The use of a dynamical constitutive model is essential for the numerical analysis of dynamic
impact. In this study, uniaxial tension tests were conducted on aluminum alloy (AA) 6016-T6 …

The traditional structural optimal design methods aiming to generate a global optimum may
fall into the unfeasible domain due to the presence of uncertainty. This issue can be …

The undesirable stresses and deformations during a high-speed crash can cause a short
circuit or sudden fire in the battery packs, which represents a significant safety concern for …

Thin-walled tubular components are featured in transport structures for increased occupant
protection in the event of a crash. However, when the limits of their design are sought …

The effects of variations in the chemical composition of an aluminium alloy AA6005 on the
axial crushing and bending behaviour of a double chamber extruded profile are investigated …

Abstract Die-cast Al–Si aluminium alloys are increasingly used in the lightweight design of
automobiles; their mechanical properties under dynamic loading are crucial and thus must …

This study develops a systematic design methodology based on data mining theory for
decision-making in the development of crashworthy vehicles. The new data mining …

Abstract The Johnson-Cook model, widely used in numerical analysis, is typically derived
from split Hopkinson pressure bar tests, which are costly, time-consuming, and challenging …

The design and development of crashworthy vehicles depend increasingly on credible crash
simulation results. This credibility requires a careful process of verification and validation …

Efficient surrogate modelling is a key requirement for uncertainty quantification in data-
driven scenarios. In this work, a novel approach of using Sparse Random Features for …
