Developed by scientists at Novartis – and now owned by GlaxoSmithKline – the jab, dubbed Bexsero, consists of an aluminium core decorated with no less than four different MenB coat elements, working together to stimulate an immune response.
The particles can be described by an aluminium core surrounded with an alumina layer which, depending on the passivation method, can be amorphous or constituted with small crystallites of γ-alumina.
The thermal expansion of the aluminium core is obtained by following the variation of the cell parameter with temperature.
Lakeland has overcome this problem with pans that have a solid-copper outer, stainless-steel cooking surface and an aluminium core.
Static and dynamic three-point bending tests were carried out in order to investigate the structural response (collapse modes, energy dissipation, strain rate sensitivity) of two different typologies of aluminium foam sandwich (AFS) panels, consisting of a closed-cell aluminium foam core with either two integral (Schunk) or two glued (Alulight) faces.
Under oxidative conditions, the coalescence of particle aluminium cores is reduced in comparison with inert conditions and this is due to a thicker oxide layer.
MCNP5 code was used to study two of such designs; one LEU core with aluminium shim tray and the other with Zr-4 shim tray for the Ghana Research Reactor-1 to investigate their impacts on the neutronics of the reactor.
A finite element procedure is adopted within a purely kinematical multi-scale constitutive modelling framework to determine the response of a periodic arrangement of aluminium honeycomb core filled with PVC foam.
In this paper, the sandwich tubes, which consist of thin-walled circular tubes with aluminium foam core, were proposed as energy absorption devices.
This paper presents the results of numerical studies carried out on vibro-acoustic and sound transmission loss behaviour of aluminium honeycomb core sandwich panel with fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) facings.
