Abstract

Energy absorbing component of bumper equipped at the front end of a car, is one of the most important automotive parts for crash energy absorption. It usually was made a mental thin walled tube. In the paper, automobile energy absorbing component at low-velocity impact was studied by using Finite Element Method. The FE model of the tube was builded by comparing the five cross section shape . Results show that the impact peak load and maximum energy absorption have certain effect to energy-absorbing component with different the cross section shape.
