This paper presents the effects of ballistic impact damage on mechanical behaviour composite honeycomb sandwich panels. The panels are composed facesheets made carbon fibre reinforced laminates and Nomex core. Ballistic tests were conducted in a shooting range using live projectiles three different calibres. specimens subjected to both normal oblique impacts simulate structures that can be inflicted by use small weapons or fragments anti-aircraft ammunition. modes extent induced have been...
Abstract Light assisted 3D printing of continuous carbon fiber reinforced thermoset composites has gained attention due to their ability print with low-viscosity resin. Void formation during the thermosets poses a challenge improving mechanical strength printed composites. The primary objective this study is characterize voids present within and define influence on fracture or crack propagation. This conducted using light-assisted process. Micro-CT analysis was performed obtain information...
