Abstract: The quasistatic and dynamic compressive behaviors of carbon fiberreinforced plastic (CFRP) Kagome lattice structures subjected to quasistatic load and lowvelocity impact were investigated experimentally and numerically. ...

Abstract: The quasi-static and dynamic compressive behaviors of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) Kagome lattice structures subjected to quasi-static load and low-velocity impact were investigated experimentally and numerically. ...

Abstract: The ballistic perforation of sandwich plates comprising two identical/unidentical aluminum alloy face sheets and an aluminum foam core is investigated to gain insights into the factors governing the penetration processes. ...

Abstract: The resistance of sandwich cylinders with density-graded foam cores to internal blast loadings is investigated theoretically and numerically. Four kinds of density-graded foam core are designed, such as positive, negative, ...

Abstract: Honeycomb mechanical metamaterials with semi-re-entrant, square and hexagonal cells were prepared by using continuous twill weave carbon fiber prepreg. Out-of-plane crushing behavior of carbon fiber reinforced polymer ...

Abstract: The failure behavior of geometrically asymmetric sandwich beams with a metal foam core is analytically and experimentally investigated. New initial failure modes of the asymmetric sandwich beams are observed under threepoint ...

Abstract: The dynamic behavior of sandwich columns with aluminum face-sheets and hexagonal honeycomb core under axial low-velocity impact is investigated experimentally and theoretically. In the impact tests, two typical competing ...
