The most advanced, reliable materials are necessary to ensure optimal safety, longevity, and strength in aerospace demanding applications.
Aerospace materials must be lightweight to allow for optimal aerodynamics; strong to ensure the safety of pilots and passengers and to withstand the physical forces of flying; and heat resistant to ensure structural changes are kept to a minimum during the sudden and extreme temperature fluctuations that occur at both high-speed and high-altitude flight. Honeycomb structure can effectively meet all of the above requirements. What is a honeycomb structure?
Honeycomb structures are natural or man-made structures that have the geometry of a honeycomb to allow the minimization of the amount of used material to reach minimal weight and minimal material cost. The geometry of honeycomb structures can vary widely but the common feature of all such structures is an array of hollow cells formed between thin vertical walls. The cells are often columnar and hexagonal in shape. A honeycomb shaped structure provides a material with minimal density and relative high out-of-plane compression properties and out-of-plane shear properties.
Man-made honeycomb structural materials are commonly made by layering a honeycomb material between two thin layers that provide strength in tension. This forms a plate-like assembly. Honeycomb materials are widely used where flat or slightly curved surfaces are needed and their high strength is valuable. They are widely used in the aerospace industry for this reason, and honeycomb materials in aluminium, fibreglass and advanced composite materials have been featured in aircraft and rockets since the 1950s. They can also be found in many other fields, from packaging materials in the form of paper-based honeycomb cardboard, to sporting goods like skis and snowboards. The main use of honeycomb is in structural applications. The standard hexagonal honeycomb is the basic and most common cellular honeycomb configuration. Industrial Applications of Honeycomb structures
Honeycomb structures, inspired from bee honeycombs, had found widespread applications in various fields, including architecture, transportation, aerospace, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, nano-fabrication, and recently bio-medicine. Understanding the design principles underlying the creation of honeycomb structures and the related scientific discovery and technology development is critical for engineering bio-inspired materials and devices designed based on honeycomb structures for a wide range of practical applications.
Although honeycomb composites are not quite as light as other materials, such as standard laminates (depending on the number of layers), they offer other unique benefits. Honeycomb can be as much as 40 times stronger than laminates in certain scenarios, for instance, and often offers better weight-to-strength ratios. Also, load carry and load transference are much greater in honeycomb than in laminate. Aluminum honeycomb is used in various aerospace applications and is becoming the go-to material for critical substructures in rockets, aircraft, and jet engines, and propellers, as well as similar non-aerospace structures, such as wind turbine blades. In less sensitive applications, aluminum honeycomb is also used in aircraft heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. Learn more about Honeycomb Structure Machining
