Abstract: Materials are usually stronger in fibrous form than in bulk form. Composites are made from bonding two materials, where the reinforcement contributes with the outstanding natural properties and the matrix supports the fibers by transferring the loads between them, besides protecting the fiber from the environment hazards. Consequently, cr...

A structural sandwich consists of two thin face sheets made from stiff and strong relatively dense material such as metal or fiber composite bonded to a thick light weight material called core. This construction has often used in lightweight applications such as aircrafts, marine applications and wind turbine blades. In this paper the structural an...
