In this work, we mathematically derive the conditions for which empirical rheometric relations such as Cox–Merz rule and Gleissle mirror relationship are satisfied. We consider Wagner integral constitutive framework, is a special limiting case of Kaye–Bernstein Kearsley Zapas (K-BKZ) equation to analytical expressions complex viscosity, steady shear transient stress coefficient in start-up shea...

the shear strength and shear energy per unit area, as well as the force and energy required for picking flowers, are important parameters in the design and development of harvesting mechanisms. in this study, shear strength and shear energy per unit area of saffron (crocus sativus l.) stems were determined at different bevel angles and shear velocities. the force and energy required for picking...

the steel shear wall and composite steel plate shear wall is introduced in recent three decade and is considered and is spread rapidly. composite steel plate shear wall which is made of a layer of thin steel sheet with coating of reinforced concrete in one or both sides of steel palate is considered a third generation of resistance shear walls against lateral loads that in addition to increasin...

the mechanical behaviour of rockfill materials and aggregates depends not only on particle size and compaction, but also on their strength and lithological properties. in this research two types of large triaxial and direct shear tests are performed on rockfill materials. this paper compares the stress-strain behaviour of sandstone and andesibasalt materials in triaxial compression tests (3006...
