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.
