... by using crushable foam properties. Then, the generated foam models were sets boundary conditions for a compression test. Findings CT scans capture the actual morphology of foam sample which may directly an image based finite element foam model. The sectional views of both the models were used...

... composite materials. Therefore, this paper numerically presents the crushing performances of hybrid tubes under axial and oblique compressions. Design/methodology/approach Three important parameters are used such as fiber thicknesses, fiber orientations and oblique compression angles. Epoxy-reinforced...
