VALÁŠEK PETR, MÜLLER MIROSLAV. 2016. Possibilities of Adhesives Filling With Micro-particle Fillers – Lap-shear Tensile Strength. Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 64(1): 195–201. An adhesive bonding can be ranged among technologies of materials bonding which are used in all industrial branches. It plays its important role also in an area of the constructio...

15. Supplementary Notes Project performed in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration; Project Title: Implementation of Research Results Regarding Shear Strength and Stability of Embankments 16. Abstract A number of TxDOT-sponsored studies and research projects have been conducted over the years regarding shear strength and slope stability i...

BACKGROUND The response of endothelial cells to altered flow conditions has been studied extensively. However, the indirect effects of shear stress on medial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) have been less well characterized and a murine model of high shear stress has not been available. MATERIALS AND METHODS The hemodynamic changes that occur in a mouse aorta proximal to an aortocaval fistula (ACF...

Engineering judgement and intuition are vital characteristic of the design profession. Engineering judgement and intuition are developed through experience. This experience is gained by designing a building (working with industry disciplines and the owner); analyzing the building (calculations); being part of the construction process (constructability), and walking through the final product (en...

BACKGROUND For filamentous fungi, the basic growth unit of hyphae usually makes it sensitive to shear stress which is generated from mechanical force and dynamic fluid in bioreactor, and it severely decreases microbial productions. The conventional strategies against shear-sensitive conundrum in fungal fermentation usually focus on adapting agitation, impeller type and bioreactor configuration,...

I present a new algorithm, Curved-sky grAvitational Lensing for Cosmological Light conE simulatioNS (CALCLENS), for efficiently computing weak gravitational lensing shear signals from large N-body light cone simulations over a curved sky. This new algorithm properly accounts for the sky curvature and boundary conditions, is able to produce redshift-dependent shear signals including corrections ...

The only quadrature operator of order two on L2(R) which covaries with orthogonal transforms, in particular rotations is (up to the sign) the Riesz transform. This property was used for the construction of monogenic wavelets and curvelets. Recently, shearlets were applied for various signal processing tasks. Unfortunately, the Riesz transform does not correspond with the shear operation. In thi...

Peat and organic soils commonly occur as extremely soft, unconsolidated surficial deposits that are an integral part of the wetland systems. They may also occur as strata beneath other surficial deposits. These soils are problematic as they are very highly compressible and are of very low shear strength. In countries like Malaysia, peat and organic soils are found in abundance. Utilization of t...
