Recommendations

• Collapse mode transitions of thin tubes with wall thickness, end condition and shape eccentricity
• Change in thickness in curved fold model for axial crushing of tubes
• Simplified crash models using plastic hinges and the large curvature description
• Theoretical model for elliptical tube laterally impacted by two parallel rigid plates
• On the eccentricity factor in the progressive crushing of tubes
