NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL STIFFNESS EVALUATION OF QUILLING INSPIRED STRUCTURES

Vasilica I. CIMPOIEȘ, Mircea C. DUDESCU

Abstract


The present paper is a study of mechanical behavior done upon a range of structures inspired by the paper art of quilling. All the models are similar in geometry, having the same type of parameters and all are variations of one model, that is used as a base for comparison. The purpose is to understand how the stiffness of the structure is influenced by the geometrical parameters of the models. For this study have been chosen four geometrical parameters to be modified, corresponding stiffness being computed as the displacements under a compressive force based on numerical simulations and experimental evaluation of 3D printed structures.
