Energy absorption capability of thin-walled aluminium tubes under crash loading
(
Universiti Malaysia Pahang
, 2015 , Article)
This paper investigates the interaction of design factors such as tube thickness, tube length, and tube cross-sectional aspect ratio, along with friction and impacting mass on crashworthiness parameters such as specific ...
Experimental analysis of additively manufactured thin-walled heat-treated circular tubes with slits using AlSi10Mg alloy by quasi-static axial crushing test
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, additively manufactured aluminum thin-walled tubes with different slit dimensions are proposed to improve energy absorption efficiency. A total of 18 samples, which varied in the number of slits, slit length, ...
Collapse behavior of thin-walled corrugated tapered tubes under oblique impact
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Thin-walled structures are used in safety applications such as automotive vehicles and locomotives because of their efficient energy absorption, light weight, and reduced manufacturing cost. The performance of these ...
Design of thin wall structures for energy absorption applications: Enhancement of crashworthiness due to axial and oblique impact forces
(2013 , Article)
This paper describes a computationally aided design process of a thin wall structure subject to dynamic compression in both axial and oblique directions. Several different cross sectional shapes of thin walled structures ...
Collapse behavior of thin-walled corrugated tapered tubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Thin-walled structures have been widely used in energy absorption and safety applications such as automotive, due to their lightweight and progressive folding modes. This work studies the collapse behavior and energy ...
