Quasi-Static Penetration Resistance of Bio-Inspired Helicoidal Honeycomb Sandwich Panels: Experiments, Simulations, and Damage Mechanisms

Bio-inspired helicoidal laminates can redirect damage under transverse loading, but their response as sandwich face sheets remains unclear because the core changes both deformation and load transfer. This study experimentally and numerically investigated the quasi-static penetrat...
