• Predicting energy absorption in a foam-filled thin-walled aluminum tube based on experimentally determined strengthening coefficient (2006, background): “Studies on the crushing behavior of foam filled tubes were particularly aimed at determining the effect of foam filling on the average crushing load and the specific energy absorption [1,2,5,8–10].”
• On the crashworthiness performance of thin-walled energy absorbers: Recent advances and future developments (2017, methodology): “In general, FFTWEA provides better crush response, higher weight efficiency, greater energy absorption and less tendency for global bending than HTWEA [181], [193], [194], [183], [195].”
• Crashworthiness design for foam filled thin-wall structures (2009, background): “(3) Empirical models have been available only for some simple sections like square [15] and circular [24], etc.”
• Crush analysis and multi-objective optimization design for circular tube under quasi-static lateral loading (2015, background): “The single objective optimization approach which considers only one objective was used in lots of studies [26, 27].”
• Energy absorption of axially compressed thin-walled square tubes with patterns (2007, background): “[14] showed that although energy absorbing efficiency of columns can be improved by foam filler, the outer cross-section dimension of the foam-filled columns must be reduced compared to non-filled columns.”
• Deformation and energy absorption of aluminum foam-filled tubes subjected to oblique loading (2012, background): “At the same time, various researches were tried out to increase the energy absorption of thin-walled tubes with the use of fillers [6–11].”
