Hello!

I have a question about  sandwich core technique.
That is...

For example,
If I use  two set of  5mm nomex honeycomb core(10mm thick in total) to  make a sandwich panel,
is it  as strong as  a single 10 mm nomex honecomb core panel?
the  double 5mm sandwich has reasonable strength?
or the double 5mm sandwich is easy to break?


actually,
I want to build a curved sandwich panel.
I tried a 10mm thick  nomex honeycomb core at first,
but the 10mm thick core was too strong to bend.

 I wonder that if I use  a 5mm core,then laminate,bend  and add one more 5mm honeycomb core.
I mean,,  the sandwich is   CFRP>honeycomb core(5mm)>CFRP>honeycomb core(5mm)>CFRP.
If this idea is O.K. I will be able to build thick and strong curved sandwich panels.


Any advice,
I would be happy.

Thanks,







 

You have a blank sheet of paper,you can do what you want but now comes the hard part-you have to think outside of the box !

I have spent the last 30 years watching people make everything from bikes to tables to toilets !

90% of these people have tried to do a direct copy and make what they already have in carbon with usually very poor results but the other 10% make the product using the best aspects of the material and look and perform nothing like the original

few examples (I would put direct links but im a computer idiot !)

1-Lotus Chrid Boardman bike

2-Established & sons carbon table by John Barnard 4mts long and 2mm thick !

3 Skelletron guitar

4-splinter works bath

5-Madfibre carbon wheel

good luck

Thanks!
I searched the 1-5 CFRP items.
The CFRP furniture is so stylish!

I think I should continue to design the CFRP wheelchair.
I believe that I can improve wheelchair.

I will post again if my design is finished.
