A Comparison of Composite Bars against Metallic Bars from the Mass per Unit Length Point of View

Article Preview

Abstract:

There were built some new original composite sandwich bars with polypropylene honeycomb core and the exterior layers of the bars were made of epoxy resin reinforced with steel wire mesh. For these composite bars, there were determined the stiffness by using two different experimental methods: variant 1- using the Walter-Bai testing machine and variant 2- using the eigenfrequency of the first eigenmode. The errors between these two methods were determined. In the next stage of the paper, some metallic beams, equivalent from the stiffness point of view with the composite ones, were considered. Comparisons between them, from the mass per unit length point of view, were made.
