Poly (p-phenylene benzoisoxazole) (abbreviation: PBO) paper honeycomb core (PPHC) is gradually being used as a novel honeycomb material for lightweight structures in high temperature environment. However, compressive properties of PBO paper can hardly be obtained accurately due to the thin thickness and easy-to-buckling of the paper. Therefore, the Short Span Test Method is applied to obtain the compressive strength of PBO paper. The compressive strength and failure of PBO paper are characterized experimentally for the first time. The strength of compression is then used in theoretical formula to study the compressive behaviors of PPHC and the reasonable agreement with the experimental results indicates the validity of the compressive strength. Furthermore, the failure mode of PPHC subjected to compressive loads is obtained, which presents the importance of the accurate characterization on the compressive strength of PBO paper.

A patented Durable Redundant Joint (DRJ) concept featuring multiple adhesive load-paths, via a novel composite preform insert, is being considered for joining composite sandwich panel segments. Applications are wide ranging from spacecraft bus structure to launch vehicle primary structure (i.e. interstage cylinders and payload fairings). Numerical and experimental investigations were performed to assess the DRJ’s performance. A fracture-based approach was used to evaluate this design. Ply-level mechanical properties for the material systems were generated, and a double cantilever beam coupon was designed and tested to estimate the Mode I critical energy release rate for the interface between two different composite prepreg material systems. The DRJ was tested and compared to testing of the more conventional splice joint (CSJ) design. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) inserts were used at the free edges of the joints to simulate debonds between the doubler and facesheet laminates. The DRJ coupons reached 32% greater in-plane tensile failure load compared to the CSJ coupons. Furthermore, the predicted increased strength for the DRJ design compared to the CSJ design was in remarkably good agreement with test data. Using the insight gained from these studies, three design attributes were investigated relative to increasing damage tolerance characteristics of the DRJ: (1) Insert stiffness, (2) Relative length between the doubler and the insert, and (3) The use of tapers at the ends of doublers.

A non-linear energy-based analytical approach to design flat sandwich panels resistant to bird strike is presented. The approach is then complemented by numerical simulation in Abaqus using smooth particle hydrodynamics to model the bird and a non-linear stress-strain model for the core material. Flat sandwich panels were designed to deform and just fail when the maximum deflections are reached for given strike energies. The panels designed with this approach were tested using gelatin birds and two different material combinations with non-toughened and toughened facesheet and core materials. The analytical and numerical approaches were found to be conservative as they predicted failure onset for the bird energies selected while the tests showed no damage. The maximum deflection and maximum strains at different locations of the panels were well predicted by the numerical analysis, but the predictions departed significantly from the tests after the first peak was reached.

In this study, dynamic explicit analysis was performed to examine the air-blast performance of various hybrid sandwich designs in terms of face plate deflections and energy dissipation capacity under the conventional weapons effects program (CONWEP) air-blast loads ranging from 3 kg to 8 kg trinitrotoluene for stand-off distance ranges from 150 mm to 200 mm. The blast resistance of honeycomb sandwich configurations was evaluated using steel honeycomb with different core topologies, crushable Al foam-filled steel honeycomb, and steel or steel with 3D Kevlar/polypropylene laminate employing fiber metal laminate (FML) front face. For an accurate prediction of the deformation mechanism of all steel parts, the Johnson-Cook (J-C) model was used. The composite failure criteria of Hashin, Puck, and Matzenmiller were implemented to accurately examine the fiber and matrix damage behavior. The novel hybrid design of the honeycomb sandwich structure’s blast resistance is improved by the employment of foam-filled honeycomb, an FML front face, and a circular honeycomb core. In comparison to other sandwich configurations, a novel designed hybrid sandwich construction composed of foam filled circular honeycomb with FML front facing and steel back facing (FCH-1KP0.5) achieved the highest blast resistance due to its lowest face deflection with the smallest plastic dissipation energy.

The specific energy absorption (SEA) of INT_6, whose crashworthiness is best in bionic honeycombs. A gradient design of INT_6 is implemented to further increase its crashworthiness. Multi-objective optimization design (MOD), which aims to simultaneously increase the SEA and reduce the peak crushing force, is adopted to determine the optimal parameters of each layer of graded INT_6.

In this study, sandwich panels are presented with polylactic acid (PLA) core made through the FDM method. The face sheets of the panels are made out of aluminum 3105 alloy. The mechanical properties of the proposed samples were investigated under flexural quasi-static load. Different panels were tested by a three-point flexural test to determine their collapse properties; moreover, cubic specimens were exposed to quasi-static compression load. The results confirmed the effective role of layering type in the FDM method on the collapse properties of the sandwich panel. Results showed that type of the main pattern extension can affect the collapse properties. A comparison of the cubic samples under three different quasi-static compressive loading indicated that the collapse properties and absorbed energy of the samples depend on the loading direction. The proposed lightweight structures absorb high energy in comparison with ordinary one which was investigated in this paper; thus they can be an ideal structure for industries. Numerical modeling was another part of the study which was done by LS-DYNA and good agreement between numerical and experimental results was observed.

Infusible thermoplastic Elium® family of resins from Arkema have garnered much attention in recent years as a possible replacement for thermoset resins in laminate and sandwich composite manufacturing for wind blade applications due to its ease of recyclability and the ability to utilize existing manufacturing processes without imposing complicated variations. However, physical and mechanical properties of the proposed Elium® based thermoplastic composites must be comparable to existing epoxy (thermoset) based composites using manufacturing processes relevant for large wind turbine blades. A 13-meter-long demonstration blade was manufactured for that purpose and sandwich samples were obtained from that project for a detailed study. This paper details three-point flexural properties of unidirectional E-glass fiber reinforced acrylic and epoxy based sandwich panels with identical balsa wood core materials. In addition, to evaluate the relative merit considering debond failure mode, the interfacial critical strain energy release rate, predominantly in mode-1, was compared via single cantilever beam testing. In sandwich composites constructed with balsa wood core material, resin uptake by the balsa core is traditionally impeded via the insertion of a scrim material at the facesheet to core interface. Results revealed that inclusion of scrim mesh layer at the facesheet to core interface reduced flexural properties and strain energy release rates in panels infused with acrylic resin but did not significantly reduce these properties in epoxy infused facesheets.

Although the best configuration of the joints used to connect a common GFRP sandwich panel with the main structures is the adhesively bonded one, that permit high static and fatigue performances as well as to avoid stress concentrations, mechanical or hybrid joints are still widely used in the industrial field. After a preliminary theoretical design, the optimal configuration of an end adhesively bonded double-lap joint constituted by a simple insert as internal adherent and the same face sheets as external adherent, has been researched. In detail, several experimental tests and successive numerical simulations under tensile and bending loading, performed by varying the main influence parameters as the overlap length and the material of the internal insert (aluminum, steel, CFRP), have been carried out. In brief, the experimental and numerical analyses have shown that, due to the limited effects of the stiffness unbalancing of the joints, as well as to the appreciable peel stress values associated with tensile and especially bending loading, the optimal joint configuration is obtained in practice by using an insert made by CFRP with an overlap length equal to about a double the theoretical overlap value. Also, due to the different damage tolerance of the epoxy adhesive to the shear and peel stresses, the accurate strength prediction of such joints has to be performed by assess the failure processes that occur at the two attach points of the double lap joint. In detail, the delamination growth that can occurs at the attach point of the face sheets, can be predicted by using a delamination criterion along with a point stress approach, whereas the unstable delamination growth that can occur at the opposite point of attach of the insert, can be evaluated by using a simple delamination criterion with the classical approach of the maximum stress.

To develop a new type of bionic curved sandwich plate, it is necessary to first develop experimental methods and evaluation criteria for curved plates. Thus, this paper focuses on an aluminum cylindrical honeycomb plate and proposes two types of clamping methods for radial compression tests. Using finite element simulation, radial compression tests were carried out, and the mechanical characteristics under different clamping methods were studied. The results showed that (1) the two types of clamping methods have significant effects on the radial compression performance, and each has its own characteristics. The influence mechanism was explored from the perspective of the deformation shape of the sample and the sliding direction of the foot. (2) Clamping methods were given with regard to different experimental purposes or engineering application objects (backgrounds), and three clamping methods that are easy to prepare and have great universality were also presented. This research provides an important theoretical basis for the development of curved plates, radial compression test methods for curved plates and the formulation of corresponding test standards.

In this paper the vibration correlation technique (VCT) has been used as a nondestructive method for predicting the buckling load of the composite lattice-core sandwich conical shells. This technique is capable of predicting the buckling load of different structures without reaching the failure point through modal testing. The composite lattice-core sandwich conical shell has been fabricated using a filament winding process. To perform the expriment, the fundamental natural frequency of the specimen is measured under stepped axial compression loading. The procedure is followed up without actually reaching the instability point when the structure collapses and is no longer usable. A finite element model has also been built in ABAQUS in order to determine the correlation between natural frequency and applied compressive load. A comparison of the results indicated that the VCT has provided a reliable estimate of the buckling load of composite lattice-core sandwich conical shells, especially when the structure is loaded up to at least 66% of the experimental buckling load and accuracy of the VCT decreases when the maximum load is lower than 43% of the buckling load. Results also revealed that the linear fitted curve is unsuitable for the correlation between frequency of vibration and applied load in order to predict buckling load.

The composite lattice-core sandwich conical shell has been fabricated using a filament winding process. To perform the expriment, the fundamental natural frequency of the specimen is measured under stepped axial compression loading. The procedure is followed up without actually reaching the instability point when the structure collapses and is no longer usable. A finite element model has also been built in ABAQUS in order to determine the correlation between natural frequency and applied compressive load. A comparison of the results indicated that the VCT has provided a reliable estimate of the buckling load of composite lattice-core sandwich conical shells, especially when the structure is loaded up to at least 66% of the experimental buckling load and accuracy of the VCT decreases when the maximum load is lower than 43% of the buckling load. Results also revealed that the linear fitted curve is unsuitable for the correlation between frequency of vibration and applied load in order to predict buckling load.","PeriodicalId":17215,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sandwich Structures & Materials","volume":"24 1","pages":"2124 - 2141"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2022-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44975665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
