Crashworthiness

  1. Bio-inspired Voronoi tubes improved energy absorption
    Bio-inspired Voronoi tubular structures replicate luffa sponge architecture for enhanced energy absorption. Parametric design optimization increases specific energy absorption by up to 78%.
  2. Mechanical properties and multi-objective optimization of reinforced re-entrant honeycomb sandwich structures under bending load
    Catenary-reinforced re-entrant honeycomb sandwich beams demonstrate enhanced crashworthiness, with 64.9% improvement in load-bearing capacity and 46.9% increase in energy absorption.
