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...

In this work, repaired crack in 6061T6 aluminum plate with composite patches presented, firstly we determine the displacement, strain and stress, also the first six mode shape of the plate, secondly we took the same model adding central crack initiation, which is located in the center of the plate, its seize vary from 20 mm to 60 mm and we compare the first results with second. Thirdly we repai...

Short banana fiber reinforced composites have been prepared in laboratory to determine mechanical properties. It has been observed that as soon as the percentage of the banana fiber increases slightly there is a tremendous increase in ultimate tensile strength, % of strain and young modulus of elasticity. Reinforcement of banana fibers in epoxy resin increases stiffness and decreases damping pr...

abstract background and aim: one of the major problems with resin composite restorations is the weakness of bonding between the new and aged composites. since appropriate micromechanical retention is necessary for the repair of aged resin composite restorations, the level of surface roughness after sandblasting can be influential in this regard. considering the diverse composition of available ...

This paper presents a solution to the boundary stabilization of a symmetric composite laminated plate in free transverse vibration. The symmetric composite laminated plate dynamics is presented by a linear fourth order partial differential equation (PDE). A linear control law is constructed to stabilize the plate. The control force consists of feedback of the velocity at the boundary of the pla...

We present a new packaging solution for GaN power electronics for efficient heat extraction needed for high power devices. The benefits of using silver diamond composite as base plate in packages for GaN power bars is demonstrated. A dramatic improvement in thermal management (as high as ~50%) was obtained with respect to the existing packaging technologies based on CuW. Micro-Raman thermograph...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin on superficial and deep dentin after conditioning with phosphoric acid and erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser. methods: thirty human molars were selected, roots were removed and crowns were bisected to provide a total of 60 half-crowns. specimens were ground to expose superficial...

Thermoelastic damping (TED) in a circular micro-plate resonator subjected to an electrostatic pressure is studied. The coupled thermo-elastic equations of a capacitive circular micro plate are derived considering hyperbolic heat conduction model and solved by applying Galerkin discretization method. Applying complex-frequency approach to the coupled thermo-elastic equations, TED is obtained for...

Fiber-reinforced laminated composites are frequently preferred in many engineering projects. With the development in production technology, the using of the fiber reinforced laminated composites has been increasing in engineering applications. In the production stage of the fiber-reinforced laminated composites, porosities could be occurred due to production or technical errors. After a level o...
