Despite the abundance of evidence relating shear stress to the normal adaptation of blood vessels and the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, no 3D techniques are presently available that enable one ...

Figure 1 illustrates the response of two different solder pastes under shear forces. Paste A has a higher initial viscosity that decreases more significantly under shear stress. This behavior suggests ...

Endothelial shear stress is a tangential stress derived from the friction of the flowing blood on the endothelial surface of the arterial wall and is expressed in units of force/unit area (dyne/cm 2).

Abstract: Since 2006 and the introduction of the RoHS legislation preventing the use of lead in electronic assemblies, lead-free solder alloys have gained interest amongst the industry and academics ...

In physics, shear stress is a stress state in which the shape of a material tends to change (usually by "sliding" forces -- torque by transversely-acting forces) without particular volume change.

The solder joint formed during the ball soldering process is intrinsically associated with the performance and the reliability of the electronic system. This study analyzed the influence of parameters ...

The erosion threshold of sand-mud mixtures is investigated by analyzing the momentum balance of a sand particle or a mud parcel in the mixture bed surface, and a formula for the critical shear stress ...

The mechanotransduction of shear stress in vascular endothelial cells is still not completely understood. We show a pathway of shear stress signal transduction mediated by plasma membrane ...

In this article, we look at three types of forces: bearing, shear, and tear stress. These types of stresses are similar in that they occur when two objects are in contact or fastened to each other.

That got me thinking about revisiting the topic. I decided to build a few simple finite element analysis (FEA) models to explain stress in context, and also expand on the role of shear stress. Shear ...
