Abstract

Abstract The sleeve, conical simple composite elements and polymer foam filled composite conical element behaviour during failure are presented and discussed. The impact energy in these elements is absorbed in progressive fracture process. Possibilities of energy absorption panels – the great structures made from simple elements in a certain military and civilian field are demonstrated.
