Physics|Solid State) STRESS FLUCTUATIONS IN CONTINUOUSLY SHEARED GRANULAR MEDIA by Brian J. Miller Department of Physics Duke University

We describe the effects of both magnetic buoyancy and differential rotation on a disc of isothermal gas embedded in a purely azimuthal magnetic field, in order to study the evolution and interplay of Parker and shearing instabilities. We perform a linear analysis of the evolution of perturbations in the shearing sheet model. Both instabilities occur on the slow MHD branch of the dispersion rela...

Coefficients of correlation between certain physical properties and the histological components of the break area were calculated on an IBM 7090 computer for 56 femoral, 79 tibial and 37 fibular specimens of embalmed cortical bone of standardized size and shape. Strong positive correlations (0.01-0.02 significance level) were found between tensile strength and the percentage of interstitial lam...

bond failure of brackets during orthodontic treatment is a common problem; which results in treatment interference, increased treatment time and prolonged clinical time for rebonding of failed brackets. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of coca-cola and a non-alcoholic beer on the shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index (ari) of orthodontic metal brackets in vitro.eig...
