The dynamic oblique crushing of circular thin-walled tubes with the presence of non-propagating crack was investigated numerically. The material considered was strain rate sensitive with crack located at the distal end of the tube. Major crashworthiness parameters were obtained and the analysis of the structural response for idealized and finite element crushed thin-walled tubes was also carried out. The study shows that crack initiation on energy absorbing tubes increase their crushing force efficiency under oblique impact, decrease their crushing force efficiency under axial impact and reduce their crashworthiness performance such as the energy absorption capacity and specific energy absorption under axial and oblique impact. Results of the crashworthiness parameters, deformation modes, damage morphology, stress–strain relations, absorption energy characteristics and crushing force-displacement history were obtained. Furthermore, the numerical study reveals both the desirable and undesirable consequence of crack on the overall crashworthiness performance of energy absorbing circular thin-walled tubes.

In the field of cold bending, it is necessary to use ball mandrels, especially to bend thin-walled tubes with a small radius. However, the bending process with a ball mandrel is complex and expensive, and it is easy to jam the core ball inside the tube. To solve these issues, we designed two kinds of hollow non-ball mandrel schemes with low stiffness that were suitable for the small radius bending of thin-walled tubes. We evaluated the forming quality of cold bending numerically and the influence of the hollow section length and thickness on the forming indices. Our results showed that the thickness of the hollow section has a greater influence on forming quality than the length. As the hollow section’s thickness increased, the wrinkling rate first declined by approximately 40% and then increased by above 50%. When the thickness was 11 mm in scheme 1 and 13 mm in scheme 2, the wrinkling rate reached minimum values of 1.32% and 1.50%, respectively. As the hollow section’s thickness increased, the flattening rate decreased by more than 60% and the thinning rate increased by about 40%. A multi-objective optimization of forming indices was carried out by ideal point method and grey wolf optimizer. By comparing the forming results before and after optimization, the feasibility of using the proposed hollow mandrel was proved, and the hollow mandrel scheme of standard cylinder is therefore recommended.

Motorbike shock absorbers made with a closed die employ a tube-forming process that is more sensitive than that of a solid billet, because the tube is usually too thin-walled to conserve material. During tube forming, defects such as folding and cracking occur due to unstable tube forming and abnormal material flow. It is therefore essential to understand the relationship between the appearance of defects and the number of forming steps to optimize technological parameters. Based on both finite element method (FEM) simulations and microstructural observations, we demonstrate the important role of the number and methodology of the forming steps on the material flow, defects, and metal fiber anisotropy of motorbike shock absorbers formed from a thin-walled tube. We find limits of the thickness and height ratios of the tube that must be held in order to avoid defects. Our study provides an important guide to workpiece and processing design that can improve the forming quality of products using tube forming.
