Abstract

Abstract

The dynamic mechanical behavior of a metallic hierarchical corrugated sandwich beam subjected to foam projectile impact was systematically studied. After verifying the reliability of the numerical method, the dynamic deformation evolution, quantitative deflection results, deformation failure modes, and energy absorption characteristics of the metallic hierarchical corrugated sandwich beam under different projectile momentum levels were analyzed using Abaqus-Explicit simulation results. Subsequently, three metallic single-layer empty corrugated sandwich beams with different geometric parameters were designed, aiming to compare the shock resistance between single-layer and hierarchical corrugated sandwich beams under equal mass conditions. The results showed that the degree of crushing of the secondary corrugated core on the impact side and the first-order corrugated core of the hierarchical sandwich beam was always greater than that of the rear sandwich’s secondary corrugated core. The final mid-span deflection of the rear face of the hierarchical corrugated sandwich beam was always smaller than the corresponding deflection value of the equivalent mass single-level empty corrugated sandwich beam, demonstrating the superior impact protection performance of the hierarchical sandwich beam. This enhancement mechanism is mainly attributed to the increased energy absorption of the added cellular cores, which protects the rear face sheet. Besides, the plastic longitudinal stretching strength of the hierarchical sandwich beam remains almost unchanged, while the plastic bending strength increases due to the increase in the total beam thickness, thereby enlarging the plastic yield surface of the sandwich structure.
