The current paper is intended to provide an overview on the current state of the art for
sandwich structures marine applications to support their wider application and identify the …

Composite materials are now used throughout the marine industry but their susceptibility to
impact events is still an unresolved problem. There is a huge body of work in the area …

The escalating use of fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) in aerospace, defense,
automotive, and renewable energy industries underscores the need for a comprehensive …

Impact damage can degrade the flexural strength of composite sandwich structures by over
50% due to a loss of skin support inducing localized skin buckling. Various self-healing …

We report the enhanced low-velocity impact performance of geometrically tailored
honeycomb structures enabled via stereolithography additive manufacturing. Geometrical …

Impact damage can significantly reduce the strength of composite sandwich panels, giving
rise to large factors of safety in design. A self-healing sandwich panel was designed and …

Designing lightweight high-performance materials that can sustain high impulsive loadings
is of great interest to marine and civil applications. When designing tough, strong new …

This work examines the performance of composite panels when subjected to underwater
impulsive loads. The scaled fluid–structure experimental methodology developed by …

The lattice structure of Schwarz Primitive triply periodic minimal surfaces (P-TPMS) has
recently attracted significant attention. This attention arises from its unique topological …

An experimental study has been conducted to examine the effects of two different types of
impact damage on the blast performance of sandwich composites. Sandwich composite …
