Honeycomb modeling with shell elements

User: "Staedtlerp"

Good morning all,

 

I'm modeling a composite laminate made of carbon fiber layers and honeycomb.

I'm modeling using the pshell elements and MAT8 card. The question is that I don't really know how to fill the material card entries.

I'm using Nomex honeycomb and the properties provided by the supplier are those depicted in the attached photo.

Using MAT8 I need 9 mechanical properties (E1, E2, NU12, G12, Xt, Yt, Xc, Yc, and S, excluding density) but I haven't got these properties and I don't know how to insert the properties provided by the supplier's datasheet.

 

Can anyone help me??

 

Thank you very much
