Damage Map for a Light-Weight Sandwich Beam under Low Velocity Impact Loading, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Kouchakzadeh, Mohammad Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
The main purpose of this study is the analysis of low velocity impact on the light weight sandwich beams. Some parameters such as weight, failure mode, and impact energy absorption capability are very essential in the design of sandwich beams. The failure mode map is a technique to design sandwich structures, in which no single component is over-designed with respect to other components. In this study, the failure mode map of foam core sandwich beams composed of E-glass/Epoxy and PVC foam is drawn and investigated by an analytical method. For this purpose, displacement relations for bending of a sandwich beam are written using higher order theory. In addition, the sandwich beam is modeled...
