Ovality’s influence in the compressive radial force: Ring width = 9,1mm
Numerical results showed that the ovality has little
influence in the compressive radial force. The maximum In order to reduce the influence of the thickness variations,
difference in collapse force is 0.9%, as illustrated in Figure 9. It the compressive load was applied in the points located in 0° and
is because the bending moment generated by the line load 180°, in this way, the points with greatest stress are located in

from a small ovality is relatively unimportant. thickness is 4,60mm.
