Abstract

To study the impact response and compression-after-impact (CAI) behavior of perforated sandwich panels comprised of foam core and glass fiber-reinforced epoxy hybrid facesheets, the hole diameter of specimens is changed in the fabrication via vacuum-assisted resin infusion. Furthermore, low-velocity-impact tests with various impact distances between the impact point and hole are carried out. With the help of the digital image correlation technique, CAI testing is conducted, and the strain evolution of specimens is monitored carefully. The mechanical response history, damage morphology, and compressive process are discussed in detail. The results show that the impact and CAI performance of specimens are weakened because of open holes. Compared with the non-perforated specimen, the maximum force of the specimen with a 6-mm hole and the 5-mm impact distance decreases by 41.21%, and its maximum displacement increases by 38.60%. During the CAI process, in comparison with the impact damage, more significant stress concentration and buckling around the hole are found.

1 Introduction

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have been widely used in aerospace, civil engineering, automobiles, and ships in recent years due to their advantages of light weight, high strength, good corrosion resistance, and strong durability (1,2,3,4,5,6). As a new type of composite structure, the sandwich structure has higher specific stiffness and specific strength than traditional composite materials, can meet the needs of lightweight design, and has attracted extensive attention in recent years (7,8,9,10,11). As with most composite structures, impact loading will cause damage on the surface of the sandwich structure that is difficult to observe with the naked eye, and these damages are not easy to find and generally produce defects such as matrix cracking and interlayer delamination inside the structure, which seriously weakens the compressive strength and stiffness of the composite structure and poses a serious threat to the safety of the sandwich panel (12,13,14,15,16). The study on impact damage mechanism of composite sandwich panels is a hot issue in the research field of composite sandwich structures.

Because the composite material is still in service after being damaged, it is beneficial to protect the structural safety by studying the damage mode and failure mechanism of compression after impact (CAI). Extensive scholarly investigations have been dedicated to the examination of the impact resistance and CAI characteristics of composite sandwich structures. Research by Yang et al. (17) indicates that specimens with more severe damage exhibit a significant reduction in residual strength compared to specimens with minor impact damage. Gilioli et al. (18) investigated the residual strength of different laminate sandwich structures after impact. The results indicate that both types of laminate sandwich structures experience a degradation in compression performance after impact. Yang et al. (19) conducted a study on the compression strength of hybrid panel sandwich structures after impact. The research revealed that, following the occurrence of an impact event, the compressive strength can decrease by up to 50%. The research conducted by Wu and Wan (20) on shape memory alloy composite material foam sandwich panels after impact indicates that the sandwich panel experiences initial delamination in the impact zone. As the delamination extends along the interface between the face and core layers, the sandwich panel progressively loses its ability to bear loads. Gordon et al. (21) investigated the compression strength of glass fiber composite foam sandwich panels at varying impact energy levels. The results indicate a nearly linear decline in CAI strength with increasing impact energy. Notably, under higher energy impacts, the sandwich panel experienced a substantial reduction of up to 40% in residual strength. In their study, Elamin et al. (22) explored the impact and CAI characteristics of carbon fiber composite foam sandwich panels under low-temperature conditions. The findings indicate that with decreasing temperature, the compressive strength of non-impacted sandwich panels shows an increase. Conversely, for sandwich panels exposed to higher energy impacts, there is a notable decline in residual strength.

In practical engineering applications, there is often a need for complex structural configurations. Due to the requirements of structural connections and subsequent maintenance (23,24,25,26,27), it is often necessary to introduce perforations in composite sandwich panels in practical engineering applications. However, this practice can lead to structural damage as it disrupts the continuous fiber arrangement. Stress concentration at the hole edges is a common consequence, making the structure susceptible to failure and risking overall structural integrity. This poses a serious threat to the safety of its engineering applications (28,29,30,31). With the help of commercial software ABAQUS, Liu et al. (32) conducted progressive damage analysis and experiments of open-hole composite laminates subjected to compression loads. As mentioned above, most investigations focus on the open-hole compressive strength of laminates rather than that of sandwich structures. On the other hand, current research primarily emphasizes the impact resistance and CAI characteristics of defect-free composite sandwich structures with diverse fiber types. However, there is a paucity of studies addressing the specific challenges posed by sandwich structures containing perforations or voids.

To investigate the influence of holes on the impact resistance and CAI performance of foam-filled sandwich panels with glass fiber-reinforced epoxy hybrid facesheets, the vacuum-assisted resin infusion (VARI) process is employed to fabricate the specimens with both no-hole and perforated configurations. Furthermore, low-velocity-impact (LVI) and CAI tests are conducted, and their mechanical response is analyzed carefully. Finally, some important conclusions are obtained.

2 Materials and methods

2.1 Raw materials and fabrication

As shown in Figure 1, the sandwich composites composed of two facesheets of 8 GFRP layers (300 g·m−2 of areal density) and a polyamine form (8 mm of thickness, 75 kg·m−3 of density) are manufactured via conventional process of VARI, in which the vinyl ester resin (purchased from Xinxin Plastic Industry, Hebei, China) can fill the room among the woven glass fiber well. With a proper proportion of the hardening agent (methyl ethyl ketone peroxide) and accelerating agent (Dimethylaniline) at a mass ratio of 100:1:0.1, it can be cured at room temperature. All sandwich plates, 10 mm thickness in total, are cut into rectangular samples of 150 mm × 100 mm via a low-speed diamond saw blade cutting machine, and drilled at the center with a penetrable hole of 4/6/8/10 mm diameter. Before the CAI testing, the specimens are cut into a rectangular of 150 mm × 60 mm (Figure 2).

2.2 LVI and post-impact compressive test

Instron CEAST 9340, meeting ASTM D7136, is employed to implement the LVI testing, in which the history including absorbed energy, displacement as well as contact force on the surface of the impactor, 4.5 kg of mass and nose of 16 mm diameter, is recorded. It is worth noting that, to investigate the effect of the distance from the impact point and hole center, the specimens are fixed by four toggle clamps on the impact support fixture base and are subjected to 32-J LVI loading (a speed of 3.77 m·s−1) at various distances of 5/10/15/20/25/30 mm around the hole.

To study the effect of the impact location and hole size, CAI testing is conducted at a speed of 0.5 mm·min−1 on the universal testing machine. During the compressive test, in addition to the history of force and displacement, the strain-contour evolution of post-impact samples is presented with the help of 3-D Digital image correlation (DIC).

3 Results and discussion

3.1 LVI behavior

3.1.1 Comparison of unperforated and perforated specimens

The damage morphology of unperforated sandwich panel specimens and perforated specimens under the LVI test is shown in Figure 3, which includes delamination and fiber breaking on the surface, form cracking, and form debonding in the foam core.

In Figure 4, the specimens with the same distances between the edge of the hole and the impact point of 15 mm and four kinds of hole diameters of 4/6/8/10 mm are defined as the hole diameter group. In Figure 5, The specimens with the same hole diameter of 6 mm and five distances between the edge of the hole and the impact point of 5/10/15/20/30 mm are defined as the impact distance group. The specimen is identified as ABC, where A is the hole diameter, as well as B represents the distance between the impact point and hole. C stands for impact energy.

3.1.2 Effect of hole diameter

A comparison of the hole diameter group on damage morphology is shown in Figure 4. In general, fiber breaking between the edge of the holes and the impact points with foam cracking and debonding are observed on the perforated specimens, while delamination and foam debonding on the unperforated specimens. Differing from the upper surface of the perforated specimens, fiber breaking, and delamination areas are not observed on the bottom surface, which signifies that the impact hammer head fails to break through the sandwich panel specimens, indicating that specimens retain a certain amount of residual strength. Moreover, with the diameter of the hole increasing, dents, delamination areas, and fiber breakings are more noticeable. The final failure modes are the crushing of the upper panel matrix with foam core, fiber breakage, and delamination of the upper panel.

The response history, including force–time (Ft), force–displacement (Fd), and absorbed energy–time (Et) curves, as well as a comparison of both the peak force and displacement of the impact distance group, is shown in detail in Figure 5. Overall, the double peak force and the oscillation after the twice peak can be observed in Ft and Fd curves. Notably, after achieving the initial peak force, the curves decline rapidly. Corresponding with the damage morphology, it indicates the delamination and fiber breaking of the upper surface which is insufficient to support the existing loads. When the foam core is compressed while being in contact with the bottom surface, the curve rises twice to form the second peak, and then oscillation appears. In Figure 5(c), the energy curves show a similar upward trend reaching the energy value set in the LVI test, which indicates that the foam sandwich panel specimens have an excellent energy absorption capability. As is shown in Figure 5(d), with the hole diameter increasing the maximum force declines, while the maximum displacement rises, up to 11.83%.

3.1.3 Effect of impact distance

Three views of the visual damage morphology of the impact distance group are pictured in Figure 6. Overall, in all types of cases, visual delamination area is observed in the contact face, but their bottom surfaces have no impact damage. Furthermore, different degrees of damage are found in the transverse fracture morphology of foam core sandwich panels. It is worth noting that the largest delamination area and fiber breaking at the hole edge are observed in 6-5-32 J, and its foam core bears severe foam cracking and debonding.

Figure 6

The response history, including Ft, Fd, and Et curves, as well as the comparison of both the peak force and displacement of the impact distance group, is shown in detail in Figure 7, respectively. Overall, the double peak force and a similar trend are observed in Ft and Fd curves of all kinds of cases, but their different maximum force and maximum displacement are shown in Figure 7(d). It is interesting to see the sharp increment and decline around the first peak force, while the flat increment and decline around the second peak force. Combined with the three views of damage morphology, it is clearly indicating the penetration of glass fabric cloth skin. The second force peak is formed by the contact between the impactor and the inner foam core. Contrary to visual damage morphology, all cases suffer invisible fiber breaking because two peak forces are found in the Ft curves. Besides, the increase of maximum force and the decrease of maximum displacement with the increase of impact distance are shown in Figure 7(d). Therefore, the strength and stiffness are improved as the impact point is far away from the hole.

3.2 CAI behavior

3.2.1 Effect of hole diameter

The Fd curves and comparison on both maximum load and CAI strength of the hole diameter are pictured in Figure 8. Overall, a similar trend is observed in Fd curves of all kinds of cases, but there are different peak forces and their displacement at that time. The Fd curve usually shows the behavior in three stages. The first stage is the incomplete contact stage, which is characterized by a non-linear curve. This stage is relatively short because the fixture and the foam sandwich plate fail to contact fully, and the load slowly increases. The second stage is the axial compression, where the load increases linearly with displacement. The slope of the curve decreases as the load approaches the peak load, and then, the specimen buckles and fails. The last stage is the buckling failure stage, where the displacement continues to increase, and the load begins to decrease as the specimen buckles and incurs damage. It is worth noting to see the sharp increment and decline around the peak force, while a certain bearing capacity after peak force is observed. The maximum force and CAI strength increase with the increase in hole diameter are shown in Figure 8(b).

When the peak force is reached, the compression morphology of the side surface of the hole diameter group is recorded as shown in Figure 9. For 0-15-32 J, 4-15-32 J, and 8-15-32 J, out-of-plane buckling occurs at two positions, buckling to both sides at the hole and impact point, respectively, and their buckling morphology is S-shaped. However, for 6-15-32 J and 10-15-32 J, only one out-of-plane buckling is observed around the hole and the impact point.

3.2.2 Effect of impact distance

As is shown in Figure 10, the Fd curves and comparison of both maximum load and CAI strength of the impact distance group are similar to those of the hole diameter group. It is easy to find the maximum force, CAI strength, and displacement at peak force increase with the impact distance. Furthermore, for the specimens subjected to the impact with an impact distance larger than 15 mm, their CAI strength drop is very small as shown in Figure 8(b). Therefore, if the impact position is too close to the hole, the CAI strength will be greatly reduced, such as in the specimen with a 6 mm hole and a 5 mm impact distance.

                     (a) Contact force–displacement curves and (b) comparison of both the maximum load and CAI strength of the impact distance group in the CAI test.

In conjunction with Figures 10 and 11, as the load increases, the foam sandwich panel specimens initially compress axially. At peak load, the middle of the specimens experiences local buckling in an S-shape. Moreover, the larger strains occur at the edge of the hole and the point of impact. For 6-10-32 J, out-of-plane buckling at two positions, including the hole and impact point, is found clearly. However, for the last specimens, only one out-of-plane buckling is observed around the hole and the impact point.

3.2.3 Comparison of all cases of strain contour

The damage evolution of the virgin specimen and the impacted and open-hole specimen in compression tests, including A–E stages corresponding to their curves, are compared with strain contour in 0° direction in Figure 12. For non-perforated and non-impact specimens, the compressive strain concentration is first in the middle, and then, the specimen is stretched on the upper part and compressed on the lower part. For 6-15-32 J, from moment C to moment E in the Fd curve, the strain around the hole and impact damage changes compressive strain to tensile stress, and finally, the double ends are compressed.

Figure 12

Typical comparison of (a) unperforated; (b) perforated specimens with strain contour.

Figure 13 shows the comparison of all kinds of cases on failure contour in 0° direction. Whether the impact distance or the hole diameter groups, the cases with a hole diameter less than 6 mm are compression at the lower end as well as tension around the hole and impact damage. Especially, for 8-15-32 J and 10-15-32 J, the failure mode changes to compression around the hole and tension at the impact damage. The reason is the larger diameter of the hole and the weaker the cross section, as well as the compressive stress concentration is more likely to occur at the hole.

4 Conclusion

The damage mechanism and failure mode of perforated sandwich panels under LVI and CAI loading are investigated based on the typical response history, damage morphology, and strain contour. Therefore, the following conclusions can be drawn:

  1. Open holes and impact distance significantly weaken the impact property. Under the same incident energy of 32 J, compared with the non-perforated specimen, the maximum force of the specimen with a 6 mm hole and the 5 mm impact distance decreases by 41.21%, and its maximum displacement increases by 38.60%.

  2. The impact and CAI performance are obviously decreased as the hole diameter increases. Under the same incident energy of 32 J, compared with the non-perforated specimen, the maximum force and CAI strength of the specimen with a 10 mm hole diameter and 15 mm impact distance decreased by 27.3% and 12.4%, respectively.

  3. The main forms of impact damage are fiber breaking, matrix cracking, interlaminar delamination, and crushing of foam core. In the CAI test, compared with the impact damage, more significant stress concentration and buckling around the hole are found. However, owing to the good capability for elastic deformation of sandwich panels, significant face-core delamination is not observed.
