Subject : SPACE TRUSSES AS IMPACT ENERGY ABSORBERS: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY 
Document Language : English 
Abstract : This study explores the performance of space trusses when used as impact energy absorbers. Space trusses exist as structural elements in civilian and military establishments. This paper reviews the most common shapes of collapsible energy absorbers and highlights the different modes of deformation of thin tubes. Experimental study includes crushing of 27 low-carbon steel space trusses of different diameters and different aspect ratios between two rigid parallel plates at quasi-static loading condition. Obtained results illustrate the deformation mode of the space trusses and highlight the relatively low efficiency of the absorbe
