Mechanical properties of a balsa wood veneer structural sandwich core material

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Niloufar Vahedi

Balsa wood is an appropriate core material for structural sandwich applications due to its high strength- and stiffness-to-weight ratios. However, the mechanical properties vary considerably owing to the inherent scattering of natural wood materials. One a ...
