The landslide that occurred in Blatten in the canton of Valais at the end of May 2025 and the one in the village of Brienz in ...

Stresses in beams are one of the most fundamental concepts in structural engineering, directly impacting the safety and ...

This video is an introduction to shear force and bending moment diagrams. What are Shear Forces and Bending Moments? Shear forces and bending moments are resultants which are used to conveniently ...

For flat slabs, the effectiveness of a shear reinforcement is directly dependent of its capacity of absorb tensile forces and properly transfer them to concrete. Furthermore, they need to be practical ...

High-shear mixing and high-pressure homogenization are two approaches to particle size reduction, homogenization, and emulsification. Each method is principally based on shear force but offers ...

From Highland pastures to global fashion, wool’s history is woven into Scotland’s identity.

Wind can menace skyscrapers, but engineers have a solution for the big one going up downtown. Designed to resist horizontal forces like wind, the shear core for the 44-story Mutual of Omaha ...

A Times analysis used preliminary data to estimate the force of the impact on the Baltimore bridge. It involved “more energy than you can really get your mind around,” an expert said.

EZbolt is a Python program that calculates bolt forces in a bolt group subject to shear and in-plane torsion. It does so using both the Elastic Method and the Instant Center of Rotation (ICR) method ...

We propose here a new mechanism of thrombocytopenia, in which elevated shear forces directly induce only minor platelet activation but a pronounced GP Ibα shedding resulting in a rapid clearance of ...
