Thermonuclear Effects on Sandwich-Type Structures.

Abstract

Presence of internal cell pressure during thermal nuclear pulse exposure in honeycomb sandwich structures has been demonstrated. The source of this cell pressure has been shown to be a combination of component outgassing, and the effects of heating a sealed gas (Boyle's law). Cell pressure tests were run at 10 to 50 cal/cm.
