Structural Response of Polyethylene Foam-Based Sandwich Panels Subjected to Edgewise Compression

Structural Response of Polyethylene Foam-Based Sandwich Panels Subjected to Edgewise Compression

This study analyzes the mechanical behavior of low density polyethylene foam core sandwich panels subjected to edgewise compression. In order to monitor panel response to buckling, strains generated in the facesheets and overall out-of-plane deformations are measured with strain gages and projection...
