Optimal crashworthiness design of a spot-welded thin-walled hat section

In automotive industry, crashworthiness design is of special interest to ensure passengers safety and reduce vehicle costs. Thin-walled beams are the main energy absorbing structures in frontal and real collisions; therefore, it is important to investigate their energy-absorption and optimize their...
