Abstract

A comprehensive numerical study on the three point bending behavior of Aluminum foam-filled stainless steel tube has been performed. Aluminium alloy foams with various densities were produced and their mechanical properites were evaluated. Finite element(FE) analysis of three point bending test was performed to evaluate bending behavior of foam filled cylindrical structures. Results showed that foam filling offered remarkable increase of bending resistance and enhanced the crashworthiness of the structure. It turned out to prevent the inward fold formation at the compression flange, resulted into the multiple propagating folds and increased the load carrying capacity.
