A numerical study of the impact perforation of sandwich panels with graded hollow sphere cores

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
In this study, we numerically investigate the impact perforation of sandwich panels made of 0.8 mm 2024-T3 aluminum alloy skin sheets and graded polymeric hollow sphere cores with four different gradient profiles. A suitable numerical model was conducted

Blast response of continuous-density graded cellular material based on the 3D Voronoi model

open access: yesDefence Technology, 2018
One-dimensional blast response of continuous-density graded cellular rods was investigated theoretically and numerically. Analytical model based on the rigid-plastic hardening (R-PH) model was used to predict the blast response of density-graded cellular

Likert Scaling Using the Graded Response Latent Trait Model [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Psychological Measurement, 1983
The two-parameter graded response latent trait model was applied to data collected from a conven tionally constructed Likert-type attitude scale. Com parisons were made of both the person latent trait esti mates and the item parameter estimates with their counterparts from the conventional scaling method.
