Design, fabrication, and analysis of cost effective steel honeycomb structures

Lightweight honeycomb structures helps in considerable weight reduction in industrial applications. The study investigates the effect of reinforcement on the circular core honeycomb structure under axial compression behavior. The numerical analysis for load carrying capacity is performed using Abaqus-CAE. For experimental validation, steel honeycomb panels (with and without reinforcements) are fabricated by furnace-brazing technology in a...
