shear strain [′shir ‚strān]
(mechanics)
Also known as shear.
A deformation of a solid body in which a plane in the body is displaced parallel to itself relative to parallel planes in the body; quantitatively, it is the displacement of any plane relative to a second plane, divided by the perpendicular distance between planes.
The force causing such deformation.

shear strain, shearing strain
A deformation in a structural member (measured in radians) resulting from the application of a force in a plane (or line) of a cross section of the member, perpendicular to the length of the beam.

The results show ratcheting strain and its rate rise with the increase of the axial stress and shear strain amplitude for polymer materials.
3) Clech in 2004 analyzed some published data (see Figure 1 online) expressing the correlations of characteristic life to cyclic shear strain range for bare chip assemblies for SnCu, SnPb and SAC assemblies by trendlines.
The RPA 2000 has the advantage of using a biconical test cavity that has a uniform shear field with minimal edge effects, and that contains a rubber sample under pressure even at high shear strains and high frequencies.
