1. Structural Health Monitoring of Sandwich Structures Based on Dynamic Analysis
Abstract This work aims to contribute to the development of SHM systems based on vibration methods to be applied on sandwich structures. The main objective is focused on experimental damage identification via changes in the Frequency Response Function (FRF) with the usage of damage metrics. Specimens of sandwich structures made from skins of epoxy resin rein

2. Experimental and numerical evaluation of viscoelastic sandwich beams
Abstract Viscoelastic materials can dissipate a large amount of energy when subjected to cyclic shear deformations, but they have low bearing capacity. Therefore they are often employed as a damping layer in sandwich structures. These sandwich structures present a high damping ratio and simple application. In order to design sandwich structures, many aspects

3. Polyester Pinning Effect on Flexural and Vibrational Characteristics of Foam Filled Honeycomb Sandwich Panels
Abstract Polyester pins are incorporated in polyurethane foam filled honeycomb core sandwich panel to increase the interfacial strength between the faces and core in order to improve the performance of sandwich structures. Foam filled Honeycomb Sandwich panel (FHS) and Pin incorporated Foam filled Honeycomb sandwich panels (PFHS) were developed. The develope

4. Impact Damage Analysis with Stress Continuity Constraints Fulfilment at Damaged-Undamaged Regions and at Layer Interfaces
Abstract Low-velocity impacts have a relevant importance for safety of laminated and sandwich composite structures, because they are highly susceptible to damage. In this paper, a 3D cost effective zig-zag model is developed in order to efficiently simulate such impacts. It a priori fulfills the continuity of out-of-plane stresses at layer interfaces, the co

5. Orthotropic Elastic Properties Assessment of Sandwich Laminates
ABSTRACT: Sandwich structures are nowadays widely used due its excellent characteristics of matching light weight with high bend stiffness. However the complex nature of its composition turns the estimation of its mechanical elastic properties challenging. The objective of the present article is to propose an analytical/experimental model to estimate the ort

6. An Empirical Study on Ballistic Resistance of Sandwich Targets with Aluminum Facesheets and Composite Core
Abstract This study attempted to examine the ballistic resistance of sandwich structures with aluminum facesheets, polyurethane core and polyurethane foam reinforced with aluminum pins. The main focus was on the effect of variations in density of core foam and the effect of adding different percentages of aluminum pins on energy absorption and ballistic resi

7. Practical Approaches of Inducing Controlled Simulated Resin Starvation Areas into Vacuum Infusion Processed Sandwich Composites Used for Characterisation of the Surface Defects and their Outcomes
Abstract Manufacturing defects in the sandwich structures have significant impact on their ultimate strength performance. It is essential to codify some criteria for the effects of such defects on the performance of the structure in order to investigate the quality of sandwich compo-sites and their load-bearing capabilities. By means of such criteria, one ca

8. Viscoelastic Substrates Effects on the Elimination or Reduction of the Sandwich Structures Oscillations Based on the Kelvin-Voigt Model
Abstract Effects of viscoelastic substrates on the sandwich structures oscillations are examined in this paper. In this regard, dynamic response of sandwich annular panels with FG polar orthotropic face sheets resting on viscoelastic substrate is presented. Young’s modulus in the radial and circumferential direction, shear modulus and density of each face

9. The Response of Clamped Shallow Sandwich Arches with Metallic Foam Cores to Projectile Impact Loading
Abstract The dynamic response and energy absorption capabilities of clamped shallow sandwich arches with aluminum foam core were numerically investigated by impacting the arches at mid-span with metallic foam projectiles. The typical deformation modes, deflection response, and core compression of sandwich arches obtained from the tests were used to validate

10. High Order Impact Elastic Analysis of Circular Thick Cylindrical Sandwich Panels Subjected to Multi-mass Impacts
Abstract This study dealt with the dynamic model of composite cylindrical sandwich panels with flexible cores and simply supported boundary conditions under low velocity impacts of multiple large or small masses using a new improved higher order sandwich panel theory (IHSAPT). In-plane stresses were considered for the core and face sheets. Formulation was ba

11. Configuration Study of Structurally Integrated Thermal Protection Systems for a Sub-Orbital Platform
ABSTRACT: The atmospheric hypersonic flight of sub-orbital and space vehicles generates aerodynamic heating and high wall heat fluxes, inducing high temperatures on the vehicle's structures and affecting their mechanical behavior, besides degrading the operation of board equipment. Furthermore, since payload preservation is always mandatory, the use of effic

12. A time-domain finite element model reduction method for viscoelastic linear and nonlinear systems
AbstractMany authors have shown that the effective design of viscoelastic systems can be conveniently carried out by using modern mathematical models to represent the frequency- and temperature-dependent behavior of viscoelastic materials. However, in the quest for design procedures of real-word engineering structures, the large number of exact evaluations o
