Static shear modulus of electrorheological fluids [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2006
We report measurements of the static shear modulus of electrorheological (ER) fluids consisting of water-wetted silica microspheres in silicone oil. A shear-annealing method, using creep-recovery (CR) cycles under an external electric field, is used to enhance ER properties of the fluid.

Fabrication and characterization of magneto-rheological shear-stiffened elastomers

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2014
This study presents a novel smart solid material called magneto-rheological shear-stiffened elastomer whose storage modulus can be changed obviously by both magnetic field and shear rate.

Enhancing the CPT correlation with the small strain shear stiffness of sands

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2017
The cone penetration test (CPT) is a valuable geotechnical insitu test. Yet, the CPT correlations with the small strain shear modulus and seismic shear wave velocity still need more research to enhance their accuracy.

Point defect in solids: Shear dominance of the far-field energy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It is shown that the elastic energy far from a point defect in an isotropic solid is mainly shear elastic energy. The calculation, which is based on a standard dipole expansion, shows that no matter how large or small the bulk modulus is compared to the ...

Effect of Mean Grain Size on the Small-Strain Dynamic Properties of Calcareous Sand

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2022
Calcareous sand was selected as the prior material for island reclamation in many coastal regions. The mechanical properties of the granular materials are greatly affected by their grain size distribution conditions.

Shear modulus and damping ratio of a nonplastic silt at large shear strains [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Site response analyses and solution of dynamic soil-structure interaction problems need determination of variation of shear modulus and damping ratio with shear strain.

Detecting age-related changes in skeletal muscle mechanics using ultrasound shear wave elastography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Aging leads to a decline in muscle mass and force-generating capacity. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is a non-invasive method to capture age-related muscular adaptation.

Increased Upper Trapezius Muscle Stiffness in Overhead Athletes with Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Although excessive tension of the upper trapezius (UT) is thought to contribute to rotator cuff tendinopathy, no study examined UT tension in athletes with and without rotator cuff tendinopathy.

An experimental study of the dynamic characteristics of the undisturbed laterite under graded cyclic loading

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2022
In order to study the dynamic characteristics of the undisturbed lateritic soil subgrade under cyclic loading, the dynamic triaxial tests of undisturbed laterite are carried out with the SDT-20 dynamic triaxial apparatus.

A new view of the Lindemann criterion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Lindemann criterion is reformulated in terms of the average shear modulus $G_c$ of the melting crystal, indicating a critical melting shear strain which is necessary to form the many different inherent states of the liquid.
