4.5.4. Uniaxial Compression Testing of Empty and Partially Foam<br />

Filled Crash Box with Montage Plates<br />

The uniaxial compression testing of empty and partially foam filled <strong>crash</strong> box<br />

with montage plates were performed at the deformation speed, 5 mm min -1 . In these<br />

samples a 2 mm thick steel plate were fixed to the upper <strong>section</strong> and a thicker steel<br />

block with perfectly parallel surface was positioned at the bottom of the <strong>crash</strong> box as<br />

shown in Figure 4.14. The upper steel plate was fixed to the upper montage plate with<br />

the bolts. These tubes were also filled with two different aluminum foam relative<br />

densities, 0.11 and 0.15. The test sample coding of the tested <strong>boxes</strong> with montage<br />

plates is listed in Table 4.2.<br />
