This paper presents the studies carried out on bending and free vibration behavior of truss core sandwich panel filled with foam typically used in aerospace applications. Equivalent stiffness properties for foam-filled truss core sandwich panel are derived by idealizing 3D foam-filled sandwich panel to an equivalent 2D orthotropic thick plate continuum. The accuracy of the derived elastic property is ensured by the numerical comparison of free vibration response of 3D and its equivalent 2D finite element model. The derived stiffness constants were used in closed form solution to evaluate the maximum deflection of the continuum. The results show that the free vibration and static behavior of the sandwich panel can be enhanced in due consideration to the space constraint by filling foam in the empty space of core. The results also reveal that triangular core foam-filled sandwich panel deflects less compared to other cores. From the free vibration analysis, effect of filling foam is effective in cellular and trapezoidal core.

Abstract In present work, an attempt has been made for carrying out free vibration and buckling analysis of laminated sandwich beams under hygrothermal conditions. The analysis is carried out using fourth order zigzag theory based on finite element formulation. The efficiency of proposed model is validated by comparing the present results with those available in literature. Geometric properties and loading condition widely affect the behavior of the laminated sandwich beams.
