Measurements in a compressible planar shear layer with a thermal gradient
Experiments on a compressible planar shear layer with a sharp thermal gradient between the mixing streams were conducted with the goal of adding to a set of benchmark computational fluid dynamics validation datasets for unheated mixing layers as well as obtaining the first temperature measurements …

Constitutive modeling of the finite deformation behavior of membranes possessing a triangulated networked microstructure
… to a 2D fluid in that it resists changes to its planar area, yet poses little resistance to planar shear. A skeletal network of spectrin molecules is crosslinked to the lipid bilayer and provides the shear stiffness of the membrane. The planar triangulated structure of the spectrin network is …

Turbulent Molecular Mixing in Gaseous Free Shear Flows
… in this investigation span three main stages of shear layer development. Vortex mixing in the near field of an axisymmetric jet (ReD = 2300) is studied by using an acoustic pulse to obtain repeatable vortex formation and merging events. Results indicate that the mixing process is initially slow …

Multi-scale Finite Element Modeling of Rubber Friction Toward Prediction of Hydroplaning Potential
… mechanical tests such as uniaxial, biaxial, planar (shear), and DMA are conducted to predict the hyper-viscoelastic properties of the rubber. Using multi-scale modeling techniques, the friction coefficient between the tire and pavement, for wet conditions, is characterized via developing 2D …

Rolling Shear Strength and Modulus for Various Southeastern US Wood Species using the Two-Plate Shear Test
… CLT material properties, especially rolling shear, would need to be explored. The increasing demand for softwood lumber, along with the increase of demand of CLT panel production, could place a burden and surpass the domestic softwood supply. Rolling shear is a phenomenon that occurs when the …
