During a crash event, significant energy must be absorbed by kinetic energy-dissipating systems through material plastic deformation. Such systems are thin-walled steel tubes installed in specific places of the vehicle body to reduce the amount of forces transferred to occupants to a required safety limit and to minimise the cargo damage. The present paper deals with the improvement of the |
