Liu, Y., Crashworthiness design of multi-corner thinwalled columns Thin-Walled Structures 46 (2008)
1329 1337.
Liu (2008) presents a crashworthiness design of regular
multi-corner thin-walled columns with different types of
cross-sections and different profiles, including straight
octagonal columns and curved hexagonal columns.
In this study, the straight octagonal section columns were
first optimized, which mainly take axial crash loads
during crashes.
Next, the curved hexagonal section columns were
optimized following the same approach, which are
subject to bending moment when impact occurs.

Experimental and numerical investigation on crush
resistance of polygonal columns and angle elements
Thin-Walled Structures 57 (2012) 2536
Energy absorption characteristics of regular polygonal
columns and rhombic columns under quasi-static axial
compression were investigated by Zhang and Zhang
(2012).
The influence of a central angle of deformation mode and
mean crushing force of angle elements was studied.
A numerical investigation was also carried out to study
the crush resistance of polygonal columns and angle
elements under quasi- static and dynamic axial
compression.

Numerical investigation and design of cold-formed
steel built-up open section columns with longitudinal
stiffeners Thin-Walled Structures 89(2015)178191.
A built-up I-section with longitudinal stiffeners is
expected to have better performance to resist against local
and distortional buckling compared to conventional builtup I-section by simply connecting two plain channels
back-to-back.
Hence Zhang and Young10 (2015) did non-linear finite
element analysis to investigate the behaviour of coldformed steel built-up open section columns with edge and
web stiffeners.
