A computer simulation is used to make a detailed study of the stress tensor in a simple shear flow of two-dimensional disks. The stresses are shown to arise from two momentum-transfer mechanisms: the 'streaming’ or kinetic mode. By which momentum is carried by particles are they move through the bulk material: and the collisional mode, by which momentum is transferred from one point to another in the material by interparticle collisions. As might be expected, the results show that the streaming mode dominates at disperse packings and the collisional mode dominates at dense packings. The friction coefficient, the ratio of shear to normal forces, is shown to decrease at high particle packing for both the collisional and streaming modes of transport. Normal-stress differences are observed within the shear plane and are evident in both the streaming and collisonal parts.
TEAS and AEC treatments could improve basal endocrine levels in patients, and increase the number of oocytes retrieved and high-quality embryos. TEAS treatment could improve the clinical pregnancy rate in patients with decreased ovarian reserve during in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer cycles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
