Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of structural strength testing, specifically relating to a method for simulating cellular equivalent parameters based on probability distribution. Background Technology

[0002] Bionic honeycomb structures, such as aluminum honeycomb or Nomex honeycomb, draw heavily on the hexagonal structure of natural honeycombs. While ensuring structural strength, they can save materials and space to the maximum extent, achieving a combination of lightweight and high performance.

[0003] Honeycomb structures are widely used in engineering due to their lightweight, high strength, high flame retardancy, high corrosion resistance, and excellent wave transmission properties. However, due to the discrete and non-uniform nature of honeycomb structures, it is necessary to calculate their equivalent parameters in practical engineering applications to transform the discrete honeycomb structure into a uniform solid structure.

[0004] Due to material dispersion and errors in the processing and fabrication process, the equivalent parameters of a honeycomb structure are not ideal constants; instead, they follow a specific probability distribution. However, current research on the simulation of the equivalent parameters of a honeycomb structure has not fully considered the probability distribution problem caused by dispersion, resulting in a significant discrepancy between the calculated and actual values. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method for simulating the equivalent parameters of a honeycomb structure based on probability distribution, and to determine the numerical values ​​of the equivalent parameters of a honeycomb structure under a given reliability condition.
