This paper presents a new product, a glass laminate aluminium-reinforced epoxy (GLARE)-based thin-walled structure with a stiffener in the form of a longitudinal rib. The stiffening rib in an outer metallic layer of a GLARE-based panel was fabricated by the incremental sheet forming technique and Alclad 2024-T3 aluminium alloy sheets were used as adherends. The strength properties of the adhesive joint between the layers of the fibre metal laminates (FMLs) were determined in a uniaxial tensile test, peel drum test, tensile/shear test and short-beam three-point-bending test. Two variants of FMLs were considered, with an adhesive film and without an adhesive film between the adherends and the epoxy/glass prepreg. The FMLs were tested at three different temperatures that corresponded to those found under real aircraft operating conditions, i.e., −60 °C, room temperature and +80 °C. It was found that the temperatures do not affect the tensile strength and shear strength of the FMLs tested. However, there was a noticeable increase in the stiffness of samples stretched at reduced temperature. An additional adhesive film layer between the adherends and the glass/epoxy prepreg significantly improves the static peeling strength of the joint both at reduced and at elevated temperatures. A clear increase in the critical force at which buckling occurs has been clearly demonstrated in the uniaxial compression test of GLARE-based rib-stiffened panels. In the case of GLARE-based rib-stiffened panels, the critical force averaged 15,370 N, while for the non-embossed variant, it was 11,430 N, which translates into a 34.5% increase in critical force.

Thin-walled structures have been widely used in various structural applications asimpact energy absorbing devices. During an impact situation, thin-walled tubesdemonstrate excellent capability in absorbing greater energy through plastic deformation. In this paper, a review of thin-walled tubes as collapsible energy absorbers is presented.As a mean of improving the impact energy absorption of thin-walled tubes, the influence of geometrical parameters such as length, diameter and wall thickness on the response of thin-walled tubes under compression axial loading are briefly discussed. Several design improvements proposed by previous researchers are also presented. The scope of this review is mainly focus on axial deformation under quasi-static and dynamic compressive loading. Other deformations, such as lateral indentation, inversion and splitting are considered beyond the scope of this paper. This review is intended to assist the future development of thin-walled tubes as efficient energy absorbing elements.
