Abstract
Honeycomb structures are light weight cellular structures having high strength to weight ratio with enormous applications in aerospace industry, high speed automobiles, computers and other electronics equipment bodies and recently as flexible structures and mechanisms. In this paper a review of mathematical models for stress strain behaviour of two dimensional honeycomb structures is presented. As proposed by different authors, expressions for in-plane Elastic Moduli and shear Modulus are presented and compared on same scale dimensions. In addition to that, effects of number of unit cells on effective in plane and out of plane Moduli of the testing specimen for regular honeycombs and open and closed cell foams, are also reviewed.
