Abstract: An approximate approach to the calculation of displacements, strains, and stresses near edges and corners in symmetric rectangular layered plates of dissimilar isotropic materials under thermal ...

Abstract: The theory of sandwich construction has been an active field of research for more than five decades. Aim of the present article is to review the work dedicated to the theoretical determination ...

Abstract: There are many technical applications in the field of lightweight construction as, for example, in aerospace engineering, where stress concentration phenomena play an important role in the design ...

Abstract: The paper deals with interface behavior of bimaterial ceramic-metal composites under dynamic time-harmonic load. The first plate is precracked with a normal crack touching the interface between the plates. It is assumed ...
