The computational post-buckling strength of the tilted sandwich composite shell structure is evaluated in this article. The computational responses are obtained using a mathematical model derived using the higher-order type of polynomial kinematic in association with the through-thickness stretching effect. Also, the sandwich deformation behaviour of the flexible soft-core sandwich structural model is expressed mathematically with the help of a generic nonlinear strain theory i.e. Green-Lagrange type strain-displacement relations. Subsequently, the model includes all of the nonlinear strain terms to account the actual deformation and discretized via displacement type of finite element. Further, the computer code is prepared (MATLAB environment) using the derived higher-order formulation in association with the direct iterative technique for the computation of temperature carrying capacity of the soft-core sandwich within the post-buckled regime. Further, the nonlinear finite element model has been tested to show its accuracy by solving a few numerical experimentations as same as the published example including the consistency behaviour. Lastly, the derived model is utilized to find the temperature load-carrying capacity under the influences of variable factors affecting the soft-core type sandwich structural design in the small (finite) strain and large deformation regime including the effect of tilt angle.

본 논문에서는 두께와 재료의 구성이 변하는 복잡한 형상의 복합재 샌드위치 구조의 파손 거동을 연구하였다. 구조물은 두께가 일정한 알루미늄 하니콤 코어 샌드위치 판넬이, 두께가 줄어드는 폼코어 샌드위치 천이부를 거쳐, 최종적으로는 면재와 면재가 만나 단순 적층판을 이루면서 다른 구조물에 체결되는 형상을 갖는다. 하중은 인장 및 압축하중의 형태로 가해지며 각 3개씩 총 6개 시편에 대한 시험을 수행하였다. 시험 결과 압축시험의 경우 재료불연속선을 따른 면재의 파손에 취약하며, 재료불연속선을 따른 파손을 피할 수 있는 경우 알루미늄 코어와 카본 면재의 디본딩에 의한 파손이 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 파손하중은 디본딩에 의한 파손까지 견디는 경우가 약 16% 높게 나타났다. 인장시험의 경우 파손모드는, 곡률부를 갖는 복합재 구조물에서 가장 취약한 부분인, 플랜지와 웹이 만나는 곡률부의 층간분리 파손이 주를 이루었다. 파손하중은 압축하중이 인장하중에 비하여 약7배 가량 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 구조물은 주로 압축하중을 견디기 위한 목적의 구조물에 적용하여야 할 것으로 보인다.

Impact behaviors of Aluminum Honeycombs Sandwich Panel(AHSP) by drop weight test were investigated. Two types of specimens with 1/2" and 1/4" cell size were tested by two impactors which are weight of $5.25\textrm{kg}_{\textrm{f}}$ and $11.9\textrm{kg}_{\textrm{f}}$. Parametric studies were achieved including the impactor weight and impact sites which consist face, long-edge, short-edge, and point of the specimen. Face one of impact sites was the strongest and short-edge one of impact sites was the weakest. The damaged area of AHSP was enlarged with the increase of impactor weight that is equal to impact energy. After 3 point bending test, fracture modes of AHSP were analyzed with AE counts. Lower facesheet was fractured in the long-edge direction and then separated between facesheet and core. In the short-edge direction after core wrinkled, lower facesheet tear occurred. Impact behavior by FE analysis were increased localized damage in fast velocity because the faster velocity of the impact was, the smaller the stress of core was. Consequently, impactor weight had an effect on widely damaged area, while the impact velocity was caused on the localized damaged area.aged area.

In this research, the design optimization of a composite sandwich has been performed for using as an airplane wing skin. Automated analysis framework for aero-structure interaction is used for calculating load data on the wing. For automated analysis framework, FLUENT is used for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. CFD mesh is generated automatically by using parametric modeling of CATIA and GAMBIT. A computational structure mechanics (CSM) mesh is generated automatically by the parametric method of the CATIA and visual basic script of NASTRAN-FX. The structure is analyzed by ABAQUS. Composite sandwich optimization is performed by NASTRAN SOL200. Design variables are thicknesses of the sandwich core and composite skin panel plies. The objective is to minimize the weight of the wing and constraints are applied for wing tip displacement, global failure index and local failure indexes.

Recently, the size of glass panel is increased to $1250 mm{\times}1100 mm{\times}0.7 mm$, whose mass is 2.65 kg, which requires much stiffer robot structure. In addition to the high stiffness, the robot hands and wrists for glass panel handling should have miller surface finishing of its outer surface to prevent particles and dusts from adhering on the surface. The maximum height of the robot structure should not be larger than 1500 mm because other automated guided vehicles (AGV) and transfer equipments have been designed within this size limit. The difference of maximum deflections of the four ends of the hands before and after loading the glass panel should be less than 2.0 mm. In this work, the robot hands and wrists for handling large glass panel displays were designed based on the axiomatic design using the finite element method along with optimization routine.

This paper deals with general equations of motion for free vibration analysis response of thick three-layer doubly curved sandwich panels (DCSP) under simply supported boundary conditions (BCs) using higher order shear deformation theory. In this model, the face sheets are orthotropic laminated composite that follow the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT) based on Rissners-Mindlin (RM) kinematics field. The core is made of orthotropic material and its in-plane transverse displacements are modeled using the third order of the Taylor's series extension. It provides the potentiality for considering both compressible and incompressible cores. To find these equations and boundary conditions, Hamilton's principle is used. Also, the effect of trapezoidal shape factor for cross-section of curved panel element ($1{\pm}z/R$) is considered. The natural frequency parameters of DCSP are obtained using Galerkin Method. Convergence studies are performed with the appropriate formulas in general form for three-layer sandwich plate, cylindrical and spherical shells (both deep and shallow). The influences of core stiffness, ratio of core to face sheets thickness and radii of curvatures are investigated. Finally, for the first time, an optimum range for the core to face sheet stiffness ratio by considering the existence of in-plane stress which significantly affects the natural frequencies of DCSP are presented.

This work presents a practical detailed finite element (FE) approach for the three-dimensional (3D) free-vibration analysis of actual aircraft and spacecraft-type lightweight and thin honeycomb sandwich panels. It consists of calling successively in $MATLAB^{(R)}$, via a developed user-friendly GUI, a detailed 3D meshing tool, a macrocommands language translator and a commercial FE solver($ABAQUS^{(R)}$ or $ANSYS^{(R)}$). In contrary to the common practice of meshing finely the faces and core cells, the proposed meshing tool represents each wall of the actual hexagonal core cells as a single two-dimensional (2D) 4 nodes quadrangularshell element or two 3 nodes triangular ones, while the faces meshes are obtained simply using the nodes at the core-faces interfaces. Moreover, as the same 2D FE interpolation type is used for meshing the core and faces, this leads to an automatic handling of their required FE compatibility relations. This proposed approach is applied to a sample made of very thin glass fiber reinforced polymer woven composite faces and a thin aluminum alloy hexagonal honeycomb core. The unknown or incomplete geometric and materials properties are first collected through direct measurements, reverse engineering techniques and experimental-FE modal analysis-based inverse identification. Then, the free-vibrations of the actual honeycomb sandwich panel are analyzed experimentally under different boundary conditions and numerically using different mesh basic cell shapes. It is found that this approach is accurate for the first few modes used for pre-design purpose.

인장과 압축하중 모두를 효과적으로 지지할 수 있는 새로운 샌드위치 체결부 구조의 설계를 위해, 체결부 형상이 다른 3가지 샌드위치 판넬에 대한 인장 및 압축 시험을 수행하였다. 샌드위치 판넬의 코어는 주로 알루미늄 플렉스 허니콤이지만, 타 구조물과의 체결을 위해 두께가 얇아지면서 단순 적층판으로 변하는 램프 영역에서는 PMI 폼 코어를 사용하였고, 면재에는 탄소섬유 복합재를 사용하였다. 형상 1에서는 복합재 플랜지와 샌드위치 구조가 일체형으로 연결된다. 형상 2와 3에서는 별도로 제작된 알루미늄 플랜지가 복합재 적층판에 하이록핀과 접착제로 체결된다. 시험 결과 형상 1, 2, 3의 평균 압축파손하중은 각각 295 kN, 226 kN, 291 kN으로 나타났고, 평균 인장파손하중은 각각 47.3(층간분리), 83.7 kN(볼트파손), 291 kN(치구손상)으로 나타났다. 압축 파손하중만을 고려할 경우 플랜지와 샌드위치 판넬을 복합재 일체형으로 제작한 형상 1과 3이 우수한 특성을 보였다. 그러나 형상 1의 경우 인장하중을 받을 때 낮은 하중에서 플랜지 모서리 부분에서 층간분리가 발생하였다. 따라서 인장과 압축하중을 동시에 효과적으로 지지할 수 있는 구조는 모서리에서 층간분리의 위험이 없게 별도의 알루미늄 플랜지를 사용하여 볼트로 체결한 형상 3임을 확인하였다.
