Abstract:
Compared with metals, composites have unique advantages, such as lightweight, high specific strength and suitable stiffness, high energy absorption, and ease of design,making them worthy of special consideration. Corrugating the surface of energy absorbers makes it possible to control and optimize the crashworthy properties of the composite structure. In this study, the effect of corrugation geometric parameters on the tube surface of the glass-epoxy, under oblique and axial impact, was numerically investigated using the ABAQUS software by considering cohesive layers.
