Disclosed are a hollow pipe-sandwiching metal plate and applications thereof. The hollow pipe-sandwiching metal plate comprises a first panel, a second panel, and multiple hollow pipes between the first panel and the second panel; gaps are arranged among the hollow pipes, and the hollow pipes are connected to the first panel and the second panel by brazing. The present disclosure further includes the applications of the hollow pipe-sandwiching metal plate. The hollow pipe-sandwiching metal plate has advantages, such as light weight, high strength, low stress, high temperature resistance, pressure bearing, thermal insulation and vibration isolation. The metal plate will not deform due to thermal difference, thereby providing permanent service life of the metal plate.

The present invention relates to the construction industry, and in particular to laboratories, hospitals, food production areas and other places where asepsis is required. Specifically, it relates to a modular construction system based on self-supporting panels, which have post-formed exterior surfaces and are complemented with corner components of similar construction to build hermetic, waterproof and insulating walls that have smooth surfaces. For this, there is a modular system of panels for forming aseptic spaces within an enclosure and a method of installing a clean room wall by means of a modular system of panels to form aseptic spaces inside an enclosure.

Composite honeycomb that may be contoured to form composite honeycomb structures, which have tight radii of curvatures and/or compound curvatures, and which are suitable for use in high temperature environments. The method for making the composite honeycomb involves using high temperature prepreg to make a flexible composite honeycomb that is formed into a composite honeycomb precursor. A high temperature coating resin is applied to the composite honeycomb precursor to form the high temperature composite honeycomb.

Exemplary embodiments of a decorative hard flooring system for an aircraft are disclosed herein. The hard flooring system includes a plurality of decorative hard floor assemblies at least some of which include a decorative hard flooring layer and a metallic substrate layer having at least one aperture formed therein to receive a warming element. The flooring system further includes, a power supply coupled to the warming element and a controller coupled to the power supply to control the power supplied to the warming element. An ambient temperature sensor coupled to the controller to provide an indication of ambient temperature so that the controller controls the power supply to power the warming elements to warm the decorative hard floor assemblies to be substantially at the ambient temperature.

A method for producing a mica paper honeycomb may include providing sheets of partially cured impregnated mica paper, and gluing the sheets along periodic parallel lines to form an unexpanded, partially cured mica paper honeycomb. The unexpanded partially cured mica paper honeycomb may be expanded to obtain an expanded partially cured mica paper honeycomb. The expanded partially cured mica paper honeycomb may be cured to obtain a mica paper honeycomb.

The present invention proposes a novel construction system consisting of the attachment of modified hyperboloid shaped-structural elements called laminate cells which, when working together, create a structural system with integrated cover having the capacity of absorbing and transmitting stresses in all directions and orientations.

The invention relates to a composite sandwich base panel for a Unit Load Device. The panel comprises an upper surface layer comprising fibre reinforcement material, a lower surface layer comprising fibre reinforcement material, and a central core section where at least the majority comprises a plurality of particles bound in a matrix material. The upper surface layer and lower surface layer are provided with a matrix material to bind them to the central core section.

What is presented is a unit cell comprising a cellular geometry that comprises cell walls and cell edges arranged into a combination of a cubic cell geometry and a tetrahedral cell geometry arranged to have a coincident central vertex. The cubic cell geometry comprises three orthogonal cell faces that intersect at its central vertex. The tetrahedral cell geometry comprises an arrangement of eight tetrahedral cells that share its central vertex such that each tetrahedral cell shares three coincident edges with three other tetrahedral cells in a cubically symmetric arrangement. The tetrahedral cell geometry is combined with the cubic cell geometry such that all vertices of the tetrahedral cell geometry are coincident with the vertices of the cubic cell geometry.
