Abstract

In order to improve the ability of the spacecraft protection system to resisted hypervelocity orbit debris, a composite double-layer honeycomb sandwich structure was proposed in the article. Four sets of models were established, through the method of controlling variables, and the SPH algorithm of the LS-DYNA finite element software was used to analysis the composite honeycomb sandwich structure. The diameter of the aluminum ball was 7mm and the velocity was 5818m/s. The results show that the residual velocity of debris cloud decreases with the increase of the cell diameter of the front-stage honeycomb. and the residual velocity of debris cloud increases with the decreases of the cell diameter of the back-stage honeycomb structure. The energy absorption effect of the composite structure was much higher than that of the traditional honeycomb structure, the remaining speed was reduced by about 64%, and the total energy absorption was increased by 77.6%.
