Popis: Abstract This paper investigates sandwich beams with lattice cores under quasi-static bending, owing to their lightweight nature and high energy absorption capabilities. Utilizing analytical methods governing beams, an investigation into their failure mechanisms is conducted, incorporating experimental and numerical results. The influence of thickness and core cell sizes on energy absorption are examined. The analysis delves into the elastic and plastic behavior of the beam, which is refined and validated against the numerical and experimental tests and failure modes of sandwich panel beams. The alignment of analytical predictions with both experimental and numerical results in terms of mean forces, and energy absorptions was remarkably precise. Moreover, evidence has been presented that the face yield and core shear failure regions are significantly impacted by variances in core dimensions. Additionally, the thickness of core cell strands was found to be pivotal in influencing the compressive and shear strengths of sandwich panel beams.
