Abstract
This paper presents a detailed discussion of the bending properties of laser welded web-core steel sandwich plates and the influence of weld width on stiffness and strength. The over-hanging three point bending test was conducted on the laser welded web-core steel sandwich plates with various welds width by self-designed device, together with the finite element simulations. A good agreement is obtained between the 2D FE analyses and experiment results. The stiffness and strength of the sandwich plates increased with the increasing of weld width, especially for the weld width lower than 60% thickness of the core plate. It is necessary to consider the weld width in the design and evaluation of the stiffness and strength of the laser welded web-core sandwich plate. Base on the results, the FEM is the priority to analysis bending properties of laser welded web-core steel sandwich plates.
