Abstract
Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and CFRP-based composite honeycomb sandwich structures are particularly sensitive to impact. The mechanical characteristics of composite honeycomb sandwich structures under oblique impact are studied by numerical simulation and experiment. The oblique impact model is established, and the reliability of the model is verified by the oblique impact test. To further analyze the influence of structural parameters on energy absorption under oblique impact, the influence of impact angle, face sheet thickness and wall thickness of the honeycomb is numerically studied. The results show that the impact angle has an important effect on energy distribution. The structural parameters also have an effect on the peak contact force, contact time, and energy absorption, and the effect is different from normal impact due to the presence of frictional dissipation energy. Compared with normal impact, the debonding of oblique impact will be reduced, but the buckling range of the honeycomb core will be expanded.
