Crashworthiness performance of novel pre-deformation method applied square aluminum tubes

Muhammet Muaz Yalcin et al.

Summary: This study investigated the energy absorption capability and crashworthiness performance of Al6063-T4/T6 aluminum alloy square tubes under axial crushing through experimental methods. The use of PVC foam and polyurethane springs as reinforcement materials enhanced the energy absorption value. A novel pre-deformation process was applied to the tube inner surfaces to increase the strength. The experiment revealed that foam filling enhanced the energy absorbed more than wall-crushing, but wall-crushed tubes offered higher specific energy absorption in the T6 temper. The use of polyurethane springs significantly contributed to the crashworthiness performance compared to other samples.

Mechanical performance of multi-cell thin-walled tubes under static and dynamic axial loading

Yaozhou Li et al.

Summary: This study investigates the mechanical performance of multi-cell thin-walled tubes with small aspect ratio and diameter thickness ratio and the same weight through theoretical, numerical, and experimental research. Experimental tests were conducted under static and dynamic axial loading using a lightweight device impact test. The results showed that the dynamic amplification factor (DAF) for multi-cell tubes can be ignored at impact velocities below 50 m/s. Multi-cell partitioning improves energy absorption and reduces the increment of dynamic axial loads in thin-walled structures. The numerical model indicates that dynamic axial impact leads to strain hardening of the matrix material, resulting in increased force.

Crashworthiness optimization of crash box with 3D-printed lattice structures

Wenbin Hou et al.

Summary: This study investigates a novel crash box composed of an aluminum shell and a 3D-printed lattice core. The lattice structures, fabricated using carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 composites, achieved good lightweight and energy absorption characteristics. The kagome lattice structure demonstrated the highest specific energy absorption values through numerical analysis. A multi-objective optimization strategy was utilized to establish the optimal design model for the crash box, resulting in improved energy absorption with mass reduction using the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II).
