Thermo-mechanical interaction effects including thermal material degradation in polymer foam cored sandwich structures is investigated using the commercial Finite Element Analysis (FEA) package ABAQUS/Standard. Sandwich panels with different boundary conditions in the form of simply supported or restrained face sheet edges and isotropic and orthotropic temperature dependent core properties are analyzed using FEA. Predictions obtained using FEA are compared with results obtained using the High-order Sandwich Panel Theory (HSAPT) for the same combination of loads and boundary conditions, and a good match between the predictions of the two models has been found. </p
