Ellipticity ratio effects in the energy absorption of axially crushed composite tubes

In this paper, the influence of ellipticity ratio on energy absorption capability and load-carrying capacity of woven roving wrapped composite elliptical tubes has been investigated both experimentally and numerically. A series of experiments was conducted for composite elliptical tubes with ellipti...
