Experimental Analysis of Perimeter Shear Strength of Composite Sandwich Structures.

The work concerns the experimental analysis of the process of destruction of sandwich structures as a result of circumferential shearing. The aim of the research was to determine the differences that occur in the destruction mechanism of such structures depending on the thickness and material of the core used. Specimens with a Rohacell foam core and a honeycomb core were made for the purposes of the research.
