Afficher le Résumé

A new type of composite cylinder has been the subject of extensive studies at the university of mnchester with a view to investigating its use for pressure vessels. the work carried out during the course of the present studies deals with such sandwich cylinders, and studies their use as legs for off-shore platforms and similar structures, and when used as comosite columns subjected to eccentric end compressive forces. the cross-section of these cylinders consists of outer and inner thin steel tubes and the space between them is filled with a filler material. the experimental investigation reported here include tests on 2 short steel tubes, 9 short composite cylinders, 3 bond slip specimens, and also tests on 6 full scale columns over 3.5m long. the tested columns were subjected to end eccentricities which varied from zero to 1.5 times the radius of the outer shell.
