  2. Dilatancy (granular material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilatancy_(granular_material)

    On the other hand, when a granular material starts in a very loose state it may continuously compact instead of dilating under shear. A sample of a material is called dilative if its volume increases with increasing shear and contractive if the volume decreases with increasing shear. [7] [8] Dilatancy is a common feature of soils and sands. Its ...

  3. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    The shear modulus is one of several quantities for measuring the stiffness of materials. All of them arise in the generalized Hooke's law: . Young's modulus E describes the material's strain response to uniaxial stress in the direction of this stress (like pulling on the ends of a wire or putting a weight on top of a column, with the wire getting longer and the column losing height),

  4. Shearing (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shearing_(manufacturing)

    Shearing, also known as die cutting, [1] is a process that cuts stock without the formation of chips or the use of burning or melting. Strictly speaking, if the cutting blades are straight the process is called shearing; if the cutting blades are curved then they are shearing-type operations. [2]

  5. Shear rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_rate

    For the simple shear case, it is just a gradient of velocity in a flowing material. The SI unit of measurement for shear rate is s −1, expressed as "reciprocal seconds" or "inverse seconds". [1] However, when modelling fluids in 3D, it is common to consider a scalar value for the shear rate by calculating the second invariant of the strain ...

  7. Foundry Products Operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundry_Products_Operations

    In the previous ten-year period, Milacron had invested more than $8 million in the 400,000-square-foot (37,000 m 2) plant. The sale represented the end of the Foundry Products Operations. The modernized New Foundry was adapted as a metalcasting operation that supplies many companies and customers with a full range of gray and ductile iron castings.

  8. Schmid's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmid's_Law

    Schmid's Law states that the critically resolved shear stress (τ) is equal to the stress applied to the material (σ) multiplied by the cosine of the angle with the vector normal to the glide plane (φ) and the cosine of the angle with the glide direction (λ). Which can be expressed as: [2] =

  9. Shear forming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_forming

    Fig. 1. A shear formed product: a hollow cone with a thin wall thickness. Shear forming, also referred as shear spinning, is similar to metal spinning. In shear spinning the area of the final piece is approximately equal to that of the flat sheet metal blank. The wall thickness is maintained by controlling the gap between the roller and the ...
