Shock Wave Attenuation Characteristics of Aluminum Foam Sandwich Panels Subjected to Blast Loading by Jinglin Xu, Jianqing Liu, Wenbin Gu, Xin Liu, Tao Cao

“…The apparent overall “X” crushing band is produced in the aluminum foam core, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation clearly shows the collapse of the cell wall. Experiments on the sandwich structure with different aluminum foam densities indicate that increasing the relative density results in increased attenuation capability of the aluminum foam and decreased attenuation capability of the sandwich structure. …”
