The accurate representation of nitrogen-containing heterocycles is essential for modeling biological systems. In this study, the general effective fragment potential (EFP2) method is used to model dimers of benzene and pyridine, complexes for which high-level theoretical data -including large basis spin-component-scaled second-order perturbation theory (SCS-MP2), symmetry-adapted perturbation t...

This article provides a fully analytical approach for nonlinear equilibrium path of rectangular sandwich plates. The core of structure is made of symmetric cross-ply laminated composite and the outer surfaces are piezoelectric actuators which perfectly bonded to inner core. The structure is subjected to electro-thermo-mechanical loads simultaneously. One side of plate is rested on Pasternak typ...

Based on the third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT), this paper numerically investigates the natural frequencies and time response of three-layered annular plate with functionally graded materials (FGMs) sheet core and piezoelectric face sheets, under initial external electric voltage. The impressive material specifications of FGM core are assumed to vary continuously across the plate thic...

Lightweight blades with high strength are urgently needed in practical rotor engineering. Sandwich structures porous core and reinforced surfaces commonly applied to achieve these mechanical performances. Moreover, large aspect ratios established by the elastic plate models theory. This paper studies vibration of a rotating sandwich pre-twist setting angle graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs). Its is ...
