Analysis of different Polygonal Cellular Structures under Impact Loading

Kranti S. Jadhav | S. R. Sandanshiv

Abstract: Aluminum honeycomb structures have physical as well as mechanical properties includes high strength to weight ratio, high energy absorption capacity, low mass/volume ratio, for this purpose aluminium honeycombs are used in various industrial applications. Sandwich panels with polygonal cores are widely used in different structural applications such as aircraft floor panels, control surfaces, civil engineering structures and many more. The main use of these panels is to reduce weight and material usage. These panels undergo various static and dynamic loading along with thermal environment. This project is an investigative study of different polygonal structures under impact loading which will lead to better selection of the core.
