Load‑bearing behaviors of sandwich plates with non‑uniformly distributed grid cores : Static compression and bending by Hao, Ning, Wang, Youlong, Song, Yiheng, Ruan, Sihan, Quanjin, Ma, Wang, Ziying

“…Under bending loading, most NUGPs experience local failure at the loading head, while the specific category surpassing GPs undergoes shear buckling in longer grid walls. (3) Deformation modes of the core layer, mechanical analysis, thin plate buckling theory, and equivalent bending stiffness calculations elucidate the load-bearing mechanisms of NUGPs. These findings enhance topology optimization research for sandwich plates, provide guidance for grid wall arrangements under different loading conditions, and offer insights for designing lightweight sandwich structures.…”

End-fire surface wave antenna with metasurface coating by Wang, Ping, Shen, Zhongxiang

“…It consists of a tapered grounded slab fed by a wideband surface wave launcher and coated with a planar gradient metasurface (MS). It is found that by altering the surface reactance of the MS array, the surface wave propagating in the grounded slab can be manipulated to suppress the radiation of TM1 mode region at a specific high frequency. …”
