  • ​The dynamic response of aluminum foam-filled sandwich tubes subjected to lateral blast loading was investigated numerically using the dynamic explicit finite element method. Based on numerical simulation, the structural blast resistance was optimized with the core energy absorption and outer tube stiffness as the optimization objectives. The effects of structural geometric parameters, the relative density of the aluminum foam core layer, and blast loading conditions on the deformation patterns and energy absorption properties of aluminum foam-filled sandwich tube have been systematically investigated. The study results indicate that the deformation region of the aluminum foam-filled sandwich tube under lateral blast loading is mainly concentrated in the middle span. Energy absorption occurs through plastic deformation in the middle of the span and bending deformation at the left and right ends of the deformed region for both the inner and outer tubes. In contrast, the energy absorption of the aluminum foam core layer relies primarily on core compression. Reducing of the thickness of the outer tube or the relative density of the aluminum foam core layer can effectively improve the specific energy absorption of the structure and increase the deformation of the inner and outer tubes. The effect of the geometry parameters of the outer tube on the energy absorption properties of the structure and the deformation of the inner and outer tubes is much larger than that of the inner tube. A response surface model is constructed based on the numerical simulation results of aluminum foam-filled sandwich tube. Subsequently, multi-objective optimization is performed and the resulting Pareto front graph is provided. The determination of the wall thickness of the inner and outer tubes, together with the relative density of the aluminum foam core layers in the aluminum foam-filled sandwich tube, can be based on the specific engineering application requirements.
