Thin-walled structures have been widely used in various structural applications asimpact energy absorbing devices. During an impact situation, thin-walled tubesdemonstrate excellent capability in absorbing greater energy through plastic deformation. In this paper, a review of thin-walled tubes as collapsible energy absorbers is presented.As a mean of improving the impact energy absorption of thin-walled tubes, the influence of geometrical parameters such as length, diameter and wall thickness on the response of thin-walled tubes under compression axial loading are briefly discussed. Several design improvements proposed by previous researchers are also presented. The scope of this review is mainly focus on axial deformation under quasi-static and dynamic compressive loading. Other deformations, such as lateral indentation, inversion and splitting are considered beyond the scope of this paper. This review is intended to assist the future development of thin-walled tubes as efficient energy absorbing elements.

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the mechanical behaviour of self-compacting concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular (SCCFTST) stub columns loaded in axial compression to failure. Four specimens were tested to study the effect of diameter to wall thickness (D/t) ratios on the ultimate load, failure modes, and ductility of the columns. Confinement of the steel tube to concrete was also addressed. The failure modes, load versus displacement curves, and load versus strain curves were examined in detail. The experimental results showed that the ultimate state is reached when severe local buckling and rupture occurred on the steel tubes, and the concrete near the rupture has been crushed. The columns with larger D/t ratios appeared more local buckling, and its location is more close to the end of the columns. The SCCFTST stub columns with smaller D/t ratios show higher ultimate load and better ductility, and the steel tubes can exert higher confinement to the concrete.
