dc.description.abstractThe crushing behavior of E-glass/polyester and E-glass/vinyl ester pultruded tubes has been found to be significantly different for tulip triggered specimens as compared with bevel triggered specimens. Up to 100% more energy per unit weight was absorbed by tulip triggered tubes. In addition, the crushing was more controlled and predictable with the tulip trigger. The morphology of the material in the crushing zone differed in the amount and the pattern of fracture. The fracture pattern and crushing behavior initiated by both triggers were found not to change during crushing. The difference in crushing appeared to arise from the different abilities of the tubes to support load because of the different geometry of individual load-carrying structures that resulted from triggering.en_US
