摘要
An experimental study of the in-plane compressive failure mechanism of foam cored sandwich specimens with an implanted through-width face/core debond is presented. Tests were conducted on sandwich specimens with glass/vinylester and carbon/epoxy face sheets over various PVC foam cores. Observation of the response of the specimens during testing showed that failure occurred by buckling of the debonded face sheet, followed by rapid debond growth towards the ends of the specimen. The compression strength of the sandwich specimens containing a debond decreased quite substantially with increasing debond size. A high-density core resulted in less strength decrease at any given debond size. Examination of the failure surfaces after separation of the face sheet and core revealed traces of core material deposited on the face sheet evidencing cohesive core failure. The amount of core material adhered to the face sheet decreased with increasing foam density indicating increasing tendency for core/resin interfacial failure. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
