Shear waves travel perpendicular to the direction of particle motion, which results in the particle motion being parallel to the wave's direction. The energy of a shear wave is mainly associated with the shearing or twisting motion of particles in the medium, as opposed to the compression and expansion seen in longitudinal waves.
In a shear wave, the energy is carried perpendicular to the direction of particle motion. The particle motion in shear waves involves particles moving in a side-to-side or up-and-down direction, while the energy is propagated horizontally or vertically.
Shear waves transfer energy perpendicular to the direction of particle motion. As the particles move horizontally, the energy is transmitted vertically. This causes the material to shear or deform sideways as the wave propagates through it.
Magnetic force does not do any work because it acts perpendicular to the direction of motion of the charged particle. Work is defined as force acting in the direction of motion, and since magnetic force acts perpendicular to the motion, it does not transfer energy to the particle in the form of work.
The energy possessed by a particle due to its motion is called kinetic energy. It depends on the mass of the particle and its velocity.
Work = change in Kinetic Energy Because friction acts in the opposite direction of the motion of an object, kinetic energy must be decreased in order to maintain the above equation. Friction opposes motion. Friction converts the kinetic energy of a particle into heat and sound.

The particle motion in shear waves relative to the energy of the wave is downward.

Particle motion increases as energy (like heat) is added. The motion slows as energy leaves. Temperature is a measure of this change in particle motion.
When a charged particle enters a uniform magnetic field, its kinetic energy remains constant. This is because the magnetic field exerts a force perpendicular to the particle's velocity, which changes the direction of the particle's motion but does not work on it. As a result, the speed of the particle—and thus its kinetic energy—remains unchanged, leading to circular or helical motion.

Particle motion and thermal heat energy should both be increasing
No, the speed of a particle cannot be negative. Speed is a scalar quantity and is always positive, representing the magnitude of the velocity of an object. Negative values are used to represent the direction of motion in one-dimensional motion.
The measure of energy of motion of a particle of matter is called kinetic energy. It is calculated using the formula KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2, where mass is the mass of the particle and velocity is its speed.
When energy decreases, the particle motion usually slows down. This can manifest as a decrease in kinetic energy and a reduction in the speed at which particles move.
