Shear stability criteria

Obviously, this approach does not only take into consideration the influence of the molecular weight and concentration, but also the contribution of the solvent power on the state of solution. With these shear stability criteria, it is therefore possible to make ad hoc predictions on the basis of the data of the single chain, which can be taken from handbooks in many cases. In addition, it should be noted that theoretical forecasts fit the experimental data very satisfactorily (Kulicke, Kniewske 1986). 

The relationship between final viscosity and original viscosity as a function of time and effective distance covered respectively serves as the criterion of the shear stability of the product under investigation.

The maximum principle stress theory (Rankine s theory) states that the largest principle stress component, 03, in the material determines failure regardless of the value of normal or shearing stresses. The stability criterion is formulated as... 

While a purely hydrodynamic source for turbulence has not yet been demonstrated, the situation is much different when MHD effects are considered in a shearing, Keplerian disk. In this case, the Rayleigh criterion for stability can be shown to be irrelevant provided only that the angular velocity of the disk decreases with radius, even an infinitesimal magnetic field will grow at the expense of the shear motions. 

The so-called potential can be taken as a first estimate for the surface potential. The potential is the electrostatic potential at the hydrodynamic shear plane close to the particle surface. It can be determined from electrophoretic mobility measurements of the particles in an electric field (see for example Ref. [23]). The potential is zero when the charge within the shear plane is zero. This is the case as the surface charge plus the charge due to adsorbed ions other than hydrogen (for example AIOH2 in the case of alumina suspensions) is zero. This point is the iso-electro-point (i.e.p.) of the material in the dispersion medium. The suspension pH with respect to the i.e.p. is an important criterion for a first judgement of possible electrostatic stability. 

Shear strength reduction technique is also named as Strength Reduction Method (SRM), which is used in the stability analysis of slop. The essence of SRM is that the power parameters of geotechnical material (c, q>) decrease and slopes failure appear. At the condition of gravity force, Griffiths 0999) deduce the SRM formula of the slope and build the failure criterion. For pile foundation, the external force is transferred by the complex soil-pile interaction, the theory of pile foundation of SRM is different from slope of SRM, so the estimation of ultimate loading may need to revise or build the new limit analysis theory. 

Rheological experiments were used by Wittmar et al. (2012) for the stability analysis of functionalised nanoparticles in ionic liquid. The authors examined viscosity curves (i.e. viscosity vs. shear rate) as well as viscoelastic properties for suspensions of varying particle concentration but identical preparation history. The qualitative criterion for destabilisation was whether the suspensions did gel, i.e. whether the storage modulus G was smaller the loss modulus G". A different approach was proposed by Vogelsberger et al. (2000), who studied the nucleation and aggregation kinetics of silica, synthesised via TEOS (tetraethyl-orthosilicate) condensation and precipitation. For that purpose, the viscosity and the viscoelastic moduli were continuously monitored. The latter data were i. a. used to derive the rate of aggregation. 

Foam was completely different from gel fracturing fluid. Foam fracturing fluid could not be measured as gel fracturing fluid criterion such as temperature resistance property, shear resistance property, conductivity property, etc. Other properties of foam fracturing fluid were evaluated by interior experiment. Foam fracturing fluid formulations were the mass fraction of 0.3% fluorocarbon surfactant AS-3, the mass fraction of 0.4% viscoelastic surfactant VES-A as a foam stabilizer, 0.5% DW clay stabilizer and water. 

Since no minimum B exists in the spheromak configuration, the pressure gradient driven modes must be stabilized by magnetic shear. The beta-limit due to local modes has been investigated by using the Mercier criterion [21],... 

There is a contradiction between the low-shear limit of the Mercier criterion for a helical magnetic field and the closed--line criterion of a purely poloidal field. This apparent paradox was solved by Grad and Shafranov and Frolenkov who showed that the unstable spectrum either moves to high wave numbers where MHD theory does not apply, or that finite inertia decreases the growth rate to zero. The closed-line criterion predicts MHD stability under rather general conditions, in some cases even without shear and conducting walls. 

The limit equilibrium methods forming the framework of slope stability/instability analysis generally accept the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion, which can be expressed in terms of effective or total stresses. The Mohr-Coulomb shear strength in terms of effective stresses is as follows ... 

The criterion (9.6) shows that amorphous glassy polymers yielding process is controlled by cluster structure stability loss (for more details see chapter four) and the condition of transition from shear to crazing can be written as follows [20] ... 

With the purpose of estabhshing a criterion of stability of composite Pd membranes based on the thickness of the metal layer, an assessment of the shear stresses can be performed for the two cases of ceramic and metal supports. The thermal strain of the ceramic support is assumed to be negligible, 0 (i.e., infinite stiffness of the ceramic material), whereas the thermal strain of the metal support is postulated to be equal to that of nonhydrogenated Pd-Ag, pd-Ag-...
