Shearing the vacuum - quantum friction [PDF]
We consider two perfectly smooth featureless surfaces at T=0, defined only by their respective dielectric functions, separated by a finite distance, and ask the question whether they can experience any friction when sheared parallel to their interface. We find large frictional effects comparable to everyday frictional forces provided that the materials

Shear friction capacity of self-consolidating concrete
An experimental research was developed to evaluate shear transfer in self-consolidating. Three concrete mixes were prepared, one conventional and two self-consolidating, differing on the proportion of the coarse and fine aggregate used.

Suction caissons are popular for mooring oil and gas platforms and fixing wind turbines. The penetration resistance is mainly the friction between the inner and outer walls during suction penetration in sand.

Effects of Groove Feature on Shear Behavior of Steel-Sand Interface
Surface groove morphology of structure and particle distribution of soil had a significant effect on the surface friction of structure. In order to investigate the interface shear stress-shear displacement curves, interface model and interface shear ...

Measuring Interparticle Friction of Granules for Micromechanical Modeling
The aim of this paper is to develop an experimental procedure to measure contact friction between granular particles. The contact friction is a micro-property needed in the micromechanical modeling of a granular medium.

Shearing of frictional sphere packings [PDF]
We measure shear response in packings of glass beads by pulling a thin, rough, metal plate vertically through a bed of volume fraction phi, which is set, before the plate is pulled, in the range 0.575 to 0.628. The yield stress is velocity independent over 4 decades and increases exponentially with phi, with a transition at phi approximately 0.595.

Friction and Shear Properties of Pine Biomass and Pellets [PDF]
Knowledge on the mechanical properties of granular biomass is important for the design and efficient operation of equipment used for handling, storage, and processing. Their mechanical properties are used as a measure of material quality. In this study, the mechanical properties of granular biomass obtained from pines (sawdust, shavings, long shavings,
