ENERGY ABSORPTION OF A SPECIFIC ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB

ONE CONFIGURATION OF AN ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB ENERGY ABSORBER HAS BEEN TESTED UNDER CONDITIONS OF VARYING VELOCITY. A curve of energy per unit volume versus velocity is presented to show dynamic variance. The dynamic stress level and volume efficiency of the material are also presented. The appendices...

Description
Summary:ONE CONFIGURATION OF AN ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB ENERGY ABSORBER HAS BEEN TESTED UNDER CONDITIONS OF VARYING VELOCITY. A curve of energy per unit volume versus velocity is presented to show dynamic variance. The dynamic stress level and volume efficiency of the material are also presented. The appendices give a simple design procedure. (Author)
