Arbitrary shear stress (arb.shear stress)
Abbreviation |
Arb.shear stress | ||
---|---|---|---|
Definition in words |
Arbitrary shear stress of component B in system 1 Note: Shear stress is “Force acting tangentially to a surface divided by the area of the surface” IUPAC Gold Book |
||
Definition by equation |
Note: kprocedure is a constant defined by the measurement procedure (there is an approximately proportionality to a kind-of-quantity from the International System of Quantities). |

Result type |
Rational scale |

Unit |
International unit (IU) or procedure defined unit (p.d.u.) (non-SI units) | ||
Special rule(s) in the NPU syntax |
“Procedure” is stated in the specification to the kind-of-property in the NPU definition. “Procedure” indicates that the measurement procedure must be stated somewhere else than the NPU code and there may be difficulties in comparing values for the same NPU code. If the unit is an International Unit (IU), an international certified reference material (e.g. WHO reference material) is specified in the specification to the kind-of-property. If there exist no international certified reference material, the laboratory can specify the unit at the placeholder, procedure defined unit. |

Generic abbreviated form |
NPU54277 B—Coagulum shear strength(heparin indep.); arb.shear stress(surf. and tissue f.induc.coag.; proc.) = ? (p.d.u.) |
NPU54277 Blood—Coagulum shear strength(heparin independent); arbitrary shear stress(surface and tissue factor induced coagulation; procedure) = 25 arbitrary unit | ||
Abbreviated form with a result | NPU54277 B—Coagulum shear strength(heparin indep.); arb.shear stress(surf. and tissue f.induc.coag.; proc.) = 25 arbitrary unit | |
Written expression | The arbitrary shear stress of heparin independent Coagulum shear strength is [25] arbitrary units. The measurement is performed according to a surface and tissue factor induced coagulation procedure defined by the laboratory. | |
