The study found that aluminum circular tubes with vertical corrugations have better crashworthiness and energy absorption characteristics. The combination of corrugation number and tube diameter impacts energy absorption capacity, while vertical corrugations increase peak force but result in smoother force-displacement curves. The influence of corrugation number on crashworthiness performance was investigated, and an analytical relationship was developed for mean force based on experimental results. Improved Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (ITOPSIS) was used to select the best structure for energy absorption purposes.
In the present research, the crushing response and crashworthiness characteristics of aluminum circular tubes with and without vertical corrugations were studied. In this regard, crashworthiness characteristics and collapsing behaviors of these structures are analyzed. The tubes of higher diameter under quasi-static axial compression show greater values of crashworthiness indexes compared with those of the tubes with smaller diameter, except SEA of a small tube with 6 vertical corrugations. The energy absorption capacity is enhanced by the combination between small diameter and the number of vertical corrugations. The peak force of the vertically corrugated tubes is greater than that of non-corrugated ones; however, their force-displacement curves are smoother. The influence of the number of vertical corrugations on the crashworthiness performance is studied. An analytical relationship is developed for mean force based on the experimental results and the 'plastic hinge line' concept. A comparison of the analytical results with the experimental ones indicates the reasonable accuracy of the analytical models. Improved Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (ITOPSIS) is employed to select the best structure for energy absorption purposes.
