TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental and analytical investigation is carried out to examine the in-plane compressive response of pyramidal truss core sandwich columns, and failure maps are constructed for sandwich columns made from an elastic ideally-plastic material and AISI 304 stainless steel which has a strongly strain hardening response.

TL;DR: In this article, an examination of the mechanical response of sandwich panels with pyramidal truss cores has been performed in compression and shear, following the introduction of unbound nodes between the core and face sheets.

TL;DR: In this paper, the in-plane compressive response of corrugated core sandwich columns is investigated analytically, numerically, and experimentally, and the results demonstrate that the predictions accurately capture both the critical failure load and failure mechanism.

TL;DR: In this article, the compression response of extruded aluminum 6061-T6 corrugated core sandwich columns is investigated, and analytical equations that predict the collapse load are used to generate failure mechanism maps.
