Impact Strength and Response Behavior of CFRP Thin Belt

In order to absorb side impact energy in an accident of automobiles, an impact beam is useful and its conventional type is made of steel. CFRP belts having lighter weight and higher tensile strength are recently developing for substituting steel impact beams. This paper presents the experimental and...

Zusammenfassung:In order to absorb side impact energy in an accident of automobiles, an impact beam is useful and its conventional type is made of steel. CFRP belts having lighter weight and higher tensile strength are recently developing for substituting steel impact beams. This paper presents the experimental and numerical results of CFRP thin belts under the impact loads and these results show a higher possibility of CFRP thin belt instead of a steel impact beam.
