TL;DR: The elastic constants of pyrolytic graphite which has been highly ordered by annealing under compressive stress have been determined by ultrasonic, sonic resonance, and static test methods.
Abstract: The elastic constants of pyrolytic graphite which has been highly ordered by annealing under compressive stress have been determined by ultrasonic, sonic resonance, and static test methods. Ultrasonic tests yielded the elastic constants c11, c12, c33, c44 = 1/s44, and the stress derivative of c33. The moduli 1/s11 and c44 were determined from the free flexural resonant vibrations of bars, and the shear modulus c44 also was determined from the fundamental torsional resonance of the bars and from the resonance of compound torsion oscillators composed of thin graphite disks with steel end pieces. Static tension, compression, and torsion tests on the pyrolytic graphite yielded a complete set of compliances (s11, s12, s13, s33, and s44). The following self‐consistent set of elastic constants (cij in units of 1011 dyn/cm2; sij in 10−11 cm2/dyn) has been deduced from the results: c11 = 106±2, c12 = 18±2, c33 = 3.65±0.10, c13 = 1.5±0.5, c44 = 0.018 to 0.035, 1/s11 = 102±3, 1/s33 = 3.65±0.10, s12 = −0.0016±0.0006,...

TL;DR: In this article, a finite element analysis (FEA) of concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubes subjected to pure torsion is used to investigate the influence of important parameters that determine the ultimate torsional strength.
Abstract: In practice, concrete-filled steel tubes (CFST) are often subjected to torsion. To date, such a problem however has not been addressed satisfactorily by design codes. The present study is thus an attempt to study the torsional behaviours of concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubes. ABAQUS software is used in this paper for the finite element analysis (FEA) of CFST subjected to pure torsion. A comparison of results calculated using this modelling shows good agreement with test results. The FEA modelling was used to investigate the influence of important parameters that determine the ultimate torsional strength of the composite sections. The parametric studies provide information for the development of formulae to calculate the ultimate torsional strength, as well as the torsional moment versus torsional strain curves of the composite sections.
