Abstract

A crash box is a passive device normally used to absorb impact energy during high-speed train accidents. Therefore, the focus of this study is to determine the ability of a circular crash box to absorb energy and its deformation pattern. The sample used was designed to have an outer diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 1.5 mm while the length was varied at 100 and 200 mm. The experiment was conducted in the frontal collision direction using a quasi-static test approach with a UTM engine moving at a speed of 10 mm/s. The results showed that the crash box designed with 200 mm length had a lower energy absorption value of 2,414 J due to the buckling mechanism.
