Abstract:

In order to better clarify the effect of incomplete factors on dynamic performances of cellular material, a re?entrant hexagonal cellular structure with negative Poisson’s ratio is taken as research object. A joint simulation analysis approach with the adoption of Hyperworks and Ls?dyna software is employed to analyze the effect of incomplete factors and impact velocities on its in?plane dynamic performances with the lack of cell wall, and the corresponding deformation modes, stress?strain curves, platform stress curves and energy absorption curves are acquired. The results show that at the same impact velocity, with the increase of incomplete factors, the stable and orderly deformation mode tends to be disordered, and the platform stress and energy absorption capacity will decrease simultaneously. Under low velocity impact, the influence of incomplete factor on its dynamic performances is small, while under high velocity impact, the influence of incomplete factors on its dynamic performances is large, so the existence of incomplete factors should be avoided. The research results in this paper provide data support for the application of cellular structure material in vehicle energy absorbers.
