Experimental Investigations of Compressed Sandwich Composite/Honeycomb Cylindrical Shells
Source abstract
Abstract
This article explains in some details the behaviour of thick, deep cylindrical sandwich panels subjected to compressive loads. In general, experimental results indicated that two different forms of failure have been observed – the first corresponds to the overall buckling and the second to the facesheet wrinkling. The obtained experimentally damages of shells are verified and validated with the use of the FE analysis, 2-D and 3-D both in the linear and non-linear approach. The unidirectional strain gauges were applied to detect the initiation of the overall buckling mode.
