Lateral crushing and bending responses of CFRP square tube filled with aluminum honeycomb

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the lateral planar crushing and bending responses of a carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) square tube filled with aluminum honeycomb, and the experimental results showed that energy absorbed (EA) and specific energy absorption (SEA) of the filled CFRP tubes could be significantly increased to 6.56 and 4 times, respectively, of those measured for the hollow tubes without fillings under lateral crushing.

Effect of structural parameters on low-velocity impact behavior of aluminum honeycomb sandwich structures with CFRP face sheets

TL;DR: In this article, low-velocity impact tests are conducted to determine and quantify the effects of structural parameters, such as face sheet thickness, cell wall thickness, honeycomb core height and hexagon side length, on the impact load, energy absorption, and failure mode.

Low-velocity impact behaviour of sandwich panels with homogeneous and stepwise graded foam cores

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact performance of sandwich panels with homogeneous and stepwise graded aluminium foam cores subjected to impact loadings was investigated via experimentation and finite element simulation in a drop-weight impact facility at four different velocities, the results of which were compared in terms of force displacement response, energy absorption and damage status.

Axial crush of metallic honeycombs

TL;DR: In this paper, experimental results for six types of honeycomb cellular structures under quasi-static and impact loads applied in the axial direction are reported, and an increase of up to 74% of the crush strength was observed when the specimens which were loaded dynamically were compared with those loaded under the quasistatic conditions and the increase was found to be proportional to the initial striking velocity of the projectile.

Impact behavior of honeycomb structures with various cell specifications—numerical simulation and experiment

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the cell shape and the foil thickness on crush behavior was investigated by the numerical simulation using an explicit FEM code DYNA3D, and the numerical result showed that the cyclic buckling mode takes place in every case and that the crush strength is higher for smaller branch angle.

Crashworthiness analysis and design of multi-cell hexagonal columns under multiple loading cases

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of multi-cell configurations and oblique loads on the crashworthiness performance have been under studied and it is found that for the same cell number, the number of corners plays a significant role in enhancing energy absorption.
