The Cost

Abstract Sandwich composites find increasing use as flexural load bearing lightweight sub-elements rail / ground transportation and marine bodies. In recent year, alternatives to traditional foam and honeycomb cores are being sought. One such development includes filling the cells of the honeycomb core with foam. The increased surface area allows stress forces to dissipate over a larger area than that offered by the honeycomb alone. This allows for use of lowering the cost of the honeycomb cells, and thereby making the design extremely cost-effective. In the present research, phenolic impregnated honeycomb / corrugated cells with polyurethane foam filling has been considered. The intermediate and high velocity impact response of these types of sandwich constructions has been studied. The applications for such cores would be in rail and ground transportation, where impacts in the form of flying debris are common.

Energy Absorbing

Abstract In the current century, building protection is very important in the face of terrorist attacks. The old buildings in Europe are not sufficiently resilient to the loads produced by blasts. We still do not fully understand the effects of different explosives on buildings and human bodies. [1–3] Computing blast loads are different from that of traditional loads and the material selection rules for this type of impact load are diverse. Historical and old buildings cannot be protected simply by new walls and fences. New ways need to be found to improve a building’s resistance to the effects of a blast. It requires sufficiently thin yet strong retrofitted materials in order to reinforce a building’s walls [4–6].
