The buckling behavior of sandwich shells with functionally graded (FG) coatings operating under different external pressures was generally investigated under simply supported boundary conditions. Since it is very difficult to determine the approximation functions satisfying clamped boundary conditions and to solve the basic equations analytically within the framework of first order shear deformation theory (FOST), the number of publications on this subject is very limited. An analytical solution to the buckling problem of FG-coated cylindrical shells under clamped boundary conditions subjected to uniform hydrostatic pressure within the FOST framework is presented for the first time.

Thiophene-containing compounds have antiviral properties and may be among the drugs tested for the treatment of COVID-19 diseases. In order to better understand the molecular definition of the 1-(2´-Thiophen)-2-propen-1-one-3-(2,3,5-trichlorophenyl) molecule from thiophene-containing compounds, the physico-chemical (molecular structure analysis, spectroscopic properties, boundary orbital analysis) mechanisms underlying the protein-ligand interaction should be examined in detail. For this reason, geometric parameters, IR and UV-vis spectra, conformational analysis, electronic, NBO and NLO properties, molecular electrostatic potential map and Mulliken charge distributions of the TTCP molecule were investigated theoretically using DFT theory in the Gaussian program.
