This report describes engineering studies that were conducted to
examine thedeformation behavior of flat, welded steelsandwich
panels under two quasi-static loading conditions: (1) uniaxial
compression;and (2) bending with an indenter.Testingand analysisare
conducted to studythe force-displacement response of sandwich
structures with different core geometries: (1) pipe or tubular
cores with outer diameters equal to 2, 3, and 5 in;(2) a
2-inchsquare diamond core;and (3) adouble corrugated core called an
X-corewith a 5-inchcore height.Deformation and local collapse modes
of sandwich panels under these loading conditions are also studied.
Moreover, the work described in this report represents basic
researchto investigate the concept of applying welded steel
sandwich structures as a means to offer protection to railroad
tankcars-especially those carrying hazardous materials-in the event
of an accident
