Fabrication technology and shear failure behaviours of elastic–porous sandwich structure with entangled metallic wire mesh

Elastic–porous sandwich structure with entangled metallic wire mesh (EMWM) is of particular interest, and is a complex and novel rigid–flexible heterogeneous material. This study introduced the fabrication technology and explored the shear failure behaviours of elastic–porous sandwich structures. The elastic–porous sandwich structure with different configurations such as the side structures, the core relative density and the thickness ratio of...
