摘要
The static and flexural fatigue characteristics of foam cored polymer composite sandwich beams are investigated. The skins of the beams are made from hybrid glass-aramid fibres set in epoxy resin and the core materials are linear and cross-linked polymer foams. The applied load in a ten-point configuration approximates a uniformly distributed load throughout the span of the beam which is simply supported at the ends. The testing frequencies are 0.33-0.91 Hz. Failure modes relate to both core shear and skin failure.
