High Impact Value of CFRP/ABS/CFRP Sandwich Structural Composite Homogeneously Irradiated with Low Voltage Electron Beam

Low Velocity Impact of Sandwich Composite Plates

Impact and compression after impact properties of plain weave carbon fiber sandwich composites were investigated in this study. Impact tests were conducted on different sample types to obtain information about absorbed energy and force. The different samples consisted of foam filled and hollow honeycomb cores with four layer carbon fiber sheets on one or both sides. The impact and compression a...

Low-velocity Impact of Sandwich Composite Plates

In this paper we investigate impact and compression after impact properties of plain weave carbon fiber sandwich composites. Impact tests were conducted on different sample types to obtain information about absorbed energy and maximum impact force. The different samples consisted of foam-filled and hollow honeycomb cores with four-layer carbon fiber facesheets on one or both sides. The impact a...

Ruminal Degradation Kinetics of Wheat Straw Irradiated by High Doses of Electron Beam

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of electron beam irradiation at doses of 250 and 500 kGy on the chemical composition and ruminal dry matter (DM) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) degradability of wheat straw. Nylon bags of untreated or irradiated wheat straw were suspended in the rumen of three rams for up to 72 h, and resulting data were fitted to non-linear degradation model t...

Analytical Prediction of Indentation and Low-Velocity Impact Responses of Fully Backed Composite Sandwich Plates

In this paper, static indentation and low velocity impact responses of a fully backed composite sandwich plate subjected to a rigid flat-ended cylindrical indenter/impactor are analytically investigated. The analysis is nonlinear due to nonlinear strain-displacement relation. In contrast to the existed analytical models for the indentation of composite sandwich plates, the stacking sequence of ...
