Includes bibliographical references (p. 305-320). This investigation examines how blast-induced imperfections at opposite sides of a square tube affect the thin-wall structure and reduce its crush load when compressed in the axial direction i.e. its energy absorption characteristics. 2014-07-31T11:17:32Z 2014-07-31T11:17:32Z 2006 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5446 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
