Abstract

In this paper, the dynamic tests were conducted in order to determine the performance,
mechanical behaviour, effect of foam type and the correlation between input energy from
static and dynamic tests. Emphasis is placed on assessing the failure modes occurred after
the dynamic test and the comparison is made with the static test. Same type off ailure
behaviours were observed for the circular sandwich panels with different PU and R55
foam cores. The load versus displacement diagrams show that dynamic loading requires
more input energy to create the same type of failure than that of static loading for circular
PU sandwich panels. For circular R55 sandwich panels, it behaves oppositely. where
higher loads were recorded in the static cases.
