Abstract
:
This thesis presents an innovative device to be used as an impact energy absorber. The absorber is thin tube with a natural grass shape. The entire assembly approximates as a quarter ellipse curvature representing the energy unit. Energy is dissipated by crumpling forces generated at the top of curved tube as well as the slope of the device when the tube is displaced axially. This characterizes the device as an innovative energy absorber plus being used as energy absorber for first time ever. The results illustrated the favorable absorption capacity of the device, and demonstrated the stability, and controllability of the absorption rate.
