The Offset Crashworthiness and Parameter Optimization of C-Shaped Frame for Rail Vehicle Anti-Climbing Device
TL;DR: In this paper , a C-shaped frame structure composed of thin-walled steel tubes is proposed to absorb energy stably in the offset collision, and the crashworthiness of the structure was investigated to verify the accuracy and feasibility of the numerical analysis method.

Evaluation of Quasi-Static Axial Crushing Characteristics of Laterally Grooved Square Tube
Dai-Heng Chen,Kuniharu Ushijima +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the axial crushing behavior of square tubes with grooved surface is studied by using the finite element method, and the analysis results of the model predict two modes, called the extensible mode and the inextensible mode, which depend on the aspect ratio.

Dynamic axial crushing of square tubes
W. Abramowicz,Norman Jones +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the axial progressive crushing of square box columns using a kinematically admissible method of analysis was investigated and four deformation modes which govern the behaviour for different ranges of the parameter c/h.

Dynamic axial crushing of circular tubes
W. Abramowicz,Norman Jones +1 more
TL;DR: A series of axial crushing tests on steel circular cylindrical shells loaded either statically or dynamically is reported and compared with various theoretical predictions and empirical relations in this article, where a modified version of Alexander's theoretical analysis for axisymmetric, or concertina, deformations gives good agreement with the experimental results when the effective crushing distance is considered and provided that the influence of material strain rate sensitivity is retained in the dynamic crushing case.

The quasi-static crumpling of thin-walled circular cylinders and frusta under axial compression
A.G Mamalis,W Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, thin-walled circular cylinders and truncated circular cones of aluminium alloy were subjected to axial static loading and their initial axial length and the outside diameter of cylinders and frusta were kept constant whilst their wall thickness was varied.

The effective crushing distance in axially compressed thin-walled metal columns
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified theoretical model of a compressed rigid-linearly strain hardening metal strip is studied and a closed-form solution is derived for the crushing distance of unstiffened as well as transversly stiffened box columns.
