Abstract:

The crashworthiness of a biomimetic sandwich panel (BSP) was explored based on the shape of the shrimp chela. The finite element model was set up according to the material data obtained from the tensile test. A sample of BSP was fabricated, and used to verify the finite element model, which was reliable. The crashworthiness indexes of BSP-L0, BSP-L180, BSP-T0 and BSP-T180 were compared, and the BSP-T0 scheme was selected for further study. The influence of arc height ratio γ and trapezoidal cell element narrow bottom width B on the crashworthiness of BSP-T0 was analyzed, and it was obtained that γ has a greater influence than B on the crashworthiness of BSP-T0. Genetic algorithms were used for parameter optimization, an optimal solution of the Pareto frontier is SEA=3.080 kJ/kg, PF=30.700 kN, CFE=86.884%, the corresponding parameters are γ=0.355,B=4.23 mm, the errors of prediction and simulation results are all within 2%, and the prediction effect was ideal. The research results can provide new ideas for the design of sandwich structures.
