Abstract
In automotive industry, foam-filled structures have aroused increasing interest because of lightweight and capacity
of energy absorption. Two types of foam filled thin walled structures such as the uniform foam filled (UF) and the
functionally graded foam (FGF). To improve crashworthiness performance, FGF are used to fill structures, unlike
existing uniform foam materials. In addition, by seeking for an optimal design systematically, some computational
optimization signifies a more effective tool to find the best crashworthiness design of structures,. This paper will an
exhaustive review of the previous studies of simulation-based optimization such as metamodels, objective functions,
design variables, design of experiments, optimization techniques of crashworthiness of tubes.
