The natural vibration of an elastic sandwich beam on an elastic foundation is studied. Bernoulli's hypotheses are used to describe the kinematics of the face layers. The core layer is assumed to be stiff and compressible. The foundation reaction is described by Winkler's model. The system of equilibrium equations is derived, and its exact solution for displacements is found. Numerical results are presented for a sandwich beam on an elastic foundation of low, medium, or high stiffness
The elastoplastic bending of a sandwich bar with a stiff compressible core on an elastic foundation is studied. The kinematics of the bar, which is asymmetric across the thickness, is described adopting Bernoulli's hypotheses for the face layers. The displacements of the core are assumed to vary linearly across the thickness. The foundation is described by the Winkler model. A system of equilibrium equations for displacements is derived and solved. Numerical results for a metal-polymer sandwich bar are presented
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
