Geometrical parameters influence on behavior of the sandwich plates with corrugated core

Abstract

The influence of geometric parameters on behavior and stiffness of sandwich plates with corrugated core is considered in this paper. The following parameters were analyzed: ratio of core sheet and facing sheet thickness and the ratio of the core's pitch to the core's depth, as well as the corrugation angle. It is shown that changes of these parameters can contribute to increase or decrease of the corrugated sandwich plate stiffness.
