Numerical Analysis of the Impact Resistance of Composite A-Shaped Sandwich Structures.

This paper focuses on the finite element analysis simulation of the impact properties of composite sandwich structures made of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer lamina. In the existing studies, the composite sandwich structures with A-shaped cores have superior mechanical properties under quasi-static plane compression loads compared to W-shaped, Y-shaped, and X-shaped cores. However, there is limited research on the impact resistance of this structure.
