The present paper deals with the crushing characteristics of double hatted-section tube used in body structure of passenger car. Being crushed, a double hatted-section tube shows symmetric or antisymmetric buckling mode according to section aspect ratio and flange size. Zone of buckling mode is shown by numerical methods. It is supposed that crippling behavior of double hatted-section tube corresponds with rectangular tube without flange. Crippling plate coefficient is also calculated when section aspect ratio of tube is higher than one.

It is important to satisfy the requirements and standards for the protections of passengers in a car accident. There are lots of studies on the crushing energy absorption of structure members in automobiles. We have investigated collapse characteristics and moisture absorption movements of CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) hat shaped sectional members when CFRP laminates are under the hygrothermal environment. The absorbed energy, mean collapse load and deformation mode were analyzed for side members which absorbed most of the collision energy. Therefore we have made a static collapse experiment to research into the difference of absorbed energy and deformation mode between moisture absorbed specimen and non-moisture absorbed specimen.

CFRP composite material has the superior specific strength and rigidity compared to metallic materials, and is widely adopted in the various fields. However, CFRP composite material has the weakness in hygrothermal and crash environment. Especially, moisture ingress into composite material under hygrothermal environment can change molecule arrangement and chemical properties. In addition, interface characteristics and material component properties can be degraded. A collapse experiment has been made to research the differences of absorbed energy and deformation mode between absorbed specimens of moisture and non-moisture. As a result of this study, the effect of moisture absorption and impact loads of about 30~50% reduction in strength are shown.

The fundamental and widely used spot welded sections of automobiles (hat and double hat-shaped section members) absorb most of the energy in a front-end collision. The sections were tested on axial static(10mm/min) and quasi-static(1000mm/min) loads. Based on these test results, specimens with various thickness, shape and spot weld pitch on the flange have been tested with impact velocity(7.19m/sec) the same as a real life car clash. Characteristics of collapse have been reviewed and a structure of optimal energy absorbing capacity is suggested.

The spot-welded automotive side member which has a hat-shaped section and a double hat shaped section has been tested on the axial static(10mm/min) and quasi-static(50mm/min) compressing load. The collapse characteristics of automotive sections have been reviews on shift on shape and in width of the spot-voiding on the flange. On the basis of the results of tests and reviews, the optimum energy absorption capacity of the structure has been studied.

An elastic buckling analysis of single hat rectangular tubes is carried out. Based on Bleich's buckling theory for elastically restrained plates, a method to estimate the compliance of the supporting plates for the buckling plate and to compensate the effects of compression force acting on the supporting plates is offered. Necessary assumptions which enable an analytic approach to be used are also given. The present results are compared with the finite element results obtained from ABAQUS.

The widely used spot welded section members of vehicles are structures which absorb most of the energy in a front-end collision. In front-end collision, sufficiently absorbed in the front parts, the impact energy does not reach the passengers. Simultaneously, the frame gets less damaged. This structures have to be very stiff, but collapse progressively to absorb the kinetic energy as expected. In the view of stiffness, the double-hat shaped section member is stiffer than the hat shaped section member. In progress of collapse, the hat shaped section member is collapsing progressively, but the double-hat shaped section member does not due to stiffness. An analysis on the hat shaped section member was previously completed. This paper concerns the collapse characteristic of the double-hat shaped section member. In the program system presented in this study, an explicit finite element code, LS-DYNA3D is adopted for simulating complicate collapse behavior of double hat shaped section members with respect to spot weld pitches. And comparing with the results from the quasi-static and impact experiment, the simulation has been verified.
