The aim of the research is the analysis of thin-walled aluminum profiles with embossed crush initiator. Samples with square cross-section loaded dynamically were studied until the complete loss of velocity by the tup. The numerical analyses were based on an elastic-plastic material model. The material properties of AA 6063 aluminum were derived from own tests performed on a tensile machine. The analyses were conducted using the numerical method (Abaqus CAE). Using a dynamic testing machine, the obtained numerical data were verified on the basis of models showing the best improvement in crush efficiency indicators. In the experimental study, high-speed camera images were used to identify the forming plastic hinges. Based on the obtained results of experimental and numerical analysis, crush efficiency indicators were determined and compared. It was determined that the use of a passive energy absorber increases the efficiency of the crushing force by around 50%, in addition, the correct location of the crush initiator allows to gain 15%. The results of the study showed that proper placement of the crush initiator decrease PCF while increasing MCF.
