Abstract:
The exceptional mechanical properties of composite structures have gradually sparked the interest of researchers. However, factors such as lightweight and eco-friendliness are also crucial while meeting the requirements of mechanical properties. This paper investigates the mechanical responses of corrugated sandwich structure through three-point bending experiments and numerical simulations. The corrugated sandwich structure is composed of two aluminum alloy sheets and a bamboo scrimber core. ABAQUS/Explicit was used for numerical simulation, and the simulation results are compared with the experimental results. The results indicate that there is a good degree of agreement between the experiment and the simulation, which validates the feasibility and accuracy of the numerical modelling. Based on this, the sandwich structure with different layup direction were compared to reveal the bearing capacity and energy absorption mechanism. The orthogonally corrugated sandwich structure exhibits the optimal mechanical performance. The graphical user interface parameterized modeling scripts for ABAQUS was developed, enabling an analyze of the influence of different corrugation angles and working condition on the mechanical properties of corrugated sandwich structure. The optimal structure and optimal working condition for the sandwich corrugated structure were determined. The obtained results will provide a foundation for the engineering applications of the corrugated sandwich structure.
