Relative core compressive strength (σ c /σ y )<br />
Cellular Structural Materials<br />
Relative density (ρ/ρ sheet )<br />
• Stronger than honeycomb at<br />
densities <strong>of</strong> interest<br />
• 10X stronger than stochastic foams<br />
• Interesting multifunctionality: use <strong>of</strong><br />
open space for fluids, other materials<br />
