摘要：The axial crushing of square multi-cell columns were studied analytically and numerically. Based on the Super Folding Element theory, it theoretical solution for the mean crushing force of multi-cell sections were derived by dividing the profile into 3 parts: corner, crisscross, and T-shape. Numerical simulations of square multi-cell sections subjected to dynamic axial crushing were conducted and an enhancement coefficient wits introduced to account for the inertia effects for aluminum alloy AA6060 T4. The analytical solutions show,in excellent agreement with the numerical results. It wits found that the crisscross part was the most efficient component for energy absorption and the energy absorption efficiency of it single-cell column can be increased by 50% when the section was divided into 3 x 3 cells. Finally, the proposed method was extended to analyze the plateau stress of square cell honeycomb subjected to out-plane axial crushing and to some extent validate the mechanical insensitivity of honeycomb to cell size.
