Energy Dissipation Enhancement of Thin-Walled 6063 T5 Aluminium Tubes by Combining a Triggering Mechanism and Heat Treatment

It is necessary to reduce the weight of components while maintaining or improving their mechanical properties to withstand dynamic loads in lightweight structures. In this study, heat treatment and a trigger mechanism were implemented for a thin-walled tube of aluminium to increase energy absorption...
