Hybrid sandwich structures show superior specific impact and residual strength under compressive loading, outperforming conventional composite sandwich configurations.
Kevlar face specimens display deeper indentation depths and narrower damage widths under low-velocity impacts, whereas S-glass face counterparts undergo compressive buckling.
Assessment using computed tomography and compression after impact testing evaluates damage tolerance, highlighting hybrid sandwich designs with expanded industrial utility.
