Prediction of Crushing Behaviour of Honeycomb Structure
نویسندگان
چکیده
A finite element methodology has been developed for predicting the behaviour of honeycomb structures. Dynamic analysis of hexagonal aluminium honeycomb structures is carried out using PAM-CRASH, an explicit FE analysis code, and the result are verified against experimental data. Relationship between the crushing behaviour of honeycomb and simulation parameters has been established. The simulation results are also compared with theoretically predicted values.

A Study on Metal Hexagonal Honeycomb Crushing Under Quasi-Static Loading
In the study of honeycomb crushing under quasistatic loading, two parameters are important, the mean crushing stress and the wavelength of the folding mode. The previous theoretical models did not consider the true cylindrical curvature effects and the flow stress in the folding mode of honeycomb material. The present paper introduces a modification on Wierzbicki’s model based on considering tw...
متن کاملCrush dynamics of square honeycomb sandwich cores
Square honeycombs are effective as cores for all-metal sandwich plates in that they combine excellent crushing strength and energy absorption with good stiffness and strength in out-of-plane shear and in-plane stretch. In applications where sandwich plates must absorb significant energy in crushing under intense impulsive loads, dynamic effects play a significant role in the behaviour of the co...
