Characterisation of Novel K-Cor Sandwich Structures

Casari, Pascal / Cartié, Denis / Davies, Peter

Abstract Sandwich beams reinforced with K-Cor™ are characterized in terms of stiffness, strength and fracture by means of static tests, and compared to traditional sandwich materials. Stiffness is evaluated with a series of three flexure tests applied to each sample. Strength tests show different failure mechanisms for the two architectures. Mode I fracture properties are measured and a significant increase in the core toughness of reinforced samples is revealed.
