multi-objective crashworthiness optimization of the aluminum foam-filled tubes

چکیده
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 present simulation results with the results of the experiments reported in the previous works indicated the validity of the numerical analyses. a meta-model based on the feed-forward artificial neural networks are then obtained for modeling of both the absorbed energy (e) and the peak crushing force (fmax) with respect to design variables using those data obtained from the finite element modeling. using such obtained neural network models, a modified multi-objective ga is used for the pareto-based optimization of the aluminum foam-filled thinwalled tubes considering three conflicting objectives such as energy absorption, weight of structure, and peak crushing force.

متن کاملOptimization foam filled thin-walled structures for the crashworthiness capability: Review
In automotive industry, foam-filled structures have aroused increasing interest because of lightweight and capacity of energy absorption. Two types of foam filled thin walled structures such as the uniform foam filled (UF) and the functionally graded foam (FGF). To improve crashworthiness performance, FGF are used to fill structures, unlike existing uniform foam materials. In addition, by seeki...
متن کاملFabrication of Aluminum Tubes Filled with Aluminum Alloy Foam by Friction Welding
Aluminum foam is usually used as the core of composite materials by combining it with dense materials, such as in Al foam core sandwich panels and Al-foam-filled tubes, owing to its low tensile and bending strengths. In this study, all-Al foam-filled tubes consisting of ADC12 Al-Si-Cu die-cast aluminum alloy foam and a dense A1050 commercially pure Al tube with metal bonding were fabricated by ...
