This paper presents a method to create concept models for the tapered thin-walled tubes using beam elements and spring elements.Developed concept tapered beam models with different taper angles and cross sections are compared with those detailed models through impact analyses.Important crash results are recorded and compared,and the relatively good agreement is achieved between these analyses.Concept modeling steps are illustrated in detail,and a general concept modeling method for such thin-walled tubes is summarized and presented.
This paper presents a method to create concept models for the tapered thin-walled tubes using beam elements and spring elements. Developed concept tapered beam models with different tapers angles and cross sections are compared with those detailed models through impact analyzes. Important crash results are recorded and compared, and the relatively good agreement is achieved between these analyses. Confusion modeling steps are illustrated in detail, and a general concept modeling method for such thin-walled tubes is summarized and presented.
