Manufacturing and mechanical properties of a honeycomb sandwich panel

초록

Sandwich panels are widely used in the main structure of aircrafts and ships because of their lightweight, high strength, stiffness, durability, and corrosion resistance. The present paper proposes a manufacturing process of a carbody structure of rolling stock using a composite honeycomb sandwich panel. The panel is made of carbon/epoxy composite faces and an aluminum core. The faces bear bending loads and the core shearing load. A product is manufactured by lay-up of composite material on the mold of the product in final dimensions
