Nowadays, lightweight and eco-friendly composites with improved mechanical properties are highly interesting. Sandwich-structured composites are a type of high-performance structural composite that is lightweight with a high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent specifc energy absorption capabilities. In this study, cork-based sandwich structures resistant to impact and vibrations were designed and produced for the possibility of being used in the protective structures of low-speed aerial vehicles. To identify and match the best combination of different face sheets with a cork core, first, aramid fabric-reinforced polymer (AFRP), carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP), and glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) face-sheet composites were produced using the compression molding method (prepreg layup). Then, sandwich structures consisting of AFRP, CFRP, GFRP, and aluminum face sheets with a fixed core layer of cork were designed and assembled. Since the design goal of these structures is to use them in low-speed aerial vehicles, impact deceleration and vibration tests were applied to face sheets and sandwich structures individually, which are the most important factors involved in these structures during fight, particularly in rotary-wing drone applications. A low-energy drop-tower system was used for the calculation of deceleration results. Besides, the vibration properties of the structures were investigated using the modal analysis method and based on the natural frequency responses of the tested face sheets and sandwich structures, damping ratios and structural stiffness were measured. According to the results, compared to other face sheets, CFRP showed better resistance along with the cork core, when the structure was exposed to impact and vibration threats. This study provides useful information on cork core sandwich structures for academic and industrial researchers in choosing the right face sheet.
