A Homogenization Method to Analyze and Simulate the Behaviors of the Folded Core Sandwich Panels in Case of In-plane Shear Forces

Abstract

Sandwich panels with many outstanding features have widely used in many fields especially in engineering. To use them effectively, we need to know the mechanical behaviors of these sandwich panels. This paper presents a homogenization method to determine the mechanical behaviors of folded core sandwich panels in in-plane shear loading. This method allows us to build an equivalent model (2D) for original model (3D) which helps to significantly reduce the computational time as well as time to build the geometry of model. A very good agreement is obtained between the 3D shell simulations and our homogenization model for in-plane shear problem verifying the accuracy and efficiency of our model. We can also use, of course, this method to build equivalent models for any type of folded core as well as many types of sandwich panels.
