The key finding is that the asymmetric sandwich panel, which featured a thicker face sheet at the back and a core with a variating cell wall thickness of weak-to-strong, exhibited the highest impact energy dissipation. Specifically, 98.1 J was dissipated with 6970 N of peak load. This surpassed the performance of the sandwich panel with homogeneous cell wall thickness and asymmetric face sheets, which dissipated only 72.1 J and failed at 5406 N. In general, asymmetric configurations were found to dissipate greater energy than symmetric face sheets, and for sandwich plates with homogenous cores, the configuration with the thickest back face sheet proved more resistant to damage than the opposite asymmetric configuration. 1879-1050 https://katalogoa.mondragon.edu/janium-bin/janium_login_opac.pl?find&ficha_no=175907 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11984/6296 Impact behaviour (B) 3D printed composites (A) Bioinspired sandwich Functional graded structure Sandwich structures (C) Impact behaviour of bio-inspired sandwich panels integrally manufactured from 3D printed continuous carbon fibre reinforced polyamide
