Energy absorption and low velocity impact response of polyurethane foam filled pyramidal lattice core sandwich panels
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract In this paper, the polyurethane foam filled pyramidal lattice core sandwich panel is fabricated in order to improve the energy absorption and low velocity impact resistance. Based on the compression tests, a synergistic effect that the foam filled sandwich panels have a greater load carrying capacity compared to the sum of the unfilled specimens and the filled polyurethane block is found. Moreover, the energy absorption efficiency of foam filled sandwich panels with higher relative density (2.58% and 3.17%) lattice cores is lower than that of the unfilled specimens when the compressive strain is small, while it exhibits superior when the compressive strain arrives at about 0.25, and the superiority enlarges as the strain increase. However, the energy absorption of foam filled sandwich panels owning lower relative density (1.83%) lattice cores is inferior to that of the unfilled specimens. During the low velocity impact tests, it is found that the contact duration between the impactor and the sandwich specimens is shorter and the impact peak load has a slight increase for the foam filled specimens.
