The crashworthiness behavior of AISI 1020 mild steel thin-walled tube under axial loading has been studied. The influence effects of different model’s cross-section, as well as model length on the crashworthiness behavior of thin-walled tube, are investigated. The model was placed on loading platform under axial loading with impact velocity of 5 m/s to obtain the deformation results of each model under quasi-static loading. The results showed that model undergoes different deformation mode exhibits different energy absorption performance. }, journal = {International Journal of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering}, volume = {10}, number = {8}, year = {2016}, pages = {1170 - 1175}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10007073}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/116}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 116, 2016}, }
