In case of misalignment, the distribution of the shear-and-peel stress is strongly influenced, as shown in O Fig. 21.3 (case II and III), due to the changes of moment value and the compressive local deformation of the block (this effect can be regarded as a compression that irradiates from the contact point). 

If the contact occurs far from the bond (case II), the bending moment is higher and the peak of peel stress increases, while the local deformation of the block has little influence and the shear stress is not much affected. Conversely, if the contact occurs close to the bond (case 111), the combination of low bending moment and compressive local deformation of the block causes a compressive peel stress in the adhesive close to the impacted bond end. At the same time, the local deformation of the block increases the differential straining at the same bond end, which causes a higher peak of shear stress. 

An important aspect of the stabilization of emulsions by adsorbed films is that of the role played by the film in resisting the coalescence of two droplets of inner phase. Such coalescence involves a local mechanical compression at the point of encounter that would be resisted (much as in the approach of two boundary lubricated surfaces discussed in Section XII-7B) and then, if coalescence is to occur, the discharge from the surface region of some of the surfactant material. 

Under compression or shear most polymers show qualitatively similar behaviour. However, under the application of tensile stress, two different defonnation processes after the yield point are known. Ductile polymers elongate in an irreversible process similar to flow, while brittle systems whiten due the fonnation of microvoids. These voids rapidly grow and lead to sample failure [50, 51]- The reason for these conspicuously different defonnation mechanisms are thought to be related to the local dynamics of the polymer chains and to the entanglement network density. 

Molecules are in continuous random motion, and as a result of this, small volume elements within the liquid continuously experience compression or rarefaction such that the local density deviates from the macroscopic average value. If we represent by 6p the difference in density between one such domain and the average, then it is apparent that, averaged over all such fluctuations, 6p = 0 Equal contributions of positive and negative 6 s occur. However, if we consider the average value of 6p, this quantity has a nonzero value. Of these domains of density fluctuation, the following statements can be made ... 

Compressible Vlow. The flow of easily compressible fluids, ie, gases, exhibits features not evident in the flow of substantially incompressible fluid, ie, Hquids. These differences arise because of the ease with which gas velocities can be brought to or beyond the speed of sound and the substantial reversible exchange possible between kinetic energy and internal energy. The Mach number, the ratio of the gas velocity to the local speed of sound, plays a central role in describing such flows. 

Carbon dioxide is used to increase the natural CO2 content of the beer and as counterpressure in tanks and filling machines. It must be free of water and any aroma. The consumption is 0—10 g/L of beer produced. In major breweries, carbon dioxide is bought in bulk, and in many breweries it is common practice to coUect the surplus CO2 from the fermentors to clean, dehumidify, and compress in a local CO2 plant which is easily automated. 

The systematic study of piezochromism is a relatively new field. It is clear that, even within the restricted definition used here, many more systems win be found which exhibit piezochromic behavior. It is quite possible to find a variety of potential appUcations of this phenomenon. Many of them center around the estimation of the pressure or stress in some kind of restricted or localized geometry, eg, under a localized impact or shock in a crystal or polymer film, in such a film under tension or compression, or at the interface between bearings. More generally it conveys some basic information about inter- and intramolecular interactions that is useful in understanding processes at atmospheric pressure as well as under compression. 

These values are determined by experiment. It is, however, by no means a trivial task to measure the lamina compressive and shear strengths (52,53). Also the failure of the first ply of a laminate does not necessarily coincide with the maximum load that the laminate can sustain. In many practical composite laminates first-ply failure may be accompanied by a very small reduction in the laminate stiffness. Local ply-level failures can reduce the stress-raising effects of notches and enhance fatigue performance (54). 

Most often, the Mach number is calculated using the speed of sound evaluated at the local pressure and temperature. When M = 1, the flow is critical or sonic and the velocity equals the local speed of sound. For subsonic flowM < 1 while supersonic flows have M > 1. Compressibility effects are important when the Mach number exceeds 0.1 to 0.2. A common error is to assume that compressibihty effects are always negligible when the Mach number is small. The proper assessment of whether compressibihty is important should be based on relative density changes, not on Mach number. 

The cost of the filter station includes not only the installed cost of the filter itself but also that of all the accessories dedicated to the filtration operation. Examples are feed pumps and storage facihties, precoat tanks, vacuum systems (often a major cost factor for a vacuum filter station), and compressed-air systems. The dehvered cost of the accessories plus the cost of installation of filter and accessories generally is of the same order of magnitude as the dehvered filter cost and commonly is several times as large. Installation costs, of course, must be estimated with reference to local labor costs and site-specific considerations. 

For a shock wave in a solid, the analogous picture is shown schematically in Fig. 2.6(a). Consider a compression wave on which there are two small compressional disturbances, one ahead of the other. The first wavelet moves with respect to its surroundings at the local sound speed of Aj, which depends on the pressure at that point. Since the medium through which it is propagating is moving with respect to stationary coordinates at a particle velocity Uj, the actual speed of the disturbance in the laboratory reference frame is Aj - -Ui- Similarly, the second disturbance advances at fl2 + 2- Thus the second wavelet overtakes the first, since both sound speed and particle velocity increase with pressure. Just as a shallow water wave steepens, so does the shock. Unlike the surf, a shock wave is not subject to gravitational instabilities, so there is no way for it to overturn. 

That this is not always the case should be expected. In fact, if it was not for heterogeneous localization of some flow phenomena, it would be very diflicult to initiate secondary explosives, or to effect shock-induced chemical reactions in solids. Heterogeneous shear deformation in metals has also been invoked as an explanation for a reduction in shear strength in shock compression as compared to quasi-isentropic loading. We present here a brief discussion of some aspects of heterogeneous deformation in shock-loaded solids.

That some enhancement of local temperature is required for explosive initiation on the time scale of shock-wave compression is obvious. Micromechanical considerations are important in establishing detailed cause-effect relationships. Johnson [51] gives an analysis of how thermal conduction and pressure variation also contribute to thermal explosion times.
