The developing world economy and the increasing income level cause the number of vehicles on the highways to increase rapidly. The increasing number of vehicles makes the highways more unsafe and increases the probability of accidents. This study is concerned with the dynamic analysis of axial and oblique compression in thin-walled tubes. Tubes under the effect of axial and oblique compression were compared with different cross-section profiles in terms of performance. Collision energy absorbed, crushing force efficiency, peak force, and velocity graphs are discussed in these performance parameters. The collision of the plates is discussed considering the speed and mass parameters that have entered the tubes using different cross-sections. Also, we developed a MOORA model integrated finite element analysis to rank the different alternative structures for different simulation cases. The MOORA model’s ranking results presented the most suitable cross-section profiles that will provide the most appropriate damping result.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
