The Impact

In this paper, the impact response of bi-directional corrugated core sandwich structures was investigated. The core and skins were made of E-glass/epoxy laminated composites. Additive manufacturing technology was used to print the molds applied to fabricate the cores. The influence of different periods, i.e. T = 30, 37.5, 50 and 75 mm, of the double-cosine corrugated core on the impact response of the panels was evaluated. In addition, some other panels with regular corrugated cores were manufactured to evaluate the impact response of the bi-directional corrugated core structures. A finite element modeling was also carried out to analyze the impact behavior of the samples. The empirical measurements and the numerical predictions showed that the panels with the bi-directional corrugated core have a significant improvement in the absorbed energy under impact loading at each given period. It was also manifested that the panel consisting of the bi-directional corrugated core with T = 37.5 mm has the highest specific energy absorption.

The Impact

The effect of extreme cold temperatures on the quasi-static indentation and the low velocity impact behavior of woven carbon/epoxy composite sandwich panels with Nomex honeycomb core was investigated. Impact tests were performed at room temperature, –70°C, and –150°C. Two sizes of hemispherical impactor were used combined to three different impactor masses. All the impact tests were performed at the same initial impact velocity. The effect of temperature on the impact behavior is investigated by studying the load history, load-displacement curves and transmitted energy as a function of time curves. Impact damage induced at various temperatures was studied using different non-destructive and destructive techniques. Globally, more damages are induced with impact temperature decreasing. The results also show that the effect of temperature on the impact behavior is function of the impactor size.

The Impact

Glass/Vinylester composite laminates are comprehensively characterised to assess its impact response behaviour under moisture exposure in marine structures. An instrumented drop weight impact machine is utilised to determine the impact responses of dry and immersed specimens in normal, salted and sea water. The specimens, which had three different thicknesses, were subjected to water exposure for a very long period of over 20 months before tested in a low-velocity impact experiment. Water uptake was measured primarily to study the degradation profiles of GRP laminates after being permeated by water. Matrix dissolution and interfacial damage observed on the laminates after prolonged moisture exposure while the absorption behaviour was found typically non-Fickian. The weight of the composite plates firstly increased because of water diffusion up to month 15 and then decreased due to matrix degradation. The specimens with 3, 6 and 9 mm thickness exhibited maximum water absorption corresponding to 2.6%, 0.7% and 0.5% weight gain, respectively. In general, the results indicated that water uptake and impact properties were affected by thickness and less by water type. Impact properties of prolonged immersed specimens reduced remarkably, and intense failure modes detected almost in all cases. The least sensitive to impact damage were wet specimens with 9 mm thickness as they indicated similar maximum load and absorbed energy for different impact energies.
