Homogeneous and Honeycomb Core Coefficients — Lesson 3

What are the homogeneous and Honeycomb Core Coefficients?

The honeycomb core coefficient is the wrinkling coefficient for a sandwich face. A lower Q equals a safer value. For sandwich laminates with homogeneous cores sheets, the default value is Q=0.5. For sandwich laminates with honeycomb cores, the default value is Q=0.33.
