Surface Properties of Pine Scrimber Panels with Varying Density

Terrestrial Planet Formation in Disks with Varying Surface Density Profiles

The “minimum-mass solar nebula” (MMSN) model estimates the surface density distribution of the protoplanetary disk by assuming the planets to have formed in situ. However, significant radial migration of the giant planets likely occurred in the Solar system, implying a distortion in the values derived by the MMSN method. The true density profiles of protoplanetary disks is therefore uncertain. ...

Properties of Osb Panels with Veneer Inclusion

This work aimed to evaluate the effect of veneer inclusion with different wood species, and also different levels of pressing pressure applied in the moment of the veneer inclusion over physicalmechanical properties of already consolidated OSB (Oriented Strand Board) panels. Treatments were arranged in factorial scheme 4 x 2 (four wood types for veneer inclusion – Pinus oocarpa, Eucalyptus urop...

effect of rigid polyurethane foam core density on flexural and compressive properties of sandwich panels with glass/epoxy faces

sandwich panels as composite materials have two external walls of either metallic or polymer type. the space between these walls is filled by hard foam or other materials and the thickness of different layers is based on the final application of the panel. in the present work, the extent of variation in core density of polyether urethane foam and subsequent flexural and compressive changes in s...

Surface instability of an elastic half space with material properties varying with depth.

If a body with a stiffer surface layer is loaded in compression, a surface wrinkling instability may be developed. A bifurcation analysis is presented for determining the critical load for the onset of wrinkling and the associated wavelength for materials in which the elastic modulus is an arbitrary function of depth. The analysis leads to an eigenvalue problem involving a pair of linear ordina...
