This paper deal with comparison of mechanical properties of composite sandwich panel with aluminium honeycomb core which is determined by experimental measurement, analytic calculation and numerical simulation. The goal was to compared four composite sandwich panels. The composite sandwich panels were made of two different aluminium honeycomb cores with density 32 and 72 kg.m-3 and two different layup of skin with 4 and 5 layers. The comparison was performed on a three-point bend test with support span 400 mm. This paper confirms the possibility of a very precise design of a composite sandwich panel with an aluminium honeycomb core using analytical calculation and numerical simulation.

Composite materials are used in aerospace structures due to their considerable bending stiffness and strength-to-weight ratio. A composite sandwich is composed of a face-sheet and an aluminum core. The face-sheet of the sandwich takes the bending stress and core of sandwich takes the shear stress. A compression test and FEM analysis accomplished about composite sandwich panels that have curvature. The FEM analysis was performed using a commercial code, ANSYS and the compression test was performed until failure occurred in the sandwich panel. A strain gauge and a displacement gauge were used to acquire the data. In this paper, the failure strength and failure mode was checked. Additionally, the results of the test and analysis were compared.

The combination of metals and fiber reinforced plastics is also known as hybrid metal composites. They offer the fusion of the good static mechanical properties of the fiber reinforced plastics and the good dynamic mechanical properties of the metal. For that reason, parts made of hybrid metal composites are predestined for the use as load relevant parts. The purpose of this study was to develop new technologies for semi finished hybrid metal composite materials. Thermoplastic Fiber-Reinforced Composites (TP-FRC) were arranged with new, isotropic, closed pore Aluminum Foam (AF) structures to an Extrinsically Combined Composite Sandwich (ECCS) by adhesive bonding. They form the basis for novel weight-optimized as well as cost-effective applications. The entire manufacturing process for the continuous semi-finished product was examined and verified according DIN EN 2563. This was done with regard to subsequent characterization by the specific bending modulus and specific bending stiffness. The examinations show a high bending stiffness and high strength structures combined with excellent damping properties at high damage tolerances. These are the most requested in automotive applications.
