Abstract
This study focuses mainly on preparation the honeycomb laminate structure as composite material and studies the effect of cell shape of core, core material and number of skin layers on some mechanical and morphological tests (flexural, impact, hardness and SEM). The materials that are used in this study are epoxy, sic, glass fiber and graphite. Also the Ansys program are used in this study which appear good agreement between the experimental and numerical results.
The discussion was conducted in a scientific atmosphere, and the student was awarded a MSc. degree with a (Pass ) grade after completing all the modifications that were made by the discussants
