E-Book Overview

Chapman & Hall, 1997. — 233 p.This book deals with honeycomb and honeycomb sandwich construction. After reading this book you will have a good understanding of what honeycomb is, how it is manufactured, and how to use it. You also will have the necessary knowledge to design honeycomb sandwich panels and honeycomb energy absorption systems. The honeycomb manufacturing methods, materials, cell configuration, terminology and uses are all explained. The basic honeycomb sandwich concepts are discussed, failure modes shown and the standard design formulas given. The standard honeycomb and sandwich test methods are also reviewed.The basic concept of honeycomb sandwich construction is to use thin, dense, strong facing materials bonded to a thick, lightweight honeycomb core. This produces the most efficient strength-to-weight and stiffness-toweight structures attainable. Honeycomb is a unique and interesting material configuration that offers many advantages such as good mechanical properties, excellent crushing properties, low dielectric properties, low thermal conductivity coefficients, fluid control, good acoustic properties, small cross-sectional area, and large exposed area within the cells.This book was written using the Imperial unit system of pounds, inches, etc. (fps units). Whenever possible the SI units are also given in parentheses. To convert to SI units the following conversion factors are given.
