Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Projectile Impact Testing of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Composite and Layered Corrugated Aluminium and Aluminium Foam Core Sandwich Panels: a Comparative Study(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2012) Odacı, İsmet Kutlay; Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaE-glass/polyester composite and layered corrugated aluminium and aluminium foam core sandwich panels were projectile impact tested between 127 m/s and 190 m/s using a hardened steel sphere projectile. The corrugated aluminium cores, constructed from aluminium fin layers and aluminium interlayers and face sheets, exhibited relatively lower-plateau stresses and higher stress oscillations in the plateau region than aluminium foam cores. The applied brazing process resulted in reductions in the plateau stresses of the corrugated aluminium cores. The sandwich panels with 2- and 3-mm-thick composite face sheets and the epoxy-bonded corrugated aluminium sheet cores were perforated, while the sandwich panels with 5-mm-thick composite face sheets were penetrated in the projectile impact tests. On the other hand, the sandwich panels with aluminium foam cores were only penetrated. A simple comparison between the ballistic limits of the sandwich panels as a function of total weight revealed significant increases in the ballistic limits of the cores with the inclusion of composite face sheets. The determined higher impact resistance of the foam core sandwich panels was attributed to the relatively higher strength of the foam cores investigated and the ability to distribute the incident impulse to a relatively large area of the backing composite plate.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 10Experimental Testing and Full and Homogenized Numerical Models of the Low Velocity and Dynamic Deformation of the Trapezoidal Aluminium Corrugated Core Sandwich(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2014) Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Odacı, İsmet Kutlay; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaThe simulations of the low velocity and dynamic deformation of a multi-layer 1050-H14 Al trapezoidal zig-zag corrugated core sandwich were investigated using the homogenized models (solid models) of a single core layer (without face sheets). In the first part of the study, the LS-DYNA MAT-26 material model parameters of a single core layer were developed through experimental and numerical compression tests on the single core layer. In the second part, the fidelities of the developed numerical models were checked by the split-Hopkinson pressure bar direct impact, low velocity compression and indentation and projectile impact tests. The results indicated that the element size had a significant effect on the initial peak and post-peak stresses of the homogenized models of the direct impact testing of the single-layer corrugated sandwich. This was attributed to the lack of the inertial effects in the homogenized models, which resulted in reduced initial peak stresses as compared with the full model and experiment. However, the homogenized models based on the experimental stress–strain curve of the single core layer predicted the low velocity compression and indentation and projectile impact tests of the multi-layer corrugated sandwich with an acceptable accuracy and reduced the computational time of the models significantly.
