Study on the dynamic response and energy absorption mechanism of foam and fiber orthogonal corrugated sandwich structures under projectile penetration

Key Points

• Dynamic response significantly varies based on material composition and geometric configuration, leading to different energy absorption rates.
• The study observes a notable energy absorption capacity in structures comprised of foam and fiber layers, particularly under high-impact scenarios.
• Analysis of structural integrity during projectile penetration reveals key mechanisms by which energy is dissipated across the materials.
• Findings suggest that optimizing foam and fiber arrangements may improve performance and safety in protective applications.
