Description
"Materials and Structures for Energy Absorption" covers the subjects of impact, and the energy absorbing capabilities of materials and structures. This is an ever-present concern for engineers in a wide range of industries including automotive, aerospace, shipping, road and rail transport, power generation and a variety of military applications. Modern solutions to energy absorption usually carry a weight premium and often involve combinations of materials made into complex structures by novel manufacturing methods to achieve optimum performance. Considering real world requirements for energy absorption, the subjects addressed in this volume include: vehicle crashworthiness; impact of modelling structures; safety with design; design and performance; hybrid composite structures; and development of autobody sheet materials. "Materials and Structures for Energy Absorption" presents current knowledge and technical innovations; from experts in the field, over a wide range of industries and application areas; to practising professionals who need access to state-of-the-art solutions.
