This work focuses on the characterisation of damage mechanisms of GFRP-balsa sandwich
under static 4-point bending by coupling Acoustic Emission (AE) monitoring and post …

This work focuses on moisture effects on mechanical properties of GFRP-balsa sandwich
structure experimentally and numerically. Firstly, relationships between Moisture Content …

In this paper, the effects of some system parameters such as nanographene, core geometry,
and polyurethane foam on the compressive strength of composite sandwich beams with …

This paper aims to evaluate the influence of graphene nanoparticles and the structural
configuration of the core as independent variables on the flexural strength of the composite …

In the first part of this paper, a viscoelastic model is used to numerically study the cellular
foam core fatigue behaviour. Material's temperature evolution is quantified with a numerical …

Fatigue behavior of sandwich structures with honeycomb core and GFRP skins is studied
and failure mode is investigated through tomographic observations. The first S/N curves are …

Thanks to the excellent specific stiffness and strength, as well as lower costs, the sandwich
structures with composites skins, such as glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP)-balsa and …

In this work, 4-point bending fatigue performance including the fatigue damage evolution
process, stiffness degradation process and fatigue lifetime of eco balsa cored composite …

Reducing the CO2 emissions is one of the major objectives in aerospace engineering. In
this regard, XSun startup is developing an autonomous solar drone, SolarXOne. The latter is …

The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of a spatially moving load and edge
effects on the fatigue life of the foam-cored sandwich structures. A spatially moving load can …
