Optimization of foam-filled double circular tubes under axial and oblique impact loading conditions
Abstract This paper presents the multi objective optimization of foam-filled tubular tubes under pure axial and oblique impact loadings. In this work, the double circular tubes, whose bottom is the boundary condition, while at the top, is the impacted rigid wall; with respect to the axis of the tubes. The optimal crash parameter solutions, namely the minimum peak crushing force and the maximum specific energy absorption, are constructed by the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II and the Radial Basis Function. Different configurations of structures, such as empty empty double tube (EET), foam filled empty double tube (FET), and foam filled foam filled double tube (FFT), are identified for their crashworthiness performance indicators. The results show that the optimal foam filled foam filled tube (FFT) had better crashworthiness than the others under pure axial loading. However, the foam filled empty tube (FET) was the best choice for structures under an oblique loading.
Highlights Numerical simulations of foam-filled double circular tubes with different configurations under pure axial and oblique impact loadings. SEA and PCF prediction under different impact angles using Radial Basis Function metamodels. Multiobjective optimization design (MOD) of axially and obliquely foam-filled double circular tubes. Crashworthiness comparison of foam-filled circular double tubes under pure axial and oblique impacts.
