摘要
The objective of this paper is to advance the design of slender steel tubes by developing a practical approach for utilizing high-resolution measurements of geometric imperfections to estimate the buckling location and strength of such tubes in bending. This approach includes a novel measure of imperfection severity that is designed to be insensitive to noise. The ability of this measure to predict buckling behavior of slender tubes in bending is assessed through comparison with eight large-scale tests, and, for this set of data, the predictions are promising. This study is intended to be a starting point in the development of a simple, but accurate, design method to quantify the impact of imperfections on the buckling behavior of slender tubes.
