摘要: Abstract Composite steel–carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) tubes combine the benefits of stable, ductile plastic collapse mechanism steel and high strength to weight ratio fibre/resin composite, form a composite tube with energy absorption capability. This paper presents experimental results square hollow section (SHS) steel–CFRP subjected axial impact. A number different SHS geometries two matrix layouts CFRP are investigated. The dynamic compared quasi-static SHS. It is shown that crashworthiness properties load uniformity specific exceed those steel-only CFRP-only tubes. An additional advantage application technique may be retro-fitted existing tubes, capacity markedly improved by such application. theoretical method calculate mean crushing which includes effects strain-rate compare well results.
