Metallic sandwich plates have been widely used in blast-resistance structures due to the excellent capacity of energy absorption. In this work, dynamic response of square honeycomb sandwich plates is investigated using LS-DYNA. The effect of mass of TNT charge on the deformation and on internal energy of square honeycomb sandwich plate is numerically analyzed. The relationship of deflection, as well as internal energy and the mass of TNT charge is obtained. The performance of square honeycomb sandwich plate is compared with monolithic solid plate with the same mass and blast loading. During the response of sandwich plate, the deformation includes local dent of upper face sheet, overall bending and stretching of both face sheets and buckling of square honeycomb core while the deformation of monolithic solid plate is involved in overall bending and stretching. It denotes that square honeycomb sandwich plate has better capacity of resistance-deformation and energy absorption than that of monolithic solid plate with the same mass and the same blast loading.

In foregoing study, a new phenomenon of the local dent of upper face sheet occurs in the simulation of dynamic response of sandwich plate subjected to blast loading. The reason and the effect of local dent on energy absorption are not ascertained. In this paper, two kind of square honeycomb plate with the cell wall thickness of 1mm and 0.5mm and with the same mass are modeled. And the dynamic response of both plates subjected to blast loading is simulated using LS-DYNA. For the thicker cell wall (1mm), the local dent is obvious while for the thinner cell wall (0.5mm), the local dent is not obvious and can be ignored. In addition, curves of the ratio of the maximum deflection of lower face sheet of sandwich plate to monolithic solid plate vs the mass of TNT charge as well as the ratio of internal energy are obtained. The results indicate that the local dent has the contribution to the energy absorption of sandwich plate especially in early time and the sandwich plate with the core of thinner cell wall has more effective capacity in blast-resistance than that with the core of thicker cell wall.

By using the first order shear deformation theory (FSTD), this paper presents the results of the nonlinear dynamic behavior and natural frequencies of sandwich plate supported by elastic foundations in thermal environment and subjected to mechanical load and blast loading. This work takes advantage of the sandwich plate configuration with three layers: graphene platelet –reinforced composite (GPL) layer – auxetic layer – FGM layer, to analyze the dynamic and vibration problem, in which the auxetic core layer has a negative Poisson's ratios and the FGM layer is reinforced by stiffeners made of full metal or full ceramic depending on a situation of stiffeners at the metal-rich or ceramic-rich side of the plate respectively. Corresponding to the combination of material layers, the mechanical quantities of the problem are processed and calculated to suit the structure and reinforcement conditions. Numerical results are provided to explore the influences of geometrical parameters, elastic foundation parameters, GPL volume fraction, blast and mechanical loads on the nonlinear dynamic behavior and vibration of sandwich plate resting on elastic foundation and in thermal environment. In addition, the study is not only assumed that the material properties depend on environment temperature variation, but also considered the thermal stresses in the stiffeners, as well as considered the effect of imperfections in the original shape of the structure.

Ligament volumetric behavior controls fluid and thus nutrient movement as well as the mechanical response of the tissue to applied loads. The reported Poisson’s ratios for tendon and ligament subjected to tensile deformation loading along the fiber direction are large, ranging from 0.8 ± 0.3 in rat tail tendon fascicles [1] to 2.98 ± 2.59 in bovine flexor tendon [2]. These Poisson’s ratios are indicative of volume loss and thus fluid exudation [3,4]. We have developed micromechanical finite element models that can reproduce both the characteristic nonlinear stress-strain behavior and large, strain-dependent Poisson’s ratios seen in tendons and ligaments [5], but these models are computationally expensive and unfeasible for large scale, whole joint models. The objectives of this research were to develop an anisotropic, continuum based constitutive model for ligaments and tendons that can describe strain-dependent Poisson’s ratios much larger than the isotropic limit of 0.5. Further, we sought to demonstrate the ability of the model to describe experimental data, and to show that the model can be combined with biphasic theory to describe the rate- and time-dependent behavior of ligament and tendon.
