Crushing Analysis of Empty and Foam-Filled Cylindrical and Conical Corrugated Composite Tubes
In the present article, a numerical study is performed to investigate the crushing behavior of cylindrical and conical corrugated composite tubes. Different aluminum foams are applied to the proposed structures in order to offer an excellent energy absorption capacity. The crushing behavior of tubes are evaluated in terms of two parameters: SEA (specific energy absorption) and CFE (crush force ...
متن کاملNumerical Crashworthiness Analysis of Graded Layered Foam- Filled Tubes Under Axial Loading
In this article, the results of a study on energy absorption characteristics of foam-filled thin-walled structures with finite element analysis have been presented. Four specimens of thin walled structures have been filled with uniform foam and three specimens have been filled with linear four-layered foam. Also, eight layers HLH (High-Low-High) and eight layers LHL (Low-High-Low) have been sim...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Simulation Investigation on Crushing Response of Foam-Filled Conical Tubes Stiffened with Annular Rings
In this paper, crashworthiness characteristics of conical steel tubes stiffened by annular rings and rigid polyurethane foam are investigated. For this purpose, wide circumferential rings are created from the outer surface of the conical tube at some determined areas along tube length. In fact, this method divides a long conical tube into several tubes of shorter length. When this structure is ...
متن کاملMulti-objective Crashworthiness Optimization of the Aluminum Foam-filled Tubes
In order to reduce both the weight of vehicles and the damage of occupants in a crash event simultaneously, it is necessary to perform a multi-objective optimization of the automotive energy absorbing components. In this paper, axial impact crushing behavior of the aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes are studied by the finite element method using commercial software ABAQUS. Comparison of the...
متن کاملModeling & Comparison of Mechanical Behavior of Foam Filled & Hollow Aluminum Tubes by LS-DYNA & Introducing a Neural Network Model
Energy absorption capability of thin-walled structures with various cross sections has been considered by researchers up to now. These structures as energy absorbers are used widely in different industries such as automotive and aerospace and protect passengers and goods against impact. In this paper, mechanical behavior of thin-walled aluminum tubes with and without polyurethane foam filler su...
