Comparative Study of Several Energy Dissipating Devices by Abdul-Latif, Akrum

“…Large plastic lateral collapse problem of two geometrically identical hollow cylinders under compressive load is of particular interest in this work, since, the energy absorbed can be characterized by a smooth loaded deflection relation, and these tubes are also easier to build than most other devices. Cylinders of various geometrical parameters (i.e., inside/outside diameter ratios: R = di/do ranging from 0 to 0.473) are used having the same cross-sectional area and length. …”
