Use kitchen shears to trim the excess pastry from the lattice right at the edge of the pie filling (this gap will be covered by a braid, and you don't want too many excess layers of pastry there) and again, reserve the pastry scraps.

Cutting the noodles to size with your kitchen shears, place one layer of noodles in the bottom of the pan on top of the meat mixture.

If there are ripples along the boundary between those layers, the shearing action creates centrifugal forces that swirl the fluids — or bodies of air — together.

Hair shears do what regular scissors can not do: They make a blunt cut, both across the length of your hair and within the layers.

The method uses a shearing mechanism, somewhat like a cheese slicer, to peel off layers of graphene in a way that causes them to roll up into a scroll - like shape, technically known as an Archimedean spiral.

For instance, there are three standard measures of a material's stiffness: One describes its deformation in the direction of an applied force, or how far it can be compressed or stretched; one describes its deformation in directions perpendicular to an applied force, or how much its sides bulge when it's squeezed or contract when it's stretched; and the third measures its response to shear, or a force that causes different layers of the material to shift relative to each other.

The smoke - induced increase in wind speed at an altitude of 1 km enhanced a phenomenon called wind shear, the difference in wind velocity between one layer of the atmosphere and another.

The problem is that these differential equation are based on the theory of thin shear layers.

You know that convection is an ill posed problem because of the turbulent shear layers that play a prominent role.

McNoldy said the conditions are ripe because we're precisely in the middle of hurricane season and there's little wind shear, a condition in which layers of air at different altitudes move at different speeds and which tends to break up hurricanes.

Pierrehumbert RT, and S. E. Widnall 1982: The two and three dimensional instabilities of a spatially periodic free shear layer.

Pierrehumbert RT, and S. E. Widnall 1981: The structure of organized vortices in a free shear layer.

This flow exerts a shearing stress on the ocean surface, which results in the deflection of the upper layer of water above the thermocline to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere.

Measurements provide evidence for the entrainment of NSTM - layer heat in fall / winter 2007 — 08 by shear - driven mixing, and convective mixing by the release of dense, salty plumes during sea - ice growth.

«But there are other factors involved, such as vertical wind shear, which is the difference between the upper and lower layers of the atmosphere.

back to the horizontal gradient, if the upper tropospheric thermal wind shear increase is greater than the decrease of the lower layer, then maybe the overall baroclinic instability would be stronger — but currently the upper level eddy circulations do not transport much heat poleward, so would the structure of cyclones change so that a deeper layer of air is involved in the thermal advection, compensating for a weaker temperature gradient?
