Stress Distribution Investigation at the Tapered Sandwich Endings

Applications of higher order shear deformation theories on stress distribution in a five layer sandwich plate

In this paper, layerwise theory (LT) along with the first, second and third-order shear deformation theories (FSDT, SSDT and TSDT) are used to determine the stress distribution in a simply supported square sandwich plate subjected to a uniformly distributed load. Two functionally graded (FG) face sheets encapsulate an elastomeric core while two epoxy adhesive layers adhere the core to the face ...

Numerical investigation of variable uplift distribution at the level of landslide-induced acceleration at the concrete dam body crack position

The study of seismic behavior of concrete dams has been considered by many researchers due to the importance of dam safety during earthquakes. Because the destruction of these structures by earthquakes can have adverse economic and social effects. On the other hand, predicting the behavior of concrete dams during an earthquake is one of the most complex and difficult issues in structural dynami...

Flexural-torsional stability of sandwich tapered I-beams with a functionally graded porous core

The present research deals with the flexural-torsional buckling analysis of sandwich web and/or flanges tapered doubly-symmetric I-beam. All section walls are composed of two metal face layers and a functionally graded (FG) porous core. It is assumed that the material properties of the porous core vary gradually in the longitudinal direction according to the simple power-law function considerin...

Investigation of the Microscopic Aspect of the Stress Distribution in the Accumulative Roll Bonding Process Using the Slab Method

The accumulative roll bonding (ARB) as a severe plastic deformation (SPD) procedure aimed at enhancing the mechanical properties of metals and alloys. In the present study, a new slab method is proposed for estimating the forming stress field for cold extrusion of metals cross the alumina interlayer powder particles by accumulative roll bonding process. Plastic deformation behavior of the metal...
