The title coordination polymer, {[Ag2(C6H5N2O)(C6H6N2O)2]NO3} n , features a deprotonated N-(pyridin-4-yl-methyl-idene)hy-droxy-laminate anion and two neutral N-(pyridin-4-yl-methyl-idene)hydroxyl-amine mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The anion connects three Ag(I) atoms through its O and two N-donor atoms. One neutral ligand functions in a monodentate mode; the other functions in a bridging...

This article contains derivation of propagation factors and Fourier series for harmonically time varying, traveling electromagnetic fields in a plate and a laminate with rectangular cross sections, isotropic materials and infinite length. Different and quite general fields are taken into account on all boundaries. Choices of boundary conditions and continuity conditions are discussed. Certain c...

Composites show two distinctive features that affect the way in which they are optimized. Firstly, manufacturing strongly interacts with structural performance. Secondly, composites can be described at different scales. This article summarizes contributions that address both features. It is shown how design guidelines can be accounted for in laminate blended design through stacking sequence tab...

This paper describes new concepts the author has proposed and demonstrated to realize metal and polymer based sensitive and/or active structural material systems suitable for smart structures. Most of the developments have been done by simple and innovative methods without using sophisticated and expensive sensors and actuators. The following topics are mainly examined: (1) forming optical inte...

Structural optimization using computational tools has become a major research field in recent years. The paper deals with a sizing optimization analysis of laminated circular cylindrical shell. For thin-walled shells, the classical shell theory is capable of accurately predicting the shell behavior. The weight minimization subjected to displacement constraint within the numerical optimization o...

This clinical report describes the fabrication and bonding of porcelain laminate veneer restorations in a patient with anterior open spaces. Laminate veneer restorations made of feldspathic porcelain were etched with 5% hydrofluoric acid, rinsed under tap water, ultrasonically cleaned with methanol, and primed with a chemically activated three-liquid silane bonding agent (Clearfil Porcelain Bon...

The design of laminate layups using a genetic algorithm function optimizer has been investigated using a generate-and-test evaluation function and the layup-synthesis rule-base from a knowledge based design system. A simple coding of plies to genes is shown to be applicable in each case when coupled with a penalty function that constrains genetic search to permissable layup candidates. Experime...

This research paper focuses on the laminate composites of carbon steel and aluminium alloy using epoxy resin. For making composite metal laminates, compression molding method is used. Press used for sandwiched plates at 90°C 155 seconds. Izod Charpy Impact test were performed laminated its parent material i.e., Carbon Steel (SAE1042) Aluminium Alloy (6061-T6) to made a comparison with investiga...

This study concerns with the optimisation of a fibre-reinforced composite material ply book and application to an aeronautical component. The presented solution is recyclable FML (Fibre Metal Laminate). Recyclable structural PMCs (Polymeric Matrix Composites) developed up-to now in ENEA had be improved satisfy high-demanding fire characteristics requirements aeronautics, particularly for case c...

Abstract The steels with excellent strength and ductility are expected to be achieved by tailoring the microstructural features. In this work, laminate dual-phase (DP) high martensite content (laminate HMDP steels) were produced a combination of warm rolling intercritical annealing. Influence strain annealing temperature on evolution mechanical properties systematically studied. was significant...
