This paper presents a review of the issues concerning sandwich structures for aeronautical
applications. The main questions raised by designers are first recalled and the complexity of …

It is a challenging task to advance the excellent strength and structural performance of
sandwich structures, while continuing to reduce the weight and cost parameters. Thousands …

The processing of poly (p‐phenylene terephthalamide)(PPTA) has long been a great
challenge. This work reports a simple “monomers‐nanofibers‐macroscopic product”(MNM) …

To predict the damage behaviours of composite sandwich structures with a honeycomb core
subjected to low-velocity perforation impact, a numerical model was developed addressing …

This paper systematically investigates the low-velocity impact response and resulting
damage behavior of aluminum honeycomb sandwich structures with carbon fiber reinforced …

In order to enhance the energy absorption capacity of the honeycomb structure, a novel self-
similar hierarchical honeycomb is proposed by adding smaller hexagons in the center and …

Aluminum sandwich panels with honeycomb core have been widely used as energy
absorption structure in lightweight design. This study aimed to characterize the indentation …

Hierarchical materials are widely observed in nature, and have been credited with superior
mechanical properties and weight efficiency. In the present work, fractal-appearing self …

The center-vertex honeycomb (CVH) structure based on the self-similar hierarchical
evolution of the hexagonal honeycomb (HH) is introduced in this paper. The CVH structure …

Through experiments and numerical simulation, the dynamic mechanical behaviors and
mechanical properties of Nomex honeycomb sandwich panels under impact loads were …
