This work deals with the influence of geometry on the equivalent transverse shear stiffness of honeycomb sandwich plates. First, it presents the analytical solution for a two-dimensional basic cell of honeycomb structures by the two scale method of homogenization for periodic media. This solution gives the first order equivalent transverse shear modulus of honeycomb structures. Then the equivalent transverse shear stiffness of a regular honeycomb core is evaluated by the finite element method using a three-dimensional basic cell and the analytical solution for honeycomb structures. Based on the numerical study, an improved lower limit for the equivalent transverse shear stiffness of honeycomb cores is proposed, and an improved local shear stress of honeycomb is presented.
