Overview/IntroductionThisactivityhasitsgenesisinthematerialsscienceresearchconductedatDeakinUniversity’sInstituteofFrontierMaterials.http://www.deakin.edu.au/research/ifm/.

ThisLaboratoryLearningActivity(LLA)addressessomeoftheprinciplesthatarecurrentlybeinginvestigatedthroughresearchanddesignattheInstitute.

Acommonaimofmaterialsscientistsandengineersistocreatematerialswiththegreateststrengthandtheminimumweightandminimumamountofmaterials(minimumcost).Honeycombsandwichstructuresareoftenusedtoachievetheseoutcomesandareusedinaerospace,automotive,housing,packaging,sports-equipmentandotherindustries.
