Sandwich structures usually consist of high-strength thin skins bonded to a significantly
thicker, less dense, and weaker core material. Sandwich structures are most useful in …

" Structural and Failure Mechanics of Sandwich Composites" by Leif A. Carlsson and
George A. Kardomateas focuses on some important deformation and failure modes of …

An investigation was conducted of failure modes and criteria for their occurrence in
composite sandwich beams. The initiation of the various failure modes depends on the …

The problem of low-speed impact of a one-dimensional sandwich panel by a rigid cylindrical
projectile is considered. The core of the sandwich panel is functionally graded such that the …

The behavior of foam core sandwich (FCS) and polymer pin-reinforced foam core sandwich
(PRFCS) panels was experimentally explored for flatwise compression and flexural …

The formation of resin fillet between honeycomb core cell walls and skin in light sandwich
structures was studied to gain a better understanding of the bonding process. A method was …

The area of sandwich construction has been an active field of research for more than five
decades. During this period, a large number of mathematical models for structural sandwich …

A simple and cost-effective manufacturing process was employed to prepare composite
honeycomb sandwich panels for aerospace applications. Carbon fiber–epoxy matrix …

Sandwich composite static and fatigue testing results indicated the predominant failure to be
the core damage followed by interfacial debonding, resin cracking and fiber rupture. Under …

An experimental study has been conducted to investigate the effects of elevated temperature
and humidity on the strength and failure mode of carbon/BMI-Nomex composite sandwich …
