Blast Resistance in Sandwich Structures Based on TPMS

This study analyzes the blast resistance in triple-period minimal surface (TPMS) sandwich panel structures with a cellular structure. The explosion test of the TPMS sandwich panel was carried out, and experimental data verified the effectiveness of the finite element model. Four TPMS configurations, Diamond, Gyroid, IWP, and Primitive, were selected as the core of the sandwich panel to determine the dynamic response process of the TPMS sandwich panel under the action of a blast load. The effects of the thickness of the core material and the explosive charge on the blast resistance in the TPMS sandwich panel were investigated. The results show that the increase in core thickness reduces the blast energy absorption efficiency of the sandwich panel, and the energy resistance in the Diamond configuration sandwich panel is stronger than the other three configurations under the same blast load; the increase in explosive charge significantly increases the displacement of the sandwich panel, and the Gyroid configuration shows better energy absorption effect; different TPMS configurations and panel thickness have a significant effect on the deformation and energy absorption of the sandwich panel under the blast load. The results of this study can promote the application of TPMS sandwich structures in blast-resistant structures.
