Abstract: A unified approach to determine the effective elastic properties of irregular and regular honeycomb (Hc) lattice structures is presented. A micromechanics model of a lattice, based on the fundamental periodic element, is ...

Abstract: When a unidirectional (UD) composite is subjected to transverse loading, different fibers are not stressed equally. In this paper, realizations of virtual random representative volume element (RVE) and experimental SEM ...
