Product Description Honeycomb Technology is a guide to honeycomb cores and honeycomb sandwich panels, from the manufacturing methods by which they are produced, to the different types of design, applications for usage and methods of testing the materials. It explains the different types of honeycomb cores available and provides tabulated data of their properties. The author has been involved in the testing and design of honeycomb cores and sandwich panels for nearly 30 years. Honeycomb Technology reflects this by emphasizing a `hands-on' approach and discusses procedures for designing sandwich panels, explaining the necessary equations. Also included is a section on how to design honeycomb energy absorbers and one full chapter discussing honeycomb core and sandwich panel testing. Honeycomb Technology will be of interest to engineers in the aircraft, aerospace and building industries. It will also be of great use to engineering students interested in basic sandwich panel design. | ||

From a practitioner's point of view Most of the information is already available in various suppliers' catalogs and publications. Pictures of application are old and show little detail if any. Advances in facing materials and adhesives were not discussed in length so are the tooling and manufacturing equipment used in this industry. Would appreciate more information on failures and cause of failure of bonded structures. On the plus side there are lots of graphs, tables, illustrations, and examples of calculations which are useful. Reference given are good place to get further information. In general this is an expensive book in hard cover that is meant to be kept on every practitioner's reference bookshelf. | ||
