The dynamics of an underwater explosion bubble interacting with a moveable plate with basic characteristics of a sandwich structure are investigated numerically using boundary element method. The response of sandwich structures is assumed to be a moveable plate with a given velocity profile. The influence of the plate velocity profile, the standoff distance and the scale of the plate on the bubble behaviors are discussed. Within the scope of discussions, the bubble volume and period are a decreasing function of the maximum crushing velocity, the core compression, and the plate dimension, and an increasing function of the standoff distance. Three different regimes of bubble behaviors are distinguished: (1) jet directing towards the plate; (2) the bubble splitting into multiple bubbles or oscillating spherically without jet; (3) jet directing away from the plate. The results indicate that the sandwich plate which can provide larger deformation and larger maximum deformation velocity is beneficial for altering the jet direction to direct away from the plate.
