Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate failure characteristics of Carbon/BMI-Nomex honeycomb sandwich on design parameters. A total of 6 types sandwich specimens were manufactured according to core height, face thickness and density, and environmental condition were applied to evaluate temperature and humidity effects of one of these specimens. The test results show that the core shear buckling loads was commonly observed in all specimens except for the joint with density of $64kg/m^3$. After core shear buckling, however, the joint carried additional loads over the buckling loads and then finally failed in the upper face and lower face at the same time. In the case of specimen having high stiffness, the maximum failure load was low due to interfacial failure of the upper face and core without initial core shear buckling. The ETW1 and ETW2 conditions, which were carried out to evaluate the environmental condition of the sandwich specimen, show an initial failure mode which was significantly different from RTD condition. Also, the ETW2 condition with increased temperature under the same humidity shows that the core shear buckling load was 18% less than ETW1 condition.

본 연구에서는 카본/BMI 면재와 노멕스 허니콤 코어를 가지는 샌드위치 포팅 체결부의 다양한 설계변수에 대한 파손특성 연구를 수행하였다. 샌드위치 시편은 코어 높이, 면재 두께 및 밀도에 따라 총 6종류가 제작되었고, 이중 1종류의 시편에 대해 온/습도 효과를 보기 위해 환경 조건이 가해졌다. 시험 결과 밀도가 $64kg/m^3$ 코어를 제외한 모든 시편에서 코어의 전단좌굴이 초기 파손모드로 나타났으며, 이후 하중을 지지하다 윗면재 파손과 동시에 아랫면재에 볼트가 파고드는 파손형상이 나타났다. 하지만 밀도에 의해 높은 강성을 가지는 시편의 경우 초기 전단좌굴 발생 없이 윗면재와 코어의 계면파손에 의해 낮은 최대파손하중을 나타냈다. 샌드위치 시편의 환경적 영향 평가를 위해 수행된 ETW1($82^{\circ}C$, Wet)과 ETW2($177^{\circ}C$, Wet)의 경우 RTD($24^{\circ}C$, Dry) 조건과 확연히 다른 초기 파손모드를 보였으며, 동일한 습도조건 하에 온도가 상승된 ETW2는 ETW1보다 전단좌굴 하중이 약 18% 감소되는 경향을 보였다.
