Plates form one of the basic elements of structures. Land-based structures may be subjected
to air blast loads during combat environment or terrorist attack, while marine structures may …

Polymer-based sandwich composites have found increasing applications in the marine
industry, where they are at an ever-increasing risk of encountering high-intensity underwater …

We report the energy absorption and piezoresistive self-sensing performance of 3D printed
discontinuous carbon fiber (CF)-reinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cellular …

This work presents results from a numerical investigation on the influence of fluid-structure
interaction (FSI) on the dynamic response of thin steel plates subjected to blast loading. The …

Metallic sandwich panels subject to underwater blast respond in a manner dependent on
the relative time scales for core crushing and water cavitation. This article examines the …

The quasi-static and dynamic compressive mechanical response of a multilayered
pyramidal lattice structure constructed from stainless-steel was investigated. The lattices …

Cellular metals with stochastic, 2D or 3D periodic microstructures can sustain large plastic
deformation at almost constant stress. Due to such excellent energy absorption capability …

This paper aims to reveal the impact resistance of the graded sandwich beams subjected to
high-velocity impacts experimentally. By using the one-stage gas gun system, the dynamic …

This paper presents a novel experimental methodology for the study of dynamic deformation
of structures under underwater impulsive loading. The experimental setup simulates fluid …

The aim of this paper is to address characteristics of cavitation evolution caused by the one-
dimensional fluid-structure interaction as the graded foam core sandwich panels are …
