Convergence of finite element model for crushing of a conical thin-walled tube
(Elsevier B.V., 2013)
In this paper, a convergence of finite element model using different types and sizes of mesh modes has been conducted. A thin-walled conical tube was modeled using plane shell element in LS-DYNA software under dynamic axial ...
Foam filling effectiveness of conical aluminium tubes under dynamic axial and oblique loading
(Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN), 2016-06-01)
This paper presents the behaviour of empty and foam-filled conical aluminium tubes under dynamic axial and oblique loading. The effect of foam filling on the energy absorption for variation in geometrical parameter and ...
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 ...
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 ...
