Abstract
To study the influence of structure size and composite forms on the mechanical properties of the composite double honeycomb sandwich structure, a composite double honeycomb sandwich structure was initially designed. The dynamic response of a composite double-layer honeycomb sandwich structure under high-speed impact was studied through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. Ls-dyna software was used to simulate the initially designed composite structure. According to the numerical simulation results and the proposed method for calculating the fracture energy of the composite double honeycomb sandwich structure, the effects of different composite forms on the mechanical properties were analyzed. The results show that the proposed fracture energy calculation method can effectively describe the variation trend of the honeycomb structure and the micro-element fracture situation in the valid time. The fracture energy curve has a high sensitivity to cell density and material, and the strength of the top core has a great influence on the overall energy absorption. Compared with the traditional honeycomb protection structure, the energy absorption of the initially designed composite honeycomb sandwich structure was improved effectively.
