    • On the Choice of Shear Correction Factor in Sandwich Structures 

      Victor Birman; Charles W. Bert (Journal of Sandwich Structures and Materials, 2002-01-01)
      The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is a relatively simple tool that has been found to yield accurate results in the non-local problems of sandwich structures, such as buckling and free vibration. However, a ...

    • Wrinkling of Composite-facing Sandwich Panels Under Biaxial Loading 

      Victor Birman; Charles W. Bert (Journal of Sandwich Structures and Materials, 2004-05-01)
      The problem of face wrinkling in sandwich structures was identified as an important failure mode and first analyzed in 1940 by Gough et al. [1], who used a Winkler-type elastic foundation to model the core. This work was ...
