What is pseudo-plastics?

Pseudo plasticity discusses to the decrease of viscosity when shear forces are applied. The tougher the shear stress the pseudo plastic material is subjected to, the tougher the shear thinning effect and the tougher the reduction in viscosity.

Why is wind shear dangerous to aircraft?

Wind shear, sometimes referred to as windshear or wind gradient, is a difference in wind speed and direction over a relatively short distance in the atmosphere. If the direction is downward, it can cause an abrupt drop in altitude for a plane before the pilot can compensate. Any sudden significant change in wind direction can cause a loss of control for an airplane, potentially causing it to crash. Some wind shear can be strong enough to cause structural damage to the aircraft.


The difference between shear force diagram and shear force influence line diagram?

A shear force diagram is used to give the value of shear force at any point on the beam due to static load while the influence line gives the effect of a moving load at any point on the beam. Abdul Nafay Achakzai


What is the significance of shear center?

It is very important to find the shear center for the beams or sections that are undergoing majority of the load under torsion or twisting then the material will not fail under torsion as at shear centre there will be no effect of torsion or twisting. It will fail only by bending or any other force.
