The Holding Strength Of Crimps On Tubes, Aydin Cansever
The Holding Strength Of Crimps On Tubes, Aydin Cansever
Masters Theses
"The object of this thesis is to determine by analytical means and laboratory tests the holding force of various crimp methods of fastening sheet metals and special tubing. The study is conducted with heat treated Aluminum alloy 24S.T3.
The problem of joining relatively thin walled tubing of high strength material or the application of a plug to such a tube has been investigated by many manufacturers, but the literature in this field is limited and still there are many cases where a better method may prove very useful. At the suggestion of Dr. Aaron J. Miles, the author decided to …

Crimp Method Of Closure Of Small Pressure Vessels, Zafiri Bersu
Masters Theses
"The object of this thesis is to design a means of closing the ends of thin aluminum alloy tubing in the 1” O.D. to 2” O.D. by .035 to .065 inch thick sizes, so that the closure will withstand internal hydrostatic pressure sufficient to burst the tube along the longitudinal element.
The aim is to approach the ultimate mechanical efficiency possible, and at the same time to keep actual production in mind.…
Summarizing the aims of this investigation, it can be said that the objectives of this investigation are:
- To design ends for closed vessels.
- To form the designs.
- To …
