Lecture
Sandwich Structures: Flexural Rigidity
Description
This lecture explores the measurement of flexural rigidity through bending tests on samples using a three-point bending setup, where different loading conditions generate varying stresses within the samples. The importance of span distance and standards for testing properties are discussed, focusing on sandwich structures designed to enhance rigidity while maintaining weight. A comparison between carbon and honeycomb core sandwich structures highlights the impact of core material on rigidity.
