Numerical simulation is in good agreement with theory. Results indicate that one specified face thickness to core height ratio corresponds to one optimum layer number of multi-layer pyramidal core sandwich columns in consideration of engineering application. This result can guide the sandwich structure design.展开更多
Pyramidal elements are often used to connect tetrahedral and hexahedral elements in the finite element method.In this paper we derive three new higher order numerical cubature formulae for pyramidal elements.
