Evaluation of crashworthiness of a carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) ladder frame in a body-on-frame vehicle - Park CK, Kan CDS, Hollowell WT.

This paper investigates the opportunities of lightweighting a steel ladder frame, which is a primary structural component in a body-on-frame vehicle, using a carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite. The finite element (FE) model of a 2007 Chevrole...
