Compression properties of fire-damaged polymer sandwich composites

The effect of fire-induced damage on the edgewise compression properties of polymer sandwich composites is investigated. Fire tests were performed using a cone calorimeter on sandwich composites with high or low flammability. The highly flammable composite had a poly(vinyl chloride) foam core, while the flame resistant composite had a phenolic foam core. The residual edgewise compression properties of the burnt composites were determined after fire testing at room temperature. The compression stiffness and strength of the two sandwich composites decreased rapidly with increasing heat flux and heating time of the fire due to thermal decomposition of the face skin and foam core. A large reduction to the edgewise compression properties of the phenolic-based sandwich composite occurred despite having good flame resistance, and the reasons for this are described. Preliminary analytical models are presented for estimating the edgewise compression failure load of fire-damaged sandwich composites that fail by core shear or buckling.

Compression, flexure and shear properties of a sandwich composite containing defects

The mechanical properties of a sandwich composite containing interfacial cracks or impact damage are compared when loaded in edgewise compression, flexure or shear. The composite is made from glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminate skins over a core of foamed poly vinyl chloride (PVC), and this sandwich material is used in some naval minehunting ships. The properties are reduced with increasing interfacial crack or impact damage length, but only when the defects cause a change in the failure mode, which is dependent on the load state. The principal failure modes under the different load states are compared. The properties are also dependent on the severity of impact damage, with low energy damage to the skin having a smaller effect on stiffness and strength than high energy impacts which damage both the skin and foam core. The implications of these findings on the structural integrity of a minehunting ship made from GFRP/PVC foam sandwich composite is discussed.     

Stability of the face layer of sandwich beams with sub-interface damage in the foam core

This paper addresses the effect of local indentation/impact damage on the bearing capacity of foam core sandwich beams subjected to edgewise compression. The considered damage is in a form of through-width zone of crushed core accompanied by a residual dent in the face sheet. It is shown that such damage causes a significant reduction of compressive strength and stiffness of sandwich beams. Analytical solutions estimating the Euler’s local buckling load are obtained for two typical modes of damage. These solutions are validated through experimental investigation of three sandwich configurations. The results of the analytical analysis are in agreement with the experimental data.     

Evaluation of durability and strength of stitched foam-cored sandwich structures

The static and fatigue characteristics of polyurethane foam-cored sandwich structures are investigated. Three types of specimens with glass fabric faces and polyurethane foam core are used; non-stitched, stitched and stiffened sandwich specimens. The bending strength of the stitched specimen is improved by 50% compared with the non-stitched specimen, and the stiffened specimen is over 10 times stronger than the non-stitched specimen. After fatigue loading of 10⁶ cycles, the static bending strengths of all specimens decrease compared with those of the static test. To verify the aging effect of polyurethane foam, ultrasonic C-scanning equipment is used to detect damage of the skin laminate alone after the fatigue test for non-stitched specimens. From the results of UT C-scanning images, no damage is found to have occurred during the fatigue test. Results indicate that the decrease in bending strength of foam-cored sandwich structures is caused by the degradation of stiffness due to the aging of the polyurethane foam core during fatigue cycles. To investigate the effect of distance and diameter of stitching thread, four types of stitched specimens are used. The strength of stitched specimen is improved by increasing the stitching thread diameter and decreasing the stitching thread distance. But fatigue characteristics are not predominantly affected by the variation of stitching thread diameter and distance.     

Compression strength of sandwich panels with sub-interface damage in the foam core

This paper addresses the effect of a local quasi-static indentation or a low-velocity impact on the residual strength of foam core sandwich panels subjected to edgewise compression. The damage is characterized by a local zone of crushed core accompanied by a residual dent in the face sheet. Experimental studies show that such damage can significantly alter the compressive strength. Theoretical analysis of the face sheet local bending is performed for two typical damage modes (with or without a face–core debonding). The solutions allow estimation of the onset of (a) an unstable dent growth (local buckling) or (b) a compressive failure in the face sheet. The theoretical results are in agreement with the test data for two considered sandwich configurations.
