Lightweighting
An important industrial development at present is lightweighting, or the reduction of weight of a structure or fabricated product to minimise the amount of material used whilst retaining the integrity of a structure, and where appropriate reducing emissions.
WorldAutoSteel offers information on the use of steel in automobiles, and included is information on the work done under the Ultra Light Steel Auto Body (ULSAB), and Ultra Light Steel Auto Closures (ULSAC) programmes, and includes a video on the potential for vehicle lightweighting , comparing aluminium with advanced high strength steels.
