Abstract

Honeycomb sections are bonded together with seams made up of an adhesive that is carried by a honeycomb seam support or a linked-segment seam support. The seams are particularly useful for splicing together curved honeycomb sections that contain acoustic septum. The curved acoustic honeycomb sections are spliced or seamed together to form engine nacelles and other acoustic dampening structures.
