SHEAR STRENGTH

Specialty Definition: SHEAR STRENGTH

DomainDefinition

Aerospace

In materials, the stress required to produce fracture in the plane of cross section, the conditions of loading being such that the directions of force and of resistance are parallel and opposite although their paths are offset a specified minimum amount. (references)

Mining

A. The stress or load at which a material fails in shear b. A measure of the shear value of a fluid. Also a measure of the gelling properties of a fluid c. The internal resistance of a body to shear stress, typically including a frictional part and a part independent of friction called cohesio. (references)

Danish

  

den plastiske flydning af metallet finder sted,naar forskydningsstyrken langs visse gitterplaner bliver overskredet;der sker en glidning langs disse glideplaner i den retning,der har den taetteste atompakning,hvilket i ferrit er langs rumdiagonalen (plastic flow in metals is produced when the shear strength is exceeded on certain lattice planes. Slip then occurs along these slip planes in the direction of greatest atomic-density, which in the case of ferrite is the cube diagonal). (various references)

   

Dutch

  

plastische vloei in metalen wordt veroorzaakt als de afschuifsterkte in één van de roostervlakken wordt overschreden.Op dat moment treedt glijden langs deze glijvlakken op in de richting van de grootste atoomdichtheid;bij ferriet is dit de diagonaal van (plastic flow in metals is produced when the shear strength is exceeded on certain lattice planes. Slip then occurs along these slip planes in the direction of greatest atomic-density, which in the case of ferrite is the cube diagonal). (various references)

   

French

  

l'écoulement plastique des métaux se produit lorsque la résistance au cisaillement est dépassé dans certains plans réticulaires: un glissement a lieu le long de ces plans de glissement dans la direction de plus grande densité atomique, qui est pour (plastic flow in metals is produced when the shear strength is exceeded on certain lattice planes. Slip then occurs along these slip planes in the direction of greatest atomic-density). (various references)

   

German

  

das plastische Fliessen des Metalls wird erzeugt, wenn die Scherfestigkeit in manchen Atomebenen ueberschritten wird: es findet eine Gleitung entlang dieser Gleitebenen in der Richtung der groessten Atomdichte, die bei Ferrit die Diagonale des Wuerfels is (plastic flow in metals is produced when the shear strength is exceeded on certain lattice planes. Slip then occurs along these slip planes in the direction of greatest atomic-density, which in the case of ferrite is the cube diagonal). (various references)

   

Italian

  

Lo scorrimento plastico del metallo si produce quando viene superata in alcuni piani atomici la resistenza al taglio : ha luogo allora uno slittamento lungo questi piani di scorrimento nella direzione della massima densit atomica, che nel caso della fer (plastic flow in metals is produced when the shear strength is exceeded on certain lattice planes. Slip then occurs along these slip planes in the direction of greatest atomic-density, which in the case of ferrite is the cube diagonal). (various references)
