3 Introduction 3 Sandwich structures ~ fibre reinforced plastic skins + a cellular core = superior weight specific stiffness and strength properties In recent years, many researchers have proposed various core designs with an improved quasi-static and dynamic performance : polymeric and aluminium foams, metallic trusses, honeycomb cores (hexagonal, triangular) and prismatic cores (diamond lattice and corrugation).

4 Introduction 4 Previous studies have suggested that square honeycomb cores having a higher relative density are preferable for use in high severity loading situations, such as blast loading as a result of their superior crushing resistance and in-plane tensile strength (Wierzbicki et al, 1983). YearDesignNovel TechniquesResults Coté et. al. 2004 -304 stainless steel (SS) sheets -6x6 cells - Slotting and then brazing the assembly -compared the SS core with AL hexagonal honeycomb core, same relative density and cell aspect ratio. -SS core offered a higher compression strength and absorb more energy compared

5 Introduction 5 YearDesignNovel TechniquesResults Russel et. al. 2008 -CFRP -6 x 6 cells - Slotting, assembling and adhesively bonding composite laminate sheets with various fibre orientations; [0/90], [±45]. -CFRP core with a relative density of 0.2, with a weave [0/90] for specimen based on 6 x 6 cells gives a higher compressive strength and energy absorption

6 Introduction 6 YearDesignNovel TechniquesResults Deshpande et. al. 2009 -GFRP/PMI foam The cell walls of the square honeycomb comprise sandwich plates made from glass fiber/epoxy composite skins and a PMI foam core. The square honeycomb core shows promise as it has a substantially higher through- thickness compressive strength than an equivalent sandwich panel with a monolithic composite core.

8 Motivation 8 The current work focuses on manufacturing novel square honeycomb cores and with recyclable materials The compressive responses when subjected to uniform lateral loading are then investigated. The specific strength and specific energy absorption are explained quantitatively and then compared with other competing cores design.

19 Specific Energy and Energy Absorption 19 The compressive strength and energy absorption of all the square honeycomb cores were divided by weight of the core, to yield a strength-to-weight ratio or specific strength (σ sp ) and specific energy absorption (E sp ) at a strain ε = 0.7 are compared using this intrinsic property. The specific strength and specific energy absorption of the square honeycomb sandwich structures

20 Specific Energy and Energy Absorption 20 The specific strength and specific energy absorption of the competing core types design

21 Specific Energy and Energy Absorption 21 The specific strength and specific energy absorption of the competing PP core types design

22 Conclusions 22 The manufacturing route and compressive responses of the square honeycomb cores of three different materials subjected to uniform lateral compression were discussed in detail. The following conclusions are made: 1.The square honeycomb cores were made from slotting technique and they have outstanding properties in terms of the σ sp and E sp compared with other commercial core. The CFRP cores are the best type of material for this novel design and fabrication process. 2. The SRPP square honeycomb sandwich structure is a new novel sandwich structure where a thin PP film is used to bond the skins and core, and made them 100% recyclable sandwich structure. This potential core type design and material is a suitable candidate for aerospace applications in a near future.

23 Further Works 23 1.Modeling with FE 2.Experiments would be extended to transverse shear properties using Arcan testing technique and the behaviour of square honeycomb sandwich structure under various dynamic loadings.
