In the past decade, particle reinforced foams have been intensively studied and applied in
diverse fields owing to their low weight-to-strength ratio, low cost, and tailorable physical …

The current contribution investigates the engineering of high strength, ductility and dam**
interpenetrating phase composites (IPCs), incorporating architected brittle ceramic …

In order to improve the crashworthiness of traditional Thin-Walled Struct, a new method for
designing multicellular tubes is presented in this paper. In this work, multicellular columns …

Inspired by the tree fractal structure, a novel hexagonal hierarchical gradient tube with axial
variable thickness (HHGAVT) is proposed and its crashworthiness performances are …

Based on the conventional star-shaped tube, a star-shaped multicellular tube was proposed
and designed; finite element modeling was carried out using Abaqus/Explicit software, and …

To improve the energy absorption characteristics of thin-walled structures under oblique
loads, a new hexagon hierarchical gradient structure (HHGS) was designed in this work …

Thin-walled structures are widely used in passive safety systems due to their excellent
lightweight and controllable progressive deformation performance. While designing to …

The study presents an extensive mechanical and computational characterisation of novel
cellular metamaterial with axisymmetric chiral structure (ACS) at different strain rates. The …

As coal mining depth increases, the characteristics of “high ground stress, high ground
temperature, high osmotic pressure, and mining disturbance” become increasingly …

This study presents a novel variable thickness nested tube consisting of circular tube and
origami tube (VTCO) designed to reduce the initial peak crushing force (PCF) under axial …
