A double-cell foam-filled composite block for efficient energy absorption under axial compression

This paper describes an experimental evaluation of the crashworthiness characteristics of a novel design for cost-effective crashworthy composite glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) sandwich structures. All the samples are based on the concept of the ‘‘double-layered” foam-filled block, i.e. two f...
