Honeycomb structure of the honeycomb remains roughly constant. Once a certain strain is reached, the material will begin to undergo densification as further compression pushes the cell walls together. Out of-plane loading: Under out-of-plane loading, the out-of-plane Young’s modulus of a regular hexagonal honeycombs is proportional to the relative density of the honeycomb. The elastic buckling stress is proportional to (t/L) while the plastic buckling stress is proportional to (t/L). The shape of the honeycomb cell is often varied to meet different engineering applications. Shapes that are commonly used besides the regular hexagonal cell include triangular cells, square cells, and circular-cored hexagonal
Cubic honeycomb {4,3,5}, of hyperbolic space with 5 cubes around each edge. It is in a sequence of polychora and honeycomb with octahedral vertex figures. It in a sequence of regular polytopes and honeycombs with cubic cells. The [4,3,4], , Coxeter group generates 15 permutations of uniform tessellations, 9 with distinct geometry including the alternated cubic honeycomb. The expanded cubic honeycomb (also known as the runcinated tesseractic honeycomb) is geometrically identical to the cubic honeycomb. The [4,3], , Coxeter group generates 9 permutations of uniform tessellations, 4 with distinct geometry including the alternated cubic honeycomb. This honeycomb is one of five distinct
