Abstract:In the present research, an experimental and numerical study on the crush response of square tube is presented. The explicit Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in LS-DYNA software is carried out to simulate crash behaviour under the quasi-static test conditions. Compression load is applied quasi-statically in an experimental study on the square tube specimens using Universal Testing Machine (UTM). In quasi-static test the bottom platen speed used is 1 mm/min. From experimental testing symmetric collapse mode is obs… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
