Crush zone morphology of epoxy–glass fiber–aluminium composite columnar tube due to longitudinal crushing force

Epoxy–glass fiber–aluminium composite may be of interest for energy absorption application due to their improved crashworthiness. In the current study, the hybrid–composite columnar tube specimen has been fabricated by a hand lay–up method using epoxy–glass fiber with aluminium columnar tube as a...
