavior of artificial joints have been studied at different normal stress levels. Here, artificial joints with planar and rough surfaces were prepared with the plaster (simulating soft rock joints) and concrete (medium-hard rock joints) materials.

Critical behavior of entropic shear rigidity

Physical Review E, 2006
We report on extensive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of a model for gels in both two and three dimensions. The model consists of randomly cross-linked monomers with a concentration p of cross-links above the percolation concentration so that the system is in the amorphous solid phase. As the concentration of cross-links approaches the percolation

Postbuckling Behavior of Composite Shear Webs

AIAA Journal, 1980
In this paper the postbuckling behavior of multibay composite shear webs is explored. Several test specimens are designed through the use of advanced state of the art design methods taking into account material anisotropy. The panels are subjected to static as well as fatigue loading in a series of well instrumented and carefully conducted tests to ...

“Unexpected” shear-wave behavior

Geophysics, 1997
Abstract In a previous study, we inverted shear-wave birefringence observations from an azimuthal vertical seismic profile (VSP) experiment conducted at the Conoco Borehole Test Facility, Oklahoma (Horne and MacBeth, 1994; Horne, 1995).

Shear Behavior of Strengthened Beams

2018
Strengthening the reinforced concrete elements using polymer fibers continues to interest many researchers. In this context, an experimental study has been completed to evaluate the reinforcement on shear behavior of beams. Different fiber band positions were applied to beams in nodal zones. The four-point bending tests have been performed. The results
