Abstract

See full text

An energy absorbing structural member disposed within the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle and including an outer cell and an inner cell. The outer cell of the structural member provides conventional torsional, bending and compressive rigidity necessary for such structural member. Additionally, the inner cell is adapted to plastically deform under a predetermined generally transversely imposed load, the load being substantially insufficient to deform the outer cell.
