Figure 6.2. Experimental and foam model stress-strain curves of Alulight foams.<br />

6.2. Tension Test of 1050H14 Al Crash Box Base Material<br />

Typical tensile stress-strain curves of 1050H14 Al sheet metal, parallel and<br />

perpendicular to the extrusion direction are shown in Figure 6.3. The material shows<br />

slightly higher flow stress and lower ductility in the perpendicular to extrusion direction<br />

than in the parallel to extrusion direction. Tensile mechanical properties of the tested<br />

1050H14 sheet Al material for both directions are further listed in Table 6.3.<br />
