NEW ORLEANS, LA—Low endothelial shear stress (ESS) independently predicts progressive lumen obstruction in a low-risk Japanese population. Areas of low ESS showed increased local plaque thickness and ...

This study presents valuable findings on the role of KLF6 in in vitro endothelial cells exposed to altered (high or low) shear stress with a customized microfluidic device to investigate mechanisms of ...

Dutch researchers report that in mice, different types of shear stress induce the production of different soluble factors known as chemokines, and that the chemokine expression pattern influences the ...

In a world where software analysis has taken over, let us take a history lesson to remember what makes our finite-element-analysis (FEA) software tick. Morh’s circle is just a graphical representation ...

One theory that is used for the prediction of failure in a ductile material is the maximum shear stress theory (MSS). The basis of this theory is that failure will occur when the maximum shear stress ...

Keywords: Earthquake Engineering; Steel; Plate; Shear; Wall; Inclination angle; Tension; Field; LS-DYNA Abstract: Research was conducted to investigate how the inclination angle of the diagonal ...

Models that inform how magma moves and volcanic eruptions unfold may need an update, according to a new study. It reports that gas bubbles in magmas ...
