Enhanced magnetic properties and densification of SrFe12O19/Fe3O4 hard/soft composites via cold sintering process by Nuchjaree Salidkul, Prasit Thongbai, Supree Pinitsoontorn

“…Annealing changed the phase of Fe3O4 to α-Fe2O3 and reduced the pores, which made the composite materials more compact. These effects resulted in improved coercivity (∼4 kOe), remanence, and squareness ratio (∼0.5), with an optimized energy product (BHmax) of 0.80 MGOe observed for the 5 %FO composite. …”

Finite Element Analysis on Acoustic and Mechanical Performance of Flexible Perforated Honeycomb-Corrugation Hybrid Sandwich Panel by Jiaming Hu, Junyi Wang, Yu Xie, Chenzhi Shi, Yun Chen

“…In this paper, we developed a more realistic model considering the solid structural dynamics using the finite element method (FEM) and by applying aluminum and rubber as the structural material. The enhancement of the low-frequency performance and inhibition of broadband absorption coexisted in low-strength rubbers, implying a compromise in the selection of Young's modulus to balance these two influences. …”
