A consistent set of equations is given for honeycomb sandwich shells, wherein each layer of the sandwich is treated separately. The theory allows for the effects of thick cores, non-constant core thickness and arbitrary anisotropic faces. Analytical solutions are obtained for constant thickness and tapered beams, a flat plate, and a circular cylinder subjected to simple loading conditions. The principal use of such solutions is in the testing of finite elements which are intended to model honeycomb sandwich construction.

Sandwich construction consists of two thin composite or metal facesheets separated by a core material. Despite extensive researches on the sandwich constructions, their mechanical properties and failure behaviours are still not fully understand. The objective of the paper is to use a experimental and theoretical predicting failure mode for sandwich beam consisting of GFRP facesheets and Nomex honeycomb core. Two kinds of composite sandwich beams are observed in quasi-static three-point bending and indentation test.

The 899th Lecture to be given before the Royal Aeronautical Society was held on 11th February 1954 at the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Storey's Gate, London, S.W.I. Mr. G. R. Edwards, C.B.E., F.R.Ae.S., Vice-President of the Society, presided. Introducing the Lecturer, Dr. D. Williams, M.I.Mech.E., F.R.Ae.S., Mr. Edwards said that Dr. Williams was really too well known to need any introduction; his activities had been devoted in recent years to structural problems as applied to aeroplanes. Without reciting his attainments in detail, the job he had tackled in recent years at the Royal Aircraft Establishment and about which he had written papers, covered such subjects as vibration, wing flutter, sandwich construction, the effect of blast on aeroplanes, energy theorems, fatigue, dynamic loading by gusts and landing impacts, water-borne runways and nose-wheel shimmy, a variety of subjects one or all of which had caused most of them a great deal of anguish at one time or another.
