  2. Shear force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_force

    40 tonne-force × 0.6 (to change force from tensile to shear) = 24 tonne-force. When working with a riveted or tensioned bolted joint, the strength comes from friction between the materials bolted together. Bolts are correctly torqued to maintain the friction. The shear force only becomes relevant when the bolts are not torqued.

  3. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    The resulting shear stress, τ, deforms the rectangle into a parallelogram. The area involved would be the top of the parallelogram. Shear stress (often denoted by τ, Greek: tau) is the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. It arises from the shear force, the component of force vector parallel to the material cross section.

  4. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  5. Shear strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_strength

    A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force. When a paper is cut with scissors, the paper fails in shear.

  6. Shearing (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    The shear center (also known as the torsional axis) is an imaginary point on a section, where a shear force can be applied without inducing any torsion. In general, the shear center is not the centroid. For cross-sectional areas having one axis of symmetry, the shear center is located on the axis of symmetry.

  7. Shear thinning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_thinning

    Shear thinning in a polymeric system: dependence of apparent viscosity on shear rate. η 0 is the zero shear rate viscosity and η ∞ is the infinite shear viscosity plateau. At both sufficiently high and very low shear rates, viscosity of a polymer system is independent of the shear rate.

  8. Shear flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_flow

    The shear center is an imaginary point, but does not vary with the magnitude of the shear force - only the cross-section of the structure. The shear center always lies along the axis of symmetry, and can be found using the following method: [3] Apply an arbitrary resultant shear force; Calculate the shear flows from this shear force

  9. Stress resultants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_resultants

    As a consequence the three traction components that vary from point to point in a cross-section can be replaced with a set of resultant forces and resultant moments. These are the stress resultants (also called membrane forces, shear forces, and bending moment) that may be used to determine the detailed stress state in the structural element. A ...
