Origami Beam: Enhanced Energy Absorption by Suvojit Baidya is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper introduces a novel energy absorption structure called the origami beam, which is a pre-folded thin-walled beam designed to enhance energy absorption during lateral impacts. Numerical simulations reveal that the origami beam can trigger new collapse modes, resulting in greater plastic deformation and improved energy absorption compared to conventional beams. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of origami patterns in modifying the structural behavior of thin-walled beams for applications such
