Main aim of this article is the qualification of large-scale producible structures for energy absorbing applications. For this reason, the considerable steps of thermo-forming as well as relevant process parameters are identified. This includes the development of an appropriate handling system for production on lab-scale. Formed three-dimensional profiles are tested under axial impact loading in a drop tower to initiate a continuous progressive crushing mode. Experimental results are analysed and evaluated regarding specific energy absorption (SEA). Numerical analysis by the explicit finite element code LS-Dyna is based on the orthotropic material model MAT54 and a four-layered shell model to implement crushing failure. Investigations show, that energy absorbing structures made of bidirectional organic sheets are suitable for automotive lightweight design.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Striewe","full_name":"Striewe, Jan Andre","id":"29413","first_name":"Jan Andre"},{"full_name":"Reuter, C.","last_name":"Reuter","first_name":"C."},{"last_name":"Sauerland","full_name":"Sauerland, K.-H.","first_name":"K.-H."},{"full_name":"Tröster, Thomas","last_name":"Tröster","first_name":"Thomas","id":"553"}],"year":"2017","user_id":"15952","title":"Manufacturing and crashworthiness of fabric-reinforced thermoplastic composites","_id":"59977","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"Elsevier BV","volume":123,"type":"journal_article","page":"501-508","date_updated":"2025-05-19T06:52:09Z","intvolume":"       123","department":[{"_id":"9"},{"_id":"149"},{"_id":"321"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0263-8231"]},"publication_status":"published","citation":{"ieee":"J.
