Abstract Thin-walled beams are widely applied as energy-absorbing components in industrial products to meet the requirements of passive safety. Researchers have tried various approaches to improve the energy absorption efficiency of them. Recently, adopting arched beams was proposed by researchers to improve the crashworthiness of beams under transverse loads. Arched beams can switch the transverse forces to axial forces and were reported to show very much better crashworthiness performances than straight beams.
Although adopting arched beams is an effective way to improve the performance of beams under transverse loads, the fabrication of arched beams is more… More >
