Abstract

This research is focused on to the capability of the square ring to absorbed energy during the compression. The purposes of this research are to observe and determine the energy absorbed by the square ring when undergoing the plastic defom1ation when compressed laterally at the two principles directions. The deformation of the square ring is also observed and result getting from the experiment is compared with the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) by using ABAQUS 6.2-4 student edition. This thesis layout begins with a sh011 introduction to the project and followed by the literature review of the relevant topics with the project. And then the experimental work has done for the project, analyses of the experiments and results of the experiments. Behaviour of the deformations during the compression also presented and the results and data were provided. A finite element analysis is presented for the purpose of providing a comparison with the experimental results. Discussions for the comparison between two methods were made and summary whether the different occurred by using the both method presented and the thesis is concluded by the conclusion and appendices.
