The aim of this thesis is the development of a methodology for designing functional and load-optimized honeycomb cores using the advantages provided by additive manufacturing. The initial step of this approach is the analyzation and documentation of all the requirements. The second subsequently introduced method allows for the adaption of honeycomb cores on a curved surface. The method of functional integration of elements into honeycomb cores represents the third step in the methodology. The structural optimization of the honeycomb core is carried out by the method of load-dependent optimization of honeycomb cores for sandwich parts. Finally, the methodology is validated by applying it to the design of a satellite component.
