resists the shear vs bears the shear

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'Resists the shear' is commonly used in engineering or material science contexts to describe the ability of a material to withstand shear forces. On the other hand, 'bears the shear' is less common and may be used in a more poetic or metaphorical sense.
