Abstract

This experimental study addresses the progressive crushing of Newport NB321/7781 E-glass fiber-reinforced corrugated panel. The progressive crushing behavior is being studied at quasi-static rates and at selected dynamic loading rates. The number of ply and the laminate gross thickness affects the energy absorbing capability by 58% at various loading rates. The stacking sequence, [0]8 and [0]12 are 40% and 30% greater than [±45]8 and [±45]12, respectively.
