Lightweight sandwich structures for marine applications: a review (2021, background): “Honeycomb panels combine low weight with high stiffness and also with exceptional compression [145] and energy absorption properties [72].”
A model to predict low-velocity impact response and damage in sandwich composites (2008, methodology): “The spring–mass models [19–21] and energy-balance models [2,20,22] are two of the few analytical solutions proposed to study the impact response of composite sandwich structures due to the complex interaction between the composite facesheet and core during deformation and failure.”
Plastic Deformation, Failure and Energy Absorption of Sandwich Structures with Metallic Cellular Cores (2010, background): “Cantwell and co-workers [36–40] carried out low velocity tests on the sandwich beams made of a wide range of materials, and a large number of different failure modes have been obtained.”
Static and low-velocity impact behavior of sandwich beams with closed-cell aluminum-foam core in three-point bending (2008, unknown): “Dynamic models, such as mass-spring model [2,10] and energy balance model [13], were used to predict the peak load and the load history of sandwich structures.”
