Abstract
The sandwich structure allows to shearing the viscoelastic core layer and increase passive damping. This paper focuses on an investigation of the modal behavior of the sandwich structures with homogeneous cores and periodic cores. Two polymers are selected for their adhesion properties to metal surfaces and their viscoelastic properties. A numerical approach is presented to solve the vibration problem and determine the response curve. Periodic sandwich beams are elaborated with two viscoelastic polymers which are chosen for these characteristics. Scanning vibration allows the measurement of the deflection shapes of the fourth mode. The deflection shapes in the case of a periodic core sandwich show discontinuities localized at the interfaces of the periodic structures. These irregularities in the deflection shapes can be predicted and localized by our numerical model. The results show the importance of considering the impact of the modal behavior using a periodic core sandwich.
期刊介绍:
Mechanics Research Communications publishes, as rapidly as possible, peer-reviewed manuscripts of high standards but restricted length. It aims to provide:
• a fast means of communication
• an exchange of ideas among workers in mechanics
• an effective method of bringing new results quickly to the public
• an informal vehicle for the discussion
• of ideas that may still be in the formative stages
The field of Mechanics will be understood to encompass the behavior of continua, fluids, solids, particles and their mixtures. Submissions must contain a strong, novel contribution to the field of mechanics, and ideally should be focused on current issues in the field involving theoretical, experimental and/or applied research, preferably within the broad expertise encompassed by the Board of Associate Editors. Deviations from these areas should be discussed in advance with the Editor-in-Chief.
