Popis: The goal of this study was the analysis of the flatwise and edgewise compression response of closed-cell aluminium foam reinforced by the outer skins made of glass fiber reinforced epoxy matrix and the results were compared with those obtained for aluminium foams without glass fiber skins. Aluminium foams were produced by powder metallurgy method. Glass fiber skins were produced in various orientation angles in order to investigate their effects to the efficiency and capacity of absorbing energy of the sandwich. Glass fiber skins were bonded onto the aluminium foam core by epoxy resin in order to fabricate sandwich panels. As a result, the sandwich panels produced has particular importance for transport industries, such as automotive, aerospace, ship structures
