Sandwich panels are key components of many lightweight structures. They are often subjected to time-varying loads, which can cause various types of vibrations that adversely affect the functionality of the structure. That is why it is of such importance to predict the dynamic properties of both the panels and the structures made of them at the design stage. This paper presents finite element modeling of the dynamic properties (i.e., natural frequencies, mode shapes, and frequency response functions) of sandwich panels made of glass fabric impregnated with phenolic resin. The model reproducing the details of the panel structure was built using two-dimensional, quadrilateral, isoparametric plane elements. Afterwards, the model was subjected to an updating procedure based on experimentally determined frequency response functions. As a result, the average relative error for natural frequencies achieved numerically was 5.0%. Finally, a cabinet model consisting of the analyzed panels was built and experimentally verified. The relative error between the numerically and experimentally obtained natural frequencies was on average 5.9%.

Bismuth oxyselenide (BiOSe) stands as a highly promising layered semiconductor with outstanding optical, electrical, and thermal properties. For the practical application of the material toward the devices, growing BiOSe directly on the amorphous substrate at low temperatures (<400 °C) is essential; however, the negatively charged bottom Se layer originating from alternating stacks of Se and [BiO] has hindered this process. In this work, we report the method for synthesizing a BiOSe film on amorphous alumina (AlO) directly at 350 °C by using chemical solution deposition.

Context: To address the severe fuel crisis and environmental pollution, the use of lightweight metal materials, such as AZ alloy, represents an optimal solution. This study investigates the mechanical behavior and deformation mechanism of AZ alloys under uniaxial compressive using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The influence of various compositions, grain sizes (GSs), and temperatures on the compressive stress, the ultimate compressive strength (UCS), compressive yield stress (CYS), Young's modulus (E), shear strain, phase transformation, dislocation distribution, and total deformation length is thoroughly examined.

Context: The rotating arc plasma technique for the synthesis of nitrogen-doped graphene capitalizes on the distinctive attributes of plasma, presenting a straightforward, efficient, and catalyst-free strategy for the production of nitrogen-doped graphene. However, experimental outcomes generally fail to elucidate the atomic-level mechanism behind this process. Our research utilizes molecular dynamics simulations to explore theoretically the formation of radicals during the plasma-driven reaction between methane (CH₄) and nitrogen (N₂).

Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted on mixtures of ionic liquids (ILs) and alcohols, specifically methanol, ethanol, and 1-propanol. Two different ILs, [Mmim][MeSO] and [Bmim][MeSO], were used with varying alcohol mole fractions to investigate the impact of alkyl chain length of cations, alcohol types, and alcohol concentrations on different structural and dynamic properties. Unique characteristics of the ILs were observed due to the varying polarity of solvents and the creation of diverse local environments surrounding the ILs.

The preference of water self-ions (hydronium and hydroxide) toward air/oil-water interfaces is one of the hottest topics in water research due to its importance for understanding properties, phenomena, and reactions of interfaces. In this work, we performed enhanced-sampling molecular dynamics simulations based on state-of-the-art neural network potentials with approximate M06-2X accuracy to investigate the propensity of hydronium and hydroxide ions at air/oil(decane)-water interfaces, which can simultaneously describe well the water autoionization process forming these ions, the recombination of ions, and the ionic distribution along the normal distance to the interface by employing a set of appropriate Voronoi collective variables. A stable ionic double-layer distribution is observed near the air-water interface, while the distribution is different at oil-water interfaces, where hydronium tends to be repelled from the interface into the bulk water, whereas hydroxide, with an interfacial stabilization free energy of -0.
