Title: Modal analysis of a composite sandwich panel used in the structure of an hybrid bus
Issue Date: 2015-06-15
Abstract: The rear module of an hybrid bus was redesigned in a joint effort by Volvo andIDMEC in the framework of the european project HCV Hybrid Commercial Vehicle (GrantAgreement No 234019), replacing most of the metallic frame and other components with compositesandwich panels. The redesigned bus overall weight was reduced by approximately900kg. This paper presents the numerical and experimental modal analysis of a sandwichpanel that was produced using the same materials and production process used to produce themain prototype rear component.
