Abstract Traffic accidents are increasing as a result of an increasing number of vehicles and population growth in recent years. Active and passive safety systems are used in the vehicles we use today to reduce traffic accidents and prevent casualties. One of the passive security systems is the crush box (crashworthiness). It absorbs the energy generated during a crash by plastic deformation. In this study, tube height, diameter and thickness parameters were kept constant and degrees of conicity were varied 0°(flat tube),3°,7°,10°,12° and 15° The effects of conical crush boxes on axial crush behavior and their energy absorption ability, were investigated by Ls-Dyna explicit dynamic software.
