摘要
Aluminium foam core sandwich panels are good energy absorbers for impact protection applications, such as light-weight structural panels, packing materials and energy absorbing devices. In this study, the high-velocity impact perforation of aluminium foam core sandwich structures was analysed. Sandwich panels with 1100 aluminium face-sheets and closed-cell A356 aluminium alloy foam core were modelled by three-dimensional finite element models. The models were validated with experimental tests by comparing numerical and experimental damage modes, output velocity, ballistic limit and absorbed energy. By this model the influence of foam core and face-sheet thicknesses on the behaviour of the sandwich panel under impact perforation was evaluated.
