Abstract
Axial crush tests on Uniform Thickness (UT) and Functionally Graded Thickness (FGT) tubes have been performed for external inversion process, and crashworthiness performance, and benefits of FGT tubes compared with their UT equivalents. Furthermore, in order to find detail verification about crush process of FGT tubes, Finite element (FE) models developed using explicit FE code under axial loading. Then, these FE models validated by experimental tests to ensure that they can accurately predict the responses of FGT inversion tubes. Our study shows that tube thickness distribution, die radius, and coefficient of friction between die and tube have great influence on the responses of FGT tubes inversion. The results give new design ideas to improve crashworthiness performance of inversion tubes.

期刊介绍:
"Power System Technology" (monthly) was founded in 1957. It is a comprehensive academic journal in the field of energy and power, supervised and sponsored by the State Grid Corporation of China. It is published by the Power System Technology Magazine Co., Ltd. of the China Electric Power Research Institute. It is publicly distributed at home and abroad and is included in 12 famous domestic and foreign literature databases such as the Engineering Index (EI) and the National Chinese Core Journals.
The purpose of "Power System Technology" is to serve the national innovation-driven development strategy, promote scientific and technological progress in my country's energy and power fields, and promote the application of new technologies and new products. "Power System Technology" has adhered to the publishing characteristics of combining "theoretical innovation with applied practice" for many years, and the scope of manuscript selection covers the fields of power generation, transmission, distribution, and electricity consumption.
