It is widely known that the demand for lightweight structures with excellent energy absorption
capacity is paramount in numerous engineering applications. Many publications have …

Sandwich panels have wide applicability in blast-and impact-resistant design of structures
due to their phenomenal energy absorption capacity, albeit being considerably light in …

Inspired by cuttlebone, this study proposes a bioinspired metallic sandwich structure with
matrix material of Ti-6Al-4V prepared by selective laser melting method. The bioinspired …

Only a few research works show a method for creating doubly curved surfaces using single-
layer auxetic structures. There are no studies regarding sandwich wood-based synclastic …

In this paper, a fast-growing poplar wood was selected as the structural raw material to
construct a green, eco-friendly, and high-quality building structure. The pretreatment and hot …

Two-dimensional star-shaped honeycombs (2D SSHs) exhibit an effective negative
Poisson's ratio due to the abundant internal space and re-entrant angle, while the strength …

Purpose The purpose of this review paper is to provide a review of the most recent advances
in the field of manufacturing composite sandwich panels along with their advantages and …

This work studies the potential of using wooden tubes for crash applications. The tubes were
made from 1 mm thick “I214” poplar veneers, according to different stacking sequences …

Limited number of papers describe the practical use of auxetics in the wood and furniture
sector. Only one paper describes the auxetic nails. None of them analyzed the impact of …

This work describes the bending and shear mechanical properties of a novel concept of
sustainable sandwich panel made from unidirectional prepreg flaxtape skins and bamboo …
