Abstract: Inflated membrane structures, useful in vibration/shock isolation devices, terrestrial and space structures, etc., rely on the internal dissipation in the membrane for vibration attenuation. In this work, using the Christensen ...

Abstract: A finite inflation analysis of two circumferentially bonded hyperelastic circular flat membranes with uniform internal pressure is presented. The governing equations of equilibrium are obtained using the variational ...

Abstract: A unified approach to determine the effective elastic properties of irregular and regular honeycomb (Hc) lattice structures is presented. A micromechanics model of a lattice, based on the fundamental periodic element, is ...
