Panel structure

When the strings of cells have all been connected, you are ready to assemble the rest of the panel. 

For the ESPMs I made, I used precut 28 x 30 sheet aluminum that was about Vie of an thick. For the side bar/framing material I used 1 by /4 aluminum bar stock cut into four 28 pieces for each panel. For the covers I used 3/32 thick Plexiglass that was cut at the hardware store to 28 x 30 . When you purchase a cut Plexiglass sheet, it usually has a thin film on either side to protect the surface from scratches. Leave this film on while you drill and until you are ready to finally assemble the panel. It will protect the Plexiglass from scratches during construction. 

With all components cut to size, the next step is to drill the holes for the screws in the side bars, panel back, and plastic cover and two holes for the take off leads on the aluminum panel back. 

For these particular panels I wanted to have four screws along each edge for a total of 16 screws to hold the structure together. More screws can be used if you wish. To drill the side holes, c-clamp the three components together, with the aluminum sheet on the bottom, the Plexiglass cover on top of that, and the side bars on the very top. 

Align all the pieces to each other and c-clamp all four edges so that nothing moves while drilling the holes. Then, drill the holes. Drilling the holes in this manner assures that the screw holes will line up as they should. You can drill each piece separately, but be sure that your measurements and drilling technique are very accurate.

Figure 6.2. (Upper panel) The four major classes of organic osmolytes (I) sugars and polyhydric alcohols (polyols) (II) amino acids and amino acid derivatives (III) methylated ammonium and sulfonium compounds and (IV) urea. (Figure modified after Somero and Yancey, 1997.) (Lower panel) Structures of charged osmolytes accumulated in extremely halophilic archaea (after Martin et al., 1999). Note that these osmolytes commonly represent a type of organic osmolyte that is found in many bacteria or eukaryotes to which a charged group has been attached. Typically, the charged group is anionic, for example, a phosphate or a carboxylate group.

The rectangular frame and panel structures are typically used where the dominant hazard is flame.

Unlike water, fire is less a concern with adhesives than with composites. However, flame-resistant adhesives have potential applications in aircraft interior panel structure. In the last two years, some tragic civilian aircraft accidents have prompted the development of flame-resistant adhesives.

Use of reinforced plastics in all construction is growing by millions of pounds yearly. These materials are finding extensive use in ceiling and floor systems, piping, skylights, translucent panels, structural shapes, grating, and the Uke. 

Current codes focus on traditional structures such as bridges, civil or industrial buildings. The last years have seen an increase of new types of structures, such as geodesic domes, tensile structures or solar panel structures that have some characteristics different from the traditional ones, not explicitly considered in the codes. In particular they can have different design lifetime and different failure consequences not directly included in the European standards such as EN 1990 (2002).

On the other hand, the drawback is the complex panel structure that consists of several components, such as the two plastic substrates, two polarizers, and a backlight system, which is disadvantageous for ultrathin and ultrasoft panels. 

Other applications utilizing blow-molding technology include front-bumper beams, rear-window shelves, and air ducts under instrument panel structure. Blow molding is utilized in these applications due to substantially lower tooling costs over injection molding.
