| Abstract | ||||
| This paper presents the results of the experimental program of three type of sandwich panel; corrugated, web, two-directional corrugated core sandwich panel. Also the current research developed finite element models to simulate the three tested panel under point load up to failure and the model was verified by comparing the results with those obtained from the tests. The numerical simulation gives a better understanding of the behavior of the three types of panel under the point load in terms of the internal forces, deflection and failure modes of the different parts, the top skin, the bottom skin and the core. | ||||
