AbstractThin walled structures have been used in the area of energy absorption during an event of a crash. A lot of work has been done on tubular structures. Due to limitation of manufacturing process, complex geometries were dismissed as potential solutions. With the advancement in metal additive manufacturing, complex geometries can be realized. As a motivation, the objective of this study is to investigate computationally the crash performance of complex tubular structures. Five designs were considered. In was found that complex geometries have better crashworthiness performance than standard tubular structures used currently. 1 2017 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
