Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental and numerical investigation on energy absorbers for Formula One side impact and steering column impact is described. And the results presented in this study show that the composite structural components of the investigated Formula One racing car possess high value of specific absorbed energy and crash load efficiency around 1.1.
