Discrete modeling of the crushing of nomex honeycomb core and application to impact and post-impact behavior of sandwich structures

In this chapter, an original method for modeling the behavior of sandwich structures during and after impact is proposed and validated. It is based on the demonstration that Nomex honeycomb behaves in a post-buckling mode very early and that compression forces are taken up by the corners or verti...
