A new study by a Swansea University academic has announced a new mathematical formula that will help engineers assess the point at which cellular materials, which are used a wide range of applications ranging from aerospace to the construction industry, will bend and buckle.<\/p>\n

Professor Sondipon Adhikari, of the College of Engineering has published his findings in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A<\/i> . <\/p>\n

The study details a formula that can calculate the elastic instability of cellular material; in this case, hexagonal lattice material, also known as the honeycomb, commonly used in the production of lightweight structures such as energy absorbent foams, mechanical and acoustic metamaterials and next-generation stent technology<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Professor Adhikari’s formula, which is a simple closed-form expression, will help engineers make quick design calculations and can also be used to benchmark future experimental and numerical studies. <\/p>\n

Professor Adhikari said, “This paper is the result of two years of sustained research. The simple closed-form expression for critical buckling stress can be viewed as the extension of the classical Euler’s critical load formula, first derived in 1757, which calculated the stress point at which a beam will suddenly bend and buckle. This new expression is a 21st century solution for engineering cellular materials that will be used in advanced engineering applications now and in the future.”<\/p>\n
