    Modelling a sandwitch structure in Abaqus

    It's a honeycomb with hexagonal cells. The thing is that i don't have any other parameters besides compression and shear moduli as well as compression and shear strength. Also, I am not sure what damage model I should use for the core. That's why I thought to simplify the problem

    Modelling a sandwitch structure in Abaqus

    For the core, I have values for E3, G13, and G23, with small values for the remaining parameters assumed based on literature. My focus is not on the detailed impact event, such as delamination or the core's exact failure mode. Instead, I aim to assume a post-impact damage state and predict the...

    Modelling a sandwitch structure in Abaqus

    Dear all, I am working with a tapered cylindrical shell featuring the following layup: [45, -45, Aramid honeycomb, -45, 45]. The face sheets are made of CFRC. For the honeycomb core, I have the values for E1, E2, E3, ν12, ν13, G12, G23, G13, as well as the compression and shear strengths in...
