摘要
As a promising energy absorbing structure, reentrant honeycomb (RH) structures have been focus of interest in recent years. By reasonably adjusting the geometric configuration of the honeycomb cell, advanced structures with unique mechanical properties and deformation behaviors can be designed flexibly and novely. In this work, inspired by the composite laminates, a novel laminated reentrant honeycomb (LRH) structure is developed by controlling the orientations of RH layers for achieving excellent energy absorption capacity. Mechanical and deformation characteristics of the proposed structures under static and dynamic loadings are investigated experimentally and numerically. By comparing with single-layer RH structure with the same thickness, the results demonstrate that LRH structures have better energy absorption capacity. The deformation modes of RH and LRH structures are also discussed and it is noted that the LRH structure with +/- 30 degrees honeycomb sublayers shows zero Poisson's ratio effect. It is worth emphasizing that LRH with 0 degrees and 90 degrees sublayers presents similar negative Poisson's ratio effect with RH by analyzing the equivalent Poisson's ratio-strain curves. In addition, it is found that the latter structure has the best energy absorption capacity when the thickness of single-layer 0 degrees RH structure equals to 5 mm. This work provides a new and reliable thought to design the advanced protective structures under compression and impact loadings.
