Abstract The thermal analysis is performed on a heated Inconel 617 honeycomb-core sandwich panel. Sandwich panel is supported at its four edges with spar-like sub-structures that acted as heat sinks, which are generally not considered in the classical analysis. One side of the panel is subjected to a heat flux on the surface. Two types of surface heating were considered: (1) hexagonal honeycomb...

We propose a fast penalized spline method for bivariate smoothing. Univariate Pspline smoothers Eilers and Marx (1996) are applied simultaneously along both coordinates. The new smoother has a sandwich form which suggested the name “sandwich smoother” to a referee. The sandwich smoother has a tensor product structure that simplifies an asymptotic analysis and it can be fast computed. We derive ...

abstract: the present study deals with the buckling analysis of the laminated composite truncated conical sandwich shells with flexible core subjected to combined axial compressive load and external pressure. higher order governing equations of the motion are presented for conical composite sandwich shells, where they are derived from the hamilton principle. then, by the use of improved higher-...

Two systems of sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), a two-site monoclonal antibody sandwich ELISA MAb-MAb sandwich ELISA) and a two site polyclonal-monoclonal antibody sandwich ELISA (PAb-MAb sandwich ELISA) for the detection of Plasmodium vivax antigens were developed. The assays showed good correlation with the level of parasitemia when tested against serially diluted P. vivax ...

This study aims to investigate the effect of changing skins material on strength sandwich plates with circular hole when subjected mechanical loads. Theoretical, numerical and experimental analyses are done for two face sheet materials. Theoretical analysis is performed by using plate theory which depends first order shear deformation tension bending separately. Finite element method was used a...

In this paper, static indentation and low velocity impact responses of a fully backed composite sandwich plate subjected to a rigid flat-ended cylindrical indenter/impactor are analytically investigated. The analysis is nonlinear due to nonlinear strain-displacement relation. In contrast to the existed analytical models for the indentation of composite sandwich plates, the stacking sequence of ...

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...

The article presents the results of tribological investigations into steel/polymer/steel sandwich material LITECOR® developed by ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe for applications in automotive industry. Friction tests were carried out means a strip drawing test with use special tribotester mounted on uniaxial tensile machine. influence sheet deformation value coefficient friction (COF) was considered....
