Abstract

This research aims to investigate the influence of cone angle and cone height on the buckling behaviour of cone-cylinder transition subjected to axial compression. This research work involves 12 specimens of cone-cylinder which have 6 cases. Each case contains 2 sample. Those 12 specimens were fabricated using 1mm mild steel sheet. SolidWorks software was used to draw the model of cone and cylinder in 2D drawing. The drawing was imported to the FlowPath software while water-jet machine was used to cut the mild steel sheet into 12 sample of cones and cylinders. Those 12 samples were undergone rolling and welding processes to form cone-cylinder shape. Axial compression test on 12 specimens of cone-cylinder were done using universal testing machine. The research conducted was to compare experimental and numerical results. The results data of all specimens were presented in this report. The experiment results indicated that as the cone angle changes, the load will also changes, either increase or decrease.
