Flexural Behaviour of Aluminium Foam/Composite Structures

An Investigation into the Deformation Mechanism and Strain Distribution under 4 Point Bending in Comparison with Polymer Foam Core Structures

Styles, M. / Compston, P. / Kalyanasundaram, S.

Abstract The deformation mechanism of an aluminium foam core/thermoplastic composite facing sandwich structure was compared with an equivalent polymer foam core sandwich structure under 4pt bend loading. Full field strain analysis showed the metal core deformed extensively mid-beam while the polymer foam had high strain concentrations under the load rollers.
