A new numerical approach and visco-refined zigzag theory for blast analysis of auxetic honeycomb plates integrated by multiphase nanocomposite facesheets in hygrothermal environment

摘要

The current work suggests a mathematical model for the dynamic response of sandwich plates subjected to a blast load using a numerical method. The sandwich structure is made from an auxetic honeycomb core layer integrated by multiphase nanocomposite facesheets. The facesheets are composed of polymer-carbon nanotube (CNT)-fiber where the equivalent material properties of the multiphase nanocomposite layers are obtained using fiber micromechanics and Halpin-Tsai equations in hierarchy. The top and bottom layers are subjected to magnetic field and the material properties of them are assumed temperature and moisture dependent. The Kelvin-Voigt model is employed to consider the viscoelastic properties of the structure. The sandwich structure is rested on a viscoelastic foundation which is modeled by orthotropic visco-Pasternak medium. Based on refined zigzag theory (RZT), energy method and Hamilton's principle, the motion equations are derived. A new numerical method, namely differential cubature method (DCM) in conjunction with Newmark method is utilized for obtaining the dynamic deflection of the structure for different boundary conditions. The effects of various parameters such as blast load, viscoelastic foundation, structural damping, magnetic field, volume fraction of CNTs, temperature and moisture changes, geometrical parameters of honeycomb layer and sandwich plate are considered on the dynamic deflection of the structure. The results show that the magnetic field to the facesheets can be considered as effective parameters to control the dynamic deflection. In addition, hygrothermal condition leads to increase of 24% in the dynamic displacement of system.
