Impact Properties of Corrugated Composite Sandwich Cores

• The out-of-plane impact properties of corrugated carbon fibre composite cores have been investigated experimentally. Cores with slender core members show dynamic strengthening of approximately 12 times compared to quasi-static experiments whereas cores with stocky core members show a dynamic strengthening of approximately 2 times. Carbon fibre corrugated cores have superior compressive performance in the density range of 100 kgm-3 to 300 kgm-3.
