Triangular lattices were hierarchically incorporated into a regular hexagonal honeycomb to substitute each vertex of the regular honeycomb. To investigate the crushing behaviors of the newly constructed vertex-based hierarchical honeycombs, finite element (FE) analyses were carried out subsequently for both in-plane and out-of-plane crushing. Effect of the hierarchical organizational parameter on deformation mode, crushing response and energy absorption capacity were discussed respectively. The results showed that the hierarchy significantly affected the crushing behaviors of the honeycomb differently for in-plane and out-of-plane crushing. The hierarchy had a far greater influence on the deformation mode for in-plane crushing than out-of-plane crushing. Compared with that of the regular honeycomb, hierarchy not always improved the honeycomb in terms of plateau stress and specific energy absorption (SEA). The maximum plateau stress and SEA of the hierarchical honeycombs increased by up to approximately 127% and 109% respectively under crushing along L direction (in-plane ribbon direction); 122% and 108% respectively under crushing along W direction (in-plane width direction); and 30% and 34% respectively under crushing along T direction (out-of-plane direction).
