In this study, experimental and computational approaches are used to explore the influence
of relative position parameter (ratio of the axial distance between the impactor and the pin to …

In the present study, the nonlinear free vibration of functionally graded fiber-reinforced
composite hexagon honeycomb sandwich cylindrical shells is investigated with …

Compared with conventional symmetric sandwich structures with two identical face-sheets
and uniform core, geometrically asymmetric sandwich structures (GASSs) enable better …

Previous studies used to take the regular configuration as the element of the cellular
structures, then carry out geometric optimization on the initial structures. Nowadays, more …

This paper investigated the initial yield behavior of curved honeycombs under combined
shear-compression loads with particular attention to the curvature, loading angle, and …

Weight reduction and materials sustainability are becoming of primary importance for marine
structures. A solution to both issues could lie in the application of all-metal sandwich …

Applying carbon fiber composite honeycomb in curved sandwich shells faces challenges
due to the saddle-shaped bending surface in hexagon configurations and potential damage …

CFRP/honeycomb sandwiches often fail prematurely due to interface debonding when
subjected to bending loads. In this paper, three kinds of toughening interfaces were …

This research explores the significance of structural modifications on the energy absorption
and ballistic response of a cylindrical composite structure exposed to high velocity impact …

The geometric imperfections in honeycomb cells inevitably arise during the manufacturing
process and can affect the honeycomb's mechanical performance. Hence, it is critical to …
