一种新型的夹芯结构

A New Hybrid Concept for Sandwich Structures

金属(铝壳,蜂房或金属泡沫核)或聚合物(复合面层,聚合物泡沫核)夹芯结构被认为是承受弯曲荷载的优化设计结构。本文在发挥金属性材料和聚合物材料优势的基础上,研制了一种新的混杂夹芯结构。这种新理念的结构中金属片用在外表面以加强刚度,轻质核与外壳粘结成整体。此外,还将复合层或木材层作为中间层以提高冲击阻力。制造这种新结构潜在的方法是基于真空压缩。对该结构的研究包含基于有限元分析的几种面层的理论构造,改进的简化方程,对典型案例的试验。

Sandwich structures are considered as optimal designs for carrying bending loads and can be either metal （aluminium faces and honeycomb or metal foam cores） or polymer structures （composite faces with polymer foam cores）. In this paper, a new hybrid sandwich structure has been developed by combining most of the advantages of metallic and polymeric materials while avoiding some of their main disadvantages. For this new concept metal sheets are used at the outer surfaces to maximize rigidity while introducing in between lightweight cores adhesively bonded to keep the whole structure together. Furthermore, composite or wood layers may be used as intermediate layers to improve impact resistance. Potential methods for the manufacturing of this new structure are based on compression under vacuum. The results include the study of several panel configurations theoretically based on Finite element analysis and on the modified simplified equations and experimental results in the most representative cases of the study.
