As part of the planned research project, a novel, multi-layered sandwich structure comprising thermoplastic honeycomb cores is to be developed. The design and optimisation of these novel cell wall structures will be carried out using simulation. With the aid of various methods for reducing density, the sandwich-like cell walls are also to be implemented in manufacturing, systematically investigated with regard to material and process parameters, and compared with existing honeycomb structure solutions. Furthermore, by using recycled thermoplastic materials in combination with the newly developed multi-layer honeycomb structure made from a single material, it would be possible to manufacture significantly more sustainable and more rigid sandwich structures cost-effectively and on a large industrial scale.
