Modelling of composite sandwich structures with honeycomb core subjected to high-velocity impact (2010, background): “Some authors analyse high velocity impact of sandwich panels using a model with an equivalent homogeneous material obtained by the experimental stress strain curve of the honeycomb [2].”
A review: Fibre metal laminates, background, bonding types and applied test methods (2011, methodology): “Later, a much stiffer ARALL which consists carbon fibres instead of aramid fibres, the CARALL Laminates, had been investigated in DUT [12].”
The low velocity impact response of foam-based sandwich panels (2012, background): “Reyes and Cantwell [4] conducted high velocity impact tests on sandwich panels based on fibre–metal laminate skins and an aluminium foam core and noted that the introduction of metal layers into the composite skins increased”
Experimental investigation of energy-absorption characteristics of components of sandwich structures (2007, methodology): “First, the energy-absorbing characteristics of the plate material in a sandwich structure are investigated using novel dynamic inertia tests, paralleled by detailed finite-element simulations.”
Static and low-velocity impact behavior of sandwich beams with closed-cell aluminum-foam core in three-point bending (2008, unknown): “The perforation behavior [21] and the blast loading behavior [22] were also investigated.”
