The present article investigates the thermoelastic interaction in a three-dimensional homogeneous and isotropic sandwich structure using the dual-phase-lag (DPL) model of generalized thermoelasticity. The incorporated resulting non-dimensional coupled equations are applied to a specific problem in which a sandwich layer of unidentical homogeneous and isotropic substances is subjected to time-de...

In this article a new structure of PEM fuel cell end plate is presented. The new structure is known as a honeycomb sandwich panel. Several properties of the presented structure, such as mechanical and thermal behavior, as well as its advantages and disadvantages are introduced. The aim of this paper is to reduce the weight of the while maintaining a better compression force on the PEM fuel cell...

thermoplastic honeycombs based on polypropylene are one of the latest types of cores used in sandwich structures. up to now there have been few experimental and modelling studies on the mechanical behaviour of sandwich structures with thermoplastic cores. in this paper, by considering the similar properties of foams and thermoplastic honeycombs, attempts are made to model the static indentation...

the present note arises from the author's talk at the conference ``ischia group theory 2014''. for subgroups $fle n$ of a group $g$ denote by $lat(f,n)$ the set of all subgroups of $n$, containing $f$. let $d$ be a subgroup of $g$. in this note we study the lattice $ll=lat(d,g)$ and the lattice $ll'$ of subgroups of $g$, normalized by $d$. we say that $ll$ satisfies sandwich classification theo...

Abstract: Polyurethane-steel sandwich structure, which creatively uses the polyurethane-steel sandwich composite as a structural material, is proposed to strengthen the impact resistance of buildings under debris flow. The impact resistance of polyurethane-steel sandwich structure under debris flow is investigated by a series of impact loading tests, compared with that of traditional steel fram...

MOTIVATION Giving a meaningful representation of a pedigree is not obvious when it includes consanguinity loops, individuals with multiple mates or several related families. RESULTS We show that finding a perfectly meaningful representation of a pedigree is equivalent to the interval graph sandwich problem and we propose an algorithm for drawing pedigrees.

This study investigates the extent to which the TiO2/graphene/TiO2 sandwich structure improves the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) over that of DSSCs with the traditional structure. Studies have demonstrated that the TiO2/graphene/TiO2 sandwich structure effectively enhances the open circuit voltage (V oc), short-circuit current density (J sc), and photoelectrical conversion e...

Steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich panels are composed of two steel plates with low thicknesses and high densities and strengths and one thick layer between both plates with low strength and density known as core that is composed of concrete. Cohesive material-epoxy resin or shear connectors are usually used to connect the plates to the concrete core. SCS sandwich composites are being develope...
