Impact of thin‐walled square aluminum tubes

Abstract: Thin‐walled profiles are widely used as crash energy absorbers. In this paper thin‐walled square aluminum crash boxes under impact load are studied numerically. ABAQUS commercial software is used for simulating the CBes. The simulated model is validated experimentally using a drop tower test. Folding pattern of a CB has a significant effect on the energy absorption of it. In this study the effects of different parameters such as wall thickness and width on the dynamic behavior and folding pattern of the CB under impact load have been investigated.
