Dynamic axial crushing of circular tubes

TL;DR: A series of axial crushing tests on steel circular cylindrical shells loaded either statically or dynamically is reported and compared with various theoretical predictions and empirical relations in this article, where a modified version of Alexander's theoretical analysis for axisymmetric, or concertina, deformations gives good agreement with the experimental results when the effective crushing distance is considered and provided that the influence of material strain rate sensitivity is retained in the dynamic crushing case.
