    Axial Compression of Aluminum Closed-Cell Foam Filled and Empty Aluminum Tubes
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2002) Toksoy, Ahmet Kaan; Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Aluminum closed-cell foam filled aluminum tubes with a polyester bonding layer between foam core and tube wall have been compression tested in ord er to detemiine specific energy absorption for the crash box applications. Aluminum foam, empty and foam filled tubes without bonding layer were also tested for comparison purposes, Preliminary results have shown that interaction effect has been found in foam filled tubes with polyester layer. In order to identify deforiDation mechanisms involving with tube deforination, deformed empty and foam filled tubes crosssections were microscopically analyzed and operative defoimationmechanisms were determined.

    Alüminyum Kapalı Hücreli Köpüklerin Toz Metalürjisi Yönetimi ile Üretilmesi
    (Pamukkale Üniversitesi, 2004) Güden, Mustafa; Güden, Mustafa; Kavi, Halit; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Son şekle yakın Alüminyum kapalı hücreli yapılar, örneğin otomobil tampon ve kapıları, tabletlerin köpükleştirilmesi metodu olarak bilinen toz metalürjisi yöntemi ile hazırlanmaktadır. Metot tozların karıştırılması, sıcak preslenmesi ve elde edilen toz tabletlerin kullanılan alaşımın ergime sıcaklığının üstüne ısıtılması suretiyle köpükleştirilmesi süreçlerinden oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, toz metalürjisi metodu ile kapalı hücreli alüminyum köpük metal üretim parametreleri ve üretim sonucu ortaya çıkan mikroyapılar, köpüğün yoğunluğuna bağlı mekanik özellikleri ile birlikte özetlenmektedir. Son olarak, alüminyum köpük metalin yuvarlak tüplerde dolgu malzemesi olarak kullanımına yönelik deneysel çalışmaların sonuçları otomobil ezilme kutularında kullanımına yönelik örnek olarak verilmiştir.

    Sic-Particulate Aluminum Composite Foams Produced by Powder Compacts: Foaming and Compression Behavior
    (Springer Verlag, 2003) Elbir, Semih; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Güden, Mustafa; Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.; Yılmaz, Selahattin; 03.02. Department of Chemical Engineering; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The foaming behavior of SiC-particulate (8.6% by volume) aluminum composite powder compacts contained Titanium Hydride blowing agent was investigated by heating above the melting temperature (750°C) in a pre-heated furnace. Aluminum powder compacts were also prepared and foamed using similar compaction and foaming parameters in order to determine the effect of SiC-particulate addition on foaming and compression behavior. The linear expansions of the compacts at various furnace holding times were ex situ determined. Optical and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to characterize prepared and deformed foams microstructures. The SiC-particulate addition was found to increase the linear expansion and reduce the extent of the liquid metal drainage and cell coarsening of the aluminum compacts. The composite foam samples also showed higher compressive stresses, but a more brittle behavior as compared with aluminum foams.

    Finite Element and Coupled Finite Element/Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics Modeling of the Quasi-Static Crushing of Empty and Foam-Filled Single, Bitubular and Constraint Hexagonal- and Square-Packed Aluminum Tubes
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Aktay, Levent; Kröplin, Bernd Helmut; Güden, Mustafa; Güden, Mustafa; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The quasi-static axial crushing behavior of empty and Al and polystyrene foam-filled Al single, bitubular and multi-tube-packed (hexagonal and square packing) configurations were investigated experimentally and numerically. Tubes were modeled using finite element and coupled finite element/smooth particle hydrodynamics. The numerical specific absorbed energy (SAE) values, deformation patterns, load values and number of folds formed were found to show agreements with those of experiments. Among the tested tube configurations only hexagonal- and square-packed empty tube designs showed increased SAE values over that of single empty tube. Furthermore, foam-filled multi-tube designs both hexagonal- and square-packed designs were found energetically more efficient than Al foam-filled single tubes at similar foam filler densities. The increased SAE values of multi-tubes were attributed to the frictional forces of the multi-tube designs and constraining effect of the die walls accommodating the tubes.
