Effect of filler on the impact characteristics of aluminium tubes
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-12-18)
This paper presents the behaviour of empty and foam-filled aluminium alloy (AA6061-T6) tubes under dynamic axial loading. The influence of geometrical and various densities of fillers was investigated by employing a finite ...
An experimental and numerical analysis of empty and foam-filled aluminium conical tubes under oblique impact loading
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
This paper presents the crushing behaviour of empty and foam-filled conical aluminium alloy (AA6061-T6) tubes under oblique impact loading using a validated nonlinear finite element (FE) code, LS-DYNA. The study aims to ...
Dynamic axial crushing of empty and foam-filled conical aluminium tubes: Experimental and numerical analysis
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014-09)
This paper presents the crushing behaviour of empty and foam-filled conical tubes under axial dynamic loading. A nonlinear finite element (FE) model was developed and validated against experiments. The validated model was ...
