This article provides a comprehensive review of recent research efforts on the development
and characterization of sandwich structures with corrugated, honeycomb, and foam cores …

In the present study, periodical grids were selected to reinforce soft honeycomb cores of
sandwich structures. The grid reinforced honeycomb core can be considered as a combined …

Sandwich composite panels (SCPs) with carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) facings are
usually vulnerable to low-velocity transverse impact loading. In this study, a method is …

Exploring ultralight sandwich structures with superior load-bearing performance is one of the
important topics in structural optimization. This paper proposes a novel multiscale topology …

In the past decade, particle reinforced foams have been intensively studied and applied in
diverse fields owing to their low weight-to-strength ratio, low cost, and tailorable physical …

Advanced sandwich structures have emerged as new multifunctional structures with low
density and good mechanical performance. Sandwich composites have high strength to …

The vibration performance of sandwich beams with honeycomb-corrugation hybrid cores
was investigated in this paper. The method of homogenization was employed to obtain the …
