In this study, the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics within sandwich panels are investigated using computational fluid dynamics. Within the sandwich panels having periodic cellular cores, air can freely move inside the core section so that the structure is able to perform multi-functional roles such as simultaneous load bearing and heat dissipation. Thus, there needs to examine the thermal and flow analysis with respect to design variables and various conditions. In this regard, ANSYS Fluent was utilized to explore the flow and heat transfer within the pyramidal truss sandwich structures by varying the truss angle and inlet velocity. Without the entry effect in the first unitcell, the constant rate of pressure and the constant rate of Nusselt number was observed. As a result, it was demonstrated that Nusselt number increases and friction factor decreases as the inlet velocity increases. Moreover, the rate of Nusselt number and friction factor was appreciable in the range of V=1-5m/s due to the transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Regarding the effect of design variable, the variation of truss angle did not significantly influence the characteristics.

On this study, The combustion properties in 3 kinds of sandwich panels based on ISO 13784-1(Room Corner Test for Sandwich panel building systems) using FDS Version 5 modeling method were tested and analyzed. Comparative analysis for those two results between FDS and real tests were made mainly concentrating on heat release rate.

For each construction material used, there is certain theoretical limit in sizes. For tall building construction, the reduction in slab weight is the first step to take in order to break such size limits. In this paper, the feasibility of such objective is proven and given by numerical analysis result. For a typical building slab, both concrete and advanced composite sandwich panels are considered. The concrete slab is treated as a special orthotropic plate to obtain more accurate result. Any method may be used to obtain the deflection influence surfaces needed for this vibration analysis. Finite difference method is used for this purpose, in this paper. The influence of the modulus of the foundation on the natural frequency is thoroughly studied.

With the advantages of large vibration energy dissipation of structures, the granular materials are used as vibration and acoustic treatments. In this case of vibro acoustic controls, a finite dynamic strength of the solid component (frame) is an important design factor. The dynamic stiffness of hollow cylindrical beams containing porous and granular materials as damping treatment was measured. Using the Rayleigh-Ritz method, the effects of damping materials on the dynamic characteristics of beams were investigated. The results suggested that the acoustic structure Interaction between the frame and the structure enhances the dissipation of the vibration energy significantly. The same methods were applied also to vibration control of sandwich panels. By filling the cavities of honeycomb cores using unconsolidated granular materials, its sound transmission toss was improved significantly.

In this study, a polymer mortar sandwich panel (PMSP) was developed : Core was made with the polymer mortar whose compressive strength was about 840 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$, and both facings were made with the glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP). The results showed that the strain energies and the ductility indices increased 16-340 times and 2-8 times, respectively, as the thicknesses of facings increased from 0.6 to 3.0mm with fixing the core thickness to constants (12-36mm). On the other hand, these values showed a tendency of decrease as the core thickness increased regardless of thickness of facings. A set of basic data for the structural analysis could be provided by investigating the correlations, within the scope of this research, between the resisting moment and the thicknesses of core and facings.

본 연구에서는 표면부를 에폭시 폴리머 모르터로 하고 , 중심부를 발포 폴리스티렌으로 하는샌드위치 패널을 제조하여, 표면부를 용접철강으로 보강한 경우와 보강하지 않은 경우에 대하여 4강 단순지지 조건에서의 정적 차 통해 하중-처짐, 휨모멘트-변형률, 파괴양상 등을 구명하였다. 단위중량, 극한가중, 휨모멘트는 중심부의 두께보다 표면부 두께에 더 큰 영향을 받으며 극한처짐은 보강안된 경우 표면부 보다 중심부 두께의 영향이 월등히 컸으마 보당된 경우는 표면부나 중심부 두께의 영향이 비슷하였다. 그러나 용접철망의 보강은 샌드위치 패널의 처짐억제 보다 인성증가에 기여도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 샌드위치 패널의 파괴양상은 보강하지 않은 경우 선형파괴가 일어난데 비해 보강한 경우에는 방사상의 파괴가 일어났다.

Theoretical models to study the vibro-acoustic performance of a sandwich panel are proposed. The wave propagation characteristics are analyzed, and dispersion relation is derived. The vibration Is analyzed using the Mindlin plate theory. The vibration of the compliantly supported Mindlin plate is investigated using the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The Timoshenko beam functions are used as trial functions. The model is applied to numerically investigate the influence of the plate mechanical properties. The vibro-acoustic properties are mostly determined by bending deformation at low frequencies. At higher frequencies, the shear deformation has a strong influence. The proposed numerical model is used to estimate the optimal panel properties that result in minimum sound radiation. With increasing dynamic stiffnesses the vibration response decreases but the radiating wavenumber components increase.

This study is aiming at analyzing correlation between flashover's time and maximum smoke production rate's time on sandwich panel specimens. For this analysis, KS F ISO 137481-1 has been performed for 23 kinds of sandwich panels which mainly consist of EPS, PIR, PUR, Glass wool and so on. KS F ISO 13784-1 represents real scale reaction-to-fire test and focuses on measuring flashover phenomenon rather than other tests as like ISO 5660-1 and SBI.

In this paper we developed Composite-Smart-Structures(CSS) using sandwich structure composed of Glass/Epoxy laminates and Nomex honeycomb and microstrip antenna. Transmission/reflection theory shows that antenna performances can be improved due to multiple reflection by Glass/Epoxy facesheet, and honeycomb is used for air gap between antenna and facesheet. Stacked radiating patches are used for the wideband. Facesheet and honeycomb thicknesses are selected considering both wideband and high gain. Measured electrical performances show that CSS has wide bandwidth over $10\%$ and higher gain by 3.5dBi than initially designed antenna, and no doubt it has excellent mechanical performances by sandwich effect given by composite laminates and honeycomb core. The CSS concept can be extended to give a useful guide for manufacturers of structural body panels as well as antenna designers, promising innovative future communication technology.

In part 1. optimal process parameters such as thickness of stopper and welding time are achieved to produce high strength ISB(Inner Structured and Bonded) panels. Developed process is different from the usual resistance welding process in the number of points welded at a time. In part 2, Numerical modeling for this new process is proposed and the variation of contact area with respect to the gap of electrodes is studied through FE analyses, Besides, it is tried to figure out the welding nugget formation and proper distance between welding points. FE analytic results show that inner structures are melted more than skin plate, and current distribution between points to be welded can be controlled by distance welding points. Comparison of some FE analytic results with corresponding experimental results could confirm the validity of the proposed numerical modeling.
