Abstract: An experimental study was performed to analyze the dynamic buckling behavior of stiffened composite tubes. The structures analyzed were filament-wound carbon-fiber/epoxy composite tubes with press-fitted compliant and rigid aluminum ring stiffeners. The ring thicknesses were… read more here.
