Abstract

A new multifunctional sandwich composite was investigated in this paper. The honeycomb core of this composite was filled with viscoelastic material in order to obtain an improved impact performance. The fillings in the honeycomb cells was hoped to provide the act of energy dissipation in this combined material system. Low-velocity drop-weight test was set up to the specimens with various stacked carbon/epoxy laminate facesheets, $[0/90]_{4s},\;[0/45/-45/90]_{2s}$. Load and energy history were checked and compared for the both groups of specimens, with and without rubber fillings. Further, the damaged faces were inspected visually by ultrasonic C-scan.
