The effects of input parameters on the square-cup deep-drawing process for a two-layer aluminum/steel laminated sheet were investigated. Each layer was 0.7 mm thick, and the input parameters covered in the investigation were punch nose radius (PR), die shoulder radius (DR), the clearance between a punch and die (CPD), blank holder force (BHF), and layer arrangement (LA). The effects of the inpu...

The partially prefabricated laminated (RC) walls mentioned is this kind of seismic prevention element with part prefabricated concrete plate and cast in place concrete plate. 4 typical laminated walls without openings, 4 laminated walls with openings, and 1 common cast-in-place RC walls were tested under cyclic test. The seismic behaviour were analysed by the finite element software based on th...

We revisit the delamination of a solid adhesive sheet under uniaxial compression from flat, rigid substrate. Using energetic considerations and scaling arguments, we show that phenomenology is governed by three dimensionless groups, which characterize level confinement imposed on sheet, as well its extensibility bendability. Recognizing emerges through subcritical bifurcation planar, uniformly ...

the present paper investigates the advantages of a new class of composite grid structures over conventional grids. thus far, a known grid structure such as orthogrid or isogrid has been used as an orthotropic layer with at most in-plane anisotropy. the present laminated grid is composed of various numbers of thin composite grid layers. the stiffness of the structure can be adjusted by choosing ...

Computer-Aided Manufacturing of Laminated Engineering Materials (CAM-LEM), developed at Case Western Reserve University, is a layered-manufacturing approach utilizing automated stacking of parts laser-cut from sheet materials. This paper presents the design of a materialhandling system and its integration with a modular lasercutting system, completing the most recent version of CAM-LEM. Our mat...

Dried and well-consolidated sheet of bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibrils is a material structure that possesses high modulus strength but also brittle, which limits its potential in various advanced composite applications. Here, we report simple method enhancing the toughness BC by sizing with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). This hinders interfibril hornification facilitates large-scale nanofibri...

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the low-velocity impact behavior of foam-core sandwich panels. Panels with PUR foam core and plain weave carbon fabric laminated face-sheets were subjected to low-velocity impact with hemispherical steel impactors of di erent diameters at various energy levels. Digital image correlation (DIC) technique (ARAMIS software) was used to mea...

In this study, thermo elastic stress analysis is performed on a cylinder made of laminated isotropic materials under thermomechanical loads. Laminated cylinders have many applications such as aerospace, automotive and nuclear plant in the industry. These cylinders generally performed under thermomechanical loads. Stress and displacement distribution of the laminated cylinders are determined usi...

We investigate the global bifurcations and multipulse chaotic dynamics of a simply supported laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate under combined parametric and transverse excitations. We analyze directly the nonautonomous governing equations of motion for the laminated composite piezoelectric rectangular thin plate. The results obtained here indicate that the multipulse chao...
