Stress analysis of U-type layered sandwich beams

Abstract

In this paper, the U-type symmetric sandwich beams with three layers are analyzed. Variations in the ratio of Young's modulus between the skin and core, as well as the curvature radius (R/H), parameters are considered for the U-type beams. The study investigates the influence of various core materials on the U-type beams. The stress analysis is conducted through numerical simulations utilizing the Finite Element Method software ANSYS.
