description | Due to the properties of shape memory effect and super-elasticity, shape memory alloy (SMA) is added into glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) face-sheets of foam core sandwich panels to improve the impact resistence performance by many researchers. This paper tries to discuss the failure mechanism of sandwich panels with GF/ epoxy face-sheets embedded with SMA wires and conventional 304 SS wire nets under low-velocity impact and compression after impact (CAI) tests. The histories of contact force, absorbed energy and deflection during the impact process are obtained by experiment. Besides, the failure modes of sandwich panels with different ply modes are compared by visual inspection and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). CAI tests are conducted with the help of digital image correlation (DIC) technology. Based on the results, the sandwich panels embedded with SMA wires can absorb more impact energy, and show relatively excellent CAI performance. This is because the SMA wires can absorb and transmit the energy to the outer region of GFRP face-sheet due to the super-elasticity-behavior. The failure process and mechanism of the CAI test is also discussed. |
