A comparison was made between high pressure die cast and wrought magnesium alloys and formed mild steel and aluminium in tensile, bending and buckling deformation. It was found that the energy absorption properties of magnesium alloys were particularly good in bending and buckling, absorbing up to 50% more energy than the aluminium and over 10 times more energy than the mild steel. The primary reason...
