In this paper, collapse test of thin-walled structural member widely used for automobiles is carried out under static compression load to observe the effects of cross- sectional shape and material on the energy absorbing capacity in the viewpoint of cras- hworthiness. Specimens tested consist of two sorts(Aluminium, CFRP) and configur- ations(Circular, Square) with variation in thickness. Also, comparisons of Al circular and square specimens are made to find the influence of difference in shape on the energy absorbing capability according as the thickness of specimen varies.

In this paper, the crushing tests of circular tubes under axial impact loading are conducted to investigate the energy absorption abilities. A cross head with 18kg launched by the compressed air collides against circular tubes. Circular tubes used for this experiment are Al and CFRP laminates, which have 8 ply with $15^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$. The absorbed energy unit mass and volume of the CFRP specimen with $15^{\circ}$ are higher than those of aluminum specimen. CFRP specimen having small stacking angle have better energy absorption abilities than that of large stacking angle.

Composites have wide applications in aerospace vehicles and automobiles because of the inherent flexibility in their design for improved material properties. Composite tribes in particular, are potential candidates for their use as energy absorbing elements in crashworthiness applications due to their high specific energy absorbing capacity and the stroke efficiency. Their failure mechanism however is highly complicated and rather difficult to analyze. This includes fracture in fibres, in the matrix and in the fibre-matrix interface in tension, compression and shear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the energy absorption characteristics of CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) tubes on static and impact tests. Static compression tests have been carried out using the static testing machine and impact tests have been carried out using the vertical crushing testing machine. Interlaminar number affect the energy absorption capability of CFRP tubes. Also, theoretical and experimental have the same value.

The front-end side members of automobiles absorb most of the energy in a case of front-end collision. The front-end side members are required to have a high stiffness together with easiness to collapse sequentially to absorb more impact energy. The axial static collapse test (5mm/min) was conducted by using UTM for form different types of members which have different cross section shapes; single hat, single cap, double cap, and double hat. The single hat shaped section member has the typical standard section, which the double hat shape section has a symmetry in the center to have more stiffness. As a result of the test, the energy absorbing characteristic was analyzed for different section shapes. It turned out that the change of section shape influence the absorbing energy, the mean collapse load and the maximum collapse load, and the relation between the change of section shape and the collapse mode.

In this study, in order to measure energy-absorbing charactistics in collapse test of CFRP thin-walled laminates and interpretate the cause of decreasing age when collapse test is carried out under the environments of high temperatures and hygrothermals, the moisture absorbing behavior according to the variety of orientation angel is observed and collapse characteristics is compared with the influence of high temperatures and hygrothermals. Especially, we supposed to clearly understand reationship between collapse characteristics in proportion to the variety of orientation angel and moisture absorbing. The value of the maximum loading, mean loading,rate of energy absorption energy per unit volume and mass in CFRP thin-walled laminates on the high temperatures and hygrothermals is measured lower than under no moisture absorbing. The maximum collapse loading in dynamic impact test is taken measurement lower than in static collapse test regarding compared with collapse characteristics conformity with the variety of the CFRP circular laminates in high temperatures and hygrothermals. But the absorbed energy per unit mass and volume is almost same and the biggest amount of energy is shown in the CFRP circular laminates with orientation angel of 15 .deg.. Therefore, in the case of use to CFRP circular laminates with axisymmetric mode, CFRP thin-walled structal members with orientation angel of 10 .deg. , 15 . deg. are generally useful.

The front-end side members of automobiles absorb most of the energy in a front-end collision. The front-end side members are required to have a high stiffness together with easiness to collapse sequentially to absorb more impact energy. The axial static collapse test (5mm/mim) was conducted by using UTM with respect to the single hat shaped section members which are the standard section shape of the spot welded section members, to the single cap shaped section members, to the double cap shaped section members and to the double hat shaped section members whose section shape are changed in order to give more stiffness. As a result of test, the energy absorbing characteristic was analyzed for different section shapes. That is, it was analyzed that the change of section shape influenced the absorbing energy, the mean collapse load and the maximum collapse load, and that the relation between the change of section shape and the collapse mode.

This paper concerns the crashworthiness of the widely used vehicle structure, the spot welded hat and double hat shaped section members, which are excellent on the point of the energy absorbing capacity and low production cost. The target of this paper is to analyze the energy absorption capacity of the structure against the front-end collision, and to obtain useful information for designing stage. Changing the spot weld pitches on the flanges, the hat and double hat shaped section members were tested on the axial collapse loads in impact velocities of 4.72m/sec, 6.54m/sec, 7.19m/sec and 7.27m/sec. To efficiently review the collapse characteristics of these sections, the simulation have been carried out using explicit FEM package, LS-DYNA3D. The solutions are compared with results from the impact collapse experiments.

대파고 파랑중을 항해하는 선박은 큰 선체 운동으로 인하여 수면하 단면 형상이 시시각각 크게 변하므로 자유 표면 조건, 물체 표면 조건의 비선형성에 의한 비선형 유체력의 영향이 무시될 수 없게 된다. 경우에 따라서는 선저가 파면으로부터 충격력을 받는 슬래밍 현상과 선수가 파도를 뒤집어 쓰는 청파 현상등과 같은 충격적 유체력이 선체에 가해지는 등 복잡한 문제가 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 선체를 가변 단면보의 탄성체로 이상화하여 파랑중 선체 거동을 박육 단면보 이론에 의해 정식화하고 파랑 하중으로는 수면하 단면 형상 변화에 따른 비선형 유체력과 momentum slamming이론을 이용한 유체 충격력을 고려하여 대파고 파랑 중 탄성체인 선체의 응답을 추정하는 해석 기법을 개발하여 이를 기존의 실험결과와 비교 그 타당성을 확인하고, 이의 응용으로 본 기법에 의하여 4만톤급 정유 운반선에 적용하여 정면파 및 사파중에서 파고, 파장, 선속을 파라미터로 한 수치 계산을 수행하고 여러가지 파라미터 변화에 대한 선체 구조의 동적 강도 응답 특성을 계통적으로 분석하여 보았다. 본 연구에서 개발된 동적강도 해석법은 대파고 중에서 유체력의 비선형성 및 유체 충격력까지 고려한 해석기법이므로 신구조 방식 선박에 대한 직접 설계법의 확립 뿐만 아니라 슬래밍 등에 의한 선체 절손 사고의 원인 규명에도 유용하게 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
