| shear | 1. To cut, clip, or sever anything from with shears or a like instrument; as, to shear sheep; to shear cloth. It is especially applied to the cutting of wool from sheep or their skins, and the nap from cloth. 2. To separate or sever with shears or a similar instrument; to cut off; to clip (something) from a surface; as, to shear a fleece. "Before the golden tresses . . . Were shorn away." (Shak) 3. To reap, as grain. 4. To deprive of property; to fleece. 5. <mechanics> To produce a change of shape in by a shear. See Shear. Origin: Sheared or Shore; Sheared or Shorn; Shearing] [OE. Sheren, scheren, to shear, cut, shave, AS. Sceran, scieran, scyran; akin to D. & G. Scheren, Icel. Skera, Dan. Skire, Gr. Cf. Jeer, Score, Shard, Share, Sheer to turn aside. 1. A pair of shears; now always used in the plural, but formerly also in the singular. See Shears. "On his head came razor none, nor shear." (Chaucer) "Short of the wool, and naked from the shear." (Dryden) 2. A shearing; used in designating the age of sheep. "After the second shearing, he is a two-sher ram; . . . at the expiration of another year, he is a three-shear ram; the name always taking its date from the time of shearing." (Youatt) 3. <engineering> An action, resulting from applied forces, which tends to cause two contiguous parts of a body to slide relatively to each other in a direction parallel to their plane of contact; also called shearing stress, and tangential stress. 4. <mechanics> A strain, or change of shape, of an elastic body, consisting of an extension in one direction, an equal compression in a perpendicular direction, with an unchanged magnitude in the third direction. Shear blade, one of the blades of shears or a shearing machine. Shear hulk. See Hulk. Shear steel, a steel suitable for shears, scythes, and other cutting instruments, prepared from fagots of blistered steel by repeated heating, rolling, and tilting, to increase its malleability and fineness of texture. Origin: AS. Sceara. See Shear. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| shear fields | <radiobiology> As used in plasma physics, this refers to magnetic fields having a rotational transform (or, alternatively, safety factor) that changes with radius (for example, in the stellarator concept, magnetic fields that increase in pitch with distance from the magnetic axis.) (09 Oct 1997) |
| shear flow | A flow of a material in which parallel planes in the material are displaced in a direction parallel to each other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shear rate | The change in velocity of parallel planes in a flowing fluid separated by unit distance; its units expressed in seconds-1. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shear stress | The force acting in shear flow expressed per unit area; units in the CGS system: dynes/cm2. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shearbill | <zoology> The black skimmer. See Skimmer. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| sheared flow | <radiobiology> Fluid flow where the magnitude of the fluid velocity changes along a direction perpedicular to the direction of the fluid flow. (Freeway traffic often exhibits sheared flow in that traffic in the fast lane moves more rapidly than traffic in the slow lane with the exits.) Sheared flow typically correlates with reduced transport and enhanced confinement. (This definition is rather informal and may not be fully technically correct - R.F. Heeter) (09 Oct 1997) |
| shearing | 1. The act or operation of clipping with shears or a shearing machine, as the wool from sheep, or the nap from cloth. 2. The product of the act or operation of clipping with shears or a shearing machine; as, the whole shearing of a flock; the shearings from cloth. 3. Same as Shearling. 4. The act or operation of reaping. 5. The act or operation of dividing with shears; as, the shearing of metal plates. 6. The process of preparing shear steel; tilting. 7. <chemical> The process of making a vertical side cutting in working into a face of coal. Shearing machine. A machine with blades, or rotary disks, for dividing plates or bars of metal. A machine for shearing cloth. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| shearing edge | The part of an anterior tooth farthest from the apex of the root. Synonym: margo incisalis, cutting edge, incisal margin, incisal surface, shearing edge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| shears | 1. A cutting instrument. Specifically: An instrument consisting of two blades, commonly with bevel edges, connected by a pivot, and working on both sides of the material to be cut, used for cutting cloth and other substances. "Fate urged the shears, and cut the sylph in twain." (Pope) A similar instrument the blades of which are extensions of a curved spring, used for shearing sheep or skins. A shearing machine; a blade, or a set of blades, working against a resisting edge. 2. Anything in the form of shears. Specifically: A pair of wings. An apparatus for raising heavy weights, and especially for stepping and unstepping the lower masts of ships. It consists of two or more spars or pieces of timber, fastened together near the top, steadied by a guy or guys, and furnished with the necessary tackle. Alternative forms: sheers. 3. <machinery> The bedpiece of a machine tool, upon which a table or slide rest is secured; as, the shears of a lathe or planer. Origin: Formerly used also in the singular.

| shearwater | <ornithology> Any one of numerous species of long-winged oceanic birds of the genus Puffinus and related genera. They are allied to the petrels, but are larger. The Manx shearwater (P. Anglorum), the dusky shearwater (P. Obscurus), and the greater shearwater (P. Major), are well-known species of the North Atlantic. See Hagdon. Origin: Shear + water; cf. G. Wassersherer; so called from its running lightly along the surface of the water. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| accumulating shear | A feller-buncher shearhead that is capable of accumulating and holding 2 or more cut stems. (05 Dec 1998) |
