Equivalent mechanical properties for cylindrical cell honeycomb core structure

Structural members made up of two stiff, strong skins separated by a lightweight core are known as sandwich panels. The separation of the skins by the core increases the moment of inertia of the panel with little increase in weight, producing an efficient structure against in-plane and out-of-plane loadings. In general, the mechanical behavior of cellular structures is given by the effective elastic modules, which are also dependent on the...
