In this paper, a rectangular sandwich plate with a constrained layer and an electrorheological (ER) fluid core is investigated. The rectangular plate is covered an ER fluid core and a constraining layer to improve the stability of the system. The two outer layers of the sandwich structure are elastic. The viscoelastic materials express the middle layer behavior under electric field and small st...

In the present paper, a novel unconstrained higher-order theory (UCHOT) is applied to analyse free vibration of cylindrical sandwich shells with nanocomposite face sheets reinforced graphene platelets. UCHOT considers shear and thickness deformations. It assumed that cylinder includes soft core which embedded between functionally graded platelets composites (FG-GPLRC). FG-GPLRC sheet consists s...

This problem was suggested by Bradley Klee. For the related case of one cylinder rolling inside another, see [1]. When one cylinder is directly above the other, we define the line of contact of the lower cylinder, 1, with the horizontal plane to be the z-axis, at x = y = 0. Then, the condition of rolling without slipping for the lower cylinder is that when it has rolled (positive) distance x1, ...

A graph Gs = (V,Es) is a sandwich for a pair of graph Gt = (V,Et) and G = (V,E) if Et ⊆ Es ⊆ E. Any poset, or partially ordered set, admits a unique graph representation which is directed and transitive. In this paper we introduce the notion of sandwich poset problems inspired by former sandwich problems on comparability graphs. In particular, we are interested in seriesparallel and interval po...

the aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of fabrication methods on the com-pressive properties of sandwich composites using both experimental work and numerical simulations. two types of sandwich composites with e-glass/kevlar/polyester resin facings and end-grain balsa wood as core have been produced by vacuum infusion processing (vip) and hand-lay up (hl) method. compression tests on...

The purpose of this paper is control of simply supported flexible core sandwich beam's linear vibration equipped with piezoelectric patches under different loads. The effects of external forces imposed on sandwich beam can be reached to a minimum value by designing an appropriate controller and control the beam's vibration. Three-layer sandwich beam theory is used for analytical modeling of san...

Attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) to proteins can mask immune epitopes to increase serum half-life, reduce immunogenicity, and enhance in vivo biological efficacy. However, PEGylation mediated epitope-masking may also limit sensitivity and accuracy of traditional ELISA. We previously described an anti-PEG-based sandwich ELISA for universal assay of PEGylated molecules. Here, we compared the q...

  In this paper deflection and free vibration of sandwich panel is studied. The core of Sandwich panels is made of hexagonal honeycomb and faces are made of two different materials of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic and K-aryl/epoxy covering. The governing equations are deduced from the First order Sheer Deformation Theory (FSDT) and they are solved using Generalized Differential Quadrature Met...

The objective of this work is to study the large deflection of geometrically asymmetric metal foam core sandwich beam under transverse loading by a fiat punch. A yield criterion is proposed for geometrically asymmetric metal foam core sandwich structures, and then analytical solution for the large deflection of a fully clamped slender sandwich beam is obtained, in which the interaction of bendi...
