Abstract
This study presents a high-temperature Corrugated-core Radar-Absorbing Sandwich Composite (CRASC) with stable electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption at temperatures up to 300 °C. The corrugated-core design facilitates broadband radar absorption and stable performance despite thermal fluctuations, achieving the goal of thermal insulation performance of the designed Thermal Gradient Insulation Multilayer (TGIM). Electromagnetic simulations analyzed the effect of variations in electromagnetic properties on the radar-absorbing capability of the structure. Based on these analyses, a radar-absorbing structure incorporating two corrugated cores was designed, and fabricated using an autoclave and a hot press. The − 10 dB bandwidth of the fabricated CRASC at room temperature was confirmed to be 5.8 to 17.2 GHz. The radar-absorbing performance of the fabricated specimens was evaluated in a furnace, with temperatures ranging from room temperature to 300 °C. These results confirmed that the − 10 dB bandwidth remained stable despite temperature variations while maintaining the wide absorption bandwidth and thermal insulation.
期刊介绍:
The past few decades have seen outstanding advances in the use of composite materials in structural applications. There can be little doubt that, within engineering circles, composites have revolutionised traditional design concepts and made possible an unparalleled range of new and exciting possibilities as viable materials for construction. Composite Structures, an International Journal, disseminates knowledge between users, manufacturers, designers and researchers involved in structures or structural components manufactured using composite materials.
The journal publishes papers which contribute to knowledge in the use of composite materials in engineering structures. Papers deal with design, research and development studies, experimental investigations, theoretical analysis and fabrication techniques relevant to the application of composites in load-bearing components for assemblies, ranging from individual components such as plates and shells to complete composite structures.
