Sandwich structure is widely used in various fields of industry due to its excellent strength and stiffness compared with weight. We studied the sandwich structure which has honeycomb core type. We are concerned about its buckling and bending stress with respect to its side length, thickness and the height ratio of its unit core. After obtaining the buckling critical load of unit core, we applied it to the sandwich structure to observe the bending behavior. When we compared the buckling with bending stress under buckling critical load, we observed that models of which length ratio of unit honeycomb core, A, is lower than 0.04 and the thickness of core, t, is thicker than 0.09 mm, is subjected to the ultimate stress by bending before buckling.

Sandwich plate structure is widely used in various fields of industry due to its excellent strength and stiffness compared with weight. In this paper, the mechanical behavior of sandwich plate structure with honeycomb core considering buckling is investigated in detail. The focus of the analysis is to evaluate strength and stiffness of the plate structure with critical stress, natural frequency, and mode shapes. The results of this investigation are obtained from detailed finite element analysis for various parameters, such as length, height ratio, and thickness ratio of honeycomb core

자연에서 안정적이고 경제성이 높은 구조로 벌집 구조가 많이 언급이 된다. 이러한 벌집 구조의 특징으로 인해 많은 공학자들이 그 구조를 모방하여 적용하고 있다. 벌집 구조에도 다양한 종류가 존재하지만 그 중 음의 푸아송 비(Poisson's ratio)를 갖는 Chiral Honeycomb 구조가 많이 연구되고 있다. 푸아송 비는 물질이나 구조의 고유한 물성치로 종, 횡 방향의 변형율로 나타내며 이 값으로 외부 조건으로부터의 변형을 예측 할 수 있게 된다. 흔히 푸아송 비는 양의 값을 가지지만 Chiral Honeycomb 구조는 음의 푸아송 비를 가져 기존의 구조와는 다른 기계적 성질을 가지게 된다. 이 논문에서는 Chiral Honeycomb 구조 중에서도 4개의 관절(ligament)를 가지는 Tetra Chiral Honeycomb 구조에 대해 EDISON용 CASADsovler 프로그램을 통해 유한 요소 해석을 수행하여 등가 물성치를 구해 보았으며 기존 실험의 값들과 비교를 통해 해석을 위해 필요한 적절한 대표 체적에 대해 확인해 보았다.

In this paper, the modified design equation of shielding effectiveness was presented to predict more accurately the shielding effectiveness of honeycomb structure with hexagonal waveguide. The design equation of shielding effectiveness in honeycomb was represented from adding shielding effectiveness of single lattice to shielding effectiveness of infinite array of single lattice. This paper proposed the generalized design equation of shielding effectiveness by analyzing basis lattice of hexagonal waveguide which composes honeycomb structure and infinite array structure of basis lattice. To provide the validity of the modified design equation of shielding effectiveness in this paper, comparison with other available date using 3D EM commercial software is made.

Unlike existing pneumatic tire, NPT(Non-Pneumatic Tire) is a tire replacing air pressure with spokes. NPT has no problem of punk which pneumatic tire has and doesn't need to maintain air pressure. Also it can be used in space where temperature change sharply. In this regard, NPT are attracting attention as next-generation wheels. For optimizing Honeycomb structure, we applied the load to various Honeycomb structure which forms NPT, performed FEM(finite element analysis) using Edison and compared each results.

The aim of this work is a numerical comparison (FEM) between lattice pyramidal-core panel and honeycomb core panel for different core thicknesses. By evaluating the mid-span deflection, the shear rigidity and the shear modulus for both core types and different core thicknesses, it is possible to define which core type has got the best mechanical behaviour for each thickness and the evolution of that behaviour as far as the thickness increases. Since a specific base geometry has been used for the lattice pyramidal core, the comparison gives us the opportunity to investigate the unit cell strut angle giving the higher mechanical properties. The presented work considers a detailed FEM modelling of a standard 3-point bending test (ASTM C393/C393M Standard Practice). Detailed FEM modelling addresses to detailed discretization of cores by means of beam elements for lattice core and shell elements for honeycomb core. Facings, instead, have been modelled by using shell elements for both sandwich panels. On lattice core structure, elements of core and facings are directly connected, to better simulate the additive manufacturing process. Otherwise, an MPC-based constraint between facings and core has been used for honeycomb core structure. Both sandwich panels are entirely built of Aluminium alloy. Prior to compare the two models, the FEM sandwich panel model with lattice pyramidal core needs to be validated with 3-point bending test experimental results, in order to ensure a good reliability of the FEM approach and of the comparison. Furthermore, the analytical validation has been performed according to Allen's theory. The FEM analysis is linear static with an increasing midspan load ranging from 50N up to 500N.

Numerous studies have explored structural antennas for integrating advanced wireless systems into aircraft without altering their external form. However, much of the research on structural antennas has focused on patch antennas, which are characterized by limitations such as narrow frequency bands and low directivity. In contrast, the Vivaldi antenna, widely utilized in wireless applications, offers the advantages of a wide frequency band and high directivity. Nevertheless, its application to aircraft has been challenging due to radiation direction constraints. In this study, we endeavor to address this issue by proposing the application of the antenna patch onto the honeycomb wall, thus enabling the use of the Vivaldi antenna on aircraft. The impact of the honeycomb structure on antenna radiation performance was analyzed, and the potential of the honeycomb Vivaldi antenna was validated through simulation.

Experiments on honeycomb structure collectors (HSC with/without cover) were performed and the experimental results showed good agreement with the preceding analytical results. The tendency of the efficiency of HSC was same with that of conventional air-type solar collector, even though there were some seasonal differences. Therefore, HSC, which can be itself utilized as a part of building structure, is applicable to space heating as well as preheating of industrial process and drying.

Korea's first Naro-Science small class satellite was launched by Naro launcher in 2013. The structure of the satellite is mostly composed of aluminum honeycomb and frame. The honeycomb structure is homogenized with asymptotic homogenization method and its mechanical properties were used for the numerical analysis. There have been some difficulties to modeling the honeycomb sandwich panels for FEA. In the present study, the mechanical characteristics of the sandwich panel composite were numerically computed and used for the simulation. This methodology makes it easy to overcome the weakness of modeling of complicated sandwich panels. Both an experiment of vibration test and numerical analyses were conducted simultaneously. The analysis results from the current homogenization were compared with that of experiment. It shows a good agreement on the dynamic responses and certified the reliability of the present methodology when manipulate sandwich panel structure.

The flutter characteristics of all movable tail wing with honeycomb sandwich structure have been studied in this study. The present wing model has a airfoil cross section and the linear variation of spanwise thickness.

Unsteady aerodynamic technique used on the doublet lattice method has been effectively used to conduct the frequency-domain flutter analyses. The parametric flutter studies have been performed for various structural design parameters. Computational results on flutter stability due to the variation of structural parameters are presented and its related characteristics are investigated through the comparison of results.
