Crushing Behaviors and Energy Absorption Evaluation Methods of Hexagonal Steel Tubular Columns with Triangular Cells
Under axial compression, multi-cell tubes are considered more effective than single-cell tubes. Regular hexagonal multi-cell tubes (HMT) were designed, tested, and analyzed by finite element modeling (FEM). The crushing mechanism of the HMT was revealed by compression testing and FEM. Experiments an...
