Sandwich panel with central core honeycomb aluminum as one of the main shielding structures because of their high strength-to-weight ratio and improved energy absorption capacity, has been attracted the attention of many researchers and practitioners in recent years. This paper initiates and presents a new type of central core honeycomb formed by hydroforming process. The study is augmented by ...

The present article investigates the thermoelastic interaction in a three-dimensional homogeneous and isotropic sandwich structure using the dual-phase-lag (DPL) model of generalized thermoelasticity. The incorporated resulting non-dimensional coupled equations are applied to a specific problem in which a sandwich layer of unidentical homogeneous and isotropic substances is subjected to time-de...

This paper deals with the nonlinear buckling and post-buckling of sandwich cylindrical panels non-uniform porous core functionally graded face sheets. The imperfect are subjected to axial loading on elastic foundation. Based Donnell shell theory, von Kármán geometrical nonlinearity, governing equations derived. effects foundation, various panel characteristics, porosity parameters, thickness in...

This study introduces the free vibration analysis of multilayered symmetric sandwich Timoshenko beams, made of functionally graded materials with two edge cracked, using the finite element method and linear elastic fracture mechanic theory. The FG beam consists of 50 layers, located symmetrically to the neutral plane, whose material properties distribution change along the beam thickness, accor...

A comparative study of different modeling approaches for predicting sandwich panel buckling response is described. The study considers sandwich panels with anisotropic face sheets and a very thick core. Results from conventional analytical solutions for sandwich panel overall buckling and face-sheet-wrinkling type modes are compared with solutions obtained using different finite element modelin...

As I take the queuing system course, I become interested in the queuing systems in our life, for example, the cafeteria in the school. In this project, I want to model an interesting queuing system I observed in some cafeteria on campus, and study the behaviour and performance of the queuing system at the cafeteria. When I go to the Jazz Café in Darrin Communications Center, I noticed that ther...

Web-reinforced composite sandwich panels exhibit good mechanical properties in one-way bending, but few studies have investigated their flexural behavior and deformation calculation methods under conditions of four simply supported edges. This paper studies the bending performance of and deformation calculation methods for two-way web-reinforced composite sandwich panels with different web spac...

Estimating equations have found wide popularity recently in parametric problems, yielding consistent estimators with asymptotically valid inferences obtained via the sandwich formula. Motivated by a problem in nutritional epidemiology, we use estimating equations to derive nonparametric estimators of a \parameter" depending on a predictor. The nonparametric component is estimated via local poly...
