Abstract
Compression loaded faces of sandwich members are sometimes subject to local instability phenomena, the most prominent being the wrinkling or rippling and the intracell buckling or dimpling. This chapter presents the mechanics associated with these phenomena and the classical formulas that predict the conditions for inducing these forms of local instability.
