This paper presents the perforation behaviour of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) foam cored sandwich structures when subjected to quasi-static and dynamic loading at normal (0°) and oblique angles of 10° and 20°. An instrumented drop-weight hammer rig was used with fully-clamped conditions for the...
