The Effect of Automotive Side Member Filling on Car Frontal Impact Performance

To achieve lightweight design while retaining its crash performance, aluminum alloy component filled with foam has been adopted as an alternative lightweight material. In the paper, the effect of different type of filling on the automotive side member is studied. Impact performance is compared in te...
