Multi-cell metallic thin-walled tubes have gained wide popular in recent years, due to their significantly improvements in mechanical behaviors comparing with general single sample. In this investigation, some attempts to learn of the mechanism of folding process of multi-cell thin-walled square tubes were carried out. The half-wave length has been fully determined theoretically by the means of Super Folding Element. The relationship between the half-wave length as well as mean load versus cell amounts has been given. Afterwards, comprehensive numerical simulations were also conducted after necessary experimental validation, with the cell amounts range from 1 x 1 to 15 x 15 which have the equal weight but different thickness. Detailed evolutional process of deformation mode, half-wave length, and energy absorption capability were analyzed parametrically. The results turned out that the vital influence factor on mechanical properties of multi-cell tubes directly lies in the half-wave length caused by different cell amounts. With the increasing of cells, the half-wave length decreases while the energy absorption capability promotes. Evidently promotion can be observed compared with general single cell tube. All these achievements shed a light on disclosing the multi-cell effect on mechanical properties. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Zhendong Li, Xinwei Li, Jun Wei Chua, Chong Heng Lim, Xiang Yu, Zhonggang Wang, Wei Zhai

Summary: This study proposes a novel multifunctional microlattice metamaterial based on a hollow truss-plate hybrid design, which is realized by digital light processing 3D printing. Experimental results show that this material exhibits excellent sound absorption and mechanical properties, achieving quasi-perfect sound absorption and broadband half-absorption. The sound-absorbing capacity relies on the designed cascaded Helmholtz-like resonators, and the physical mechanisms behind the absorptive behaviors are revealed through numerical analyses. Additionally, this material displays superior modulus and strength compared to conventional cellular materials and modified microlattices, attributed to the near-membrane stress state of the plate architecture and the mechanically robust behavior of the hollow struts. This work presents an effective approach for designing and engineering multifunctional metamaterials through 3D printing.

The Square-Circle-Circle structure is ranked as the optimum for crashworthiness application using Complex Proportional Assessment.

Effect of fibre concentration on the mechanical properties of welded reinforced polypropylene

E. Mofakhami, L. Gervat, B. Fayolle, G. Miquelard-Garnier, C. Ovalle, L. Laiarinandrasana

Summary: This study investigates the effects of fibre concentration on the mechanical response of welded glass-fibre-reinforced polypropylene (GF-PP). Experimental observations reveal a significant reduction in weld ratio, up to 60%, indicating a decreased strength compared to the bulk material. Increasing fibre content in the welded material results in a decrease in stress at break and strain at the maximum stress. The use of DIC technique and X-ray microtomography further confirms the localized strain amplification in the welded zone due to the significant increase in fibre density.

Meirbek Mussatayev, Qiuji Yi, Mark Fitzgerald, Vincent K. Maes, Paul Wilcox, Robert Hughes

Summary: Real-time monitoring of carbon fibre composites during Automated Fibre Placement (AFP) manufacturing remains a challenge for non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. This study designed a directional eddy-current (EC) probe to evaluate the detectability of out-of-plane wrinkles. Experimental evaluations and finite element modeling were conducted to better understand the relationship between eddy-current density and defect detection. The findings suggest that the probe configuration with an asymmetric driver coil and differential pickup coils shows the best capability for wrinkle detection.
