Design a new energy absorber longitudinal member and compare with S-shaped design to enhance the energy absorption capability
A numerical investigation study of both direct and oblique crush loading was implemented. The study used ductile metallic alloy (mild steel A36) and magnesium alloy (AZ31). The study used hexagonal tube as longitudinal members. The current design consists of two parts, the inner tube which is the lo...
