Effect of Core Architecture on Charpy Impact and Compression Properties of Tufted Sandwich Structural Composites

This study presents a novel sandwich structure that replaces the polypropylene (PP) foam core with a carbon fiber non-woven material in the tufting process and the liquid resin infusion (LRI) process. An experimental investigation was conducted into the flatwise compression properties and Charpy imp...
