Figure 2.19: Finite element <strong>and</strong> experimental results for out-<strong>of</strong>-plane vs. load diagram for<br />
columns with H100 core <strong>and</strong> (a) 25.4 mm debond (b) 38.1 mm debond (c) 50.8 mm debond.<br />
The average initial imperfection magnitude in the tested columns is 0.2 mm.<br />
Numerical <strong>and</strong> experimental results are compared in terms <strong>of</strong> instability load values listed in<br />
Table 2.4. For the finite element analysis results, a 0.2 mm initial imperfection was selected,<br />
which is consistent with experimental values. From the results listed in Table 2.4, it is seen that<br />
experimental <strong>and</strong> numerical instability loads are in good agreement. Further, it is seen that the<br />
instability load drops significantly as the debond length increases, which is well-known for any<br />
buckling problem.<br />
