Energy Absorption of Hybrid Composite Tubes under Axial Compression

Abstract:

The effect of specific absorbed energy on pultruded profile and thin-walled aluminum composite square cross-section tubes were studied via experimentally. The type of strand mat E-glass reinforced polyester resin was conducted in this study. The specimens of square pultruded and thin-walled wrapped strand mat E-glass composite were compressed under quasi-static of obliquely loadings from the top moving plat platen. For each specimen of composite tubes, triggering mechanism was applied on frontal end top of the tube to obtain the progressive failure throughout the crash event. The pultruded profile tube wall-thicknesses of 2.1 mm and thin-walled aluminum 1.9 mm thickness wrapped 3 layer woven fabric were examined, and the effects of crushing behaviors and failure modes were discussed. Results showed that the tubes energy absorption capability was affected significantly by different type of composite made in term of internal energy.
