Progressive Failure and Energy Absorption of Aluminum Extrusion Damage
Aluminim Tubular structures are of interest as viable
energy absorbing components in vehicular front rail
structures to improve crashworthiness. Desirable tools
in designing such structures are models capable of...
Crashworthiness Optimization of Foam-filled and Empty Spot-welded Columns
To improve crashworthiness efficiency, aluminum foam has been adopted as one of new
filler materials in engineering. Introduction of the foam material changes the crash behavior of
structural component and make necessary exploration...
An experimental and numerical crashworthiness investigation of crash columns assembled by spot-weld
This paper presents a crashworthiness design of thin walled spot-welded columns made from mild steels. Systematic parametric studies are carried out to study the effect of geometrical parameters. It is also shown that the crash response could...
Effect of stiffeners on crashworthiness of square aluminium columns considering damage evolution
Combining the optimization and FEM technology, crashworthiness of aluminum extrusions was studied for an automobile
safety plan. The effects of longitudinal stiffeners on the crushing of stiffened square columns were studied considering...
Optimization of foam filled spot-welded column for the crashworthiness design
To improve crashworthiness efficiency, aluminum foam has been adopted as one of new filler materials in engineering. Introduction of the foam material changes the crash behavior of structural component and make neces-sary exploration of more...
