Wrapping the structures with composites and adopting multi-cell sections are two typical
methods to improve the crashworthiness of thin-walled beams. However, the effects of …

This paper aims to explore the failure modes and crashworthiness characteristics of double
hat shaped tubes made of weave carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) subjected to quasi …

Examination of stacking sequence effect is essential in optimising the properties of synthetic
fibre reinforced hybrid polymer composites for protecting the aircraft structure from the barely …

Bending collapse of thin-walled steel tubes is a major energy absorption mechanism in
lightweight structures, especially for crashworthiness. External composite reinforcements …

Auxetic cellular tubes are potential candidates for several engineering applications requiring
resistance to bending due to the enormous demand for lightweight and high mechanical …

The metal connector and tube of the composite drive shaft were bonded together generally.
However, the glued shafts showed numerous risks due to the instability of chemical glues …

Thin-walled hollow shapes are of great interest in many industries with weight constraints
due to their availability, low price, and strength to weight ratio. However, they are also prone …
