The migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells (VEC), which play an important role in vascular remodeling, are known to be regulated by hemodynamic forces in the blood vessels. When shear stresses of 2, 6, 15 dynes/$cm^2$ are applied on mouse micro-VEC in vitro, cells surprisingly migrate against the flow direction at all conditions. While higher flow rate imposes more resistance against the cells, reducing their migration speed, the horizontal component of the velocity parallel to the flow increases with the flow rate, indicating the higher alignment of cells in the direction parallel to the flow at a higher shear stress. In addition, cells exhibit substrate stiffness and calcium dependent migration behavior, which can be explained by polarized remodeling in the mechanosensitive pathway under shear stress.

The present article discusses the effect of the ratio of bridge surface to total shear surface, number of bridge areas and normal stress on the failure behavior of the planar non-persistent open joints. Totally, 38 models were prepared using plaster and dimensions of $15cm{\times}15cm{\times}15cm$. The bridge area occupied $45cm^2$, $90cm^2$ and $135cm^2$ out of the shear surface. The number of rock bridges increase in fixed area. Two similar samples were prepared on every variation in the rock bridges and tested for direct shear strength under two high and low normal loads. The results indicated that the failure pattern and the failure mechanism is mostly influenced by the ratio of bridge surface to total shear surface and normal stress so that the tensile failure mode change to shear failure mode by increasing in the value of introduced parameters. Furthermore, the shear strength and shear stiffness are closely related to the ratio of bridge surface to total shear surface, number of bridge areas and normal stress.

벽면 난류의 항력과 밀접한 관련이 있는 유동구조를 조사하기 위해 $Re_{\tau}$ = 180, 395, 590 의 난류채널유동에 대한 직접수치모사를 수행하였다. 확률밀도함수를 조사하여 레이놀즈 전단응력에 가장 큰 기여를 하는 Q2 이벤트를 파악하였으며 Q2 이벤트의 각도의 변화가 $y^+<50$ 에서는 벽 단위로 스케일링되며, y/h > 0.5 에서는 채널의 높이로 스케일링 됨을 확인하였다. Q2 이벤트를 조건으로 하는 조건부 평균 유동장을 조사하여 레이놀즈 전단응력의 발생과 관련이 있는 유동구조는 주 유동방향의 보텍스 및 헤어핀 형상의 보텍스임을 보였다. 또한, 순간 유동장을 관찰하여 높은 레이놀즈 전단 응력의 분포가 이러한 보텍스 구조와 관련이 있으며 1.5 ~ 3h 의 크기를 갖는 대형유동구조를 구성함을 확인하였다.

본 논문은 호안용 매트리스내 채움재의 한계_허용 전단응력을 제시하였다. 먼저, 매트리스가 설치된 수로에서 유수력이 작용할 때 각 지점에 대한 유효전단응력을 산정하였다. 다음으로, 입자들의 한계운동을 결정하는데 주로 사용되는 Shields 계수와 전단응력을 이용한 채움재의 평균입경을 산정하였다. 마지막으로, 산정된 각 인자들을 근거로 철망내 개별 암석의 안정조건을 만족시키는 한계_허용 전단응력의 범위를 결정하였다. 또한 매트리스와 사석의 비교를 통해 매트리스의 거동에 관한 안정성을 규명하면서 안정적인 수리구조물임을 입증하였다. 따라서 동일 한계전단 응력에 대한 소요 평균입경은 사석이 매트리스보다 대략 3배 정도 더 크다. 이와 반대로 동일 크기의 암석이 주어질 때 매트리스는 사석보다 3배 정도 더 큰 전단응력에도 저항할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

Many laboratory experiments on crack propagation under uniaxial loading and biaxial loading have been conducted in the past using transparent materials such as resin, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), etc. However, propagation behaviors of three-dimensional (3D) cracks in rock or rock-like materials under tri-axial loading are often considerably different. In this study, a series of true tri-axial loading tests on the rock-like material with two semi-ellipse pre-existing cracks were performed in laboratory to investigate the acoustic emission (AE) characteristics and propagation characteristics of 3D crack groups influenced by intermediate principal stress. Compared with previous experiments under uniaxial loading and biaxial loading, the tests under true tri-axial loading showed that shear cracks, anti-wing cracks and secondary cracks were the main failure mechanisms, and the initiation and propagation of tensile cracks were limited. Shear cracks propagated in the direction parallel to pre-existing crack plane. With the increase of intermediate principal stress, the critical stress of crack initiation increased gradually, and secondary shear cracks may no longer coalesce in the rock bridge. Crack aperture decreased with the increase of intermediate principal stress, and the failure is dominated by shear fracturing. There are two stages of fracture development: stable propagation stage and unstable failure stage. The AE events occurred in a zone parallel to pre-existing crack plane, and the AE zone increased gradually with the increase of intermediate principal stress, eventually forming obvious shear rupture planes. This shows that shear cracks initiated and propagated in the pre-existing crack direction, forming a shear rupture plane inside the specimens. The paths of fracturing inside the specimens were observed using the Computerized Tomography (CT) scanning and reconstruction.

Prediction on initial motion of sediment is crucial to evaluate sediment transport and channel stability. The condition of incipient movement of sediment is characterized by bed shear stress, which is generated from force of moving water against the bed of the channel, and by critical shear stress, which depends on force resisting motion of sediment due to the submerged weight of the grains. When the bed shear stress exceeds the critical shear stress, sediment particles begin rolling and sliding at isolated and random locations. In Mountain River, debris flow frequently occurs due to heavy rainfall and can lead some natural stones from mountain slope into the bed river. This phenomenon could add additional forces to sediment transport system in the bed of river and also affect or change direction and magnitude of sediment movement. In this paper, evaluations on incipient motion of uniform coarse gravel under falling spheres impacts using small scale flume channel were conducted. The drag force of falling spheres due to water flow and length movement of falling spheres were investigated. The experiments were carried out in flume channel made by glass wall and steel floor with 12 m long, 0.6 m wide, and 0.6 m deep. The bed slopes were selected with the range from 0.7% to 1.5%. The thickness of granular layer was at least 3 times of diameter of granular particle to meet grain placement condition. The sphere diameters were chosen to be 4cm, 6 cm, 8 cm, 10 cm. The spheres were fallen in to the bed channel for critical condition and under critical condition of motion particle. Based on the experimental results, the Shields curve of particles Reynold number and dimensionless critical shear stress were plotted. The relationship between with drag force and the length movement of spheres were plotted. The pathways of the bed material Under the impact of spheres falling were analyzed.

The fatigue behavior of welded open rib-to crossbeam joints (ORCJ) in orthotropic bridge structures is investigated using a traction structural stress method. The fatigue behaviors of welded open rib-to crossbeam joints have been a subject of study for decades for ensuring operational safety and future design improvement. A mesh-insensitive combination of traction structural stresses in ORCJ was obtained considering the effect of in-plane shear stress and validated by fatigue test results. The proposed method is advantageous for predicting fatigue cracks that initiate from the crossbeam cutout and propagate along the crossbeam. The investigations carried out with the proposed approach reveal that the normal structural stress decreases with the propagation of fatigue cracks, while the ratio of shear stress to normal stress increases. The effect of shear structural stress is significant for the analysis of fatigue behavior of ORCJ in multiaxial stress states.

This paper presents a detailed study focused on investigating the effects of silt content on the static and dynamic properties of sand-silt mixtures. Specimens with a low-plastic silt content of 0, 15, 30 and 50% by weight were tested in static triaxial, cyclic triaxial, and resonant columns in addition to consolidation tests to determine such parameters as compression index, internal friction angle, cohesion, cyclic stress ratio, maximum shear modulus, normalized shear modulus and damping ratio. The test procedures were performed on specimens of three cases: constant void ratio index, e = 0.582; same peak deviator stress of 290 kPa; and constant relative density, $D_r$ = 30%. The test results obtained for both the constant-void-ratio-index and constant-relative-density specimens showed that as silt content increased, the internal friction angle, cyclic stress ratio and maximum shear modulus decreased, but cohesion increased. In testing of the same deviator stress specimens, both cohesion and internal friction angle were insignificantly altered with the increase in silt content. In addition, as silt content increased, the maximum shear modulus increased. The cyclic stress ratio first decreased as silt content increased to reach the threshold silt content and increased thereafter with further increases in silt content. Furthermore, the damping ratio was investigated based on different silt contents in three types of specimens.

In this study, anisotropically consolidated undrained shear(CAU) test was performed to examine the variation of the shear strength according to the stress history. The specimen having 30% relative density was homogeniously prepared, and 200KPa of back pressure was applied to increase the B value more than 0.95. To make NC specimens, the vertical stress was applied on the specimen by 100KPa, 200KPa and 400KPa, and to make OC specimens, the vertical stress was applied upto 400KPa and was reduced to 200KPa and 100KPa resulting in OCR 2 and 4 respectively. The test result indicates the shear strength for the OC specimens are slightly higher then that of the NC specimens at the same confining pressure. The elastic modulus varies according to the confining stress and considerably affected by preconsolidation stress.
