Experimental study of energy‑absorbing and support characteristics of glass microsphere-filled steel tube columns under uniaxial compression

Abstract An innovative energy-absorbing and bearing structure was proposed, which incorporated the coupling of glass microspheres with a metal tube. Glass microsphere-filled steel tube (GMFST) column, consisting of external steel tube and inner glass microspheres, was expected to give full play to t...
