Shear design of short-span beams [PDF]
Eurocode 2 presents two alternative methods for accounting for arching action in beams. The simplest option is to reduce the component of shear force owing to loads applied within 2d of the support by the multiple av/2d (where av is the clear shear span and d is the effective depth).

Shear rate effect on the residual strength characteristics of saturated loess in naturally drained ring shear tests [PDF]
Residual shear strength of soils is an important soil parameter for assessing the stability of landslides. To investigate the effect of the shear rate on the residual shear strength of loessic soils, a series of naturally drained ring shear tests were ...

Effect of shear span-to-depth ratio on behavior of sandwich core steel girder with corrugated web
Girders with corrugated steel web are preferred and widely used in recently constructed bridges and industrial buildings. Sandwich core girders with corrugated web are constructed by adding two plates (skins) to the corrugated web.

Environmental sensitivities of shallow-cumulus dilution – Part 2: Vertical wind profile [PDF]
This second part of a numerical study on shallow-cumulus dilution focuses on the sensitivity of cloud dilution to changes in the vertical wind profile. Insights are obtained through large-eddy simulations of maritime and continental cloud fields.

Crystallographic preferred orientations of ice deformed in direct-shear experiments at low temperatures [PDF]
Synthetic polycrystalline ice was sheared at temperatures of −5, −20 and −30 ∘C, to different shear strains, up to γ=2.6, equivalent to a maximum stretch of 2.94 (final line length is 2.94 times the original length).

Shear behavior of externally prestressed UHPC beams without stirrups
Shear stirrups in a prestressed ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) beam might be eliminated due to the high tensile strength of UHPC. This research aims to investigate shear behavior of the externally prestressed UHPC beams without stirrups. Thirteen
