Crashworthiness of Composite Thin-Walled Structures

By A G Mamalis, M B Ioannidis, D E Manolakos, et al.

During the last decade much of the attention given to crashworthiness and crash energy management has centered on composite structures. Crashworthiness of Composite Thin-Walled Structural Components provides an in-depth, illustrated survey of both the technology and applications of this growing field. The authors introduce the concepts, terms and definitions of crashworthiness, discuss the failure mechanisms and energy absorption capability of composites in various geometries, and provides a full source of references.
