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 ...
Crashworthiness of pre-impacted glass/epoxy composite tubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Composite materials currently have several uses, including aeronautical, marine, and piping applications. Composites are well-known for their specific strength and stiffness; however, the tolerance of composites to ...
Deformation modes and crashworthiness energy absorption of sinusoidally corrugated tubes manufactured by direct metal laser sintering
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Thin-walled structures are used for crashworthiness energy absorption applications such as automobile vehciles and aircraft. Structures of sinusoidally corrugated profiles were of great interest because of their ability ...
