Influence Factors of Compressive Performance of Composite Foam Sandwich Tube

Composite foam sandwich tube, which is a sandwich structure, improves stability of the tube and strength for use compared with single-layer composite, and is available in civil engineering as bearing member of light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. Axial compression experiment was made for fiber reinforced resin matrix composite foam sandwich tube which is laid in 5 different ways, and the comparing analysis on damage models was made according to experimental phenomenon. The laws of influence is preliminarily recognized by analyzing influence to foam sandwich tube of fiber laying, modulus of fiber, three dimensional elastic modulus ratio, tube radius, tube thickness.
