When the weight if a concrete member makes problems, or when the cost of the concrete is relatively high, it may be economical to use a hollow concrete member. But a hollow R.C column may have poor ductility because of the brittle failure at the inner face of the hollow R.C column. This brittle failure results from the absence of the confinement at the inner face of the hollow R.C column. To avoid this brittle failure an internally confined hollow R.C column by a steel tube was developed before. In this study, a hollow R.C column is internally confined by a corrugated steel tube instead of a general flat steel tube. And a column ductility is performed. Test results show that the energy ductility ratio of a internally confined hollow R.C column by a by a corrugated steel tube corresponds to $80\%$ of the energy ductility ratio of a general solid R.C column.

This paper presents the experimental work on fatigue life and specific fatigue strength of circular hollow sectioned steel tube and wood filled circular hollow section steel tube. Burning effect was observed in the case of circular hollow sectioned steel tube when it is subjected to Maximum bending moment of 19613.30 N-mm at 4200 rpm, but this did not happen in the case of wood filled hollow section. Statistical analysis was done based on the experimental data and relations have been built to predict the number of cycles for the applied stress or vice versa. The relations built in this paper can safely be applied for design of the fatigue life or fatigue strength of circular hollow sections and wood filled hollow sections. Results were validated by static specific bending strengths determined by ANSYS using a known applied load.

The eccentric extrusion and bending process for the forming of the curved rectangular hollow tube is newly developed. Generally the bending process of hollow tube is the secondary process followed by the extrusion process of the hollow tube from the round billet. So many defects such as wrinkling and the difference of wall thickness can be happened during the secondary bending process. In order to avoid the defects the new process named as "the eccentric extrusion and bending process" is suggested and applied to the U-bending of rectangular hollow tube. In this paper the kinematically admissible velocity field between the dies surface and the internal plug boundary surface s developed for the curving velocity. By the using of this curving velocity field the curvature of extruded products can be calculated with the parameters such as eccentricity dies length friction constant aspect ratio.

The void PC slab has a structurally reasonable cross-section by forming the hollow section of the neutral axis that is unnecessary for bending behavior. Domestic PC factories have introduced automation equipment to produce hollow PC slabs, and are achieving hollow sections through inserts. However, since the excessive initial investment cost of the PC factory is the main factor in the increase in production cost, other alternatives are needed. Therefore, in this study, when producing hollow PC slab members, by using a rubber tube as a formwork to form an internal hollow space, it is intended to contribute to securing productivity through molding various hollow shapes, making it larger, lightweight, and enabling rapid production. To implement a hollow PC slab using a rubber tube mold, the shape of a hollow cross-section in which the tube is combined was implemented by considering the shape of the rubber tube first. In addition, to secure the concrete quality of the hollow part, the finish properties of the rubber tube mold and concrete were evaluated, and the hollow PC production process was established.

This paper presents the displacement behavior safety of hollow shafts with an equivalent volume for various cross sectional area using a finite element method. The FEM results indicate that the hollow shafts with X-type or Y-type columns between outer tube, middle tube and inner tube may reduce a maximum displacement at the middle length of hollow shafts. Especially, the load-bearing column of X-type or Y-type hollow shaft is directly connected between outer tube and inner tube without a shift for reducing the vertical displacement. And increased thickness of a load-bearing column is recommended for reducing the vertical displacement and increasing the displacement behavior safety for an equivalent volume of a hollow shaft.

Internally Confined Hollow-Concrete Filled Tube(ICH-CFT) column which has two tubes on both side of concrete, inner tube and outer tube perform great seismic abilities, ductility and absorption of energy, by the tubes and the hollow part. So this study does qualitative analysis about seismic capacities depending on parameters - diameter of column, hollow ratio, thickness of tubes - by moment-curvature analysis.

The optogalvanic signals were measured using hollow cathode discharge tube with argon as buffer gas at change of discharge currents. A change of ionization rate due to electron collision causes an increase or decrease of the electric conductivity. This change in electric conductivity generates the optogalvanic signal. We conclude that optogalvanic signal has close relation with the lowest metastable atoms density at low current.

Tube hydroforming is a technology that utilizes hydraulic pressure to form a tube into desired shapes inside die cavities. Due to its advantages, such as weight reduction, increased strength, improved quality, and reduced tooling cost, single-layered tube hydroforming is widely used in industry. However in some special applications, it is necessary to produce multi-layered tubular components which have corrosion resistance, thermal resistance, conductivity, and abrasion resistance. In this study, a hollow forming process to fabricate a part from multi-layered tubes for structural purposes is proposed. To accomplish a successful hydroforming process, an analytical model that predicts optimal load path for various parameters such as tube material properties, thickness of tubes, diameter of holes and the number of holes was developed. Tubular hydroforming experiments to fabricate a hollow part were performed and the optimal loading path developed by the analytical model was successfully verified. The results show that the proposed hydroforming process can effectively produce hollow parts with multi-layered tube without defects such as wrinkling or fracture.

Hollow reinforced concrete columns confined with GFRP tubes (GRCH) are composite members composed of the outer GFRP tube, the PVC or other plastic tube as the inner tube, and the reinforced concrete between two tubes. Because of their high ductility, light weight, corrosion resistance and convenient construction, many researchers pay attention to the composite members. However, there are few studies on GRCH members under eccentric compression compared with those under axial compression. Eight hollow columns were tested under eccentric compression, including one axial compression column and seven eccentric compression columns. The failure modes and force mechanisms of GRCH members were analyzed, considering the varying in hollow ratio, reinforcement ratio and eccentricity. The test results showed that configuring steel bars can greatly increase the bearing capacity and ductility of the members. Each component (GFRP tube, concrete, steel bar) had good deformation coordination and the strength of each material could be fully utilized. But for specimens with larger eccentricity ratio (e_r=0.4) and larger hollow ratio (χ=0.55), the restraining effect of GFRP tube on concrete was significantly decreased.
