Dynamic energy absorption characteristics of foam-filled conical tubes under oblique impact loading
Abstract
This paper treats the crush behaviour and energy absorption response of foam-filled conical tubes subjected to oblique impact loading.Dynamic computer simulation techniques validated by experimental testing are used to carry out a parametric study of such devices.The study aims at quantifying the energy absorption of empty and foam-filled conical tubes under oblique impact loading, for variations in the load angle and geometry parameters of the tube.It is evident that foam-filled conical tubes are preferable as impact energy absorbers due to their ability to withstand oblique impact loads as effectively as axial impact loads.Furthermore, it is found that the energy absorption capacity of filled tubes is better maintained compared to that of empty tubes as the load orientation increases.The primary outcome of this study is design information for the use of foam-filled conical tubes as energy absorbers where oblique impact loading is expected.
