Sandwich materials made of two aluminum sheets and a crumpled core have been manufactured for the first time using reproducible process. This very specific aims to drastically improve elasticity performance indexes sandwich. The structure has studied mainly in bending.

in this paper dynamic analysis (modal-method) of sandwich contructions have been studied. for this purpose a computer program was developed that could analyse the sandwich construction's dynamics. by using the program, one can find the natural frequencies, the normal modes and dynamic response of the free and forced vibrations.by solving few problems in this article, we have illustrated th...

Let R and B be two sets of n points. A ham-sandwich cut is a line that simultaneously bisects R and B, and is known to always exist. This notion can be generalized to the case where each point p ∈ R ∪ B is associated with a weight wp. A ham-sandwich cut can still be proved to exist, even if weights are allowed to be negative. In this paper, we present a O(n logn) algorithm to find a weighted ha...

A higher-order sandwich theory is implemented in conjunction with an equivalent mobility-based power flow progressive method to determine power flow for a sandwich configured floating raft vibration isolation system. The power spectrum changes in whole frequency range effectively when core materials’ properties change. It is also shown that the loss factors of the sandwich configured floating r...

In this study, a magnetorheological elastomer (MRE) was manufactured and tested, and a MRE sandwich beam was also fabricated from a MRE between two thin aluminum layers. An experimental test rig was set up to investigate the vibration response of the MRE sandwich beam under a non-homogeneous magnetic field. The experimental results show that the first natural frequency of the MRE sandwich beam ...

PURPOSE To share our hybrid endovascular experiences using chimney or sandwich stent grafts for acute aortic arch pathologies. METHODS Hybrid procedures for a distal aortic arch aneurysm and an ascending anastomotic aortic aneurysm rupture were reported. Right to left common carotid and left axillar artery bypasses were located. Covered stents were inserted into the inominate artery, with the...

A series of drop weight tests were conducted to evaluate the dynamic flatwise compression strength and flexural strength of sandwich panels with a novel core structure. This sandwich core material, known as Norcore, consists of interconnected cells in a unique configuration of truncated pyramid with sloping cell walls. Core materials made of thermoplastic including virgin Lexan, polycarbonate, ...

Social work theory advanced the formulation of the construct of the sandwich generation to apply to the emerging generational cohort of caregivers, most often middle-aged women, who were caring for maturing children and aging parents simultaneously. This systematic review extends that focus by synthesizing the literature on sandwich generation caregivers for the general aging population with de...

The specificity of a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting Aspergillus galactomannan was tested with exoantigens of 29 fungi cultured from clinical specimens. Cross-reactivity was observed with Penicillium chrysogenum, Penicillium digitatum, and Paecilomyces variotii. Furthermore, 40 serum samples obtained from bacteremic patients with hematologic malignancies were re...

As a recently studied phase change material, Ge2Sb2Se4Te1 (GSST) shows excellent potential in the application of optical devices, because it presents very low loss amorphous state within communication wavelength 1550 nm and exhibits significant differences properties before after change. However, is still challenging that, real GSST switching driven by narrow voltage pulse. In this study, sandw...
