Stress based topology optimization of axial tubes under impact to improve energy absorption
Abstract: The present study is aimed at designing a stress constrained topology optimized tube to improve the specific energy absorption (SEA) and reduce the peak crushing force. The research was aimed to develop an axial tube to withstand high impact loads thus improving the crash worthiness of the structure. Crash analysis of a 3D deformable circular tube having different thickness of 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 1.5 mm and 2 mm with …
