Machine learning assisted design of new lattice core for sandwich structures with superior

load carrying capacity


Sandwiching Machine: biscuits

may be automatically sandwiched with cream or jam or with two ingredients. The biscuits

are normally fed manually from the packing table to a set of vibratory conveyors. The

machines may have multilanes, usually from two up to six lanes. Each lane may produce 200

–800 sandwiches per minute, depending on the product and machine characteristics. Cookie

cappers are full width biscuit making

machine
systems. Chocolate tempering: when pure chocolate is used, accurate

temperature control during the process is essential. The temperature control to seed and

produce stable beta fat crystals that avoid ‘bloom’ is carried out in a tempering tube

that may be a separate unit or incorporated in the enrobing machine. Chocolate enrobing:

chocolate coating of biscuits is a continuous in-line process. The biscuits are delivered

directly, after cooling to around 25°C, to an enrobing machine. The

biscuit depositing machine

are transported through the enrober on an open wire mesh conveyor. They may be fully

coated or half coated with chocolate. Chocolate cooling: the chocolate is cooled in

tunnels with air/water cooling and accurate temperature control to ensure a clear, glossy

surface to the products.






There’s a lot to be said for the humble sandwich; it can serve as a simple snack or

dressed up and elevated to become a full meal. But there’s something about the

combination of hot metal plates and bread that takes sandwich making to the next level,

and this is where sandwich toasters and toastie makers come in.






These versatile bits of kit aren’t just reserved for toasting sandwiches; many come

with different plates for different tasks. Some have waffle plates, others have flat

plates and grill plates for toasted sandwiches, some even open up flat for table-top

grilling. Before making a purchase, consider what you want to use your toastie maker or

sandwich toaster for. Are you looking to make bog-standard cheese toasties or are you

after a multifaceted machine that can be used a couple of different ways? We tested a

range of different models to find the best sandwich toaster for you.

But, when I recently talked to a bunch of experts about how to build awesome

sandwiches, I decided it was high time I got back into the homemade-sammy game. It may not

be quite as easy, but it's certainly still cheap, it's even more customizable,

and, I have to admit, that extra bit of work makes it taste a heck of a lot better at the

end. Then again, if I'm going to go the extra mile with a sandwich, I want it to look

as good as it tastes. I want it to stay intact when I travel, and I want eating it to feel

effortless. I want to be able to pull it out of my bag, give it a nice long look, and say

daaamn, sandwich, before crushing it between my jaws.

How to Make a Better Grilled Cheese


I want to wrap it like a badass—albeit a badass with a mild case of OCD.






So this weekend, I asked the sandwich guy at my corner bodega to give me a lesson, and

he graciously complied. Turns out the process is crazy easy and crazy handy—with a few

basic folds and turns, you'll have a sandwich that'll keep its shape and hold all

your carefully arranged ingredients in place, whether you're going on a picnic,

biscuit packaging machine a

lunch box, or taking a road trip. It won't gather condensation and induce sogginess

the way a zipper-lock bag will, and, because these wrap jobs hold up even once your

sandwich is sliced in half, it'll make eating on the go a whole lot easier and neater,

too. All you'll need is parchment or waxed paper and, if you're working with a hot

sandwich or planning to slice the sandwich in half, a sheet of aluminum foil.






Wrapping a flat sandwich isn't entirely unlike wrapping a present, only you

won't need any tape or ribbon to make this one stay in place. To begin, you'll

need a rectangular sheet of parchment (or waxed) paper—you can buy the precut sandwich

papers, which'll make measurement even easier, or just cut about a foot off the roll.










Set the paper in front of you on a work surface, vertically (i.e., portrait, not

landscape, orientation). Then place your sandwich in the center of the paper; if your

bread has a discernible top, bottom, and sides, set it so the top is away from you.










Next, bring the top and bottom edges of the paper together over the center of the

sandwich and line them up. Fold the edges down by half an inch, crease sharply, and then

continue folding in half-inch turns, creasing each time, until the fold is flush with the

surface of the sandwich. Depending on the size of your sandwich and the length of your

paper, the number of folds will vary. Try not to squish the sandwich!






The left and right sides of the paper will now look like flattened tubes. Starting on

one of the tubes, use your fingers to press the opposing edges into the center, forming a

pleated triangle. Press down and crease the triangle's edges, including at the base of

the sandwich, before carefully folding it underneath. Repeat this process on the other

side of the sandwich, and voilà, you're done!






The act of creasing and folding, accompanied by the sandwich's weight, will keep

the whole thing nice and secure. If you'd like, you can cut the sandwich down the

center, perpendicular to the crease, and then wrap the halves together in a sheet of

aluminum foil. Otherwise, simply stick your tidy little package in your lunch box, a brown

paper bag, or a rectangular container, and you're good to go.






If you're working with a hot sandwich, you can use this same method with nothing

but a piece of aluminum foil, though skipping the parchment paper may make it a bit harder

to eat on the go, since foil may cling to parts of your sandwich a little more doggedly.






Next up, we have long sandwiches, like subs and wraps, to contend with. Wrapping these

sandwiches can be a little tricky to get the hang of, since measuring out the paper will

depend on the size of your sandwich. A good rule of thumb is to cut a piece of parchment

paper that's about one and a half times the length of the sub or wrap.






Begin by setting your paper vertically in front of you, just like with the flat-

sandwich technique. Then place the sandwich diagonally across the paper, near one of the

corners. Now lift that corner up and over the sandwich, pressing it flush. From there,

roll the sandwich in paper toward the far opposite corner, folding in the sides as you go.

Herein new lattice unit cells with buckling load 261–308% higher than the classical

octet unit cell were reported. Lattice structures have been widely used in sandwich

structures as lightweight core. While stretching dominated and bending dominated cells

such as octahedron, tetrahedron and octet have been designed for lightweight structures,

it is plausible that other cells exist which might perform better than the existing

counterparts. Machine learning technique was used to discover new optimal unit cells. An

8-node cube containing a maximum of 27 elements, which extended into an eightfold unit

cell, was taken as representative volume element (RVE). Numerous possible unit cells

within the RVE were generated using permutations and combinations through MATLAB coding.

Uniaxial compression tests using ANSYS were performed to form a dataset, which was used to

train machine learning algorithms and form predictive model. The model was then used to

further optimize the unit cells. A total of 20 optimal symmetric unit cells were predicted

which showed 51–57% higher capacity than octet cell. Particularly, if the solid rods were

replaced by porous biomimetic rods, an additional 130–160% increase in buckling

resistance was achieved. Sandwich structures made of these 3D printed optimal symmetric

unit cells showed 13–35% higher flexural strength than octet cell cored counterpart. This

study opens up new opportunities to design high-performance sandwich structures.






A lattice structure is formed by stacking lattice unit cells cheek by jowl in any

desired order. The entire lattice structure’s performance depends on the construction of

the lattice unit cell it is made of. Extensive research has been carried out in design,

fabrication and evaluation of these lightweight architectures. Depending on the number of

struts and number of joints in a single unit cell, it can be classified as a stretching or

bending dominated structure1. In a stretching dominated structure, the primary mode of

failure is through stretching while in a bending dominated structure the primary mode of

failure is through bending. Compared to foam and bending dominated lattice structures,

stretching dominated lattice structures were proven to perform better in terms of strength

and stiffness1. Several lattice unit cells were proposed with superior performance and

various advantages in structural, thermal, impact, vibrational and acoustic

domains2,3,4,5,6. Octet lattice structure is one of the best truss-based lattice

structures among stretching dominated lattice unit cells3. Gyroid and double gyroid

structures manufactured through additive manufacturing exhibited decent impact absorption

capabilities and additional advantage with the same stiffness in all the axial

directions4. Hollow micro truss lattice structures were studied for their enhanced energy

absorption5. Hybrid sandwich panels made of pyramid truss structures as core were

fabricated with higher damping performance6. Several numerical and experimental studies

were conducted by various groups to reinforce the proposed structures. Linear and

nonlinear effective properties of lattice structure were studied using continuum theory

models3,7,8,9,10. The effective properties of octet lattice structure were initially

studied by Deshpande and Fleck3.






The fabrication techniques and structural performance of lattice cored sandwich

structures were explored by different groups11,12,13,14. Selective laser melting (SLM) is

used to manufacture bio-inspired kagome sandwich panels with titanium core. The

compression and shear properties of these sandwich structures are evaluated and proved to

perform better than honeycomb aerospace core structures11. Stereolithography (SLA) is used

to print several lattice cores made of epoxy-based photopolymer resin and sandwich plates

made of carbon fiber reinforced face sheets which are co-cured in two-stage manufacturing

process. The compression and flexural properties of the sandwich structures were

evaluated12. Bending response of graded lattice core sandwich structures is evaluated

which achieves minimum weight sandwich structures13. Silicon rubber molds were used to

fabricate CFRP tetrahedral core sandwich structures and tested for compression and shear

strengths14. It is known that lattice core in sandwich structures plays an important role

in the overall load carrying capacity of the sandwich. With the advancement in 3D

printing, lattice core with very complex geometrical configurations can be manufactured.

Therefore, further improvement in the load carrying capacity in lattice cored sandwich

depends on optimization of lattice cores.
