Material characterization of PVC foam under static and dynamic loading
conference paper
To support the development of sandwich composite failure models, a series of material coupon tests were performed to characterize foam core material response under quasi-static and dynamic tension loading. Material stress strain response was found to be highly nonlinear and dependent on the loading orientation relative to the axis of the foam sheet. At low to moderate strain rates, less than 150 sec -1 , tension strength and modulus were both increased and ultimate strain at failure decreased
