The folded sandwich structure might inevitably be impacted at low velocity when it is working, which will lead to the decline of the mechanical properties. The low-velocity impact resistance of the double-layer V-shaped aluminium folded sandwich structure is researched by the finite element method. It was found that the damage mode and the proportion of energy absorption of the double-layer and single-layer folded sandwich structures are different under low-velocity impact, and the impact stiffness and energy-absorbing capacity of the double-layer structure are better than those of the single-layer structure when the impact energy is small. In addition, in view of the low-velocity impact response characteristics of the double-layer V-shaped aluminum folded sandwich structure, two methods are proposed to improve its impact stiffness. Both methods ensure that the total mass of the structure remains unchanged. One method keeps the inner panel still and changes the wall thickness distribution of the top and bottom cores, and the wall thickness of the top core is increased. The other method keeps the wall thickness of the cores unchanged, and the inner panel is moved upward. From the finite element results, it can be seen that after increasing the wall thickness of the top core from 0.25 mm to 0.4 mm, the maximum impact distance of the impactor decreases by 30.3% when the impact energy is 5 J, and it decreases by 23.1% when the impact energy is 10 J, and with 20 J, it decreases by 14.5%. After reducing the height of the top core from 12.5 mm to 5 mm, the maximum impact distance of the impactor is reduced by 22.86% when the impact energy is 5 J, 21.85% when the impact energy is 10 J, and 20.51% when the impact energy is 40 J. The improvement is obvious. The two methods can increase the equivalent density of the top core, which can increase the stiffness of the top core. For the double-layer structure, the stiffness of the top core near the impact point has a greater influence on the low-velocity impact resistance of the entire structure. |
