Transient shear banding in the nematic dumbbell model of liquid crystalline polymers [PDF]
In the shear flow of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) the nematic director orientation can align with the flow direction for some materials, but continuously tumble in others.

Direct Measurement of Wall-Shear Stress of Plane Shear Layer with Plasma Synthetic Jet Actuator
One of the useful ways to measure the effect of the flow control devise is to use the wall-shear stress sensor to measure the wall-shear stress directly.

Flow-induced reprogramming of endothelial cells in atherosclerosis
Atherosclerotic diseases such as myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke and peripheral artery disease continue to be leading causes of death worldwide despite the success of treatments with cholesterol-lowering drugs and drug-eluting stents, raising the

Spontaneous shear flow in confined cellular nematics
In embryonic development or tumour evolution, cells often migrate collectively within confining tracks defined by their microenvironment1,2. In some of these situations, the displacements within a cell strand are antiparallel3, giving rise to shear flows.

Generation of coherent magnetic fields in sheared inhomogeneous turbulence: No need for rotation? [PDF]
Coherent magnetic fields are often believed to be generated by the combination of stretching by differential rotation and turbulent amplification of magnetic field, via the so-called alpha effect. The latter is known to exist in helical turbulence, which

Shear flow induced isotropic to nematic transition in a suspension of active filaments [PDF]
We study the effects of externally applied shear flow on a model of suspensions of motors and filaments, via the equations of active hydrodynamics [PRL {\bf 89} (2002) 058101; {\bf 92} (2004) 118101].

Nonlinear Longitudinal Shear Distribution in Steel-Concrete Composite Beams
This paper describes a fiber-based model proposed for computing the nonlinear longitudinal shear distribution in composite steel-concrete beams. The presented method incorporates the accurate stress-strain relationship with strain softening for concrete ...

Decay of Vorticity in Separated Shear Layer
In this study, process of vorticity decay caused by viscous interaction in a separated shear layer was investigated based on velocity measurements and flow visualization in the immediate vicinity of the separation point of a test body. The experiment was
