Sandwich Panels with Polymeric Foam Cores Exposed to Blast Loading: An Experimental and Numerical Investigation

Sandwich panels have proven to be excellent energy absorbents. Such panels may be used as a protective structure in, for example, façades subjected to explosions. In this study, the dynamic response of sandwich structures subjected to blast loading has been investigated both experimentally and numer...
