In this paper, layerwise theory (LT) along with the first, second and third-order shear deformation theories (FSDT, SSDT and TSDT) are used to determine the stress distribution in a simply supported square sandwich plate subjected to a uniformly distributed load. Two functionally graded (FG) face sheets encapsulate an elastomeric core while two epoxy adhesive layers adhere the core to the face ...

Can an embodied approach to social cognition accommodate mindreading, our ability to attribute mental states to another person? Prima facie it might not. Mindreading has been conceived in terms of what Susan Hurley calls the classical sandwich picture of the mind. On this view, perception corresponds to input from world to mind, action to output from mind to world, and cognition as sandwiched i...

in this research work nano porous silicon layers with different porosity were prepared by using electrochemical etching. surface morphology and size of pores were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (sem).tio2 thin films with ebpvd method have been deposited on the surface of psi layers. the influence of anodization conditions such as anodization time interval and current density on el...

In this paper, we obtain some interesting properties of differential subordination and superordination for the classes of symmetric analytic functions in the unit disk, by applying Noor integral operator. We investigate several sandwich theorems on basis of this theory.

In the present work a non-linear dynamic response of a continuous sandwich beam with SMA hybrid composite face sheets and flexible core is analyzed taking into account the phase transformation and also the material non-linearity effects, for every point along the face sheets. The one-dimensional constitutive equation of SMA proposed by Brinson is employed. Equations of motion are derived using ...

Due to the scarcity of rational models for predicting the strength of RC beam-column sandwich joints, a modified simplified softened strut-and-tie model suggests a more rational calculation method for the effective compressive strength and the height of the joint concrete based on the simplified softened strut-and-tie. The shear strength of existing tested 15 sandwich interior joints is calcula...

In this work, the problem of a curved functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) actuator with sandwich structure under electrical and thermal loads is investigated. The middle layer in the sandwich structure is functionally graded with the piezoelectric coefficient g31 varying continuously along the radial direction of the curved actuator. Based on the theory of linear piezoelectricity, analytica...

The "perturbation" effects (i.e. hyperconjugation, electronegativity, and conjugation) on the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of three kinds of two-dimensional (2D) X-Cr-X (X = C4H, NC3 and BC3 monolayers) sandwich nanostructures were systematically investigated by means of spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT) computations. Although all these 2D sandwich systems energe...
