Abstract

Free vibration modes of foam-core sandwich plates with and without polymer columns were experimentally identified from frequency response tests. The responses were made at selected locations on the plate surface by attaching a single-axis accelerometer to measure out-of-plane response. Resonant frequencies, relative damping ratios and mode shapes were established for the lowest 3 out-of-plane modes found in the frequency range of 0-900 Hz. The results show that the vibration characteristics were affected by the sandwich structure configuration and material properties.
