Abstract:
The demand for an insert on composite sandwich structures to aid in the arrestment of face-core delamination is of great need. This research studies the use of a damage arrestment device (DAD) that connects the carbon fiber face sheets to the foam core to find whether an increase in the structural integrity of the sandwich beam results. Experimental analysis was employed to test the samples and was verified by a theoretical and finite element approach. The mechanical properties of LTM45/CF1803 pre-impregnated carbon fiber and Last-A-foam FR 6710 polyvinylchloride foam were experimentally ana

Abstract:
The random wetlay process is used to make fiber-reinforced thermoplastic sheets that can be compression molded into composite panels at little cost. By utilizing these composite panels as the facesheets of honeycomb sandwich structures, it is possible to greatly increase the bending stiffness of the composite without adding significant weight. The random wetlay composite facesheets used in this research consisted of 25% E-glass fibers and 75% PET by weight. The thickness uniformity of the facesheets was difficult to control.

Abstract:
The work in this dissertation deals with the global structural response and local damage effects of a simply supported natural fibre composite sandwich beam subjected to a four-point bend. For the global structural response, we are investigating the flexural behaviour of the composite sandwich beam. We begin by using the principle of virtual work to derive the linear and nonlinear Timoshenko beam theory. Based on these theories, we then proceed to develop the respective finite element models and then implement the numerical algorithm in MATLAB. Comparing the numerical results with experimental

Abstract:
Failure modes for sandwich beams of GFRP laminate skins and Nomex honeycomb core are investigated. Theoretical models using honeycomb mechanics and classical beam theory are described. A failure mode map for loading under 3-point bending, is constructed, showing the dependence of failure mode and load on the ratio of skin thickness to span length and honeycomb relative density. Beam specimens are tested in 3-point bending. The effect of honeycomb direction is also examined. The experimental data agree satisfactorily with the theoretical predictions. The results reveal the important role of cor

Abstract:
In an effort to achieve lighter and more economical space structures, a new patented steel composite member has been suggested and used in the construction of some steel roof structures. This special element has a sandwich construction composed of some strips of steel plates placed longitudinally along a helical wire core. The function of the helical core is to transfer the shear between the flange plates and increase the sectional inertia of the resulting composite member by keeping the flange plates at a desired distance from each other. Because of the lack of research, design engineers usua

Abstract:
The use of composite sandwich panels is rapidly increasing in the aerospace industry. In these applications, thin composite face sheets are typically co-cured to foam or honeycomb cores. One of the greatest concerns in these types of applications is face-core delamination because it can ultimately lead to catastrophic failure of the structure. Further, the effects of foreign object damage on composite sandwich structures are often catastrophic. Damage to the structure is often undetectable through visual inspection, leading to concerns of unknown interlaminar damage through the life of the str

Abstract:
Optimization under uncertainties of structures is a challenging field due to the requirements of high computational resources. The typical approaches include reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) and robust design optimization (RDO), which provide more realistic optimal designs than the conventional deterministic optimization approaches. For complex engineering structures, performing RBDO and RDO becomes computationally intractable or even infeasible. Thus, there is a requirement to employ efficient uncertainty quantification methods to perform the optimization under uncertainty of adva

Stiffness and strength models are derived for simply supported composite sandwich panels comprised of fibre-reinforced face sheets and polymer cores subject to symmetric four point bending and uniformly distributed loading. Optimal trajectories for minimum mass design are calculated using the models and situated on failure mechanism maps. A stiffness constraint is also derived to omit beam designs of excessive compliance. Analytical models were validated through an extensive series of experiments, considering beams comprised of GFRP face sheets with ROHACELL 51-IG and extruded polystyrene (EPS
