Dynamic axial crushing of empty and foam-filled conical aluminium tubes: experimental and numerical analysis

This paper presents the crushing behaviour of empty and foam-filled conical tubes under axial dynamic loading. A nonlinear finite element (FE) model was developed and validated against experiments. The validated model was subsequently used to assess the beneficial of foam filling with regards to the...
