Abstract
The study employed chopped fiber-reinforced nylon composite, referred to as “Onyx,” along with continuous carbon fiber materials. Using the material extrusion manufacturing process, three sandwich structures were created: a conventional, a concave hexagonal with negative Poisson's ratio, and a feather-inspired structure. Tensile testing and finite element simulations were conducted to analyze their tensile properties and crack propagation paths under tension. Fractal dimensions were calculated for each structure: the standard structure had a dimension of 1.4626, the bionic feather-inspired was 1.4810, and the negative Poisson's ratio concave hexagonal structure measured 1.4973.
