AB - Little is known about compression crack velocities, and methods to arrest them. Here a sandwich panel was used for characterisation of rapid crack propagation under compressive loading by means of high speed video in conjunction with Digital Image Correlation (DIC). A finite element modelling approach was developed and compared with the test data. This investigation included plain skin panels and panels with thickened regions which showed evidence of crack retardation.
