Multi-Objective Geometry Optimization of Additive-Manufactured Hexagonal Honeycomb Sandwich Beams Under Quasi-Static Three-Point Bending Loading.

This research paper presents the findings of a design optimization analysis conducted on additive-manufactured thermoplastic sandwich structures with hexagonal honeycombs subjected to quasi-static three-point bending. Based on experimental results, finite element analysis, and analytical models, the relationship between four selected design variables (i.e.
